femoral nerve palsy following delayed reduction of a dislocated hip in a 44- year-old man
case report: we report a 44-year-old man with right femoral nerve palsy following delayed reduction of an anterior dislocation of hip. conclusion: two months after closed reduction, complete clinical recovery of right femoral nerve was achieved and the patient was able to resume his job. introduction: incidence of nerve injury in traumatic hip dislocations is up to 10 %. sciatic nerve is the mo...
متن کاملChronic Hemolysis Following Mitral Valve Replacement
The incidence and severity of chronic intravascular hemolysis was evaluated in a total of 41 patients following mitral valve replacement. Valve replacement was with a gamma-radiated frame-mounted aortic homograft in 21 patients and with a composite seat Starr-Edwards prosthesis, model 6310 or 6320, in 20 patients. The parameters used to assess hemolysis were hemoglobin, hematocrit, reticulocyte...
متن کاملMechanical Hemolysis after Mitral Valve Repair: Report of a Case
A 60-year-old man underwent aortic valve replacement with a bileaflet mechanical valve for aortic regurgitation and mitral valve repair using a prosthetic ring for mitral regurgitation (MR). Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) confirmed no residual MR and a normally functioning aortic prosthetic valve without a paravalvular leak. One week after the operation, transthoracic ech...
متن کاملFemoral Nerve Palsy Following Delayed Reduction of a Dislocated Hip in a 44- Year-old Man
INTRODUCTION Incidence of nerve injury in traumatic hip dislocations is up to 10 %. Sciatic nerve is the most common injured nerve in this setting. In the medical literature, there are few documented cases of femoral nerve injury following hip dislocations. CASE REPORT We report a 44-year-old man with right femoral nerve palsy following delayed reduction of an anterior dislocation of hip. C...
متن کاملReduction of hemolysis without reoperation following mitral valve repair.
Hemolytic anemia following mitral valve repair and annular ring placement is uncommon compared with mitral valve replacement. A 60-year-old man, who had undergone mitral valve repair with a Duran ring, developed hemolytic anemia and needed a blood transfusion. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a paravalvular mitral regurgitation jet colliding with the Duran ring. Most cases of severe he...
