A Surgical Technique for Portal Vein Decompression in Retransplantation

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2011
Liver retransplantation is the only option for people who have a failing liver graft, but it can be technically challenging. Intraperitoneal adhesions often form after abdominal operations, which is true in liver retransplantation as well. Also, the liver hilum is scarred, which makes hilar dissection more difficult.

Surgical Decompression of Blowout Fracture

1978
Treatment of blowout fracture is the repositioning of orbital contents and the reconstruction of the orbital floor. The complete repositioning of orbital contents between fractured bone fragments is not so easy. It is rather difficult, especially when the fracture lies in a deep area of the orbital floor and spreads out wide, even under the operation ...
