Introduction: Liver surgery is a relatively recent and relatively major complex surgery, due
to the anatomical and histological specialty of the liver.
Objective of the research: To evaluate the results of the cases of non traumatic liver
resectio
n from November 2010 until the end of June 2017
The study included 23 patients with 61% of females and average age of 46.8 years. 30.43%
of the cases were benign lesions, while malignant lesions constituted 65.12% of all
patients. The highest percentage of lesions was of colorectal tumors with 66.66% of all
metastatic patients and 43.47% of all patients. Whereas hepatocellular carcinoma HCC
were only in 4.35% of all patients
The most common surgical procedure was segment resection. The left or right hemi
hepatectomy was in two cases, 8.7%
None of the patients had any complications which requiring a reoperation. Biliary fistula
occurred in two cases, one of which was administered conservatively, the other requiring
ERCP.
This study aims to know the effect of PRP on bone healing and regeneration after cystoectomy within studying clinical and radiological bone density changes. The research sample comprised 18 patients (14 males, 4 females) (20 cystic lesions in the upp
er jaw,1-3 cm diameter). This sample was divided into 2 similar groups :
The experimental group: Platelets-rich Plasma with Tri-Calcium Phosphate was applied.
The control group: only Tri-Calcium Phosphate, without Platelets-rich Plasma, was applied.
Both groups were observed clinically and radiologically. According to radiological observation, the digital panoramic radiographs were taken before, immediately after surgery, after 3 months, and after 6 months, respectively. Bone density measurements were done through Digora® digital program.
The present study showed that there is no statistical difference between the experimental group & the control group, regarding Pain Index and Infection Index; while there was a statistical difference between the experimental group & the control group, regarding bone density after 3 and 6 months after surgery.
Within the limitations of the present study, the application of autologous platelets-rich plasma (PRP) accelerates bone regeneration after cystoectomy.
The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of
pulmonary hydatid cysts, determine the best approach of surgical
treatment, and determine the outcomes of hydatid disease in, isolated or
coexisting pulmonary or extrapulmonary hydatidosis.
The study was conducted at the Department of
Thoracic Surgery at Damascus University, between January 1993 and
December 2002, on 206 patients
This study was performed in children’s hospital of Damascus University which
included all cases of hydatid cysts admitted to the hospital between 1/1/1994 and
1/9/1996.
The number of cases totaled 47 which accounted for 1.4 to 2.4 per 1000
admission in different years.
