A suspected case of hunting accident. Case report
2010
Nowadays, the use of molecular biology in forensics has made it possible to identify human victim and sometimes even the circumstances under which the death occurred through. In our case, a corpse of a 50-years old man with a gunshot wound was found in the woods. The suspected murderer declared that it had been a hunting accident while he shot a wild boar. During the autopsy, a bullet (Borra-bullet Gualandi, 32 gr) was found in the abdomen of the victim. The authors investigated the presence of boar and victim blood both on the bullet, in order to substantiate the thesis of the hunting accident. Laboratory investigations underscored the presence of human cellular material on the bullet, whi…

Vision-related function in the COPERNICUS and GALILEO trials
2014
Purpose To examine the impact of intravitreal aflibercept (IVT-AFL) injection on the 25-item National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI VFQ) in the COPERNICUS and GALILEO trials. Methods Patients (pts) with macular oedema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion received IVT-AFL 2 mg (IVT-AFL 2q4) or sham monthly for 24 weeks. After Week 24 (W24) in COPERNICUS all pts were eligible to receive IVT-AFL based on visual and anatomical outcomes (IVT-AFL 2q4+PRN, sham+IVT-AFL PRN). In GALILEO, sham-treated pts received sham tx until W52. The NEI VFQ was administered at baseline (BL), W24 and W52. Total and subscale scores were compared between groups. W24 data were integrated an…
Professional liability in oral surgery : legal and medical study of 63 court sentences
2010
Objectives: Dentistry, like all other health care professions, has in recent years been subjected to an increase in legal pressure by patients. Nevertheless, there are areas of activity in dentistry in which, whether because of their frequency or due to the importance of the damage and sequelae claimed, this legal pressure is greater. Amongst these areas of activity is that of oral surgery. Study design: To be meticulously analyzed in this report are 63 sentences issued by courts of second instance or higher levels regarding lawsuits involving oral surgery. The data collection file includes 13 variables. The descriptive and comparative statistical study by cross-referencing certain variable…

Post-cesarean necrotizing fasciitis caused by surgical site infection
2017
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare, but rapidly progressive, potentially life-threatening soft tissue infection, with an incidence of 0.15-0.55 cases per 100,000 population. the gynecological-obstetric literature describes cases of NF due to surgical site infection (SSi) after cesarean delivery. this article discusses issues in the medicolegal evaluation of NF and the importance of prophylactic procedures, risk management protocols, and prompt diagnosis of this condition. two cases of post-cesarean NF due to SSi are reported. in both cases the responsibility lay with the hospitals and the medical staff owing to failure to adopt adequate SSi prophylaxis and to establish a timely diagnosis …

Lithotripsy of gallbladder stones in 1992: Improved indications and actual results
1992
ESWL of gallbladder stones and subsequent adjuvant oral dissolution is a safe and comfortable therapy of symptomatic cholecystolithiasis. This method is limited on highly selected 10 to 15% of patients. Recent experience indicates that the ideal indication is given in patients with radiolucent solitary gallstones (diameter ≤2 cm) which are harboured in a gallbladder with unimpaired contractility. 1 year after ESWL 80% of those patients present with a stone free gallbladder. Computed tomography of gallstones may probably improve selection of patients and therapeutic success.
