Umbilical hernias and cirrhose

Journal of Visceral Surgery, 2012
Umbilical hernia (UH) is the most frequent abdominal wall complication of ascites in cirrhotic patients. Treatment to control ascites, which mainly consists of repeated paracentesis or transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), is mandatory; otherwise the risk of hernia recurrence is very high.

A Population‐Based Study of Limb Body Wall Complex With Proposed Features for Prenatal Diagnosis

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limb body wall complex (LBWC) is a lethal condition comprising major congenital anomalies. Although currently diagnosed in the early prenatal period, historical diagnostic criteria are based on detailed pathological assessments. Prenatal and postnatal findings of LBWC and their phenotypic overlap with body stalk anomaly (BSA) and recurrent ...

Stratification of surgical site infection by operative factors and comparison of infection rates after hernia repair [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: The National Healthcare Safety Network does not risk adjust surgical site infection (SSI) rates after hernia repair by operative factors. We investigated whether operative factors are associated with risk of SSI after hernia repair.

Trisomy 5p: Long Recognized, Rarely Published‐ Three New Cases and Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complete trisomy 5p is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5. Current data suggest that complete trisomy 5p presents as a distinct clinical syndrome including but not limited to seizures, developmental delays, facial dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and recurrent respiratory infections.
