endoscopic findings in chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis

Introduction: Transnasal endoscopic approach is well established in the management of subperiosteal abscess but retro-orbital abscess is commonly treated by external surgical approach. There are only two articles published on endoscopic drainage of retro-orbital abscess. We present our experience in the management of retro-orbital abscesses by transnasal endoscopic surgery. Methods: Retrospecti...

Echinococcus granulosis commonly involve the liver and are mostly seen in Turkey . One of early complication following surgery for hydatid cyst is biliary leakage (B.L.) which’s incidence %4.5-26. Endoscopic sphincterotomy (E.S.) stenting usually successful treating B.L. In this case, I’m presenting endoscopic treatment after operation.

Introduction: To reduce incidence of residual cholesteatoma following ear surgery; and to reduce the need for second look “open” mastoidectomy using endoscopic mastoidotomy. Ten-year retrospective chart review of 249 primary cholesteatoma cases (1994-2004) with a minimum follow-up of two years.  The first objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of otoendoscopy in reducing the incidence of “...

OBJECTIVE When performing transcanal myringoplasty under a microscope, the total circumference of the perforation can be difficult to confirm in patients where the external ear canal is narrow and/or protruded. In such patients, a retroauricular incision approach is usually used. However, we have developed a transcanal endoscopic myringoplasty procedure, and the microscopic and endoscopic views...

hydatid cyst is an infectious parasitic disease often caused by echinococcus granulosus, or to a lesser extent by echinococcus alveolaris. the liver is the organ most frequently involved. we report a case with hydatid cyst of the liver and lung that many years after surgery developed bronchobiliary fistula and biloptysis. the patient had been operated 2 times previously but yet the problem was ...

the most frequent form of inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) in dogs is represented, histologically, by lymphoplasmacytic enteritis (lpe), a histological category, often associated with other morphologic alterations including lymphangiectasia (le). however, literature data on this latter topic are quite scarce and have mostly been obtained in single reports or in small series. currently, there ar...

As the proportion of early gastric cancer has been increasing with national cancer screening program, endoscopic treatment for early gastric cancer has been expanded with the progress of endoscopic technique and accessories. Recently, expanded indication of endoscopic resection for early gastric cancer has been proposed with technical and instrumental advances. Although endoscopic complete rese...

Introduction: The endoscopic transsphenoidal approach for pituitary adenomas and other sellar lesions is quickly becoming the procedure of choice in their surgical management. The most common approach is binostril three-hand technique which requires a large exposure and subjects both nasal cavities to potential trauma. To reduce nasal morbidity, we employ a mononostril two-hand technique with t...
