The natural history and appropriate treatment of giant liver haemangioma remain poorly defined. diagnostic strategy the results a longitudinal study 78 such lesions are described. Sixteen resected patients 62 with asymptomatic haemangiomas were entered into follow-up programme consisting clinical assessment abdominal ultrasonography every 6 months. Resection was considered only for symptomatic (14 cases) rapidly growing (two cases). mean 36 months 55 observed group. Surgery permanently...
Background. Pancreas transplantation (PTx) with portal-enteric drainage (PED) has been associated difficulties in respect to arterial anastomosis and graft accessibility for percutaneous biopsy. We describe a new technique that circumvents these difficulties. Methods. Between April 2001 2004, total of 113 recipients were scheduled PTx PED. The superior mesenteric vein was approached from the right retroperitoneal aspect instead anterior transmesenteric route. pancreas eventually placed...
The effect of albendazole was studied in 12 patients with cystic hydatid disease (CHD) the liver. Six received continuously for 6 months, while courses 4 weeks a 2 week drug-free interval between cycles. continuous therapy proved successful, stable involution at follow-up 24 treated discontinuous showed improvement or relapse. In our experience, more effective and can be considered to suitable alternative percutaneous uncomplicated liver disease, as an initial treatment.
Subcapsular renal hematoma (SRH) is a challenging condition, which may jeopardize kidney function or constitute life-threatening event. This particularly true in single-kidney patients, such as kidney-transplant recipients. SRH exert an excessive pressure on the surrounding parenchyma, thus resulting hypoperfusion and ischemia, with high risk of acute failure graft loss. Moreover, precede overt rupture subsequent hemorrhage hemodynamic instability. The indication to interventional management...
