Gestación subrogada y dignidad de la mujer
2018
The situation of the surrogate pregnancy in Spain demands action by our legislators and / or our public authorities. The reason is that the current legal system in which there is a ban of the surrogacy contract is not being attended. In this issue an analysis of the situation in Spain and in other countries is made, to conclude from the right to the dignity of women, that possible actions could be taken to adapt the reality to the legal system.
Un espacio para la pérdida: una aproximación particularista al conflicto de valores
2017
A lo largo de esta tesis, defenderé una lectura de los conflictos de valores que asume la pérdida trágica como un hecho inevitable. Desde esta lectura, allí donde dos valores o demandas entran en tensión genuina, atesorar o responder a uno de ellos comporta renunciar al otro, sin que un premio ulterior compense el daño causado por la pérdida. Por más que un sujeto o una sociedad se esfuercen en buscar una resolución consoladora, es imposible proteger todos los valores en juego y atender a todas las necesidades que afloran en este tipo de situaciones. Por ello, si los valores involucrados en un conflicto tienen un peso central en la vida de las personas afectadas, esta tensión marcará de por…
Acceso a la Justicia de los Consumidores a través del ADR y del ODR
2018
El avance de las tecnologías de información y la comunicación nos ha llevado a cambiar nuestra forma de relacionarnos tanto entre nosotros, como con las administraciones. Además, la adquisición de bienes de consumo a través del medio online es cada día más importante para en la economía global y doméstica. Todo ello, llevó a la Unión Europea a la creación del llamado Mercado Único Digital, donde se estableció como uno de los objetivos prioritarios mejorar la tutela efectiva de los ciudadanos comunitarios que realizan compras a través de internet. El presente trabajo tiene por objeto realizar un análisis sobre las facilidades y dificultades que encuentran los consumidores a la hora de accede…
T2 Mapping of the Sacroiliac Joints in Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis
2020
Purpose: To test whether T2 mapping of the sacro-iliac joints (SIJs) might help identifying patients with spondyloarthritis. Method: This study included 20 biologic-naive patients with axial spondyloarthritis (10 females; mean age: 38 ± 9years; range, 19–47) and 27 controls (16 males; mean age = 39 ± 13years; range = 28–71) who prospectively underwent SIJs MRI at 1.5 T, including a multislice multiecho spin-echo sequence. Standard MRIs were reviewed to assess the SIJs according to the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria and SPondyloArthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) MRI index. T2 maps obtained from multiecho sequences were used to draw regions…
Incidence and severity of postthrombotic syndrome after iliofemoral thrombosis - results of the Iliaca-PTS - Registry.
2021
Summary: Background: Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and in particular, iliofemoral thrombosis (IFT) can lead to recurrent thrombosis and postthrombotic syndrome (PTS). Data on the prevalence, predictors and outcome of IFT are scarce. Patients and methods: We retrospectively searched our database of outpatients who had presented with DVT and IFT including the iliac veins from 2014 until 2017. In addition, we performed a prospective registry in a subgroup of patients with IFT. These patients received duplex ultrasound, magnetic resonance venography and measurement of symptom-free walking distance using a standardized treadmill ergometry. The severity of PTS was analyzed using the Villalta-Scal…
Joint involvement in psoriasis.
1974
21 unselected hospital patients with psoriasis (7 female, 14 males) were examined for joint lesions by clinical, roentgenological and scintigraphical methods (6 mCi99mTc-Pertechnetate, 4 mCi99mTc-Pyrophosphate). According to traditional concepts only 5 patients suffered from psoriatic arthropathy, in 8 other patients an extensive case history revealed some joint complaints.
Comparison of selective internal iliac pharmaco-angiography, penile brachial index and duplex sonography with pulsed Doppler analysis for the evaluat…
1990
AbstractBetween July 1987 and February 1988 selective internal iliac angiography was performed before and after intracavernous injection of papaverine plus phentolamine in 43 patients with erectile dysfunction. In 63% of the patients stenosis or occlusion of the pudendal artery was found. The penile brachial index was calculated and duplex sonography with pulsed Doppler analysis was performed in 23 patients. Angiography and penile brachial index correlated in only 39% of the patients, whereas selective internal iliac angiography and duplex sonography correlated in 91% (21 of 23). In 2 patients duplex sonography with pulsed Doppler analysis rendered better information about penile arterial p…
The intravascular ultrasound morphometry of iliac veins in subjects without severe chronic venous insufficiency and its implications for treatment in…
2019
Objectives The purpose of this study is to report the intravascular ultrasound morphometry of iliac veins and its relation to demographic and anthropometric factors in subjects without chronic venous insufficiency. Methods Thirty-three patients, without chronic venous insufficiency – qualified to great saphenous vein stripping due to unilateral, primary varicose veins – participated in the study. During the surgery, left and right external iliac veins, common iliac veins and inferior vena cava were interrogated with intravascular ultrasound. The morphometric analysis included measurement of a cross-sectional area at normal, non-stenosed vein segments (ref-CSA) and at the point of the most p…
PTFE mesh in renal allograft compartment syndrome.
2006
We report a case of anuria in a 42-year-old female kidney transplant patient that occurred secondary to extrinsic compression from a large kidney being placed extraperitoneally in a small iliac fossa. Prompt reexploration in the immediate postoperative period resulted in salvage of the graft with restoration of kidney function. The abdominal wall was reconstructed using prosthetic mesh, which decreased the compartment pressure within the iliac fossa sufficiently to allow the renal vein patency and the kidney perfusion. We think that this tension-free surgical technique should be applied in those cases in which the retroperitoneal space is less than the size of the kidney to avoid renal allo…
Radiological analysis, operative management and functional outcome of open book pelvic lesions: a 13-year cohort study.
2011
Abstract We present the clinical and radiological outcome of a 13-year cohort study of 38 open book pelvic lesions. All patients were treated in one Level I Trauma centre. In the posterior pelvis, sacro-iliac diastasis was seen in 31 patients, sacral fracture in 7. In all patients with sacro-iliac diastasis, the pubic bone was inferiorly displaced on the primary ap pelvic overview on the side of injury. All but one patient was treated with open reduction and internal fixation of the symphysis pubis. Additional stabilization of the posterior pelvis was done in 9 patients. 32 patients were seen after a median follow up of 84 months. Majeed score and SF-36 questionnaire were used. Functional o…
