Abstract Background: Updated National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry Laboratory Medicine Practice Guidelines for the use tumor markers in clinic have been developed. Methods: Published reports relevant to 4 cancer sites—liver, bladder, cervical, and gastric—were critically reviewed. Results: α-Fetoprotein (AFP) may be used conjunction with abdominal ultrasound early detection hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis associated B C virus infection. AFP...
In general, the liver is considered to be larger in males than females. present study, data on weight from 728 legal autopsies were analyzed with respect gender, age, body height (BH), (BW), mass index (BMI), and surface area (BSA). Descriptive statistics revealed that increases reaching maximum values between 41 50 years men 51 60 women. Thereafter, decreases again. Because this loss starts earlier while continues rise women, difference women lost above age of 50. Thus, defines a threshold...
To describe the technique and results of an alternative colon interposition procedure in which ascending transverse is used as graft, but that still relies on left colonic artery for blood supply.The standard to obtain a graft requires ligation middle colic mobilization right flexure. This approach carries risk because preparation flexure may damage arterial or venous collaterals located at this site are crucial perfusion.The authors modified so no longer necessary. long enough, was included...

In 16 cadaver humeroulnar joints, the distribution of subchondral mineralisation was assessed by CT osteoabsorptiometry and position size contact areas polyether casting under loads 10 N to 1280 N. Ulnas with separate olecranon coronoid cartilaginous surfaces showed matching bicentric patterns mineralisation. Under small there were on surfaces; these merged centrally as load increased. They occupied little 9% total articular surface at up 73% continuous also had density two maxima but those...
<i>Background/Aims:</i> To evaluate the long-term outcome of surgical and non-surgical local treatments patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). <i>Methods:</i> We stratified a cohort 278 HCC using six independent predictors survival according to Vienna model for (VISUM-HCC). <i>Results:</i> Prior therapy, 224 presented VISUM stage 1 (median 18 months) while 29 were classified as 2 4 25 3 months). A highly significant (p < 0.001) improved time was...
Purpose: This study compared the efficacy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using a second generation contrast medium versus CT or MRA in assessment vascular and biliary complications postoperative follow-up liver transplantation. M
Abstract The aim of the study was to investigate predictive impact extracranial metastatic patterns on course disease and survival in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) brain metastasis (BM). A total 228 (134 male [59%], 94 female [41%]) histologically proven CRC BM were classified into different groups according patterns. Time intervals events times from initial diagnosis, intracranial analyzed. Extracranial organs mostly affected liver (102 [44.7%]) lung (96 [42.1%]). Liver metastases...
To assess the morphology and function of transverse acetabular ligament (TAL), its internal structure insertion sites were analyzed, strain was determined during hip joint loading. Fifteen specimens embedded in methyl methacrylate cut into 500-µm sections parallel to inlet acetabulum. Polarized light microscopy contact radiography revealed important differences between ventral dorsal attachment TAL. Ventrally, fibers insert close labrum, at a rather extensive site consisting fibrous...
Preliminary results of a questionnaire survey showed that gastric transposition is the technique choice in Germany to restore alimentary continuity after esophageal resection. Experience with colon interposition grafting low. Only 13% all centers perform this technique. Despite limited experience, there appears be no difference complication rate between pull-through procedures and interpositions. A modification established techniques possible when right used if it prepared such way left...
Liver transplantation (OLT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) improves patient survival when tumor size and number are limited according to the Milan criteria. However, impact of vs. lesions recurrence after OLT is unclear. Microvascular invasion appears be a significant risk factor recurrence. Therefore, it was aim this study investigate differentiation microvascular in relation their on transplantation.In 97 adult HCC patients who underwent between June 1985 December 2005 incidence...
Previous studies have shown that the trochlear notch is deeper than necessary for an exact fit with humerus. However, humero-ulnar joint space width and contact areas so far not been quantified variations in load angle of flexion.Six fresh cadaveric specimens were investigated at 30 degrees, 60 90 120 degrees flexion loads 25 500 N, simulating resisted elbow extension. The determined, using polyether casting material.At N all joints made ventral dorsal aspects articular surfaces, whereas...
Objectives: Comparison of intravenous Fenestra VC-enhanced computed tomography (CT) with gadopentetate dimeglumine and Ferucarbotran contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the in vivo hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) a murine model. Material Methods: After induction IRI by left liver lobe (LLL) ischemia (30, 45, 75 minutes) reperfusion (4 hours 24 hours), total 130 mice were imaged either 3-D CT or dynamic, T1-weighed static, T2*-weighed 2-D MRI (4.7 T). Results:...
