Pelvic fluid collection can complicate a variety of abdominal surgeries and gynecological inflammations; nevertheless, it is considered rare pathological consequence after normal vaginal delivery. It characterized by wall thick fibrous tissue that delineate an area pus necrotic tissues.

OBJECTIVE Both, second generation perfluorochemicals (Oxycyte®) and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) have been shown to reduce necrotic tissue volume if administered early after experimental cerebral ischemia. With the idea of exponentiation of oxygen delivery to ischemic tissue, this study was conducted to investigate the combined effect of both treatment modalities on the extent of ischemic brain dama...

The ability to accurately distinguish remaining or recurrent high-grade astrocytoma from necrosis or edema following treatment is essential to optimal patient management. Thallium 201 planar -y-caméra imaging has been shown to be helpful in detecting recurrent high-grade astrocytoma; however, due to tissue heterogeneity adjacent to and within tumor, the cellular specificity and quantification ...

PURPOSE Temozolomide (TMZ) has anti-tumor activity in patients with malignant glioma. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) may enhance the efficacy of certain therapies that are limited because of the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. We examined the combined effects of TMZ-HBO in a rat glioma model. METHODS After stereotactic injection of C6/LacZ rat glioma cells into the Wistar rats brain, the rats were r...

A widely adopted surrogate for predicting rates of cardiovascular events involves measure of carotid intimal-medial thickness (CIMT) by B mode ultrasound, a technique available since the mid 1980s. The value of this modality remains in its ability to noninvasively assess cardiovascular risk beyond traditional factors identified by the Framingham risk score, and it is among the few available tec...

The ability to accurately distinguish remaining or recurrent high-grade astrocytoma from necrosis or edema following treatment is essential to optimal patient management. Thallium 201 planar gamma-camera imaging has been shown to be helpful in detecting recurrent high-grade astrocytoma; however, due to tissue heterogeneity adjacent to and within tumor, the cellular specificity and quantificatio...

Pyogenic bacteria such as the Staphylococcus Aureus characteristically produce a circumscribed area of tissue necrosis leading to abscess formation. An abscess consists of (i) a central cavity containing pus, which is essentially liquefied necrotic tissue along with dead poiymorphs and bacteria (many of the latter are alive) and (ii) a surrounding wall, the inner layer of which is again necroti...

BACKGROUND Thermal injury is associated with several biochemical and histopathological alteration in tissue. Analysis of these objective parameters in research and clinical field are common to determine healing rate of burn wound. Negative pressure wound therapy has been achieved wide success in treating chronic wounds. This study determines superficial burn wound healing with intermittent n...

Two model-independent measures of diffusion, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and return-to-the-origin probability enhancement (R) were compared for their ability to detect tissue necrosis in RIF-1 murine tumors. Both reflect the degree of restriction experienced by the endogenous water molecules; however, the ADC is calculated from the initial linear slope of the diffusion attenuation ...

Papain allows the effective removal of necrotic tissue in wounds by a type of enzymatic debridement. The objective of this work was to emphasize the effectiveness of the association of papain with urea in necrotic lesions. The case of a 56‐year‐old patient is reported with an ulcerated lesion in the internal malleolar region of the left lower limb. The necrotic tissue was made enzymatic...
