Treatment of the pancreatic stump after DCP.
OBJECTIVE With improvement in methods, mortality after duodeno-cefalo pancreatectomy (DCP) has decreased to 5% even if complication rate is still high (30-50%). The pancreatic fistula still occurs in 25-50% of cases. Various methods of treating pancreatic stump have been proposed aimed to improve this rate. PATIENTS AND METHODS The AA, surgeons of suburban hospital, have performed in five yea...
متن کاملDistributing Coalition Value Calculations to Coalition Members
Within characteristic function games, agents have the option of joining one of many different coalitions, based on the utility value of each candidate coalition. However, determining this utility value can be computationally complex since the number of coalitions increases exponentially with the number of agents available. Various approaches have been proposed that mediate this problem by distr...
متن کاملPotential, coalition formation and coalition structure∗
The present paper studies a new potential function of a cooperative game with a coalition structure. When define a marginal contribution of each player, a notion of a coalition formation by Hart and Kurz (1983) is considered. Our potential is a real-valued function in contrast to Winter (1992)’s one which is vector-valued function whose dimension is the number of elements in the coalition struc...
متن کاملOn coalition formation: durable coalition structures
We define a solution to the problem of coalition formation that applies to purely hedonic games. Coalition structures satisfying our requirements are called durable, and we interpret them as much more likely to last than those coalition structures not satisfying the requirements, which we call transient. Durability results from a combination of foresight and extreme risk aversion on the part of...
متن کاملComparing the In Vitro Stiffness of Straight-DCP, Wave-DCP, and LCP Bone Plates for Femoral Osteosynthesis
The objective of this study was to compare the Locking Compression Plate (LCP) with the more cost-effective straight-dynamic compression plate (DCP) and wave-DCPs by testing in vitro the effects of plate stiffness on different types of diaphyseal femur fractures (A, B, and C, according to AO classification). The bending structural stiffness of each plate was obtained from four-point bending tes...
