Cholecystectomy, which affects metabolism storage bile acid, a potential risk factor dementia. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> We aimed to determine whether cholecystectomy increases dementia onset in older adults, regardless subtype. <title>METHODS</title> This retrospective observational study used data from Korean Health...
Purpose: This study was undertaken to assess the feasibility of early feeding in patients that have undergone emergency gastrointestinal (GI) surgery.Materials and Methods: The authors retrospectively reviewed 84 underwent bowel resection and/or anastomosis from March 2008 December 2011.Patients with severe shock, intestinal ischemia, sustained perforation, or short syndrome were excluded.Patients divided into (group E; n=44) late L; n=40) group according time commencement.Early defined as...
The aim of this study was to identify the prognostic factors and compare long-term outcomes staged hepatectomy transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for patients with spontaneous rupture hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).This is a multicenter, retrospective analysis newly diagnosed ruptured HCC. To overall survival between group TACE alone group, we performed propensity score-matching adjust significant differences in patient characteristics. factors, clinical characteristics at time diagnosis...
Background This study investigated the outcomes of kidney transplantation (KT) over a 16-year period in Korea and identified risk factors for graft failure using nationwide population-based cohort. Methods We Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Information Database. insurance claims patients who underwent KT between 2002 2017 were analyzed. Results The data from 18,331 their first reviewed. percentage antithymocyte globulin (ATG) induction continuously increased 2.0% to 23.5%...
Almost all Koreans are covered by mandatory national health insurance and required to undergo screening at least once every 2 years. We aimed develop a machine learning model predict the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) based on results claim data.The National Health Insurance Service-National Screening database was used for this study (NHIS-2020-2-146). Our cohort consisted 417,346 examinees between 2004 2007 without cancer history, which split into training test cohorts...
Robotic hernia repair has increased in popularity since the introduction of da Vinci robots (Intuitive Surgical). However, we lack quantitative analyses its potential benefits. Herein, report our initial experience with robotic transabdominal preperitoneal (R-TAPP) inguinal repair.We retrospectively reviewed data from patients who underwent R-TAPP a prosthetic mesh using platform. Data on patient characteristics and surgical outcomes were also collected.Twenty-one (including 20 male [95.2%])...
Advances in patient care and immunosuppressive drugs have improved graft survival, resulting an increase kidney transplantation (KT); however, persistent immunosuppression is thought to cause late occurrence of cancer. This population-based study consisted a total 14,842 patients whose data from the years 2002 2017 were collected National Health Information Database South Korea. Malignancies occurred 7.6% KT patients. Prostate thyroid cancers most common males females, respectively. From...

However, there are controversies in emergency situation. The aim of this study was to assess safety patients underwent (GI) Methods We reviewed GI surgery by single surgeon from March 2008 December 2010, retrospectively. defined when started within 72 hours operation.

To compare the surgical outcomes of peritoneal irrigation versus suction alone during laparoscopic appendectomy and to identify risk factors site infection in patients with uncomplicated acute appendicitis.Data from appendicitis between January 2014 March 2016 were reviewed. We compared groups regard following parameters: postoperative complication incidence rate, length hospital stay, operation time, time flatus, diet commencement, duration antibiotic.A total 578 underwent for appendicitis....
Purpose: Highly sensitized patients with a high level of panel reactive antibody (PRA) experience more episodes antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and poorer graft survival than non-sensitized patients.Rituximab is well-known monoclonal anti-CD20 that causes the depletion B lymphocytes.The aim this study was to compare rituximab-administered non-administered group highly recipients.Methods: Forty-three kidney recipients PRA ≥50% were included.Sixteen (group R) received one dose rituximab at 2...
This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes for single-incision laparoscopic appendectomy (SILA) and conventional (CLA) the treatment of acute appendicitis assess feasibility performing SILA in a small hospital with limited surgical instruments staff experience.Retrospective record review identified 133 patients who underwent from December 2013 April 2015. Patients were categorized according type performed (SILA or CLA). Patient characteristics compared between 2 groups. Postoperative...
Obturator hernias (OHs) are a rare cause of bowel obstruction that requires immediate surgical intervention to prevent morbidity and mortality. Patients with OHs present acute intestinal secondary incarceration, high mortality rate due delayed diagnosis treatment. Although several approaches have been reported, standard approach for OH treatment has not yet established. Here, we report the case 74-year-old woman who presented bilateral OHs. The patient at our institution pain in left lower...
