Abstract Aims The comparative efficacy of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy on Type 2 diabetes remission the role weight loss are unclear. DiaRem prediction score uses HbA 1c , age medications but not duration. aim this study was to compare with DiaBetter that includes duration, upon combined (complete plus partial) 2‐year post‐surgery in people following RYGB gastrectomy, investigate relationship between remission. Methods A retrospective single‐centre cohort obese who...
Abstract Background Secondary conditions may reduce function and participation in individuals with chronic Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). The knowledge of reasons for readmission to the hospital be enlightening prevent them remodel health services. Study design Multicenter prospective observational study all consecutive readmissions persons SCI after rehabilitation completion. Objectives To explore characteristics readmitted hospital, burden on hospitalization terms length stay (LoS) different...
Twenty one patients with idiopathic Parkinsonism beginning before the age of 40 years were investigated. The mean duration disease was 19 years. There a good and sustained response to levodopa. Only four reached stages IV V (Hoehn Yahr). Intolerance levodopa observed in more advanced disease. In series familial incidence (2 cases) essential tremor (3 very low. Thyroid disorder, diabetes mellitus or macrocytic anaemia not found any cases.
Abstract Background Parastomal hernia (PH) is a common complication post stoma creation, often coexisting with incisional hernias. Stoma closure the primary treatment for PH, options including simultaneous repair (stoma and abdominal wall reconstruction – AWR) or deferred two-stage approach. The optimal approach remains undetermined. study aimed to assess outcomes following AWR in both approaches, focusing on complications recurrence. Method Four cases were presented, two undergoing...
Abstract Background Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery for inguinal hernia allows an approach to the entire myopectineal orifice, leading expected lower recurrence rate and/or incidence of occult hernias. Nevertheless, literature reports rates up 12%, depending on reported follow-up time. Methods Retrospective analysis surgical corrections hernias between January 2018 and March 2023. Evaluation factors associated with its development. Results During analyzed period, 388 patients...
Abstract Background Component separation techniques are increasingly employed in abdominal wall reconstruction surgery. The use of adjuvant techniques, such as intraoperative vertical dynamic fascial traction, enhances the compliance wall. This facilitates closure using less disruptive without compromising effective treatment. Our aim is to retrospective review our results regarding effectiveness and complication rate traction for treatment complex ventral hernias. Method Conducted a...
Abstract Background Obesity is considered a factor contributing to the complexity of abdominal wall hernias due an increased risk surgical wound complications, intra-abdominal pressure and recurrence. The risks associated with obesity significantly escalate when body mass index (BMI) greater than 30 kg/m2. optimal approach for managing these patients remains unclear. Our objective assess outcomes in treatment complex obese patients. Method Retrospective analysis 13 who underwent surgery...
Abstract Background The characterization of complexity in inguinal hernia lacks precision, yet loss domain (LOD) serves as a well-defined criterion. Similar to other ventral hernias, treatment efficacy hinges on pliable abdominal wall and an cavity capable accommodating herniated content. Adjuvant techniques employed attain these objectives are also applicable hernias with LOD. Authors present, video format, the perioperative approach case large bilateral repair domain. Method A 58-year-old...
Abstract Background Inguinal hernia surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures by surgeons and a crucial part surgeon's training process. Implementing minimally invasive in surgical residents can be challenging Our aim to retrospective review analyze evolution results for inguinal both more experienced surgeons. Method Retrospective analysis patients operated using TAPP TEP techniques hernias. Descriptive over years comparison outcomes. Results An average 655 hernias were on...
Abstract Background Studies on the prevalence of rare visceral aneurysms are still scarce and few studies that have focused these present rates in groups patients with aneurysms, but little is known about their general population. Objectives To assess CAT scans performed for diagnosis follow-up other vascular pathologies. Methods This cross-sectional study began by accessing all reports from between January 2005 July 2021 at a private hospital excellence located city São Paulo. A software...
Resumo Contexto Ainda são incomuns os estudos de prevalência aneurismas viscerais raros, e poucos que focalizaram esses observam taxas em grupos pacientes com viscerais, mas pouco se conhece sobre a sua na população geral. Objetivos Avaliar raros angiotomografias realizadas para diagnóstico seguimento diferentes patologias vasculares. Métodos Este estudo transversal partiu do acesso todos laudos entre janeiro 2005 julho 2021 hospital privado excelência situado cidade São Paulo. Foi utilizado...
