Non-functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: Surgery or observation?
Incidentally detected, sporadic, nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are increasingly diagnosed on imaging studies performed for unrelated purposes. Although their resection is usually recommended, controversy still exists regarding their optimal management, due to their highly variable and difficult to predict biologic behavior. Recently, several studies and guidelines advocated an ...
متن کاملRole of nephrectomy in the treatment of non-functioning or very poorly functioning unilateral tuberculous kidney.
We reviewed 300 consecutive cases of genitourinary tuberculosis at Wrightington Hospital from 1961 to 1978. There were 73 patients with non-functioning or poorly functioning kidneys who underwent nephrectomy after at least 6 weeks of intensive chemotherapy with 3 antituberculous drugs. Three of 4 patients with unilateral non-functioning kidneys who did not have a primary nephrectomy had delayed...
متن کاملUrinary reflux to the non-functioning previous renal graft
Nuclear medicine imaging is routinely used for evaluation of perfusion and function of the transplanted kidneys. At present, the radiopharmaceutical of choice for this study in our center is Tc 99m-Ec. Complications of the kidney graft are demonstrable in the early and delayed images. One of these complications is vesicoureteral reflux to the graft or to the native kidneys. We present a 27 year...
متن کاملSecondary septicaemia from intravenous cannulae.
Within a period of only seven months three patients in one hospital under treatment with antibiotics by intravenous infusion developed secondary bloodstream infection originating from the site of insertion of the cannula. Two of these infections were fatal. Precautions suggested include strict asepsis, the skin being sterilized with iodine in spirit solution; antibiotic spray; and changing the ...
متن کاملOptimal blocked minimum-support designs for non-linear models
Finding optimal designs for experiments for non-linear models and dependent data is a challenging task. We show how the problem simplifies when the search is restricted to designs that are minimally supported; that is, the number of distinct runs (treatments) is equal to the number of unknown parameters, p, in the model. Under this restriction, the problem of finding a locally or pseudo-Bayesia...
