Late bacterial infections (LBIs) after esthetic facial augmentation using hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are relatively rare yet severe complications that difficult to treat. No adequate treatment standards have hitherto been formulated. We bridged this gap by formulating a scheme based on the principles of treating foreign-body implantation-related and growth in form biofilm. The objective study was evaluate efficacy comprehensive for LBI cross-linked HA fillers.A total 22 patients with...
The presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a novel cardiovascular risk factor, contributes to the development peripheral arterial diseases (PAD). There is lack data showing how often these coexist.The aim study was determine prevalence OSA in population patients with PAD.Patients previously qualified for first revascularization due PAD were included study. All underwent an overnight detect OSA. Diagnosis made when apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥5 per hour.From 141 (60% men, age 69.6 ± 9.5...
Carotid flow velocity criteria are well established, with age being a factor influencing measurements. However, there no volumetric standards for the in extracranial arteries. The aim of study was related to assessment arteries healthy population >65 years old.Doppler measurements internal carotid (ICA), external (ECA) and vertebral (VA) were performed 123 volunteers old compared 56 <65 old.The continuous decline cerebral blood (CBF) volume observed (p < 0.00001). Volumetric reference values...
(1) Background: Alterations of blood flow volume in extracranial arteries may be related to the risk occurrence neurological symptoms. The aim this study was estimation cerebral (CBF) Doppler ultrasonography, as well comparison asymptomatic patients over 65 years old with ≥50%, and symptomatic ≥70% internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, order assess whether changes CBF correlates presence (2) Methods: 308 were included retrospective cohort observational study: 154 ≥50% ICA 123 healthy...
Background: Recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) significantly challenges gynecological oncology due to its poor outcomes. This study assesses the impact of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) on ROC survival rates. Materials and Methods: Conducted at Medical University Lublin from April 2011 November 2022, this retrospective observational involved 71 patients histologically confirmed who underwent CRS subsequent HIPEC. Results: The median...
Renal arteriovenous anomalies are uncommon. They characterized by an abnormal vascular connection that usually bypasses the capillary bed. Most acquired fistulas (AVF) while rest congenital or idiopathic malformations (AVM). AVF caused renal interventions, trauma, neoplastic processes. can lead to hypertension, heart failure, hematuria, and insufficiency. A 69-year-old woman presented with arrhythmia, tachycardia, mild ankle edema, increasing fatigue. Right kidney color Doppler ultrasound...
Adrenal gland is a common site of metastasis and on the other hand, metastases are most frequent malignant adrenal tumors. The aim this study was to estimate risk malignancy in suspicious mass patients with history cancer.This single-center retrospective analysis tumors treated previously for different types cancers. Between 2004 2021 hundred six such were identified. Mean age 62.6 years (30-78), mean time from oncologic treatment 55.8 months (0-274). primary cancer kidney (RCC): 29 (27.4%),...
(1) Background: Carotid artery occlusion (CAO) in population studies has a reported prevalence of about 6 per 100,000 people; however, the data may be underestimated. CAO carries significant risk stroke. Up to 15% large infractions secondary CAO, and 27–38% patients, ischaemic stroke is first presentation disease. The presence sufficient well-developed collateral circulation protective influence, being good prognostic factor patients with carotid disease, both chronic acute. Understanding...
True aneurysms of peripancreatic arterial arcades (PAAAs) coexisting with celiac axis lesion are often asymptomatic. However, they may rupture regardless their size and cause life-threatening hypovolemia. No treatment guidelines exist to date. We present a series 21 patients our management algorithm.For ruptured we preformed endovascular embolization. Further was dependent on patient's condition control studies. In case unruptured aneurysms, assessed collateral circulation between superior...
The adrenal gland is a frequent site of metastases in different types cancer. aim this study was to assess the results metastatic adrenalectomy single institution and identify factors for survival.A retrospective, single-centre analysis outcomes 39 patients (22 male, 17 female) with who underwent surgery within 14 years (2004-2017) performed. median age at time 64.8 (range 49-79 years).In our group non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) most primary tumour type (15 pts), followed by renal...
Purpose: Little is known about the influence of lifestyle-related factors upon risk late bacterial infection (LBI) emerging at site soft-tissue filler augmentation. The aim this study was to analyze impact some such on LBI by comparing their respective prevalence between two groups previously healthy women: a group in which occurred cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) augmentation and second did not have an infection. Patients methods: featured 25 women who developed HA augmentation; control...
Background: Cerebral blood flow (CBF) can be related to the risk of occurrence neurological symptoms. Well-developed collateral circulation is a good prognostic factor in patients with cerebrovascular disease. Understanding mechanisms may important diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring this group patients. The aim study covered assessment CBF 70−99% Internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, focusing on pathways volume extracranial arteries. Materials methods: 53 ICA stenosis (mean age 73.4 ± 7...
Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is in fact a group of entities with different symptoms and course but common underlying cause, i.e. atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis known to be aggravated by several cardiovascular risk factors, including obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Aim: Following paper protocol for the ARtery Atherosclerotic DIsease SlEep disordered breathing (PARADISE) trial, which aims describe prevalence OSA PAD patients scheduled revascularisation, determine effect on...
A renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is a rare, usually benign tumor consisting of smooth muscle cells, abnormal blood vessels, and fat tissue. Although AMLs are often asymptomatic, they can present with flank pain, hematuria, palpable mass in the abdomen. significant complication involves rupture hemorrhage into retroperitoneal cavity, which be life-threatening. The treatment approach has evolved from surgical removal to more conservative management, such as nephron-sparing embolization mammalian...
Purpose Cryoablation is one of the methods treating patients with renal cancer curative intent. This procedure not widely available in Poland due to lack reimbursement until April 2023. The purpose this study present results first experiences cryoablation cell carcinoma Poland. Material and Patients T1a stage (up 4 cm diameter) were treated percutaneous between December 2020 All disqualified from surgical treatment age, comorbidities, or history nephrectomy. Diagnosis was confirmed by...
Splenic artery aneurysm (SAAs) rupture is associated with a high mortality rate. Regular surveillance imaging before and after intervention crucial to guide best evidence treatment. The following study aimed determine the efficacy of color Doppler ultrasound (DUS) compared digital subtraction angiography (DSA) magnetic resonance (MRA) as follow-up modality selective coil embolization true SAAs. We analyzed data from 20 patients, 15 females (48.1 ± 16.1 years) undergoing SAA using detachable...
