Intraoperative Navigation in der Chirurgie der Nasennebenhöhlen und der vorderen Schädelbasis
2002
Hintergrund und Fragestellung. Beim Einsatz der computerassistierten Chirurgie im Bereich der Nasennebenhohlen und vorderen Schadelbasis sind einige Fehlerquellen zu beachten, die durch physikalische Gesetze, den technischen Entwicklungs- und individuellen Kenntnisstand des Anwenders bedingt sind. Patienten/Methodik. Anhand unserer Erfahrungen von 436 navigationsunterstutzten Eingriffen werden Hard- und Softwarefehler, Fehler der Bildgebung und des -transfers, Fehler der Patientenregistrierung, Anwenderfehler und strategische Fehler analysiert. Ergebnisse. Bei optischen CAS-Systemen fuhrt die Blockade des Sichtfeldes der Kamera zu Funktionseinschrankungen, wahrend elektromagnetische Systeme…
Fehlerquellen der Navigation in der lateralen Sch�delbasischirurgie
2003
Die Identifikation moglicher Storfaktoren navigationsunterstutzter Eingriffe an der lateralen Schadelbasis ermoglichen dem Anwender die Vermeidung und Behebung dieser Fehler. Anhand unserer Erfahrungen von 85 navigationsunterstutzten Eingriffen im Bereich der lateralen Schadelbasis werden Fehler der Hard- und Software, der Bildgebung und des -transfers, der Patientenregistrierung, durch den Anwender und solche strategischer Art analysiert. Bei optischen CAS-Systemen fuhrt eine Blockade des Sichtfelds der Kameras zu Funktionsbeschrankungen, wahrend elektromagnetische Systeme durch ferromagnetisch aktive Materialien beeinflusst werden konnen. Die bisherigen Verfahren der Patientenregistrierun…
Utilidad de la Paratohormona intraoperatoria en la cirugía del hiperparatiroidismo primario: importancia de su porcentaje de descenso y su valor fina…
2019
El hiperparatiroidismo primario (HPTP) es uno de los trastornos endocrinológicos más frecuentes y supone la primera causa de hipercalcemia en pacientes no hospitalizados. Su diagnóstico aumentó a partir de la década de los 70 del siglo pasado en los países industrializados tras la incorporación del calcio sérico a los análisis automatizados de cribado de rutina. Aunque es difícil establecer la prevalencia real de la enfermedad debido a la existencia de numerosos casos asintomáticos no diagnosticados, en la actualidad se estima una prevalencia del 0,2-1% de la población adulta, siendo la incidencia aproximada de unos 20-30/100.000 habitantes por año. La presentación clínica del HPTP ha evolu…
Mapping of the perigastric lymphatic network using indocyanine green fluorescence imaging and tissue marking dye in clinically advanced gastric cance…
2022
Abstract Background Using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging and tissue marking dyes (TMDs), perigastric lymphatic mapping and their pathological correlation were examined to see whether ICG staining covers all metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) in advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Methods Patients with AGC who underwent open distal or total gastrectomy were enrolled. ICG was serially injected intraoperatively into the subserosa along the greater and lesser curvatures. Stomach specimens were examined under a near-infrared camera. ICG-stained LNs were named, excised, and tattooed with different colored TMDs to retrace the exact location after pathological examinations. Results A total of 68…
Prospective comparison of cardiopulmonary events during minilaparoscopy and colonoscopy under conscious sedation.
2005
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Cardiorespiratory parameters were examined throughout diagnostic minilaparoscopy procedures. The same parameters were analyzed during colonoscopy, and the data were compared. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-five consecutive unselected patients undergoing minilaparoscopy (group 1: ASA I, n = 34; group 2: ASA II/III, n = 31) and 61 consecutive unselected patients undergoing colonoscopy (group 3: ASA I, n = 31; group 4: ASA II/III, n = 30) were included. Oxygen saturation (Sao (2)), heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (RRm) were measured continuously, and 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG) recordings were made at specific times during each procedure. RESULTS Minor di…
Multimodal Intraoperative Neuromonitoring in Aneurysm Surgery
2017
Following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, the primary goal of treatment is to exclude the vascular malformation from the intracranial circulation, while preserving the parent artery. In unruptured aneurysms, the decision whether to treat or observe the malformation is made on a case-by-case basis. In this regard, the ISUIA (International Study of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms) investigators suggested that aneurysm size and location were independent predictors for aneurysm rupture.1 ISUIA examined 1692 patients with cerebral aneurysms with a mean follow-up time of 4.1 years. Rupture rates differed depending on size and location, ranging from 0% in aneurysms <7 mm located in the in…
Detector for monitoring potential bleeding during electron intraoperative radiotherapy
2018
Purpose: The aim of this work is to develop a bleeding detector integrated into the acrylic circular applicators for specific mobile linacs. Thus, a bleeding detector has been developed based on a capacitive sensor to be used with plastic applicators, as in the case of LIAC HWL from Sordina IORT Technologies SpA. According to the clinical impact, we have selected 0.5 cm as the minimum depth of fluid that should be detected. Methods: An experiment was developed using water-simulating blood. Two setups were considered: non-beveled applicators with 7 cm and 10 cm diameter. Measurements were done for applicators 0 degrees and 45 degrees tilted, both with respect to the horizontal surface, in or…
Phantom development for daily checks in electron intraoperative radiotherapy with a mobile linac.
2020
Abstract Purpose IORT with mobile linear accelerators is a well-established modality where the dose rate and, therefore, the dose per pulse are very high. The constancy of the dosimetric parameters of the accelerator has to be checked daily. The aim of this work is to develop a phantom with embedded detectors to improve both accuracy and efficiency in the daily test of an IORT linac at the surgery room. Methods The developed phantom is manufactured with transparent polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), allocating 6 parallel-plate chambers: a central one to evaluate the on-axis beam output, another on-axis one placed at a fixed depth under the previous one to evaluate the energy constancy and four…
