Giant uterus in a patient with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Report of a case

2022

Introduction: Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome is an uncommon congenital disease also called angio-osteodystrophy syndrome for its typical disorders characterized by abnormal growth of the soft tissues and bones and vascular malformations. Case report: In this report, we present a rare case of a 46-year-old nulliparous woman with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. She suffered from an abnormal uterine bleeding accompanied by severe anemia with need for multiple blood transfusions. At the time of admission, physical examination revealed port-wine stains and varicose veins on her lower limbs and hypertrophy of left lower extremity. We carried out an open bilateral hysteroannexectomy. Histopathology examin…

Evaluation of different transvaginal sonographic diagnostic parameters in women with postmenopausal bleeding

1998

Objective To determine whether the accuracy of transvaginal sonography to detect endometrial pathology is enhanced by assessing endometrial morphology and the regularity of the endometrial border in addition to measurement of endometrial thickness in women with postmenopausal bleeding. Design and methods A total of 159 women with post-menopausal bleeding were included in a prospective study performed at the Clinic of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Mainz. The results obtained on transvaginal sonographic assessment of the endometrium were compared with the histological evaluation of the operative endometrial specimen. Results A cut-off level for endometrial thickness of 5 mm had a s…

Zur therapie der �sophagusvarizenblutung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (West) ? Ergebnisse einer Urnfrage

1991

An 1076 chirurgischen und internistischen Abteilung in der BRD (West) wurde eine Umfrage zur Behandlung der Osophagusvarizenblutung durchgefuhrt. Es uberwiegt die Akutsklerosierung bzw. die Ballonsondenbehandlung mit nachfolgender Sklerosierung bei der aktiven Blutung. Die abdominelle Sperroperation wird bei der konservativ nicht stillbaren Blutung noch vor dem portokavalen Notshunt bevorzugt. Betablocker werden vor allem in internistischen Abteilungen zur Rezidivprophylaxe eingesetzt. Erst nach mehrfacher Rezidivblutung trotz Sklerosierung sehen etwa die Halfte der Abteilungen eine Indikation zum elektiven Shunt. Der distale splenorenale Shunt nach Warren and die portokavale Anastomose dom…

Immediate post-extraction implants placed in acute periapical infected sites with immediate prosthetic provisionalization : a 1-year prospective coho…

2020

Background Few studies have reported the outcomes of immediate placement at infected post-extraction sites. The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiological outcomes of immediately placed implants with immediate prosthetic provisionalization in sockets with or without acute periapical pathology. Material and Methods A total of 100 patients with immediately placed implants with immediate provisionalization and 1- year of follow up were included (50 patients with acute periapical pathology and a control group of 50 patients without acute periapical pathology). Clinical parameters (bleeding on probing, buccal keratinized mucosa width, clinical recession, and probing depth) and ra…

Zirconium dioxide implants as an alternative to titanium: A systematic review

2020

Background: This systematic review evaluates the available scientific literature to demonstrate the aesthetic and clinical benefits and to determine the survival and the success of zirconium dioxide implants concerning titanium implants. Material and Methods: The electronic databases were searched until January 2020. Outcome measures were pink aesthetic score (PAS), white aesthetic score (WAS), bleeding on probing (BOP) and probing depth (PD). The addressed PICO question was: In partially edentulous patients in the upper-anterior sector, do zirconium dioxide implants provide aesthetic benefits over conventional titanium implants? Results: In the 15 articles included after the screening were…

Oral Communication

2012

Inherited factor VII (FVII) deficiency is the most common of the rare autosomal recessive bleeding disorders (RBD), with an estimated prevalence of 1 per 300,000 in European countries.1,2 It is likely that the prevalence is higher in those countries where consanguineous marriages are frequent.We here report STER study results on 112 evaluable enrolled cases

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…

STUDIO E VALIDAZIONE DI SISTEMI PER L’IDENTIFICAZIONE E IL MONITORAGGIO DI PARAMETRI BIOMEDICI ATTI ALLA PREVENZIONE DI EVENTI INDESIDERATI E ALL’ASS…

L’aumento delle patologie cronico-degenerative nella popolazione mondiale ha comportato un numero sempre maggiore di individui richiedenti assistenza sanitaria, generando, nell’ambito delle realtà ospedaliere, diverse problematiche relative al miglioramento della qualità di vita dei pazienti, ai costi e alla gestione di un numero sempre crescente di soggetti ammalati. Il trattamento sanitario e la ricerca di base si sono pertanto orientati verso la prevenzione delle condizioni che predispongono i soggetti ai peggioramenti clinici e ai ricoveri ospedalieri, puntando sia su nuovi sistemi indossabili di monitoraggio per individuare precocemente i segni di peggioramento, sia su sistemi che poss…

Small bowel gastrointestinal stromal tumor presenting with gastrointestinal bleeding in patient with type 1 Neurofibromatosis: Management and laparos…

2021

Highlights • A multidisciplinary team is mandatory for the correct management of hemorrhagic GIST and its complications. • There is a well-known association between type 1 Neurofibromatosis and GIST. • Type 1 Neurofibromatosis-GIST and sporadic GIST have different behaviour. • In case of localised and resectable GIST surgical treatment is the mainstay. • Laparoscopic approach, if performed correctly, is safe and effective with better short-term outcomes then open surgery.

Management of Bleeding Complications in Virtual Reality Laparoscopy

2019

The aim of this study was to compare the impact of induced bleeding complication training with regular training on a virtual reality laparoscopic (VRL) simulator. Although bleeding complications occur rarely during laparoscopic surgery, they usually arise without warning and may have severe consequences for the patient because complication management training is not currently widespread. Third-year medical students (n = 41) were randomly selected for 2 curricular courses on how to perform a bimanual task on a VRL simulator. Both the regular training group (RTG) and the induced bleeding complication training (ICT) group performed 2 regular training sessions and 9 training sessions. For the I…
