Background: Gastrointestinal stromal (GIST) tumors make Ͻ 1% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms and 20% small bowel neoplasms.The most common acute presenting symptom these is hemorrhage with obstruction being rare.We discuss our laparoscopic approach to 2 patients GIST that presented institution the bowel.Case Presentation: Two emergency department signs symptoms obstruction.On workup, each was found have a solid lesion either within or adjacent at point both were emergently taken operating...

<h3></h3> <b>Background:</b> Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is comprised of papillary and follicular subtypes, both have an overall excellent long-term prognosis. Patients with localized DTC that successfully treated, usually surgery, exhibit survival well above 90%. In contrast, patients who develop distant metastatic disease a significantly worse prognosis outcome, often refractory to conventional therapy such as radioactive iodine, hormone suppression. For recur disease, limited...
Background: Loss of domain, fascial separation, and wound contamination are all recognized challenges complex abdominal wall reconstruction. Often, traditional therapies, such as advancement, mesh reinforcement, the use bio-prostheses for infection insufficient. Recently, we have investigated using cutis an alternative therapy. We present case a 61-year old male treated in manner. Methods: Our patient presented to our facility with defect 30 by 40 cm, infected skin graft after undergoing...
Abstract Introduction Over 10,000 cases of autologous skin cell suspension have been performed around the world for treatment burn and soft tissue injuries. A key component procedure is harvest biopsies which are exposed to enzymatic degradation. In some regions, epidermal graft has attempted manually without Our study goal was examine histologic changes in manual versus Methods an IRB-approved, prospective controlled analysis residual harvested from 10 patients undergoing hernia repair. Two...
Abstract Aim Traditional approaches to ventral hernia repair involve implantation of synthetic mesh (SM), primary suture (PS) repair, and the use biologic prostheses (BP). A body mass index (BMI) &gt; 30 increases recurrence rates complications for such repairs. We have begun Autologous Fenestrated Cutis Grafts (CG) as an alternative repair. investigated impact obesity on complication CG compared traditional Material Methods five-surgeon, retrospective study included all...
