Pelvic Pain after italian coffee consumption : Ischemic colitis (IC) is an inflammatory condition of the large intestine, or colon. It develops when there isn't enough blood flow to the colon.

Pelvic pain occurs mostly in the lower abdomen area. The pain might be steady, or it might come and go. It can be a sharp and stabbing pain in a specific spot, or a dull pain that is spread out. If the pain is severe, it might get in the way of your daily activities.Pelvic pain can be steady, or it can come and go. It can be a sharp and stabbing pain felt in a specific spot, or a dull pain that is spread out.

Ischemic colitis occurs when blood flow to part of the large intestine (colon) is temporarily reduced, usually due to constriction of the blood vessels supplying the colon or lower flow of blood through the vessels due to low pressures.

For patients who present with symptoms of ischemia, a CT scan of the abdomen with oral and IV contrast and laboratory testing can be performed. Manifestations of ischemic colitis on CT include colonic wall thickening, edema, thumbprinting, bowel dilatation, and effusion of intestinal circumference.

ROBOTIC REPAIR OF ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT WITH PARTIAL PULMONARY VENOUS RETURN ANOMALY: OUR 5‐YEAR EXPERIENCE

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader ROBOTIC REPAIR OF ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT WITH PARTIAL PULMONARY VENOUS RETURN ANOMALY: OUR 5‐YEAR EXPERIENCE Via The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery ABSTRACT Introduction Partial pulmonary venous return anomalies (PPVRA) were not considered as a good candidate for robotic surgery in early time of robotic cardiac surgery. In this study, we present our experience in patients undergoing robotic atrial septal defect (ASD) and PPVRA surgery. Methods Between November 2014-January 2020, data of 21 patients underwent robotic ASD with PPVRA was collected. Inclusion criterion was presence of right-sided PPVRA with ASD. All operations were performed robotically. Results The mean age of patients was 26.7±10.3 years. 17 patients (81 %) had superior-caval ASD with supracardiac PPVRA and double-patch technique was used. Four patients had inferior-caval ASD with intracardiac PPVRA and single-patch technique was preferred. Cross-clamp time and cardiopulmonary bypass time were 92.8±29.6 and 127.8±38.1, respectively. There was no mortality. One patient had atrioventricular-block and required pacemaker. Conclusion Robotic repair of ASD with PPVRA is feasible and effective method as an alternative to conventional surgery. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Comparison of Video Head Impulse Test Findings in Individuals Aged between 20–39 and 40–60 Years

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader Comparison of Video Head Impulse Test Findings in Individuals Aged between 20–39 and 40–60 Years Via Indian Journal of Otology Özge Gedik, Nilüfer Bal, Sümeyye Özdemir, Berna Özge Mutlu, Elifnur Taşdemir, Burcu Kaya, Eda Kurt, Nur Sema Kaya, Zeynep Durukan Indian Journal of Otology 2021 27(4):225-229 Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the normal gain values specific to each semicircular canals by using the goggle-less model of video head impulse test (vHIT) between ages of 20–39 and 40–60, gender and age-related gain values changes. Materials and Methods: The present study was performed in 99 participants aged 20–39 years and 100 participants aged 40–60 years. Each semicircular canal gain values were interpreted by comparing for both the age group of 20–39 and 40–60 years and gender. Results: The mean right lateral, right posterior, left lateral, and left posterior canal gain of 20–39 age group was significantly higher than the 40–60 age group. Regardless of age, while the mean left lateral canal gain in females was significantly higher than males, the mean right anterior and right posterior canal gain was significantly higher in males. The mean right lateral and the left lateral canal gains were significantly higher in females in the 20–39 year s' age group; however, the mean right anterior, right posterior, and left posterior canals gains were significantly higher in males than in females. The mean right lateral canal gain in males was significantly higher in the 40–60 age group than that of females. Conclusions: The vHIT as a standard test for vestibular assessment provides clinical benefits, in addition the comparing for different age groups for goggle-less vHIT model will provide more beneficial results in the evaluation of patients. In the literature, there are not many studies on the goggle-less vHIT device, so we believe our study will be a pioneer in this field. View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed.

The outcome of tympanic membrane grafting medial or lateral to malleus handle in type I underlay tympanoplasty

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader The outcome of tympanic membrane grafting medial or lateral to malleus handle in type I underlay tympanoplasty Via Indian Journal of Otology Namrata Dwivedi, Shalini Jain, Ashok Kumar Indian Journal of Otology 2021 27(4):180-184 Aims: This study aims to study and compare the outcome of tympanic membrane grafting medial or lateral to handle of malleus in terms of graft uptake and closure of air bone gap. Materials and Methods: This prospective randomized study included 60 patients who presented in the ENT Outpatient Department of ABVIMS and Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia hospital with Inactive chronic Otitis media (COM) (tubo tympanic disease). Patients were randomly allocated to two groups of 30 patients each. Group A contained patients with graft placed medial to handle of malleus and Group B contained patients with graft placed lateral to handle of malleus. Patients were followed up at the 4th, 6th, and 12th week postoperatively for graft uptake and hearing gain were assessed. Results: There was significant mean hearing gain postoperatively compared to preoperative in pure tone audiometry, however, there is no significant difference in short-term outcomes of both the grafting techniques for graft uptake and audio m etric results. Conclusion: Both medial and lateral placement of grafting material to malleus handle into type I underlay tympanoplasty are good methods for graft uptake and audiological outcome for inactive COM (Tubo tympanic disease).

Evolution of midface microvascular reconstruction: three decades of experience from a single institution

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader Evolution of midface microvascular reconstruction: three decades of experience from a single institution Via http://link.springer.com/journal/405,European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology,The European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol. 2022 Mar 22. doi: 10.1007/s00405-022-07321-x. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Midface reconstruction poses a complex set of challenges for reconstructive surgeons. The optimal midface reconstruction must possess a durable underlying bone construct capable of integrating dental implants. Facial contour is restored by the overlying microvascular soft tissue reconstruction with reestablishment of the oral cavity. A plethora of microvascular flaps used in clinical practice have been described including those harvested from the iliac crest, scapula, fibula, forearm and back (latissimus dorsi). The objective was to share our experiences with each of these treatment options that have continued to evolve over time for the benefit of patients. METHODS: Our institution has over three decades of experience in reconstructing complex midface defects and this article summarizes midface reconstruction from an evolutionary perspective (for type II, III and IV defect; Browns classification, Supplementary Table I). We broadly divide this into (i) flaps supplied by the subscapular system (ii) autologous reconstruction with titanium mesh and (iii) fibula microvascular flaps using 3D planning. RESULTS: The advantages and disadvantages for each approach are discussed (Supplementary Table II). CONCLUSION: In the future, it is expected that 3D planning coupled with rapid prototyping, intraoperative navigation and CT imaging will become standard procedural practice.
