Die kombinierte operative und radiotherapeutische Behandlung (CORT) von Beckenwandrezidiven: Erfahrungsbericht nach 3 Jahren
1993
CORT has been developed to treat recurrent gynaecological malignancies infiltrating the pelvic wall unilaterally. The surgical part consists of: (i) staging laparotomy/lymphadenectomy, (ii) maximum tumour resection at the pelvic wall and exenteration of infiltrated central pelvic organs, (iii) implantation of guiding tubes on the residual tumour/tumour bed on the pelvic wall, (iv) pelvic wall plasty with muscle, musculocutaneous and omentum flaps, (v) operative reconstruction of bowel, bladder and perineo-vulvo-vaginal functions. Radiation is performed as interstitial high dose rate brachytherapy through the implanted tubes. Patients without prior pelvic irradiation receive in addition, who…
Results of the smooth-muscle fold-over double-plasty (SMFD)
1986
Since 1980, when we developed substitute for the internal anal sphicter, the smooth-muscle fold-over double-plasty (SMFD-plasty), we have operated on seven children using this method, usually in combination with the pull-through procedure, and on five children after one or more previous operations. Since 1983, 11 cases with previous operations have undergone the modified “door-wing” SMFD-plasty. The results are excellent if the operation is used in primary combination with the pull-through procedure or if the “door-wing” modification is combined with reconstruction of the pelvic floor. It is also necessary that all cases undergo a biofeedback conditioning program.
Amputación abdominoperineal extraelevadora en posición prono
2014
The Miles operation is every day more in the limelight. The abdominoperineal resection compared to anterior resection results in increased rate of circumferential resection margin (CRM) infiltration, increased iatrogenic tumor perforation rate and poorer quality of the mesorectum. These worse results may be caused by excessive dissection between the distal mesorectum and the plane of the levator ani and the consequent "resection waist" or "cone" effect in the specimen. A wider excision of the pelvic floor muscles, known as extraelevator abdominoperineal resection (ELAPE), would provide a "cylindrical" specimen which would hypothetically reduce the risk of tumor perforation and CRM infiltrat…
Operative Therapie bei Genitaldeszensus der Frau: Pro und Kontra der Verwendung von Mesh-Materialien
2006
Die gegenwärtige Entwicklung unterschiedlicher Mesh-Materialien hat zu einer Verbesserung der individuellen operativen Sanierung des Genitalprolapses geführt. Makroporöse monofilamentäre synthetische Netze scheinen geeignet zur Verwendung beim Rezidivprolaps oder bei ausgeprägten Beckenbodeninsuffizienzen zu sein. Die Verwendung von biologischen Netzen zeigt eine deutlich bessere Verträglichkeit mit weniger Infektionen oder Erosionen, bislang ist jedoch nicht das Problem der langfristigen Haltbarkeit geklärt. Die operative Korrektur des Genitalprolapses muss alle Risiken und Nutzen zur Verbesserung der Lebensqualität abwägen, hier können Mesh- Materialien deutliche Vorteile gerade in der Re…
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi: experience in treatment of 3,278 patients using the Siemens Lithostar and Lithostar Plus.
1991
Between March 1986 and June 1989, 3,278 patients with upper urinary tract calculi were treated at our medical center with the Lithostar lithotriptor. The stones were located in the calices in 41.9% of the cases, renal pelvis in 25.7% and ureter in 32.4%. Perirenal hematoma was noted in 0.5% of the patients but this resolved spontaneously within a few days. Auxiliary procedures were performed in 37.3% of the cases, including Double-J stent and ureteral catheter in 26.8%, ureterorenoscopy in 2.1%, percutaneous nephrostomy in 1.6%, Zeiss loop in 4.3% and percutaneous nephrolithotripsy in 3.5%. Of the treatments 83.1% were performed without general or regional anesthesia. Followup after 3 month…
Transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis presenting as a renal abscess.
2002
We report on a 76-year-old woman who was diagnosed with a primary renal abscess of the left kidney. After percutaneous drainage, no clinical improvement was observed. Surgical exploration and nephrectomy were performed. The histologic evaluation revealed an unsuspected transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis, which had been misinterpreted as a primary renal abscess. Malignancy must be considered as an underlying cause for the formation of a renal abscess, especially if no other predisposing factors such as diabetes mellitus or urinary stones are present.
Influence of induced intrauterine diuresis on the upper urinary tract
1993
There are many possible etiologies of sonographically detected dilatation of the renal pelvis and the ureter during pregnancy. The observation that fetal ureteral dilatation occurs with congenital diabetes insipidus has led to the suspicion of at least a modifying influence resulting from intrauterine diuresis. To increase fetal diuresis experimentally, Wistar rats were treated with 100 mg chlorthalidon and 40 mg furosemide per kg bodyweight per day. The animal experiment was performed with four groups. Group I was treated during the entire course of pregnancy. Group II during the first half and Group III during the second half. Group C was the untreated control group. For morphometric inve…
The Benefit of Multislice CT in the Emergency Room Management of Polytraumatized Patients
2006
The early treatment of polytraumatized patients needs an effective and standardized approach. Reducing time requirements for the primary diagnostic evaluation is a major concern in the early phase of polytrauma management. Multislice-CT (MSCT) is a quick and reliable method for the initial diagnostic evaluation. Computed tomography provides more detailed and more consistent information than conventional radiography. It has the great advantage of allowing rapid examination of the head, vertebral column, chest, abdomen and pelvis during one single examination. The CT-suite needs to be adequately equipped for resuscitation and reanimation, which is done parallel to the radiological investigati…
Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of vaginal vault prolapse: 8 years experience
2009
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term results of a laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for the treatment of vaginal vault prolapse. Study design Between January 1999 and January 2007, 165 laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy procedures, using a polypropylene mesh, were performed on women affected by vaginal vault prolapse. Intraoperative complications included: 5 bladder injuries and 3 sigmoid perforations. Postoperative complications included: 10 cases of fever, 5 cases of lumbosciatica, 15 cases of detrusor overactivity, 2 cases of vaginal haematoma, and 5 cases of minimal dispareunia. At 1, 6 and 12 months after surgery, a clinical evaluation was carried out for all patie…
Widespread Pain Hypersensitivity and Lumbopelvic Impairments in Women Diagnosed with Endometriosis.
2021
Abstract Objective To explore hypersensitivity to pain and musculoskeletal impairments in the lumbopelvic area in women with and without endometriosis. Methods This cross-sectional study included 66 women (41 women with endometriosis and 25 healthy women). Pain and related catastrophizing thoughts were assessed through a numeric rating scale, pressure pain thresholds (PPTs), the slump test, and the Pain Catastrophizing Scale. Lumbopelvic muscles were evaluated through ultrasound imaging, flexor/extensor resistance tests, and the lumbopelvic stability test. Results Women with endometriosis showed increased self-reported intensity of current pelvic pain (CuPP), reduced local PPTs (42.8–64.7% …
