Challenges in Management of Mesenteric Ischemia: Review [PDF]

Mesenteric ischemia is a complex disease characterized by insufficient blood supply to the mesentery and, therefore, the intestinal tissue, which continues to confuse doctors. Despite its low frequency, consistent clinical manifestations of pathology and

Anchored but not safe: Rare but serious mechanical complications from peritoneal dialysis catheter suture fixation

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter fixation techniques are frequently employed to minimize migration and optimize dialysate flow. While mechanical complications of PD catheters are well recognized, adverse events directly attributable to anchoring sutures are rarely described. We report two patients with end‐stage renal failure (ESRF)

Acute mesenteric ischemia diagnosed via computed tomography in a dog following vehicular blunt force trauma: a Case Report

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) refers to a group of vascular disorders that disrupt intestinal blood flow, resulting in intestinal ischemia and necrosis if left untreated. In both humans and dogs, this condition appears to be rare but deadly.

The Fibula Free Flap as Used for Reconstruction in Patients With Oral Cavity Malignancy: A Systematic Review

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The fibula free flap is a widely used means of reconstructing the maxilla and mandible. It is used for a variety of indications, including for reconstruction after resection of a benign or malignant tumor, osteoradionecrosis, or trauma.

Identification of Acute Mesenteric Ischemia on 18F-FDG PET/CT.

, 2022
Acute mesenteric ischemia resulting in bowel necrosis is a surgical emergency. First identification of acute mesenteric ischemia with FDG PET/CT is uncommon, because patients with bowel ischemia are usually diagnosed by other imaging methods such as CT ...

Small bowel feces sign in association with occlusive mesenteric ischemia

Acta Radiologica Short Reports, 2014
Small bowel feces sign (SBFS) is a computed tomography (CT) finding that appears as fecal like material in dilated small bowel loops. This sign is usually seen in association with gradually progressive small bowel obstruction.

Small Bowel Cancer: Implications of Preoperative Work‐Up on Surgical Strategy

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Small bowel cancers comprise a heterogeneous group of malignancies, making diagnosis and treatment challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of preoperative diagnostic work‐up to predict clinical and histopathological findings, facilitate subgroup identification, and support tailored, individualized surgical strategies. Preoperative work‐up
