Early intestinal mucosal damage plays an important role in severe acute pancreatitis (AP). Previous studies have shown that permeability (IP), serum endotoxin and cytokines contribute to the early barrier dysfunction AP. This study explored predictive capacity of IP, endotoxemia as prognostic indicators AP patients.Eighty-seven patients were included study. The classified into three groups according Balthazar computed tomography severity index (CTSI). We compared biochemical parameters,...

Hughes and Stovin first reported a syndrome consisting of multiple pulmonary artery aneurysms venous thrombosis in 1959. We encountered 45-year-old man who had massive hemoptysis leg swelling. The CT angiography showed huge bilateral inferior vena caval thrombosis. lower lobe were successfully treated with staged operations. patient tolerated the procedures relatively well was followed up by steroid therapy good response.
Breast metastases from an extramammary primary tumor are very rare and the prognosis for such patients is generally poor. We report here on a case of 42-year-old female with metastasis non-small cell lung cancer to breast, she now being followed up outpatient basis. In 2004, presented solitary pulmonary nodule in left lung, this lesion had been noted have gradually increased size over time. The final pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma, made by performing percutaneous needle aspiration...
Objectives: Although surgical intervention for spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) reduces the recurrence rate, thoracoscopic surgery is associated with greater postoperative rates than open thoracotomy. A polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet or oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) mesh can therefore be used additional coverage after surgery, and this study compared clinical impacts of these two materials. Methods: From 2018 to 2020, 262 surgeries primary SP were performed, which 125 patients enrolled in...
The aim of the study was to evaluate incidence and severity visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) during 3D laparoscopy, in operators without prior experience.Design: A retrospective comparative (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). Setting: university hospital. Intervention: Gynecologic surgery. Main outcome measure: This is a prospective observational study, which enrolled 9 surgeons as participants. None these had any experience with laparoscopy. Each participant performed 10...
Lemierre syndrome is caused by acute oropharyngeal infections with secondary septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein and characterized frequent metastatic infections.A 56-year-old man presented severe reddish inflammatory swelling right cervical soft tissue.Thrombophlebitis in multiple pulmonary embolisms were identified on neck chest computed tomography (CT).He was treated antibiotics heparin for 4 weeks then discharged without other complications.
Most malignant mesenchymal tumors of the lung are metastases a primary tumor from elsewhere in body.A pulmonary synovial sarcoma is very rare neoplasm that accounts for approximately 10% soft tissue sarcomas and makes up only 0.5% all malignancies.We report case 60-year old woman.In this case, metastasis was excluded using 18F-FDG PET /CT imaging.
Abstract Aim Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been increasingly used for the treatment of pulmonary metastases in various malignancies. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed to establish safety and efficacy cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT)‐guided RFA patients with metastatic colorectal cancer between 2016 2019, prognostic factors local tumor control were assessed. Results total 31 underwent 48 sessions lung RFA. The mean diameter targeted 11 mm (range: 4–32), technically...
Abstract MicroRNA(or miRNA) regulates various biological process including development, differentiation, proliferation, maintenance and apoptosis. Recently, existence of cancer stem cells was reported in some solid malignancies, breast, brain, prostate, liver pancreas cancers. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma remains an extremely aggressive malignancy that is virtually therapy-resistant. Thus better understanding on cell biology will not only help us to develop diagnostic marker for early...
141 Background: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been increasingly used for the treatment of pulmonary metastases from several types malignancies. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed safety and efficacy percutaneous RFA in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer between October 2016 June 2019 as well assessing prognostic factors local tumor control. Results: carried out 48 lung 31 consecutive patients. Male 17 (55%), median age at 61 years (range, 42-81). The mean diameter...
