T en years ago, the only available treatment modality for patients with drug-refractory supraventricular tachycardia was surgery. Surgical techniques included direct dissection or cryodesiccation of the His bundle for tachycardia control.1'2 During the past decade, catheter techniques have been introduced that replicate the surgical experience without the expense and morbidity associated with c...
INTRODUCTION The Q-switched 1064-nm laser is associated with rapid vaporization and thermal expansion stresses leading to skin mechanical damage and is typically used for correction of exogenous and endogenous deep pigmentation. Giving the common place of fractional, infrared-domain milliseconds non-ablative lasers in aesthetic dermatology, a novel non-ablative fractional Q-switched 1,064-nm la...
BACKGROUND Catheter ablation has evolved as a possible curative treatment modality for atrial tachyarrhythmia (AT) in patients with congenital heart defects (CHD). However, data on long-term outcome are scarce. We examined characteristics of recurrent AT after ablation of postoperative AT during long-term follow-up in CHD patients. METHODS AND RESULTS CHD patients (n=53; 27 men; age, 38+/-15 ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Pulsed carbon dioxide (CO(2)) laser devices are considered highly effective treatment options for skin resurfacing. However, the high risk for significant treatment complications following CO(2) resurfacing has warranted the development of new treatment modalities. The concept of fractional photothermolysis was developed to address the shortcomings of ablative and non-a...
Available literature on the benefit of interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) as adjuvant postsurgical or ablative treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma reports discordant results. By meta-analysis of the available data, we evaluated the effects of IFN-alpha on recurrence and survival after complete resection or ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma. All randomized controlled trials comparing IFN-alpha wi...
BACKGROUND Palliative treatments and stents are necessary for relieving dysphagia in patients with esophageal cancer. The aim of this study was to simultaneously compare available treatments in terms of complications. METHODS Web of Science, Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Embase were searched. Statistical heterogeneity was assessed using the Chi2 test and was quantified by I2. The resu...
Introduction: Radioiodine (131I) is an effective and inexpensive alternative to surgery in the treatment of thyroid hyperfunction. The debate today concerns the maximum and minimum ablative doses, and factors leading to hypothyroidism. Patients & Method: 1035 hyperthyroid patients treated with weight-adjusted ablative doses of 131I were retrospectively assessed for ...
INTRODUCTION The majority of patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC) has locally advanced disease or distant lymph node metastases on presentation or exploratory laparotomy, which makes them not eligible for resection. As the prognosis of patients with locally advanced PHC or lymph node metastases in the palliative setting is significantly better compared with patients with organ metas...
BACKGROUND Injectable hyaluronic acid fillers (HAFs) and laser/light procedures have become increasingly popular for noninvasive facial rejuvenation in many cosmetic practices. However, the effect of laser/light treatments on HAFs is unknown. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to examine the effect of laser/light treatments on HAFs in a porcine model. METHODS The abdomens of 6 Yorkshire pigs were ...
