Introduction: Inguinal hernias represent one of the most common surgical conditions encountered in medical practice. Technological advances have facilitated use laparoscopy their treatment, yet chronic postoperative pain and hernia recurrence continue to present significant challenges for surgeons, as they a detrimental impact on patients’ long-term quality life. This study aims elucidate outcomes with particular focus pain, recurrence, influence Material method: In this retrospective...
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM), significantly increasing their risk of adverse outcomes. This retrospective study aimed to explore the underlying factors contributing heightened vulnerability DM severe COVID-19. We reviewed medical records patients diagnosed from August 2020 2022 and identified 60 equally divided into two groups. Group A (n = 30) included those an associated infection, while B served as control group without a...
The localization of carcinoids in the gastrointestinal tract is frequently difficult if not impossible with imaging procedures used to date. It reported on a patient metastasizing carcinoid whom various were successful detecting primary tumor. Due importance tumor proof for potential curative surgical therapy, whole-body positron emission tomography F-18-DOPA was performed. PET enabled ileum. Moreover, addition known abdominal lymph node and liver metastases, it detected mediastinal...

Background and Objectives: Although many of the neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) have a typically prolonged natural history compared with other gastrointestinal tract cancers, at least 40% patients develop liver metastases. This study aims to identify whether resection improves overall survival metastases from NEN. Materials Methods: We conducted retrospective "Fundeni" Clinical Institute over time period 15 years; we thereby identified series 93 treated for NEN metastases, which further...
Einleitung: Zielsetzung war die Erprobung und Bestimmung der diagnostischen Aussagekraft neuer Multislice-Sequenzen zur linksventrikulärer Funktionsparameter sowie Detektion stressinduzierter Wandbewegungsstörungen bei Patienten mit koronarer Herzerkrankung. Material Methoden: Es wurden 15 (Durchschnittsalter 57,7 Jahre) koronarangiographisch gesicherter KHK an einem 1,5 T-Ganzkörpertomographen in Ruhe unter pharmakologisch induziertem Stress (Dipyridamol, 0,56 mg/kg Körpergewicht)...
Given its size and location, the liver is third most injured organ by abdominal trauma. Thanks to recent advances, it unanimously accepted that non-operative management current mainstay of treatment for hemodynamically stable patients. However, those patients with hemodynamic instability generally present severe trauma associated major vascular lesions will require surgical management. Moreover, an injury main bile ducts makes surgery compulsory even in case stability, thereby imposing...
We present the case of a 54-year-old female patient, diagnosed with stage IV rectal cancer, multiple (12) synchronous liver metastases, largest 10 cm in diameter, bilobar distributed.The operative management consisted simultaneous ultra-low robotic anterior resection coloanal anastomosis (protected by ileostomy) and ultrasound-guided non-anatomical resections (in open approach).The patient was unable to follow neoadjuvant adjuvant chemotherapy due systemic side effects.The intrahepatic...
, (p=0.007,Log Rank test).Analiza multivariată a identificat un factor de risc: existenţa metastazelor hepatice sincrone la momentul diagnosticului tumorii primare.Considerăm că rezecţia hepatică precedată terapia cu inhibitori ai Tirozin Kinazei este strategia terapeutică actuală ce aduce şansele adecvate spre o posibilă vindecăre şi prelungirea supravieţuirii, pacienţii selectaţi corespunzător, evaluaţi în cadrul unei comisii oncologice multidisciplinare.
Prezentăm cazul unei paciente în vârstă de 37 ani, cu istoric recent chirurgical pentru o tumoră gastrointestinală stromală localizare jejunală, clasificare AFIP: 6a, internată centrul nostru metastaze hepatice sincrone neoperate.Bilanţul oncologic efectuat după 12 luni, care s-a administrat Imatinib, relevă boală stabilă.Examnarea CT decelează metastază hepatică unică, 14 centimetri diametru, localizată segmentele V şi VIII, ce ocupă parţial IV, IV VII, efect masă asupra bifurcaţiei...
Robotic surgery appeared in the Romanian health system 2008 with purchase of first twosurgical robots. One them belonged to “Dan Setlacec” Center General Surgery and LiverTransplantation - Fundeni second Floreasca Emergency Clinical Hospital. Funding wasprovided by Ministry Health special program. Since year operation roboticsystem, has performed about 200 interventions. A key objective programwas identify interventions that are cost efficient, i.e., around 9,000 RON for each...
Therapeutic decision-making for advanced GIST liver metastases is challenging due to limited clinical evidence. This case study aims demonstrate the survival benefit of resection in non-responsive cases. A 40-year-old male presented with abdominal pain, weight loss, altered general status, massive hepatomegaly, and intermittent melaena. He was diagnosed stage IV primary tumor ileal loop multiple gigantic synchronous bilobar metastases. Despite 31 months tyrosine-kinase inhibitor therapy...
Abstract Introduction/Objective Thymic adenocarcinomas are extremely rare. Enteric type thymic adenocarcinoma is an even more rare subtype morphologically and immunophenotypically indistinguishable from colorectal primaries. Methods/Case Report We report a case of 63-year-old female who presented with shortness breath cough. Computerized tomography (CT) scan showed 11 x 6 cm right-sided anterior mediastinal mass extending the great vessels to diaphragm. Within mass, there was 4.8 possible...
