OBJECTIVES Intraosseous access is a rapid and effective route of fluid and drug administration. Its use has been proven in emergency medicine, pediatrics, and the military. We aimed to assess its performance and utilization against landmark-guided central venous catheter placement during inpatient medical emergencies. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Eight hundred fifty-six-b...

Intraosseous hemangioma is a benign vascular neoplasm, which is mostly seen in vertebrae, maxillofacial bones, and long bones. Intraosseous hemangioma is rarely seen on jaw bones compared to other skeletal bones and usually occurs in the cavernous form. Capillary intraosseous hemangioma of jaws is an uncommon form of intraosseous hemangioma and has not been thoroughly described so far. In this ...

The technique of intraosseous (IO) infusion has been reemerged as an alternative route of intravascular access for the delivery of fluids and some medications. Complications of IO infusion occur rarely and include fractures and osteomyelitis after long-term use of IO access. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of induction of anaesthesia by a standard intravenous route and a...

STUDY OBJECTIVE Intraosseous needle insertion during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is rapidly replacing peripheral intravenous routes in the out-of-hospital setting. However, there are few data directly comparing the effectiveness of intraosseous needle insertions with peripheral intravenous insertions during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The objective of this study is to determine whether t...

Early pathologic reports of corpus callosal lipoma described a consistent relationship between the lipoma and the dorsal surface of the corpus callosum, particularly when the lipoma is not associated with corpus callosal agenesis. MR imaging, especially T1-weighted sagittal acquisitions, exquisitely demonstrated this anatomic relationship in three relatively asymptomatic patients. Therefore, in...

colonic lipoma is a benign neoplasm that can lead to colonic obstruction but concomitant intussusception is rare in adults. in this case, colocolic intussusception due to a lipoma in the descending colon had occurred. by laparatomy, we diagnosed the problem , but reduction was impossible . so resection of the colon with mass was done and anastomosed. after surgery and 3 years follow up the pati...

Spindle cell lipoma is a rare lipoma, originates from subcutaneous tissue and mostly seen at back region. In this case report we represent a case with inguinal mass misdiagnosed as inguinal hernia and then diagnosed as spindle cell lipoma. There are two cases in literature with spindle cell lipoma originating from spermatic cord. This case is unique as having both pheochromacytoma and inguinal ...

a young patient who presented with headache followed by positive and negative symptoms of psychosis and mutism was sent for the mri of brain. mri revealed a lipoma in the quardrigeminal area. we hypothesized that the neuro-vascular encasement of structures located at the upper dorsal midbrain by the lipoma caused the symptoms. a review of the current literature of quadrigeminal lipoma cases wit...
