The Effects of Posterior Spinal Fusion in Patients with Limitations of Anterior Approach: The Experience of Six Cases
Background & Importance: Spinal deformity is one of the most common disorders among the vertebral diseases that results from unnatural curvatures of spine, such as scoliosis and kyphosis. Spinal fusion surgery is used most commonly to treat certain types of spinal deformity. Herein, we reported the efficacy of posterior spinal fusion accompanied by instrumentation in patients with the...
متن کاملPericardiocentesis under echocardiographic guidance.
We thank Drs Tsang and Seward for their interesting comments. The Mayo Clinic’s important experience in echoguided pericardiocentesis was cited in our paper. However, the approach we described is technically different. In Europe, the Marfan’s approach, or subxiphoid puncture proposed by Marfan, is routinely used in cardiac tamponade, in which a swinging heart is frequently present. The most com...
متن کاملTension Pneumopericardium after Pericardiocentesis.
Pneumopericardium is defined as the presence of air inside the pericardial space. Usually, it is reported as a complication of blunt or penetrating chest trauma, but rare iatrogenic and spontaneous cases have been reported. Pneumopericardium is relatively stable if it does not generate a tension effect on the heart. However, it may progress to tension pneumopericardium, which requires immediate...
متن کاملElongated pigtail complicating pericardiocentesis.
Figure 1. Chest computed tomography-scan. Note the loop around the heart (1) and elongated segment of the probe (2). 1 2 We report the case of a 49 year-old man, admitted to our institution for tamponade. His previous medical history was mainly an oesophageal epidermoid cancer, with local metastases treated by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and oesophageal prosthesis. His cardiovascular risk fa...
متن کاملA pericardiocentesis electrode needle.
Pericardial aspiration is more difficult and hazardous than aspiration of other serous cavities. If the aspirating needle is introduced too far, it may injure or tear the myocardium, resulting in hwemopericardium, or induce ventricular fibrillation. The dangers are increased if the effusion is small, or if aspiration is performed as a diagnostic procedure to distinguish an effusion from a cardi...
