Ovarian torsion (adnexal torsion) is an uncommon disorder in pediatrics and should be considered as a differential diagnosis of abdominal pain in preteen girls. Almost 70% of ovarian torsions are seen in young girls older than 20 years, but it could also occur in preteen girls. Sonography is one of the most useful methods to diagnose ovarian torsion. In pediatrics, ovarian torsion should ...

 Abstract  Testicular torsion is a medical emergency appearing at any age, the prevalence of  which in the neonatal period comprises 10% of the whole cases occurring at any  point in life. Among all the cases being diagnosed at birth, 70% has occurred in the  prenatal period and 30% in the neonatal period. Generally, the most common symptoms  of testicular torsion during postnatal period includ...

In this study, the effective parameters on the inelastic response of asymmetric buildings is evaluated for an ensemble of real Iranian earthquake records by considering soil-structure interaction. Then, the design eccentricity obtained from the inelastic dynamic soil-structure analysis is compared with the design eccentricity of seisimic codes of Iran, ATC-3, New Zeland, Canada, Mexico, Austral...

conclusions these findings emphasize the potential clinical benefits of therapeutic procedures such as cardiac resynchronization therapy (crt) or apex-sparing volume-reduction surgery in dcm. a better definition of the role and implications of reverse apical torsion in dcm and its importance and effectiveness in making therapeutic decisions like crt implantation requires further studies. case p...

torsion of the gallbladder is a relatively rare surgical disease which mimics acute cholecystitis' symptoms that usually would not be respondable to medical therapies. the torsion would mostly be diagnosed intra-operatively. cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice. in general in our centre, general surgery department, imam reza hospital, mashhad, iran, since 1986 over 14000 cholecystect...

torsion and infarction of the greater omentum are two rare clinical situations which present as an acute abdomen. nevertheless, knowledge concerning these two problems can help the surgeon in proper diagnosis and treatment. since the first report on primary torsion by eitel in 1899, a few hundred more have been reported and some collective reviews published to date. in this study we will presen...

Background The aim of this study was to determine oxidative stress (OS) parameters after testicular torsion/detorsion in adult rats. MaterialsAndMethods In this experimental study, male adult Wistar rats were divided into four groups, each consisting of seven animals: group I-one hour right testicular torsion with subsequent orchiectomy, group II-one hour right testicular torsion followed by de...
