[ 1 ] - Human amniotic membrane effect on colorectal anastomosis in dogs undergoing radiotherapy with/without diverting stoma: An experimental preliminary study

Background: : Radiotherapy is an important factor which results in increase of anastomosis leakage. Diverting loop ileostomy has been usually performed after colorectal anastomosis with history of neo-adjuvant radiotherapy to decrease the chance of leakage. Considering this effect, we assessed the feasibility and outcome of human amniotic membrane in rectal anastomosis in dogs previously treate...

[ 2 ] - Effects of Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy on Anorectal Function: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is a safe and acceptable alternative to traditional hemorrhoidectomy with shorter hospital stay, better satisfaction, and less postoperative pain. There have, however, been reports on early and late complications. Therefore, the present study was designed to assess the impact of stapled hemorrhoidopexy on anorectal function and continence. Methods: Sixty-one ...

[ 3 ] - Human Amniotic Membrane Effect on Perianal Fistula Healing in Rabbits: An Experimental Study

Background: Perianal fistula is a complicated disorder and most difficult to manage. New treatment methods would help surgeons to achieve a better outcome in patients with perianal fistula. Human amniotic membrane (HAM) has positive effects on wound healing in several conditions. The present study aimed to further determine the effect of HAM on wound healing of perianal fistula in rabbits.Metho...

[ 4 ] - Investigation of the effect of the family-centered empowerment model on the self-care ability of patients with colorectal cancer

Background and Aim: Colorectal cancer is a chronic disease that reduces the patients’ quality of life. Therefore, it is essential to have self-care ability. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the family-centered empowerment model on the self-care ability of patients with colorectal cancer. Materials and Methods: This randomized controlled study consisted of all patients who referred...
