Acquired Splenic cysts are uncommon and found in only less than 1% of splenectomy specimen received for study. They vary greatly in size with average size of 10 cm in diameter. A case of acquired splenic cyst in a 54 year old man probably following a trivial trauma is being presented.
Bioabsorbable
ConceptsClinical trials a b s t r a c t Bioabsorbable stents have altogether opened a new perceptive in coronary interventions and a debate on benefits over bare metallic stents and drug eluting stents. There had been difference of opinion from experts in this state of art over the technology, indications of usage, clinical benefits and economics. The review enumerates material and technical related issues of so for developed bioabsorbable stents and the players involved. Unbiased, categorical information on the clinical trials of the stents e till date are also discussed.
The pattern, intensity and distribution of SY-positive fibres in the muscularis propria of the doughnut of the proximal bowel chosen intraoperatively for anastomosis in HD can identify sectors with abnormal innervation allowing the surgeon to seek normal innervation status more proximally to avoid complications.
Squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common carcinoma involving the skin and squamous epithelium from other sites. They are of varying histological presentation as well as clinical features. Squamous cell carcinoma occurs in a wide range of age group involving both sexes. Amyloidosis is an extracellular deposition of proteinaceous material which when occurring in skin as a primary lesion is called as lichen amyloidosis. The lichen amyloidosis can have varying forms of clinical presentation. Sometimes amyloidosis is associated with Basal Cell Carcinoma, Bowen's disease and some of cutaneous tumours. A 4 year analysis of pattern of squamous cell carcinoma as well as Lichen amyloidosis had been analysed and found out that there was one case associated with lichen amyloidosis in a setting of Squamous cell carcinoma.
A “tracheotomy” refers to the surgical procedure that creates an opening between the trachea and the midline skin surface of the neck. Indicators for a tracheostomy tube include airway protection, removal of tracheal secretions, and wean from long-term mechanical ventilation. Assessment and management will be overseen by a multidisciplinary team which includes a speech-language pathologist whose involvement in tracheostomy include assisting the patient to tolerate successful periods of cuff deflation and saliva management, re-establishing verbal communication, conducting swallow assessments to re-establish oral intake, providing dysphagia rehabilitation, and providing input into the decannulation decision. This case study is focusing on the 42-year-old male who had the right cerebellopontine angle meningioma for which he underwent retrosigmoid, suboccipital craniotomy, and excision of lesion. Tracheostomy was done following stridor and wheezing, and he is under nasogastric tube for feeding. Assessment and management for swallowing and speech were focussed and results were documented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
