Laparoscopic Drainage of a Large Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Laparoscopic cystogastrostomy is an established procedure for the drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts. Cysts are mainly present in the lesser sac (retro-gastric), which is completely amenable to cystogastrostomy. We discuss the problems faced and simple solutions to the problems in managing a huge pancreatic pseudocyst of 22 cm×18 cm in a young boy 18 y of age.

Salt marshes are unique ecosystems that are brimming with diversity, and provide crucial shelter to coastal communities.
متن کاملDrainage of large pleural effusions increases left ventricular preload.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to investigate if pleurocentesis in patients with pleural effusion would lead to changes in systolic and diastolic function of the left ventricle. DESIGN The study was descriptive, and patients were their own controls. SETTING The setting was a single-center university hospital. PARTICIPANTS Patients with pleural effusion requiring pleurocentesis were e...
متن کاملDrought, snails, and large-scale die-off of southern U.S. salt marshes.
Salt marshes in the southeastern United States have recently experienced massive die-off, one of many examples of widespread degradation in marine and coastal ecosystems. Although intense drought is thought to be the primary cause of this die-off, we found snail grazing to be a major contributing factor. Survey of marsh die-off areas in three states revealed high-density fronts of snails on die...
متن کاملStructural Classification of Marshes with Polarimetric SAR Highlighting the Temporal Mapping of Marshes Exposed to Oil
Empirical relationships between field-derived Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Leaf Angle Distribution (LAD) and polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) based biophysical indicators were created and applied to map S. alterniflora marsh canopy structure. PolSAR and field data were collected near concurrently in the summers of 2010, 2011, and 2012 in coastal marshes, and PolSAR data alone were ac...
