isolated fallopian tube torsion is rare and often difficult to diagnose. definitive diagnosis is always made at laparoscopic or via laparotomy exploration performed for suspected ovarian torsion. early diagnosis and conservative laparoscopic treatment especially in a reproductive age woman is warranted as a means of preserving fallopian tube integrity and maintaining fertility. here, we describ...

Torsion theories are here extended to categories equipped with an ideal of 'null morphisms', or equivalently a full subcategory of 'null objects'. Instances of this extension include closure operators viewed as generalised torsion theories in a 'category of pairs', and factorization systems viewed as torsion theories in a category of morphisms. The first point has essentially been treated in [15].

wandering spleen, defined as a spleen without its usual peritoneal attachments, is a rare entity. we report a 34-year-old woman with acute abdomen due to torsion of the long vascular pedicle of a wandering spleen, displaced in the abdominal cavity, and infarction of the spleen. wandering spleen was diagnosed by ultrasound and computed tomography (ct) scan, and was managed by splenectomy in this...

conclusions the results suggest no significant relationship between the severity of injury and risk of rsd occurrence, although the mean injury severity score was higher in patients with rsd than in those without rsd in this study population. the lower score of local circulation in patients with rsd than in those without rsd is a statistically significant finding and can be attributed to change...

introduction: intramedullary nailing (imn) of high tibia fracture has some mechanical and biological advantages over the other form of fixation. however, valgus, apex anterior malalignment and anterior displacement of proximal fragment commonly occur after isolated imn fixation of proximal high tibia fracture. the purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of using 3.5-mm locking c...

      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 ...
