Conservative management of superior vena cava injury due to hemodialysis catheter placement: A case report and literature review
We reported the case of a 78-year old woman with the inadvertent superior vena cava injury resulting from hemodialysis catheter placement. The catheter was placed through the left internal jugular vein. Hemodynamics were stable. The initial chest film illustrated an extraluminal catheter and mediastinal widening. The patient did not have hemothorax. Computed tomography venography also confirmed...
متن کاملA new restriction endonuclease from Citrobacter freundii.
CfrI, a new restriction endonuclease of unique substrate specificity, has been isolated from a Citrobacterfreundii strain. The enzyme recognizes a degenerated sequence PyGGCCPu in double-strand DNA and cleaves it between Py and G residues to yield 5' -protruding tetranucleotide ends GGCC.
متن کاملCitrobacter freundii infection after acute necrotizing pancreatitis in a patient with a pancreatic pseudocyst: a case report

Although experimental and clinical studies suggest that the microbiologic source of pancreatic infection could be enteric, information in this regard is controversial. CASE PRESENTATION We describe a Citrobacter freundii isolation by endoscopy ult...
متن کاملGenetic Characterization of Atypical Citrobacter freundii
The ability of a bacterial population to survive in different niches, as well as in stressful and rapidly changing environmental conditions, depends greatly on its genetic content. To survive such fluctuating conditions, bacteria have evolved different mechanisms to modulate phenotypic variations and related strategies to produce high levels of genetic diversity. Laboratories working in microbi...
متن کاملContamination of transvenous pacemaker leads due to tunneled hemodialysis catheter infection: a report of 2 cases.
Catheter-related bacteremia is a frequent complication associated with the use of tunneled hemodialysis catheters. Catheter-related bacteremia can lead to metastasis of infection to other sites. This article presents 2 patients with transvenous pacemakers (placed >2 years ago) who were receiving long-term hemodialysis therapy using tunneled hemodialysis catheters. Both were admitted to the hosp...
