Minimally invasive total splenectomy in dogs: A clinical report
Cases of minimally-invasive surgery are gaining acceptance among surgeons and animal owners. One type of minimally-invasive surgery is total splenectomy, which is indicated for splenic tumors, trauma, torsions, and for dogs that require blood transfusion. To assess the safety of the technique, experimental laparoscopic splenectomies were performed in dogs for the first time in Iran. Three adult...
متن کاملMinimally invasive method for murine brain fixation.
Complete brain fixation can be achieved with transthoracic cardiac infusion without thoracotomy. Light and electron microscopy tissue sections reveal preservation of cytoplasmic and nuclear structure at all magnification levels. Punched samples were obtained from the fixed tissue specimens in precisely localized areas for study using electron microscopy. This perfusion fixation technique provid...
متن کاملNeurostimulation and the minimally conscious state.
Neurostimulation to restore cognitive and physical functions is an innovative and promising technique for treating patients with severe brain injury that has resulted in a minimally conscious state (MCS). The technique may involve electrical stimulation of the central thalamus, which has extensive projections to the cerebral cortex. Yet it is unclear whether an improvement in neurological funct...
متن کاملPrime Incision and Modified Moving Window: A Minimally Invasive Access for Breast Cancer Surgical Treatment
BACKGROUND Conservative surgical treatment has been the treatment of choice for early breast cancer. It allows feasible oncological treatment with a satisfactory cosmetic approach and fast recovery. However, in some cases mastectomy is necessary. This study proposes a surgical approach with only one surgical access through the same incision, which is in line with precepts mentioned abov...
متن کاملNew optical tools for controlling neuronal activity.
A major challenge in understanding the relationship between neural activity and development, and ultimately behavior, is to control simultaneously the activity of either many neurons belonging to specific subsets or specific regions within individual neurons. Optimally, such a technique should be capable of both switching nerve cells on and off within milliseconds in a non-invasive manner, and ...
