Reconstruction of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects [PDF]

Scandinavian Journal of Surgery, 2013
Complex abdominal wall defects refer to situations where simple ventral hernia repair is not feasible because the defect is very large, there is a concomitant infection or failed previous repair attempt, or if there is not enough original skin to cover the repair.

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

A novel approach for the closure of challenging giant omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2015
Omphalocele is a congenital condition characterized by midline defect of the anterolateral abdominal wall whereby intra-abdominal contents covered by peritoneal sac are found herniated. It can be defined by size of defect or visceral contents.

Blood clot inspired pore‐gradient nanofiber sponge with “outer filtration” and “inner adsorption” bifunction for rapid stop of uncontrolled hemorrhage

BMEMat, EarlyView.
In this study, by mimicking the nanofiber structure and netting blood cells function of fibrin network in blood clots, we developed a novel bioinspired quaternized chitosan nanofiber sponge with distinct blood cell filtration and blood plasma absorption bifunction for rapid hemostasis.

Unusual variant of Cantrell′s pentalogy?

Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2008
A 12-hour-old male infant presented with prolapsed abdominal content through a defect on left side of chest wall with respiratory distress. A thorough clinical examination suggested absence of ectopia cordis, abdominal wall defect, and any bony anomaly ...

Cantrell Syndrome—A Rare Complex Congenital Anomaly: A Case Report and Literature Review

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
Cantrell syndrome (CS) or pentalogy of Cantrell is defined as a rare condition involving a midline anterior abdominal wall defect, a distal sternal cleft, a defect of the anterior diaphragm, and a defect of the apical pericardium with pericardio ...

Introducing Novel Surgical Clinical Correlations Into an Undergraduate Medical Anatomy Course

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomy education is a hallmark of many preclinical medical school curricula, but students are often unable to identify the clinical relevance of anatomy and its applications. Vertical curricula that integrate clinical concepts into the preclinical basic science years and vice versa have been shown to benefit student learning and increase ...

Combating cancer immunotherapy resistance: a nano‐medicine perspective

Cancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer immunotherapy offers renewed hope for treating this disease. However, cancer cells possess inherent mechanisms that enable them to circumvent each stage of the immune cycle, thereby evading anti‐cancer immunity and leading to resistance.

Lineage labeling with zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 recombinase CRISPR knock‐ins

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The ability to generate endogenous Cre recombinase drivers using CRISPR‐Cas9 knock‐in technology allows lineage tracing, cell type‐specific gene studies, and in vivo validation of inferred developmental trajectories from phenotypic and gene expression analyses. This report describes endogenous zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 drivers
