Experimental model of extended repeated partial hepatectomy in the dog.

Title Effects of Hepatic Periarterial Neurectomy upon Hepatic Blood Flow and Regeneration of the Liver after Partial Hepatectomy in the Dog

Comparative Expression Analysis of HSP70, HSP90, IL-4, TNF, KITLG and KIT-receptor Gene between Varicocele-Induced and Non-Varicocele Testes of Dog

Objective This research was designed to induce an experimental varicocele model by a simple surgery in dog with minimum invasion and to investigate the expression of many genes (HSP90, HSP70, IL-4, TNF, KITLG and KIT receptor) involved in the varicocele-induced infertility. MaterialsAndMethods In this completely randomized design study, 6 adult dogs were used for this experiment. In one testis ...

Repeated Hepatectomy for Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholangiolocellular Carcinoma: Report of a Case.

The patient was a 59-year-old female. A liver tumor measuring 10 cm was found in the right hepatic lobe by medical examination of August, 2008 and she underwent extended right hepatectomy in September. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of small cuboidal cells possessing oval nuclei and resembling cholangiole. These formed small tubular structures with fibrous stroma. From a result of hist...

Partial Preservation of Segment IV Confers No Benefit When Performing Extended Right Hepatectomy for Colorectal Liver Metastases

Introduction. Reducing the volume of resected liver parenchyma may lead to lower morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to determine whether partial preservation of segment IV leads to improved outcomes when undertaking extended right hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Materials and Methods. A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing right-sided hepatectomy for...

Stimulation of hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy by infusion of a cytosol extract from regenerating dog liver.

A cytosol liver extract was prepared from adult dog livers and from liver remnants that had been regenerating for one, two and three days after 72 per cent partial hepatectomy. Given intraportally, the most active of these cytosols did not stimulate proliferation in the livers of normal dogs. However, infused during a six hour period into the portal vein of test group dogs, the cytosol from 48 ...
