«Io non accuso, non giudico; spiego»: Napoleone III negli scritti di Tommaseo

2021

The essay analyzes the political evaluation of Niccolò Tommaseo on the role played by Napoleon III in the path of Italian unification. In this sense, the issues concerning the relationship between the Church and the nascent Italian state are particularly interesting, especially as regards political theories and relations between European nations.

Comparative Study of the Initial Experience in Performing Robotic and Laparoscopic Right Hepatectomy with Technical Description of the Robotic Techni…

2017

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Despite potential benefits of robotic liver surgery, it is still considered a “development in progress” technique. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The outcomes of 14 patients undergoing robotic right hepatectomy were analyzed and compared with the results of 20 laparoscopic right hepatectomies consecutively performed by the same young surgeon. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The overall mean operative time was less in robotic arm (425 ± 139 vs. 565.18 ± 183.73, <i>p</i> = 0.022) and the estimated blood loss was similar (335.15 ± 139.8 vs. 423.95 ± 205.15, <i>p</i> = 0.17); no blood transf…

Robotic Pancreaticoduodenectomy: Technical Considerations

2017

Robotic surgery can help to overcome some technical limitations of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy thanks to EndoWrist instrumentations and the 3D view. Despite the potential benefits, its employment is still low and controversial. We focused on some important technical details crucial for a safe robotic pancreatectomy. After performing 52 robotic pancreatic resections that included 10 pancreatoduodenectomies, the authors describe their technique. The review of literature on robotic and laparoscopic duodenopancreatectomy is also performed in order to evaluate possible benefits of the robotic platform. We describe the step-by-step surgical procedure, analyzing all possible troubleshooti…

Transsacral rectocele following combined neurinoma resection: A case report

2015

Highlights • Case of a combined (transsacral and laparoscopic) resection of a presacral tumour. • First described case of a transsacral rectocele two years after this procedure. • Possibility of laparoscopic defect repair of transsacral defects.

Laparoscopic Sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of Vaginal Vault Prolapse and Rectocele. Retrospective Study of 85 cases

Robotic versus laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for apical prolapse: a case-control study

2016

The apical prolapse has always been considered the most complex of the defects of the pelvic floor, for both the difficulty of the surgical corrective technique and for the high post-surgical recurrence rate. Today, the laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy can be considered the standard treatment for apical prolapse. In the last years, several author performed robotic sacrocolpopexy, obtaining positive results. So, we developed a case-control study in order to compare the surgical outcome of robotic group with a control group of laparoscopic approach in patients with symptomatic apical pro-lapsed between January 2015 and December 2015 at University Hospital Policlinico “P. Giaccone” and Ospedali Riu…

Salaparuta

2008

Ricostruita a seguito del terremoto in un sito diverso dall’originario, Salaparuta era una città di antica origine e aveva raggiunto un assetto urbano compiuto tra Cinquecento e Settecento, sotto il dominio feudale dei Paruta e degli Alliata. Uno degli edifici più significativi del centro era la chiesa madre, con la sua originale facciata a torre con campanile, risalente alla metà del Settecento.

Salaparuta

2013

SALAPARUTA (Menzil Salah, Casale della Signora – Paruta) Comune agricolo della provincia di Trapani (a 66 km dal capoluogo sulla strada provinciale Gibellina – Santa Margherita Belice) Salaparuta, attualmente con 1.781 abitanti, è una delle città rifondate in sito diverso dall’originario in seguito al terremoto del 1968 che la distrusse completamente (causando 28 morti, 66 feriti gravi e la devastazione di poco più di un migliaio di abitazioni e di tutto il patrimonio storico-architettonico). Nella notte fra il 14 e il 15 gennaio del 1968 il vecchio centro di Salaparuta, che allora contava poco più di tremila residenti (dai 2.943 censiti nel 1961 contro i 3.199 del 1951, poi scesi a 2.093 n…

Mapping electron-beam-injected trapped charge with scattering scanning near-field optical microscopy.

2016

Scattering scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) has been demonstrated as a valuable tool for mapping the optical and optoelectronic properties of materials with nanoscale resolution. Here we report experimental evidence that trapped electric charges injected by an electron beam at the surface of dielectric samples affect the sample-dipole interaction, which has direct impact on the s-SNOM image content. Nanoscale mapping of the surface trapped charge holds significant potential for the precise tailoring of the electrostatic properties of dielectric and semiconductive samples, such as hydroxyapatite, which has particular importance with respect to biomedical applications. The meth…

Laparoscopy in Acute Mesenteric Ischemia

2011

Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a life-threatening vascular disease which often requires emergent surgical treatment. Early diagnosis and immediate intervention to adequately restore the mesenteric blood flow are mandatory to prevent bowel necrosis and patient death. The underlying cause is varied and the prognosis depends on pathologic findings [1, 2].
