PURPOSE: Sacral nerve modulation appears to offer a valid treatment option for some patients with fecal incontinence and functional defects of the internal anal sphincter or striated muscle. METHODS: Sixteen (4 males; mean age, 51.4 (range, 27-79) years) intact surgically repaired (n=1) underwent permanent sacral stimulation implant. Cause was traumatic in two patients, associated disorders included scleroderma (2 patients) spastic paraparesis (1 patient); eight (50 percent) also had urinary...
Carcinoids of the appendix continue to be interest, despite their low incidence. There is still considerable controversy surrounding these tumors, especially with regard role right hemicolectomy in surgical management. The aim this work was explicate current therapeutic knowledge and review criteria for indications appendectomy or hemicolectomy.The records patients who underwent appendectomies from 1990 2000 were analyzed. Seven included study. clinical data reviewed demographic details,...
We studied the role of telecardiology in reducing unnecessary hospital admissions patients with suspected life-threatening cardiac events (CEs), evaluated by general practitioners (GPs). Over one month, 456 consecutive (mean age 65 years, SD 19) complaining typical (10%) or atypical (42%) chest pain, palpitations (19%), dyspnoea (19%) syncope were enrolled. Before teleconsultation, GPs recorded their own opinion (based on clinical evaluation only) about presence a CE. Following transmission...
Major surgical societies advised using non-operative management of appendicitis and suggested against laparoscopy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hypothesis is that a significant reduction in number emergent appendectomies was observed pandemic, restricted to complex cases. study aimed analyse pandemic on national basis compare it same period previous year. This multicentre, retrospective, observational investigating outcomes patients undergoing appendectomy March-April 2019 vs 2020....
Re-approximation of the rectal muscles along midline is recommended by some groups as a rule for incisional and ventral hernia repairs. The introduction laparoscopic repair has generated debate because it not aimed at restoring abdominal wall integrity but instead aims just to bridge defect. Whether restoration real impact on patient mobility questionable, available literature provides no definitive answer. present study compare functional results bridging with those re-approximation muscle...
Biofeedback training is proposed as rehabilitative for patients with permanent colostomoies to help them achieve fecal continence. The results of a preliminary study 18 are reported.
Abstract Background An emerging hypothesis is that the activation of innate immunity in muscle patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) implicated development and progression wasting cachexia. We previously observed Toll‐like receptor‐4 (TLR4) its downward NF‐κB‐dependent pro‐inflammatory pathways are activated CKD muscle. It however unknown if TLR4 can activate TLR4/NOD, LRR, pyrin domain‐containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome pathway, which cardiovascular frailty, clinical settings...
