Background: Ischemic stroke becomes a major cause of death and disability. It can develop due to intravascular or cardiac thromboemboli. Animal models that reflect diverse mechanisms remain under development. Using photochemical thrombosis, we developed feasible zebrafish model according the thrombus location (intracerebral vs. intracardiac). We validated using real-time imaging thrombolytic agent. Methods: used transgenic larvae (flk:gfp), which express specific fluorescence in endothelial...
Medical thoracoscopy is a feasible procedure for the diagnosis or treatment of thoracic diseases, and it can be performed under local anesthesia without tracheal intubation in cooperative adult patients. However, younger than school aged patients, even simple procedures require general with intubation. In this case report, we demonstrated safe performance single port thoracoscopic 5-year-old girl sedation. Local around site previous chest tube sedation intravenous (IV) dexmedetomidine...
We present a case of symptomatic complex bronchopulmonary foregut malformation (BPFM), including extralobar pulmonary sequestration and bronchogenic cyst, in the left anterior mediastinum 15-year-old boy. Preoperative computed tomography showed cystic mass with heterogeneous enhancement adjacent soft tissue components pleural effusion. suggested infected cyst as first impression. However, pathological examination after surgical resection revealed unusual manifestation, which was located...
Objective: To investigate trends and associated factors of utilization hospital palliative care among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) analyze its impact on length stay, charges, in-hospital mortality. Methods: Using the 2005-2014 National Inpatient Sample in United States, compound annual growth rate was used to temporal trend care. Multivariate multilevel logistic regression analyses were performed association patient-related factors, mortality, charges. Results: The...
Deep-seated intramuscular lipomas are rare, and most exhibit an infiltrating behavior. This study reports serial radiographs of a lipoma in chest wall muscles which penetrated the intercostal muscle for 6-year period. Although this did not involve parietal pleura, it compressed lung. To authors' knowledge, present is first report to show growth deep-seated into thoracic cavity through radiographs. We consider surgical treatment needed before compress intrathoracic structures.
Primary pericardial malignant mesothelioma (PPM) is a very rare malignancy, with an incidence of less than 0.002% and represents 5% all mesotheliomas. The cause uncertain that differ from pleural which associated asbestos exposure. This malignancy terribly aggressive has poor prognosis six months overall survival. We present case 71-year-old woman who was diagnosed cardiac tamponade caused by PPM received chemotherapy pemetrexed cisplatin for months. During two years she alive without...
