Use of Nonabsorbable Spiral Tacks for Mesh Reinforcement in Thoracoscopic Repair of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
Thoracoscopic prosthetic repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a well-established and safe technique in experienced hands but the patching procedure is technically demanding and time consuming. To address the challenges associated with this process (confined working space and restricted time), the aim of this article is to assess the potential improvements in feasibility, efficacy,...
متن کاملLeft diaphragmatic hernia after pneumonectomy
Patients undergoing pneumonectomy can suffer by cardiovascular and respiratory postoperative complications that can affect patient's outcome by increasing morbidity and mortality. We describe a diaphragmatic hernia occurring after pneumonectomy. with late presentation and with epidural analgesia confusing the scenario suggesting that anesthesiologists should remain aware on this complication ev...
متن کاملA new technique of diaphragmatic patch fixation in extrapleural pneumonectomy.
Extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) is an established surgical treatment for malignant mesothelioma; this operation is, however, burdened by a high rate of perioperative morbidity, mostly related to the surgical procedure. Diaphragmatic patch dehiscence is a potentially serious complication often related to the difficulty in placement of the fixing stitches, especially in the costo-phrenic angle. ...
متن کاملEn bloc Extended Total Thymectomy and Extrapleural Pneumonectomy in Masaoka stage IVA Thymomas
BACKGROUND Surgical excision is the primary treatment for a thymoma. However, for advanced thymoma that extends to within the thoracic cavity and for recurrent cases with pleural dissemination (Masaoka stage IVA), the appropriate treatment is controversial. We evaluated the safety of surgery and outcomes of seven patients that underwent an en bloc extended total thymectomy and extrapleural pneu...
متن کاملMesh Considerations for Adaptive Finite Element Analyses of Cement Failure in Total Hip Replacement
INTRODUCTION Failure of the cement mantle has been identified as a possible mode of failure of the implanted femur in total hip replacement (THR) [1]. Finite element (FE) analyses have been used to investigate the stresses experienced in the cement mantle [2] and to predict the life of the cement mantle when taking different factors into account [3]. The number of elements used, or mesh density...
