BACKGROUND Treatment-resistant, locally advanced soft tissue sarcomas often require amputation for complete tumor extirpation. Isolated limb infusion (ILI) selectively delivers high-dose chemotherapy to the extremity in an attempt to achieve limb salvage. The aim of this study was to report perioperative and oncologic outcomes after ILI in patients with extremity soft tissue sarcomas. STUDY D...
BACKGROUND The objective of this retrospective study was to determine the incidence of pulmonary embolism (PE) in casualties of wartime extremity wounds and specifically in casualties with a trauma-associated amputation. METHODS Records of all combat-wounded evacuated and admitted between March 1, 2003, and December 31, 2007, were retrospectively reviewed. Continuous and categorical variables...
BACKGROUND Many believe that variation in vascular practice may affect limb salvage rates in patients with severe peripheral arterial disease. However, the extent of variation in procedural vascular care obtained by patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS By using Medicare 2003 to 2006 data, we identified all patients with CLI who underwent major lower ...
mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic fungal infection that can implicate cranial sinuses, brain, lungs, gastrointestinal tract and skin. although it can occur in patients with competent and incompetent immunity such as patients with diabetes mellitus, lymphoma, leukemia and burns, but it has an aggressive, malignant and lethal course in patients with incompetent immunity. to enforce the importa...
OBJECTIVE Lower-extremity amputation is a common complication among patients with diabetes throughout the world. However, few data exist on the actual impact of the recent moves to improve the management of diabetic foot ulcers to reduce the incidence of lower-extremity amputations. The aim was to determine the incidence of lower-extremity amputations among diabetic patients from 1991 to 2000 i...
Approximately 6-10,000 upper-extremity amputations are performed each year in the U n i t e d S t a t e s ( 6 , 9 , 1 8 ) . S u c c e s s f u l r e h a b i l i t a t i o n a f t e r u p p e r e x t r e m i t y amputation has significant economic impact both to the amputee and society, since most upper-extremity injuries occur in young working males (5,11). Although the success rates for fingert...
OBJECTIVE Diabetes-related lower-extremity amputation (LEA) rates are elevated in blacks compared with whites in the U.S., but are lower in African Caribbeans in the U.K., whereas anecdotal reports suggest high rates in the Caribbean. We aimed to establish the incidence and risk factors for diabetes-related LEA in a Caribbean population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted an incident an...
BACKGROUND Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is known to be associated with high cardiovascular risk, but the individual impact of PAD presentations on risk of macrovascular and microvascular events has not been reliably compared in patients with type 2 diabetes. We aimed to evaluate the impact of major PAD, and its different presentations, on the 10-year risk of death, major macrovascular even...
