Comparative ergonomic workflow and user experience analysis of MRI versus fluoroscopy-guided vascular interventions: an iliac angioplasty exemplar ca…

2014

A methodological framework is introduced to assess and compare a conventional fluoroscopy protocol for peripheral angioplasty with a new magnetic resonant imaging (MRI)-guided protocol. Different scenarios were considered during interventions on a perfused arterial phantom with regard to time-based and cognitive task analysis, user experience and ergonomics. Three clinicians with different expertise performed a total of 43 simulated common iliac angioplasties (9 fluoroscopic, 34 MRI-guided) in two blocks of sessions. Six different configurations for MRI guidance were tested in the first block. Four of them were evaluated in the second block and compared to the fluoroscopy protocol. Relevant…

Ureteroiliac Artery Fistula in a Young Woman with Short Bowel Syndrome for Radiation Enteritis

2010

Ureteral-iliac artery fistula is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication, typically occurring after radiation therapy in already surgically treated cancer patients. This case report describes the diagnostic challenges and the successful management, with the positioning of an intra-arterial prosthesis, of a fistula between the internal iliac artery and the left ureter presenting as massive hematuria in a young woman with history of total colectomy and pelvic radiotherapy for rectal cancer and subsequent wide ileal resections and bilateral ureteral stent positioning for radiation enteritis. Ureteroiliac artery fistulas require a prompt diagnosis and intervention, to avoid life th…

Renal Allograft Compartment Syndrome: Is It Possible to Prevent?

2016

Renal allograft compartment syndrome (RACS) is a complication characterized by increased pressure over 15 to 20 mm Hg of the iliac fossa site of transplanted kidney that can lead to a reduction of the blood supply to the graft, resulting in organ ischemia. This study aims to evaluate, through a review of the literature, the incidence, detection, treatment, and possible prevention of RACS. The incidence of this complication, which appears generally in the immediate post-transplantation period, is currently approximately 1% to 2% and is underestimated because of poor nosography for the presence of symptoms common to other post-transplantation complications. Doppler ultrasound is indispensable…

Para-aortic lymphadenectomy in abnormal common iliac bifurcation

2021

A 60-year-old-woman was diagnosed with serous endometrial cancer and on pre-operative CT there was evidence of a higher confluence of the common iliac veins in the inferior vena cava ([Figure 1][1]). Due to the presence of ascites (800 mL) and of a neoplastic ileal nodule at laparoscopy, to avoid

Análsis del grado de implantación de la conciliación de la vida familiar, personal y profesional en la empresa española: Antecedentes y Resultados

2016

RESUMEN. La presente Tesis Doctoral tiene como objetivos generales, por una parte, indagar y profundizar en el conocimiento acerca de los antecedentes que explican el grado de implantación y uso de las políticas de conciliación VFPP en las pymes españolas, y por otra, establecer los resultados que se derivan de su aplicación. Se trata de un tema de creciente interés para la Academia y objeto de recientes investigaciones en el ámbito particular de la comunidad académica española. En esta investigación se ha estudiado el papel que cumple, bien como barrera, bien como facilitador, la actitud de los directivos ante la implantación y uso de este tipo de políticas; la influencia positiva o negati…

High frequency of lumbar fusion in patients denied surgical treatment of the sacroiliac joint.

2019

Purpose: Effective treatment of medical conditions relies on proper diagnosis. Clinical trials show the safety and effectiveness of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fusion in patients with chronic SI joint dysfunction. To what extent is the condition under recognised? Objective: To determine whether under recognition of SIJ pain affects healthcare trajectories in Spanish patients with low back pain. Methods: Retrospective study of characteristics and consequences of 189 patients with persistent SIJ pain seen in an outpatient neurosurgery clinic. Results: Patients with SIJ pain who were denied surgical treatment had a longer pain duration, higher likelihood of prior lumbar fusion, and a high rate (63%…

Iliosacral Screw Osteosynthesis

2017

Fragility fractures of the anterior pelvic ring are very often combined with fractures of the posterior pelvic ring. The large majority of the posterior fractures is situated in the sacral ala. Non-operative therapy may be cumbersome in patients with a combination of an anterior with a posterior pelvic ring fracture. Any surgical therapy should be as less invasive as possible. Iliosacral screw fixation is a minimal invasive technique. Variations of the upper sacral anatomy make optimal iliosacral screw placement challenging. The vestibule or isthmus is the narrowest part of the bony corridor from the lateral ilium to the S1 sacral body. It always points towards anterior and superior. The wh…

Análisis de parejas y familias mixtas: Estudio de las competencias interculturales, estrés y funcionamiento familiar desde una perspectiva psicoeduca…

2022

Los flujos migratorios han originado importantes cambios en la sociedad española en lo que respecta a nuevas formas de uniones familiares, como es el caso de las parejas mixtas. Las uniones mixtas, interculturales y/o interétnicas han sido valoradas hasta el momento como un indicador de buena acogida e “integración social” en la sociedad, si bien no es un resultado que se haya demostrado en la literatura científica y existen discrepancias con esta afirmación. La mayoría de los estudios indican que en las parejas mixtas la satisfacción marital y la posibilidad de integración en la cultura de acogida pueden ser desarrolladas a través de la pareja. Estudios previos han llevado a pensar que deb…
