Erosion of inferior vena caval filter noted during robotic assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filters are mechanical devices implanted to provide prophylaxis against pulmonary emboli in patients for whom standard anticoagulation is either inadequate or contraindicated. A 67-year-old female with a 10-year-old indwelling IVC filter underwent robotic assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for a right upper pole renal mass. Renal hilum dissection was complicated ...
متن کاملCombined Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy and Radical Prostatectomy
A 59-year-old man with a history of prostate cancer and clear-cell renal-cell carcinoma of the kidney underwent a combined robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy. We describe the initial report of a combined robot-assisted operation for both procedures concurrently with a port strategy allowing reuse of ports.
متن کاملInferior Vena Caval Ligation
PULMONARY embolism, which is usually a complication of venous thrombosis in the lower limbs, is responsible for approximately 3 per cent. of howpital deaths. It is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in various medical and surgical conditions. It is generally accepted that anticoagulant therapy has an important place as a prophylactic measure in venous thrombosis and, when efficient, redu...
متن کاملRobot-assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy
The indications for nephron-sparing surgery and for minimally invasive surgery are continually expanding. Nephron-sparing surgery, also known as partial nephrectomy, presents a challenge to the minimally invasive surgeon. Herein, we describe our technique of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. This approach may have potential advantages of including easier excision and suturing. Mo...
متن کاملInsertion of inferior vena caval filter and thromboembolic phenomenon.
Thromboembolic phenomena are common in the elderly population and their consequences can be life threatening. Although anticoagulants are the mainstay of therapy, there are conditions in which their use is contraindicated. Alternative therapeutic options involve the use of more invasive techniques to prevent major thromboembolic incidents. We describe a case in which a modified Greenfield titan...
