¿Es necesaria la quimio-radioterapia preoperatoria en todos los pacientes con cáncer del recto localmente avanzado? Análisis de una serie consecutiva…
2013
Antecedentes: actualmente la quimio-radioterapia preoperatoria es el método estándar de tratamiento de los pacientes con cáncer del recto localmente avanzado. Sin embargo, a partir de la estandarización de la técnica de la escisión total del mesorrecto, las recidivas locales se han reducido significativamente y algunos pacientes podrían evitar el sobretratamiento con quimio-radioterapia preoperatoria y su potencial efecto tóxico. El presente estudio ha sido diseñado con el objetivo de evaluar los factores predictivos de recidiva en una serie institucional de pacientes con cáncer rectal estadificado preoperatoriamente con ecografía rectal y/o resonancia magnética como cT2N+ o cT3 y tratados …
Analysis of high-frequency rotational angioplasty-induced echo contrast.
1991
During high-frequency rotational angioplasty (HFRA), myocardial contrast enhancement (echo contrast) was observed by means of two-dimensional echocardiography. In order to evaluate the echo contrast produced by HFRA, an in vitro experimental model was built using a cylinder with the HFRA catheter scanned in a water bath. The cylinder was filled with blood, mineral water, and distilled water. With a 2.5-MHz transducer, echograms were recorded and analyzed by video intensitometer, and the maximum intensity IUmax and persistence time P were calculated. Rotation frequencies of 20,000-200,000 rpm with 2.0--mm burrs and times of 10 s were tested. In another model, hyperbaric conditions for the sa…

Data from: Transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization (THD) with Doppler arterial identification versus classic hemorrhoidectomy: a retrospective analy…
2019
Purpose: Despite the minimally invasive nature of transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization (THD) with Doppler arterial identification procedures, hemorrhoidectomy is still considered the gold standard procedure for hemorrhoidal disease. However, the classical techniques of hemorrhoidectomy have a high rate of postoperative complications. The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and complications of these techniques used for grades II and III hemorrhoids. Methods: A retrospective (case-control) study was carried out from January 2009 to May 2014, and all patients undergoing surgical procedures for hemorrhoidal disease in two French clinics were considered. Application of…
Technique for Performing Rectoscopy
1979
After positioning of the patient (Figs. 1 and 11), the instrument is introduced into the anus. The anal canal runs diagonally toward the navel. This distance must be passed blindly. The instrument is therefore guided through this area with the help of the obturator, which is promptly removed after passage of the instrument through the anal canal.
The role of interventional radiology in the management of abnormally invasive placenta: a systematic review of current evidences
2020
Abnormally invasive placenta (AIP) is a potentially severe condition. To date, arterial embolization in women with postpartum hemorrhage due to AIP is the treatment option for which highest degrees of evidence are available. However, other techniques have been tested, including prophylactic catheter placement, balloon occlusion of the iliac arteries and abdominal aorta balloon occlusion. In this systematic review, we provide an overview of the currently reported interventional radiology procedures that are used for the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage due to AIP and suggest recommendations based on current evidences. Owing to a high rate of adverse events, prophylactic occlusion of intern…
Influence of the Preoperative Decision-Making Process on the Postoperative Outcome after Hysterectomy for Benign Uterine Pathologies.
2016
Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess whether the preoperative decision-making process might influence treatment success in premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy for benign uterine pathologies Materials and Methods: All premenopausal women treated with hysterectomy for benign uterine pathologies between April 2011 and June 2013 at a tertiary university center were enrolled in this prospective observational cohort study. Five parameters of the preoperative decision-making process were assessed upon their correlation with postoperative quality of life, sexual function and patientsʼ satisfaction. These outcome measures were assessed for the pre- and postoperative (six months …
Analysis and review of the perioperative management of COVID-19 patients in thoracic surgery.
2021
Resumen Debido a la grave situacion de pandemia que vivimos causada por el COVID-19, la Seccion de Anestesia Cardiaca, Vascular y Toracica de la SEDAR pretende dar informacion de los aspectos mas relevantes a considerar en pacientes con sospecha o infeccion confirmada por coronavirus que van a ser sometidos a cirugia toracica. Creemos que es esencial mantener una optima transmision de informacion para llevar a cabo maniobras seguras, tanto para los pacientes como para el personal sanitario. La estrategia de manejo debe basarse en una organizacion exquisita del trabajo, definiendo quien, como y cuando va a realizar cada tarea y procedimiento. Las recomendaciones que se proponen, tras valorar…
