Are there still indications for total pancreatectomy?
Total pancreatectomy is associated with short- and long-term high complication rate and without evidence of oncologic advantages. Several metabolic consequences are co-related with the apancreatic state. The unstable diabetes related to the total resection of the pancreas expose the patients to short- and long-term life-threatening complications. Severe hypoglycemia is a short-term dangerous co...
متن کاملP30: Are There Anxious Genes?
Anxiety comprises many clinical descriptions and phenotypes. A genetic predisposition to anxiety is undoubted; however, the nature and extent of that contribution is still unclear. Extensive genetic studies of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) transporter (5-HTT) gene have revealed how variation in gene expression can be correlated with anxiety phenotypes. Complete genome-wide linkage s...
متن کاملMR recognition of supratentorial tumors.
Eighty patients with intrinsic tumors of the cerebral hemispheres and thalami were studied with a 0.5 T superconducting system and third- or fourth-generation computed tomographic (CT) scanners. Twenty-eight patients had histologically verified gliomas, 34 were presumed to have primary brain tumors on clinical grounds, 13 had metastases, and five were postoperative. Lesions shown on CT were equ...
متن کاملExpanding the Indications for Laparoscopic Gastric Resection for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
OBJECTIVE Laparoscopic resection of large gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) has been controversial. This generally has been limited to small lesions. We hypothesize that laparoscopic mobilization and resection using, in some cases, extracorporeal anastomosis of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is an oncologically safe alternative to open surgery even when tumors are large. METHODS...
متن کاملMicrosurgical resection of supratentorial cerebral cavernomas.
AIM More than two thirds of cerebral cavernomas are located supratentorially. The transsulcal approach without excision of the perilesional gliotic parenchyma and simple lesionectomy are keys to surgery on eloquent areas. MATERIAL AND METHODS We present 11 supratentorial cerebral cavernomas operated between 2003 and 2007 with signs of seizures in six and focal neurological deficit in four cas...
