Life expectancy in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) has recently improved due to numerous factors, including a multidisciplinary approach their management. Prolonged survival may have led an increasing impact of liver disease on the prognosis CF patients. The aim this study was assess role transplantation CF.The factors influencing outcome 24 (15 adults and nine children) who received single transplantation, triple heart-lung-liver (tx) or died while being assessed for grafting, were...
Colorectal cancer is the second commonest malignancy in UK. Metastases to liver occur greater than 50% of patients and remain biggest determinant outcome these patients. Liver resection a safe procedure that achieves good long-term survival, but surgery has traditionally been limited select groups The improved suggests more could benefit from if was known what criteria are predictive outcome.A retrospective analysis performed on all undergoing surgical for colorectal metastases between March...
Gallstone ileus is a complication of cholelithiasis resulting from fistula between the gallbladder and gastrointestinal tract. If sufficiently large, gallstone may lodge at narrowest part tract, usually terminal ileum, present with small bowel obstruction. Here authors unusual case an 82-year-old man who developed symptoms signs large obstruction due to untreated gallstone, measuring 7×4.5 cm, that fistulated into transvere colon subsequently impacted in sigmoid colon. An emergency...
Safety and feasibility of robotic colorectal surgery has been reported as increasing over the last decade. However safe implementation adaptation such a programme with comparable morbidities acceptable oncological outcomes remains challenge in busy tertiary unit. We present our experience structured high-volume center United Kingdom.Two surgeons underwent training consisting time on simulation console, dry wet laboratory courses, case observation, initial mentoring. Data were collected...
Pre duodenal portal vein (PDPV) has not been reported as a cause of obstruction in adults. We describe 60 year old man who presented with symptoms gastric outlet caused by PDPV, and was diagnosed at laparotomy treated gastrojejunostomy.
Chronic constipation and faecal impaction are common in the elderly, particularly institutionalized patients those with neurological impairment. Faecaloma formation is an extreme manifestation of coprostasis that can lead to stercoral ulcerations perforation, a recognized severe complication. We present case uncommon life-threatening complication resulting from giant rectal faecaloma, which has rarely been reported literature. The patient presented haemodynamic shock profuse per-rectum...
Introduction:Previous reports oflaparoscopic cholecyslcclomy (LC) m patients with binaq, pancreatitis suggested increased operative difficulty, high rates of conversion, longer postoperative hospital stay, and greater morbidity mortality.Aims: To compare risk in undergoing LC for binary those other causes.Material Methods: Between 1990 1997, g92 consecutive underwent LC, keeping a policy of"LC all patients".Data were collected prospectively.LC was performed 63 (Group 1) causes 829...
