Complete and safe resection of challenging retroperitoneal tumors: anticipation of multi-organ and major vascular resection and use of adjunct procedures. [PDF]
, 2011 BackgroundRetroperitoneal tumors are often massive and can involve adjacent organs and/or vital structures, making them difficult to resect. Completeness of resection is within the surgeon's control and critical for long-term survival, particularly for ...

Vascular access for haemodialysis: from surgical procedure to an integrated therapeutic approach [PDF]
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1998 During the past 10 years the type of vascular access for haemodialysis procedures have changed markedly in our centre: more elbow AV fistulae and more central venous catheters are now used. Nevertheless, early referral to nephrologists and availability of central venous catheters and peritoneal dialysis allow elderly people to be admitted for dialysis ...

Effectiveness of antimicrobial-coated sutures for the prevention of surgical site infection: a review of the literature [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVE:Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the third most common hospital-acquired infections and account for 14% to 16% of all such infections, and suture material may play a role in SSI rate.

Automating Vascular Shunt Insertion with the dVRK Surgical Robot [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Vascular shunt insertion is a fundamental surgical procedure used to temporarily restore blood flow to tissues. It is often performed in the field after major trauma. We formulate a problem of automated vascular shunt insertion and propose a pipeline to perform Automated Vascular Shunt Insertion (AVSI) using a da Vinci Research Kit. The pipeline uses a

Assessment of surgical performance [PDF]
, 2017 Surgical patient outcomes are related to technical and non-technical skills of the surgeon. Trauma patient operative and management experience has declined since trainee duty-hour restrictions were mandated in 2003 resulting in less experience in ...

Robust Self-Supervised Learning of Deterministic Errors in Single-Plane (Monoplanar) and Dual-Plane (Biplanar) X-ray Fluoroscopy [PDF]
, 2020 Fluoroscopic imaging that captures X-ray images at video framerates is advantageous for guiding catheter insertions by vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists. Visualizing the dynamical movements non-invasively allows complex surgical procedures to be performed with less trauma to the patient.

Outcomes from mesenteric-portal axis resection during pancreatectomy
ABCD: Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva, 2014 BACKGROUND: Due to their complexity and risks, mesenteric-portal axis resection and reconstruction during the pancreatectomy procedure were not recommended back in the early nineties.

Connecting continuum poroelasticity with discrete synthetic vascular trees for modeling liver tissue [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Computational simulations have the potential to assist in liver resection surgeries by facilitating surgical planning, optimizing resection strategies, and predicting postoperative outcomes. The modeling of liver tissue across multiple length scales constitutes a significant challenge, primarily due to the multiphysics coupling of mechanical response ...
