Perineal Excision of a Large Angiomyxoma in a Young Woman Following Magnetic Resonance and Angiographic Imaging
2001
Abstract Background. Aggressive angiomyxomas are rare, arise from connective tissue of the perineum or the lower pelvis, and affect predominantly young women. Case. We describe an unusual case of aggressive angiomyxoma in which the perineal approach was possible owing to MRI scanning and selective angiography indications. Conclusion. In cases of large aggressive angiomyxomas these diagnostic procedures should make it possible to decide which operative route might be best for the patient.
High/low-volume center experience predicts outcome of AMS 800 in male stress incontinence: Results of a large middle European multicenter case series.
2020
AIM To analyze the influence of implantation volume of artificial sphincters (AMS 800) on outcome in a large central European multicenter cohort study. METHODS As part of the DOMINO (Debates on Male Incontinence) project, the surgical procedures and outcomes were retrospectively analyzed in a total of 473 patients who received an artificial sphincter (AMS 800) between 2010 and 2012. Clinics that implanted at least 10 AMS 800 per year were defined as high-volume centers. RESULTS Sixteen centers had a mean rate of 9.54 AMS 800/y of which five clinics were identified as high-volume centers. They implanted significantly more double cuffs (55% vs 12.1%; P < .001), used the perineal approach sign…
Rektumprolaps bei Erwachsenen - Ursache, Diagnostik, Therapie
2005
Despite progress in modern surgery, the choice of the surgical procedure of rectal prolapse is regarded with controversy. Selection criteria between the abdominal or perineal approach or between rectopexy and resection rectopexy are not yet proven. This article gives a review of the literature about rectal prolapse and an analysis of the outcome of posterior rectopexy and resection rectopexy--partly conventionally and partly laparoscopically--in 25 patients with rectal prolapse III degrees and IV degrees. All except for one patient were examined during a mean follow-up of 5.5 (3.1) years for the rectopexy group and 2.1 (0.7) years for the resection rectopexy group. Recurrence occurred in on…
