Background: Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) is the standard method for enteral feeding in patients predicted to require long-term enteral nutrition because of dysphagia. The aim of this study was to assess the complications of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy performed using the pull technique. Methods: Between January 2011 and December 2011, 74 patients underwent percuta...
STUDY DESIGN A multicenter, retrospective case series. OBJECTIVE In the past several years, screw fixation of the cervical spine has become commonplace. For the most part, this is a safe, low-risk procedure. While rare, screw backout or misplaced screws can lead to morbidity and increased costs. We report our experiences with this uncommon complication. METHODS A multicenter, retrospective ...
Heterotopic ossification is defined as bone formation in nonosseous tissues. Heterotopic ossification usually occurs in trauma such as fractures and surgical procedures. Heterotopic ossification of the hip, for example, is the most common complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). It can occur in as many as 53% of THA patients, and it causes postoperative disability from pain and limited ran...
Equinus contracture often is a complication of trauma, burns, or neurologic deficit. Many patients with contractures secondary to trauma or burns have poor soft tissue, which makes invasive correction a less appealing option. The Ilizarov external fixator has been used as a less invasive attempt to correct equinus contracture. We describe our "dynamic" technique and present a clinical patient s...
Nowadays percutaneous vertebroplasty is commonly used for vertebral osteoporotic compression fractures. This technique is also useful for other lytic vertebral lesions including hemangioma. Although cement leakage is the most common technical complication, its clinical prevalence is rare and the presentation is always acute. Hereby, we reported a case of vertebral hamangioma in a 14-year-old gi...
Non-convulsive status epilepticus is an insidious condition and a challenging diagnosis for neurologists on call. The condition must, however, be recognized, since it constitutes a neurological emergency. Non-convulsive status epilepticus may also be associated as an additional complication with an acute neurologic disease, in which case an EEG recording is usually required. In addition, non-co...
Fat embolism syndrome is a rare and potentially lethal complication most commonly seen in long bone fractures and intramedullary manipulation. The clinical triad of fat embolism syndrome consists of mental confusion, respiratory distress, and petechiae. This study reports a case of cerebral fat embolism syndrome following elective bilateral total knee replacement. After an uneventful anesthesia...
We report the first 3 cases of femoral nerve neuropathy after a psoas hitch vesicopexy, a technique commonly used with ureteroneocystostomy. The condition in 2 patients resolved with conservative therapy, and the third patient required reoperation with removal of an offending suture. All 3 patients recovered completely with no residual neurologic deficit. Urologists who use the psoas hitch must...
Madam, cetirizine hydrochloride, an antihistamine, is the active constituent of Zyrtec® that functions as competitive peripheral H1 receptor inhibitor.1 Cetirizine is known to have reduced blood-brain barrier penetration due to its larger mass, lipophobic properties and increased attraction for peripheral H1 receptors. Oculogyric crisis is a neurologic impairment defined by bilateral dystonic, ...
