Dolor abdominal crónico en la infancia : Hacia la consulta de alta resolución en Atención Primaria
2004
El dolor abdominal crónico genera multitud de visitas tanto en Atención Primaria como en el hospital. El trabajo muestra cómo puede ser enfocado este proceso en la consulta de Atención Primaria. Nosotros planteamos pautas diagnósticas del dolor abdominal crónico mediante analítica y estudios de imagen individualizados según las indicaciones. Nuestro objetivo es iniciar el diagnóstico y el tratamiento del dolor abdominal crónico, convirtiendo la consulta de Atención Primaria en consulta de alta resolución para esta patología. Chronic abdominal pain causes constant visits of patients in primary and hospital care. This work shows how to approach this process in Primary Care. We show the diagno…
Clinical Recommendation Radical Trachelectomy for Fertility Preservation in Patients With Early-Stage Cervical Cancer
2012
Radical trachelectomy (RT) is a fertility-sparing procedure with the aim to provide adequate oncological safety to patients with cervical cancer while preserving their fertility. In the current review, indications, development of the procedure, technical aspects, preoperative and postoperative management, and oncological, fertility, and obstetric outcomes are discussed and studied with respect to whether the procedure is performed abdominally or vaginally. Complications of RT, staging, and more conservative alternatives to RT are discussed as well. A systematic MEDLINE search was performed, which yielded 218 articles, of which 75 were selected for further analysis based on the number of pat…
Mesh complications following prolapse surgery: management and outcome.
2011
Abstract Objective This is a description of complications following prolapse surgery with the use of alloplastic materials, the management and outcome. Study design 54 women have been referred to Mainz, urogynecology referral center due to complications following mesh-augmented prolapse surgery. Results The complaints who lead to the admission are expressed by the new terminology and standardized classification for complications arising directly from the insertion of prostheses and grafts in female pelvic floor surgery [1] . Pain (66.7%), mesh erosion (55.6%) and vaginal discharge (48.1%) were the most frequent complaints. Revision was performed after a median time of 27.2 months post mesh …
EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF CONTI- NUOUS PREPERITONEAL WOUND INFILTRATION ON POSTOPERATIVE RESPIRATORY PERFORMANCE IN PATIENTS WHO UNDERWENT MAJOR A…
2013
Aim. According to the recent literature, continuous pre-perito- neal wound infiltration with local anaesthetics (CPWI) is an effective analgesic therapy in patients who undergo major abdominal surgery 1. Although it is not inferior to other com- monly used techniques in postoperative analgesia, many studies report conflictive results about its efficacy compared to them 2. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of CPWI on the postoperative respiratory performance in patients after major abdominal surgery. Materials and methods. From June 2011 to July 2012, a total of 14 patients have been evaluated. All patients were treated using the protocol generally used in our Department for t…
Comparison of Flow Measurement by 4D Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging and by Particles Image Velocimetry on Phantom of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
2016
International audience; Predicting the rupture of Aortic Aneurysms is a complex problem that interests, from several decades, many researchers. The works on this issue are very complex, involving both the study of mechanical behavior of the artery as the flow of blood. The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique allows to obtain anatomic information of the arteries, than the flow inside thereof. The goal of this study is an inter comparison betweenflow data from MRI and those obtained by Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). An experimental device simulating hemodynamic circulation is used. Initially in order to validate the device, the flow in a cylindrical glass tube is measured by these t…

Emergency endovascular repair of an acute aortocaval fistula with AAA: Case report and review of the literature
2009
A 72-year-old man with sudden abdominal pain and congestive cardiac failure presented a high-flow aortocaval fistula with a large abdominal aortic aneurysm as detected by Duplex ultrasonography and computed tomography angiography. As the patient’s multiple comorbidities precluded open repair, an emergency left aortouniiliac stent-graft deployment and femoro-femoral crossover bypass grafting were performed. Notwithstanding, incomplete exclusion of the fistula due to a small inflow from the contralateral iliac axis, the patient’s cardiac overload decreased with a rapid resolution of cardiac failure, allowing for a staged ligation of the right iliac artery with a complete occlusion of the aort…

A DISSECTION’S GUIDE TO HUMAN ABDOMINAL CAVITY
2020
The purpose of this article is to show the abdominal cavity’s dissection method. In the summer of 2018 a group of students from the University of Palermo, who had already taken the anatomy exam and had a good knowledge of English, went for a period of two weeks to do a dissection course at the University of Malta. The students dissected skin, subcutaneously, muscle layers, parietal peritoneum and abdominal organs. This work proves to be a small dissection guide for young medical students who want to learn the main bases of dissection and important information for topographical anatomy.
TRANS-FUSIMO – A novel system for treatment support for FUS applications in moving abdominal organs
2018
Computer based treatemnt support for FUS therapy of moviving abdominal organs is essential due to great intrinsic challenges: the target moves due to breathing and may be occluded by the rib cage. In the EU project TRANS-FUSIMO we have developed a sophisticated software system that connects to a FUS transducer and an MRI. This enables physicians to conduct safe, effective and efficient ablation of tumors in the moving liver.
