Surgical wound revision antishock unit, priorities surgical accesses (thoracotomy laparotomy) allowed timely cure injury. A key feature our is trauma. Coronary suturing closed heart surgery technically difficult. It has potential...

Patterns of penetrating abdominal stab wounds (ASW) may be different according to the mechanism of injury. The purpose of this study was to review and characterize penetrating abdominal stab wounds in self-inflicted wound patients and assaulted patients. We retrospectively analyzed patients with ASW who were admitted to our emergency department from 2007 to 2015. The patients were divided into ...

It is generally suggested that astrocytes play important restorative functions after brain injury, yet little is known regarding their recruitment to sites of injury, despite numerous in vitro experiments investigating astrocyte polarity. Here, we genetically manipulated one of the proposed key signals, the small RhoGTPase Cdc42, selectively in mouse astrocytes in vitro and in vivo. We used an ...

BACKGROUND Penetrating neck injuries result from missiles and stab wounds. A gas pistol is a non-lethal weapon for self-defence. CASE REPORT We present a case where the use of a modified gun led to multiple injuries in a single shot. Four projectiles were embedded in the neck, one in the larynx and three in the cervical spine. The first was removed via a combined external and endoscopic appro...
