Extended Open Transgastric Necrosectomy (EOTN) as a Safer Procedure for Necrotizing Pancreatitis [PDF]
The treatment of infected necrotizing pancreatitis has evolved from time to time and the success of surgical intervention depends on the timing of necrosectomy. Bacterial infection occurs in 40–70% of patients with necrotizing pancreatitis. Infection is

Background and study aims Infected necrotic collections extending deep into the retroperitoneum may not be amenable solely to endoscopic necrosectomy. Rendezvous transgastric and percutaneous sinus tract endoscopic necrosectomy was conceived to maximize ...

Role of the double muscle gastrocnemius-soleus flap in soft tissue defect reconstruction of the leg in children: Case series [PDF]
The reconstructive surgeon faces a problem when dealing with larger soft tissue lesions over the knee and the proximal two thirds of the tibia, two crucial sites of the lower limb. Large free flaps or pedicled local flaps are two solutions of the problem.
