Ultrasound-guided spinal fracture repositioning

1998

The management of narrowing spinal fragments in the operative treatment of spinal fractures remains an open question, in particular when the procedure is performed by a posterior approach. This article describes the use of intraoperative ultrasonography during spinal surgery. From 1990 to 1997, 116 spinal fractures were treated operatively at our clinic. Stabilization of the spine was achieved with the AO fixateur interne and the AO USS, respectively (Synthes, D-79224, Umkirch, Germany). For 60 cases who had a fractured posterior vertebral surface dislocated into the spinal canal, we used intraoperative ultrasonography to monitor the repositioning of the narrowing fragments. The patients un…

Acute aortic dissection

2011

An acute aortic syndrome with simultaneous presence of a penetrating aortic ulcer, an intramural haematoma, a thoracic aortic dissection and an abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture has not previously been reported. Herein, we describe our experience with a patient treated by endovascular means with an 8-year follow-up.

Prevalence and Clinical Outcomes for Patients With ALK Gene Rearrangement in Europe: Preliminary Results from the European Thoracic Oncology Platform…

2012

ABSTRACT Background The prevalence of ALK gene rearrangement (ALK+) in European patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unknown. The Lungscape project provides a platform to evaluate its expression and clinical significance in a large cohort of patients with resected NSCLC from 13 European sites in 11 countries. Methods Participating sites retrospectively identified cases of NSCLC with clinical demographic and outcome data, and available tissue for research according to predefined protocol criteria. Local ethical and regulatory approvals were adhered to. Clinical data were entered to a central, secure database. Accepted cases on the basis of completeness of clinical data were as…

Prospective evaluation of parathyroid graft function after total parathyroidectomy and heterotopic autotransplantation in renal hyperparathyroidism b…

1998

The value of gradients for intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the assessment of graft function after total parathyroidectomy/autotransplantation for renal hyperparathyroidism was evaluated in a prospective follow-up study. Altogether 99 patients who underwent operation from August 1, 1987 to December 31, 1996 were prospectively investigated and reexamined postoperatively, including analyses of serum calcium, alkaline phosphatase, and intact PTH in the antecubital venous blood of both arms. The postoperative course is known for all patients. Of the 99 patients included in the study, 95 underwent one to nine reexaminations (median three) over follow-up periods of 1 month to 5 years (median 2…

Anwendungsm�glichkeiten der intraoperativen Sonographie

1983

Sonographie, Computertomographie, Angiographie und endoskopisch retrograde Cholangiopancreaticographie haben sich in der Allgemein- und Gefaschirurgie als wertvolle Untersuchungsmethoden etabliert. Schwierigkeiten bestehen jedoch manchmal in der Korrelation der Praoperativen Befunde mit dem intraoperativen Befund. Hier ist das Anwendungsgebiet der intraoperativen Sonographie (IOS) zu sehen. Sie bietet dem Chirurgen eine zusatzliche Information durch Darstellung von pathologischen Gefasprozessen, Kontrolle von Gefasanastomosen, intraoperative FlowMessung in Gefasen, Lokalisationsdiagnostik in parenchymatosen Organen. Die intraoperative Sonographie ist somit ein neues Instrument des Chirurgen…
