The optimal perioperative blood glucose range to improve surgical site infection (SSI) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients remains unclear. We sought determine whether the incidence of SSI is reduced by insulin therapy (IT).Patients were randomly assigned receive IT, with a target 4.4-6.1 mmol/L, or intermediate 7.7-10.0 mmol/L ICU. defined primary end point as SSI.Study participants control one two ranges: for 225 IT group 222 group, respectively. No either became hypoglycemic (<4.4...
To determine the functional discrepancy between two liver lobes using technetium 99m ((99m)Tc) diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid-galactosyl human serum albumin ( GSA ) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed (CT) fusion imaging following preoperative biliary drainage and portal vein embolization PVE in patients with jaundice who have bile duct cancer BDC ).This retrospective study was approved by institutional review board, waiver of informed consent. Preoperative...
A 55-year-old man suffering from melena was admitted to our hospital. blood test showed severe anemia. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed a huge lesion in the duodenum and dilatation of common bile duct. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy also identified hemorrhaging tumor duodenum. Due low density mass, we performed emergency pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. Histology an area well-differentiated liposarcoma as well high-grade spindle cells pleomorphic sarcoma...
Some clinicians have proposed a relationship between gallbladder (GB) cancer and adenomyomatosis (ADM) of the gallbladder, although latter condition is not considered to malignant potential. We retrospectively reviewed surgical pathology database patients who underwent resection for ADM at our institution from March 2005 May 2015. In total, 624 with Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses. Of these cases, 93 were pathologically diagnosed 44 (47.3%) classified macroscopically as fundal-type ADM, 26...
We report herein a 41-year-old female with tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA), which microbial cultures showed to contain extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli, causative agent of community-acquired infection. The patient initially presented acute abdominal pain and back pain. Pelvic computed tomography transvaginal ultrasonography revealed multiple cystic lesions in the bilateral ovaries that suggested TOA. An emergency laparotomy was therefore performed due potential for...
In recent years, bone marrow (BM)-derived stem cell repopulation of injured organs has been increasingly observed; however, the extent to which it occurs and its clinical relevance remain unclear. Here, we investigated on potential extrahepatic cells become hepatocytes using treatment oral supplementation branched-chain amino acids (BCAA).In first, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were administered BCAA promote liver regeneration; in second, syngenic transplantations wild-type SD that do not express...
The major goals that must be achieved during pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) include reduction of postoperative hemorrhage and/or operating time. We herein describe a new technique for PD examining right posterior approach PD.From January 2012 to December 2013, 116 patients underwent periampullary or pancreatic disease. Of these patients, 56 cases were surgically treated pancreas head malignancy and studied blood loss volume length operation.An interesting issue in the present study was related...
We have revisited prognostic outcomes and recurrence patterns in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) who underwent complete surgical resection at a single institution.Patients curative treatment were divided into two groups: those high-risk GISTs (high-risk group) very low-, intermediate-risk (lower-risk group).A total of 109 surgery as an initial for GIST studied. The overall 5- 10-year survival rates after 90.3 71.1%, respectively. 5-year rate group was 88.1%, their did...
A 61-year-old man was referred to our hospital treat extrahepatic portal venous obstruction. Endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) performed for the esophageal varices; however, patient returned with massive hematemesis from gastric varices 6 months after treatment. Although were treated EIS, devascularization and splenectomy concomitant shunt surgery required uncontrollable, frequent diarrhea abdominal distension. Because splenic vein, left inferior vena cava inadequate anastomosis, an...
症例は70歳,男性。主訴は腹部膨満感と腹痛。朝出勤途中に突然の腹痛と腹部膨満感を訴え,近医を受診。受診時血圧80/50mmHgと低値であり,超音波検査にて腹腔内出血を疑われ当院へ救急搬入された。緊急腹部造影computed tomography(CT)にて膵頭部背側に血腫と思われる腫瘤影を認め,3 dimension-computed tomography(3D-CTA)にて正中弓状靭帯によって圧迫され狭窄した腹腔動脈起始部が認められた。緊急腹部血管造影にて膵十二指腸動脈に動脈瘤を認めた。これらの所見より正中弓状靭帯圧迫症候群に伴う膵十二指腸動脈瘤とその破裂と診断した。マイクロコイルにて動脈瘤の塞栓術を施行し,術後経過は良好であった。膵十二指腸動脈破裂による出血に対する緊急治療は,安全性の面から塞栓術を第一選択と考える。動脈瘤の成因と考えられる正中弓状靭帯圧迫について,その圧迫解除の手術適応につき今後検討する必要がある。
Abstract Background Few cases of traumatic pneumothorax complicated by thoracic empyema have been reported. The indication antibiotic prophylaxis administration for during tube thoracostomy remains controversial, and injury can be life-threatening intractable. Case presentation A 42-year-old male patient was injured a collision with passenger car while driving motorcycle. (body mass index, 37 kg/m 2 ) diagnosed right first-to-sixth-rib fractures without flail segment, clavicle fracture,...
Herein we describe a 42-year-old female with mesenteric phlebosclerosis of her ascending colon. She visited our hospital due to abdominal pain, and computed tomography revealed edematous colon remarkable calcification the ileocolic right colic veins. had been taking kampo medicine for nearly 20 years, ‘drug-induced’ was diagnosed. Treatment fasting intravenous infusion therapy did not alleviate symptom, therefore she underwent resection side Subsequent pathological examination confirmed...
Pediatric sports injuries, including those from baseball, most often are musculoskeletal injuries and rarely include blunt abdominal injuries. Duodenal injury is rare associated with other organ Because it has a relatively high mortality, early recognition timely treatment needed. Here, we report case of successful pediatric patient duodenal incurred in the context school baseball.A 13-year-old boy suffered trauma right-hand caused by beating his abdomen strongly own right knuckle after he...
症例は79歳の男性で,約40年前に膵体尾部の囊胞性疾患に対して開腹術の既往があるが詳細不詳である.上部消化管内視鏡検査で胃体後壁からの出血を認め,囊胞内出血からの穿破が疑われた.緊急血管造影で脾動脈から膵囊胞内出血,胃穿破を認め,脾動脈本幹を塞栓し止血をえた.全身状態の改善を待って待機的に手術施行した.膵囊胞病変周囲は炎症性変化で強固な癒着を来していたため,胃上部,膵体尾部,脾臓,結腸脾彎曲部,左副腎を一塊として摘出した.病理組織学的検査では囊胞壁は肉芽組織,膿瘍で覆われ仮性囊胞であった.膵組織は萎縮しほぼ消失していたが,胃囊胞瘻孔部対側の囊胞壁外の萎縮した膵臓に腺癌を認めた.本症例は長期間経過観察されていた膵仮性囊胞に併存した膵癌と考えられ,炎症をくり返し癌化した可能性もあり貴重な症例と考え報告する.
