BACKGROUND The optimal treatment of empyema thoracis has been widely debated. Proponents of pleural drainage alone, drainage plus fibrinolytic therapy, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical (VATS) debridement, and open thoracotomy each champion the efficacy of their approach. METHODS This study examines treatment of complex empyema thoracis between June 1, 1994, and April 30, 1997. Twenty-one...
Biliary decompression and drainage done in a timely manner is the cornerstone of acute cholangitis treatment. The mortality rate of acute cholangitis was extremely high when no interventional procedures, other than open drainage, were available. At present, endoscopic drainage is the procedure of first choice, in view of its safety and effectiveness. In patients with severe (grade III) disease,...
Introduction: In a retrospective study, we evaluated the frequency, clinical presentation, and management of lymphocele in kidney transplant recipients operated on in a single center. Materials and Methods: Between September 1984 and June 2005, we had 2147 kidney transplantations from living donors. During the follow-up period, ultrasonography was performed in symptomatic patients and those wit...
BACKGROUND Many Authors suggest that psoas abscess should initially undergo an antibiotic therapy, with or without percutaneous drainage. In their opinion, surgical drainage should be done in case of failure or complicated recurrences. Herein we report a laparoscopic drainage of a recurrent and multilocular psoas abscess. METHODS A 43-year-old woman presented to our department with a 4-week h...
Psoas abscess is a collection of pus within the psoas muscle compartment that can access the hip joint in rare opportunities through the psoas bursa. Usual treatment involves articular debridement at early diagnosis and psoas drainage in an open fashion or by to mographic guided percutaneous drainage, but when not suspected, secondary arthritis and high incidence of septic arthroplasty loosenin...
Key Points: • Closed peritoneal drainage is indicated if the source of peritonitis can be identified and surgically corrected. • Open peritoneal drainage is indicated in cases where the source of contamination cannot be identified, contamination is severe or longstanding or the virulence of organisms is high. • Vacuum assisted closure is a relatively new concept in veterinary medicine that can ...
Dropped gallstones due to accidental perforation of gallbladder wall during laparoscopic cholecystectomy are often encountered. However, dropped gallstones as nidus of infection with subsequent abscess formation is a rare complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (0.3%). Most of the reported cases of complicated dropped stones required open surgical drainage. Minimally invasive measures were...
When Policy Topic is covered Canaloplasty may be considered medically necessary as a method to reduce intraocular pressure in patients with chronic primary open-angle glaucoma under the following conditions: Medical therapy has failed to adequately control intraocular pressure, AND The patient is not a candidate for any other intraocular pressure lowering procedure (e.g. trabeculectomy or g...
The goals of post-liposuction care must be to minimize edema, bruising, and patient discomfort. The postoperative pain and edema resulting from sutured incisions and prolonged post-liposuction compression is an irrational remnant from the days before the tumescent technique. This article discusses various issues involving post-liposuction care.
BACKGROUND T-tube drainage used to be standard practice after surgical choledochotomy, but there is now a tendency in some canters to close the common bile duct primarily. This study was designed to compare the clinical results of primary closure with T-tube drainage after open choledocotomy and assess the safety of primary closure for future application. METHODS This study was conducted at s...
