The morphological parameters involved position, relation, shape, length, width, weight each gland. results in ampulla ductus deferens spindle shape strcture ends part deferens, located dorsaly urinary bladder opened into ejaculatory duct, measured 1.85±0.04cm, 3.81±0.18mm 0.96±0.02g 7.57±0....

External dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is the gold standard surgical technique for the treatment of nasolacrimal duct obstruction (1). Since its introduction by Gibbs in 1967, intubation with silicone tubes has been widely used in lacrimal duct surgery (2). However, effect of silicone intubation on patency of lacrimal system during external DCR in cases of primary nasolacrimal duct obstruction (N...

Microsurgical repair of obstructive male infertility is a challenge for the physician, but successful treatment depends on the experience and skills of the surgeon. Fertility can often be restored, thus avoiding the need for artificial reproductive techniques. The surgical procedures can be combined with sperm aspiration and cryopreservation, to be used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection in c...

PURPOSE Dacryoscintigraphy is widely known to be an effective modality in diagnosing abnormalities of the lacrimal system that cause epiphora (pathological overflow of tear). However, dacryoscintigraphy rarely serves beyond the simple diagnostic use for lacrimal duct obstruction. In our study, dacryoscintigraphy results of patients with functional lacrimal duct obstruction are newly classified ...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com described by Santorini in 1775, is the smaller and less constant pancreatic duct, but is the main drainage duct of the dorsal pancreatic bud in the embryo [1]. A patent of accessory pancreatic duct might protect the pancreas from the harmful consequences of obstruction of the Wirsung duct, but also promote biliary pancreatic reflux during obstructio...

INTRODUCTION Patent vitellointestinal duct occurs in about 2% of the population which unusually leads to small intestinal obstruction associated with high morbidity and mortality. Here we are reporting an unusual case of patent vitellointestinal duct causing small intestinal obstruction in an adult patient. PRESENTATION OF CASE A 22-year-old male without any medical illness presented as an em...

Endoscopic pancreatic stenting has been widely used in various pancreatic conditions. With the increasing use of pancreatic stents, many complications have been recognized. Especially, proximal stent migration presents a serious condition because of subsequent pancreatic duct obstruction, impaired drainage, ductal dilation, and pancreatic pain. Although endoscopic retrieval is the preferred tre...
