Surgical site infections (SSIs) after cardiac surgery increase morbidity and mortality rates. This multicenter study aimed to identify risk factors associated with SSIs heart surgery. Conducted from January March 2023, this prospective included 167 patients aged >16 years post-heart SSIs. The primary focus was the 30-day mortality. Univariate analysis multivariate logistic regression utilizing backward elimination method were used establish final model. Several significantly correlated These...
<b>Objective</b> Elective minilaparotomy abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is associated with a significant number of complications involving respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and central nervous systems, mortality ranging up to 5%. In our study, we tested the hypothesis that intra- postoperative intravenous restrictive fluid regimen reduces morbidity mortality, improves outcome AAA repair. <b>Methods</b> From March 2009 July 2013, 60 patients operated due were included in...
Introduction:The main route of acquiring infectious blood and body fluids in hospital conditions is accidental exposure to stinging incidents.Aim: The aim this study was determine the epidemiological characteristics exposures blood-borne pathogens among different professional groups health care workers (HCWs).Materials Methods:A cross-sectional conducted using "Questionnaire on HCWs transmitted infections" at University Clinical Centre Tuzla, Bosnia Herzegovina, from 1st March 31st December...
Urinary tract infections (UTI) cause a great number of morbidity and mortality. These are serious complications in pregnancy, patients with diabetes, polycystic kidneys disease, sickle cell anaemia, kidney transplant functional or structural anomalies the urinary tract. The aim this investigation was to determine dominant causative agents UTI some clinical laboratory characteristics acute community-acquired adult hospitalised patients. We studied 200 Clinic for Infectious Diseases Tuzla from...
Introduction: Hospital-acquired Urinary tract infections make 35% of all the hospital-acquired infections, and about 80% them are related to catheterization urinary bladder.Purpose: To determine clinical characteristics dominant etiologic factors Tract Infections associated with catheter (C-UTIs).Methods: Determined C-UTIs were prospectively analyzed on 38 hospitalized patients in Clinic for Infectious Diseases at University Clinical Centre Tuzla, from January 1 st 2011 December 31 2011.The...
Venous aneurysms are rare vascular malformations that can lead to significant clinical complications, including thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, rupture, and even fatal outcomes when not promptly adequately managed. This case report presents a liver transplant patient under immunosuppressive therapy who developed rapidly progressing great saphenous vein aneurysm, ultimately requiring urgent surgical intervention due acute bleeding from the ruptured aneurysm. Immunosuppression emerges as...

METHODS Conducted from January March 2023, this prospective included 167 patients aged > 16 post-heart SSIs. The primary focus was on 30-day Univariate analysis a multivariate logistic regression model, utilizing the Backward elimination method, were employed...
<h3>Objectives:</h3> To compare carotid endarterectomy patch angioplasty (p-CEA) with eversion (e-CEA) and associated risks of early cardio-cerebrovascular complications. <h3>Methods:</h3> The study was a prospective randomized single-blind trial, monocentric, clinically applicable, descriptive analytical comparative. From June 2021 to 2023, 62 consecutive patients symptomatic asymptomatic stenosis the internal artery, admitted our department into two groups: endarterectomy. Follow-up for 30...
To avoid hospital spread of Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) and to analyze out outcomes after amputation.Prospective analysis data obtained from 60 diabetic patients in 2020 was performed at Cantonal Hospital Zenica, Bosnia Herzegovina. Personal protection equipment included double surgical mask, glasses, disposable coats, masks for patients. Swabs were used take samples wounds. We randomly divided 2 groups 30 each. In pre-operative treatment, we local anesthesia lidocaine hydrochloride 2%...
Isolated iliac artery aneurysms are rare and occur predominantly in men at an older age. Such can rupture into adjacent organ (such as the bowel, bladder or ureter) common vein, resulting arteriovenous fistula.Formation of internal fistula caused by spontaneous atherosclerotic aneurysm wall is exceedingly yet serious complication.This article presents a case giant aneurysm.Rapid diagnosis meticulous surgical technique improve outcomes patients with this vascular complication.
We read with great interest the recently published study by Wang et al.[1] The authors conducted retrospective comparing bleeding and transfusion outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery surgery before after implementation of Multiplate-guided algorithm.[1]
A 22 year old man was admitted in the ICU because of a gunshot wound. At moment he conscious and breathing spontaneously. On left side lower jaw entry hole wound determined. The exit on right neck. An emergent CT scan head neck done. that established spreading from forward to back. In area upper jaw's alveolar processus metal like density described. After clinical laboratory finding were stabilised we decided perform third surgery using an interpositing reversed vena saphena magna graft....
We admitted a 76-year old male person with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. He was immediately brought to the emergency room (ER). The blood pressure 80/40 mmHg, HTC less than 0.17. decided perform an emergent CT angiography wich verified referral diagnosis. AAA 12 cm in diameter. An life saving operation had be done so patient theatre (OT). approach abdomen classic median laparotomy. After we opened abdomen, found huge retroperitoneal haematoma that pushed beside intra-abdominal organs...
Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by Leishmania parasitic protozoans affecting people in both the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.The secreted acid phosphatase enzymes (SAPs) are reported to play critical role infection Leishmania.Thus, these potential targets for therapy.Tryptamines have various physiological effects thus serve different purposes socially.Tryptamines used ritualistic ceremonies countries where cases reported.In this work, tryptamine two other indole derivatives, harmine...
We report a case of chronic total occlusion the aorta with critical limb ischemia (CLI) lower limbs due to (CTO) infrarenal and extensive bilateral iliac disease.This was treated by open surgical revascularization, after unsuccessful attempt percutaneous endovascular stenting treatment.
