Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) associated with a contralateral neurological deficit is sometimes encountered by surgeons. Compression against the opposite pedicle in case of a large discal herniation and prominent stenotic changes of contralateral side are held responsible for contralateral symptoms and findings. In this study, we report a case of LDH associated with a painless contralateral neur...

Clitoral priapism is a rare condition that is associated with an extended duration of clitoral erection due to local engorgement of clitoral tissue resulting in pain. Although the pathophysiology is not completely understood, it has been associated with specific classes of medications, diseases that alter clitoral blood flow or others associated with small to large vessel disease. We present a ...

The azygos venous system represents an accessory venous pathway supplying an important collateral circulation between the superior and inferior vena cava. The aim of this article is to revise the wide spectrum of changes ranging from normal to pathological conditions involving the azygos system. Teaching points • The azygos vein is a collateral venous pathway, becoming a vital shunt if major pa...

Receptors believed responsible for the diuresis of negative pressure breathing have been located by observing the effect on urine flow of a stepwise engorgement of the intrathoracic vascular bed. Distension of the pulmonary arterial tree (injection of plastic beads) and of the entire pulmonary circulation (snares on the pulmonary veins) were without effect. A diuresis was however elicited by ex...

This study assessed the efficiency of a new in vitro tick feeding system for adult Rhipicephalus appendiculatus and compared impact different blood anticoagulating factors on their process. A total 10 feeders were each seeded with 30 or 60 R. adults. Bovine was added into unit changed every 12 h 4 to days during which attachment engorgement assessed. The observed after 80.0% (48/60), 75.8% (182...

The postpartum period is a that very prone to complications for the mother and baby which if not handled properly can cause problems even death of baby. maternal mortality rate in Indonesia 2020 4,627 cases.

Examination.-The proptosis was axial in natureand the ocular movements were restricted in all directions but especially downwards and outwards. The left pupil was dilated, reacting sluggishly to light. The fundus showed venous engorgement and some papilloedema. In December, 1954, the visual acuity was reduced to counting fingers at 2 ft. All investigations, including skiagrams of the orbital re...

A morphology-based redescription of Leptus kattikus Haitlinger, 2009, including re-examination of the holotype and supplemented with data of a series of specimens collected in Vietnam, is provided. Larvae at different levels of engorgement, all separated from one phasmid host, were examined. A polymerase chain reaction, conducted in order to amplify and sequence the DNA of parasitic larvae, res...

The effect of unllobar engorgement and edema in a dog's lung on the effort of breathing was studied by expressing the latter as the velocity of air-flow attained per unit of pressure change across the lung, and as static compliance. Edema of the left lower lobe, produced by shunting blood from the femoral into the pulmonary artery, affected the effort of breathing only at high infusion rates an...
