Is Cholesteatoma a Risk Factor for Graft Success Rate in Chronic Otitis Media Surgery?
Introduction: In developing countries, chronic otitis media (COM) and cholesteatoma are relatively prevalent. Within the field of otology, COM surgery remains one of the most common surgical treatments. Most recent studies evaluating the potential prognostic factors in COM surgery have addressed graft success rate and types of middle ear and mastoid pathology. There has been much controversy a...
متن کاملPeri-procedural outcome of saphenous vein graft intervention.
BACKGROUND Patients who develop recurrent myocardial ischemia after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery are often referred for percutaneous coronary intervention. The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and peri-procedural outcomes in patients with prior CABG referred for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) over a 3 year period. METHODS Data were ...
متن کاملReduced procedural risk for coronary catheter interventions in carriers of the coagulation factor VII-Gln353 gene.
OBJECTIVES We have focused on the role of coagulation factor VII (FVII) Arg353Gln polymorphism as a risk predictor of complications following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), directional coronary atherectomy (DCA), and stenting. BACKGROUND The FVII Arg353Gln mutation decreases FVII activity, and presence of the Gln353 allele could be protective against thrombus formation...
متن کاملThe risk factors affecting the complications of saphenous vein graft harvesting in aortocoronary bypass surgery.
Problems of wound healing are commonly observed after coronary bypass grafting (CABG) operations. Our aim is to determine the prevalence and the predictors of saphenous vein harvesting complications after coronary artery bypass surgery. One hundred twenty six patients operated in the specified period were included in this prospective study. In an early period 3 patients were excluded because of...
متن کاملAngioscopic Observation of an Endoluminal Stent Graft: CT Imaging versus Angioscopic Imaging
We could observe the endoluminal stent graft (SG) following thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) by a coronary artery angioscope and establish intravascular visualization of SG. The patient was a 70-year-old woman with the distal aortic arch aneurysm and the descending aortic aneurysm, and debranching TEVAR were performed. After 12 months follow up, urgent hospitalization was required ...
