The present study aimed to investigate the effects of apelin and leptin on renal functions following ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). A total 32 rats were divided into four groups. control group was not induced with ischemia, but administered normal saline intraperitoneally. Normal saline, intraperitoneally I/R, (I/R+A) (I/R+L) groups, in turn for three days prior surgical procedure. Blood urine samples obtained after 24 h reperfusion, scintigraphic examination performed. Renal damage evaluated...

Laparoscopic surgery combined with natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) avoids extra incisions to the abdominal wall and causes less pain fewer wound complications, together a shorter recovery reduced time off from work. However, size of is limiting factor for NOSE. We describe novel method colorectal that reduces diameter provides an easier through vagina. A totally laparoscopic right hemicolectomy cecal adenocarcinoma 5 cm in was performed on 62-year-old woman. Ileocolic anastomosis...

Cyclosporin A (CsA) is the most widely used immunosuppressive drug for preventing graft rejection and autoimmune disease. However, therapeutic treatment induces several side effects such as nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, hypertension, hepatotoxicity. Curcumin has been successfully a potent antioxidant against many pathophysiological states. This experimental study was performed to test, during CsA treatment, alterations of curcumin properties CsA-induced endothelial dysfunction. Rats were...

We aimed to compare the direct trocar insertion (DTI) and Veress needle (VNI) techniques in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.Eighty-one patients scheduled for surgery at Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey, were included this study. In 39 patients, a bladed retractable nonoptical was used DTI, VNI performed 42 patients. Intraoperative access-related parameters compared. Data analyzed with Student's t chi-squared tests. A P value of <.05 considered significant.Both groups had comparable...

BACKGROUND:Idiopathic noncirrhotic portal hypertension (INCPH) is a rare disease characterized by increased venous pressure in the absence of cirrhosis and other causes liver diseases. The aim present study was to our results using portosystemic shunt surgery patients with INCPH. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Patients who had been referred Liver Transplantation Institute for transplantation undergone from January 2010 December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients INCPH procedure included...

Natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) is an ever-evolving advanced laparoscopic technique. NOSE minimizes surgical injury, involving a low risk of wound complications, fewer incisional hernias, faster recovery and less postoperative pain. Laparoscopic gastrectomy combined with procedure that can potentiate the advantages both minimal invasive techniques. We aim to demonstrate feasibility subtotal transvaginal in gastric cancer.A 72-year-old woman 2cm adenocarcinoma antrum was treated by...

Thyroid pathologies accompanying primary hyperparathyroidism: a high rate of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma Objective: and non-medullary cancer often accompany hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).The purpose this study was to examine the association between diseases, especially micropapillary cancer, with PHPT.Material Methods: Data regarding 46 patients who were operated on diagnosis PHPT at Inonu University Faculty Medicine, General Surgery Clinic June 2009 March 2013 retrospectively...

The realisation of the high chemical potential fruits Rosa species, which were initially used for seasonal consumption and in treatment a wide range ailments, led to an increase research into possibilities use. In order determine usage these their various properties, it is necessary know about antioxidant activity, amount vitamins, phenolic flavonoid substances within rose species. this study, naturally growing ecological friendly villosa L. subsp. mollis (R1), subp. (R2), pimpinellifolia...

Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. There ongoing research to find an effective preventive or treatment agent. We aimed evaluate the effects of apelin 13 (AP) on intestinal I/R in a rat model.Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 6-8 weeks weighing 280±20 g were equally divided into three groups (control, I/R+AP). The control group underwent superior mesenteric artery (SMA) mobilization alone without any clamping. In I/R+AP...

Endoscopic esophageal stent placement is used to treat benign strictures, perforations, fistulas and for palliative therapy of cancer. Although safe effective method, complications are increasing the morbidity mortality rate. We aimed present a patient with small bowel perforation as consequence migrated stent.A 77-years-old woman was admitted complaints abdominal pain, distension, vomiting two days. Her past medical history included pancreaticoduodenectomy pancreatic tumor 11 years ago,...

Retroperitoneal masses presenting as an inguinal hernia are rare conditions.A 53 year old male admitted with the symptoms of weight loss, abdominal discomfort and left sided recurrent hernia. Physical examination demonstrated mass in flank irreducible, painless scrotal mass. He had a history surgery six years ago.

Aim: Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES®; American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy [Oak Brook, IL] and of Endoscopic Surgeons [Los Angeles, CA]) is a new approach that allows surgical manipulations specimen extractions through the natural orifices such as vagina. There have been limited numbers cases about adaptation NOTES ventral hernia repairs. Here, we aimed to present two more highlight our technical differences compared with previously reported instances....

Spontaneous rupture of the biliary duct, a rare condition in adults, is difficult to diagnose preoperatively and presents with acute abdominal symptoms. The treatment this should be based on individual's clinical status. We present peripheric duct (segment three) treated external segment III drainage postoperative endoscopic removal stones. An 82-year-old male patient presented pain fever. ultrasound (US) revealed solid gall stone lesion, 3 cm diameter, liver segments three four additional...

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is one of the most preferred bariatric procedures in world for surgical treatment morbid obesity. The Harmonic scalpel (HS) and LigaSure (LS) are commonly used devices laparoscopic surgery.
