RESULTS: At this writing, all published papers on RRC are based on small number of patients with short-term followup. Nevertheless, they have demonstrated the technical feasibility of RRC with encouraging perioperative outcomes. Compared to open radical cystectomy (ORC), RRC appears to be associated with decreased blood loss, hospital stay and analgesic requirement. These advantages are also fo...

the uses of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) are limited by a variety of side effects. so research on preparing new analgesic agents is important. according to some reports about the analgesic activity of hydrazide and hydrazine derivatives a new series of these compounds were synthesized in order to obtain new analgesic compounds. the final compounds 10a-10e and 15a-15d were prep...

in this study, the aim was the evaluation of effect of intravenous (iv) administration of ketamine, peritonsillar infiltration of tramadol and their combination for control of post-operative pain in comparison with single use of each drug in children undergoing tonsillectomy. one hundred and twenty children, aged 2-15 years, selected for elective adenotonsillectomy were enrolled in the study. w...

Hemangiomas of the small bowel are rare tumors that often present with gastrointestinal bleeding. Diagnosis can be difficult and exploratory laparotomy has often proved to be the only method with which to determine the presence and location of these tumors. We report two cases of small bowel hemangioma in children aged 10 and 7 years, in which the diagnosis was made by laparoscopy. Laparoscopy ...

Pediatric minimal access surgery (MAS) started in India a decade ago and has a great impact on the way we manage pediatric surgical problems today. The imaginations and creativity of pediatric surgeons across the world have lead to a broad array of surgeries that can now be performed without large incisions. New techniques, procedures, and innovations are always ongoing in this fast-developing ...

Postoperative analgesia, once established initially by the titration method, is sustained with a flexible regime of papaveretum, infused continuously with a portable syringe pump. The initial analgesic requirement (TAR) for titrating the pain threshold level, was between 4 and 10 mg of papaveretum and the maintenance dose between 1 and 1-66 mg/hr for the first 24 hr and between 083 and 1 mg/hr ...

In the UK, perioperative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are commonly administered via the rectal route even though suppositories are unpopular with patients. This prospective, randomised, double-blind study compares the analgesic effectiveness of diclofenac 100 mg given either orally or rectally to 42 ASA grades 1 and 2 patients scheduled to undergo day-case laparoscopic sterilization by...

BACKGROUND This double-blinded, randomized clinical trial was designed to evaluate the comparison of intravenous versus intraarticular (IA) administration of midazolam on postoperative pain after knee arthroscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, 75 patients randomized in three groups to receive 75 mc/kg IA injection of midazolam and 10 ml intravenous injection of isotonic saline (Group I...
