Background: Anal fistula and anal sepsis are the part of spectrum of anorectal suppurative diseases, A fistula-in-ano is a hollow tract lined with granulation tissue connecting a primary opening inside the anal canal to a secondary opening in the perianal skin through which an abscess has been drained or has spontaneously ruptured. Aim of the Work: To compare injection of histoacryle and irrigation of silver nitrate in treatment of low non branching anal fistula. Patients and Methods: This study was held in Beni-Suief university hospital, at the general surgery department from October 2019 to June 2020 on 50 patients that divided into 2 groups randomly selected (SN group and Histoacryle group). Results: There is a significant difference found between two groups in favor for SN. As silver nitrate is much less expensive with a lower recurrence rates, while histoacryle is more expensive with higher recurrence rates. Conclusion:Both silver nitrate and histoacryle can be used in treatment of low non branching anal fistula effectively with no evident complications and good success rate specially for patients refusing surgery and for patients with high risk for anesthesia, favoring SN injection as it has lower recurrence rates and cheaper cost in comparison with HA injection.
Objectives: Superficial femoral artery (SFA) endovascular intervention procedures are one of the most common peripheral artery interventions (PAI) in the lower extremities around the world. Chronic total occlusions (CTO) are extremely common in this vascular bed, accounting for approximately 40–50% of all lesions treated. One of the most crucial decisions an operator must make for a good chronic total occlusion (CTO) recanalization is selecting the right catheter vascular access site. Methods: A prospective, cohort, study conducted on 30 patients to evaluate the safety and efficacy of different strategies for crossing the chronic total occlusion of superficial femoral artery. Results: There was statistically significant difference found between crossing techniques regarding DM and combined DM and dyslipidemia. Conclusion: Correlation of CTOP classification with larger sample size may show importance and improve crossing strategies.
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.
