Pressure-Induced Growth (PIG) of Atretic Esophagus: A Contigent Management for High-Risk Esophageal Atresia

1986

The management of uncomplicated esophageal atresia is a straightforward procedure consisting of thoracotomy with anastomosis of the atretic segments and ligature of any tracheoesophageal fistula present. However, besides the rareness of isolated esophageal atresia, our observations in the past few years show increasing incidence of the anomaly in association with premature births and other malformations which are usually incompatible with life. Aspiration pneumonia resulting from reflux of gastric content through a lower tracheoesophageal fistula, rather than the overflow of saliva from an upper atretic pouch, also threatens the life of an otherwise healthy neonate with esophageal atresia.

The Use of infrared thermography in the study of sport and exercise physiology

2016

Infrared thermography (IRT) is considered an upcoming, promising methodology in the field of exercise physiology. Skin temperature distribution derives from muscular activity, skin blood flow as well as perspiration patterns in specific body parts. This chapter aims to provide a general overview on the literature about the study of the skin temperature response to exercise assessed by means of IRT and its relationship with other thermoregulatory variables, exercise characteristics and performance factors.

Ethical issues: invasive ventilation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

2012

The first man was a school headmaster. By his eye-gaze system he is able to order coins to enlarge his 10-year collection. His grandchildren extort presents from him in exchange for help. The second was a prefect and even now insists that the flowers in the garden represent the national flag. In spite of his gastrostomy, he still likes to sip his espresso from porcelain cups. The ventilation circuit 24/7 has not changed his custom to read the newspapers and listen to classical music in the living room. That girl is a young mum. She is fed by a tube, but she always makes her little child laugh with the dialectal phrases that she writes on the screen. The surgeon, every day in his electric wh…

Real-world EUROCRINE® registry data challenge the reliability of Bethesda cytopathology for thyroid surgery indication

2021

Abstract Objectives Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is recommended by international guidelines for the preoperative evaluation of suspicious thyroid nodules >1 cm. Despite robust evidence from endocrine centers demonstrating the key role of FNAC results for the indication of surgery, the method is not routinely used in European clinics. The database EUROCRINE®, which was introduced in 2015 with the scope of registering operations of the endocrine system, allows for a large-scale analysis of the current service reality in Europe concerning FNAC use and associated accuracy. Methods Operations performed to “exclude malignancy”, registered from January 2015 to December 2018 in EUROCRI…

Akute oder chronische Transplantat-Abstoßung? - HRCT des Thorax bei Patienten nach Lungentransplantation

2001

Purpose: Aim of the study was to evaluate the postoperative changes in patients with single (SLTX) or double lung transplantation (DLTX) with HRCT and to correlate those findings with the clinical diagnosis. Material and methods: 29 patients with SLTX (n = 14) or DLTX (n=15) were observed for more than 6 years after transplantation by HRCT (n =82). CT examinations were performed in inspiration and expiration (n=70) with a slice thickness of 1 mm and a feed of 10 mm. The image material was evaluated by 2 experienced radiologists in consensus. Criteria for acute rejection at HRCT were: ground glass opacities and focal air trapping in expiration. Criteria for chronic transplant rejection were:…
