Repair of incisional hernias was compared with four different techniques in 55 patients to determine the best method of repair with least chance of recurrence. The maximum incidence of incisional hernia was seen in 30-39 years age group and was most frequently seen after gynaecological surgery (37 cases). Forty eight (88%) patients were operated in emergency by trainee surgeons. Most hernias oc...

conclusions roll stitch technique had superior outcome compared to the modified kessler technique, when performed in the mcpj area. level of evidence: therapeutic (level iii) background proper suturing technique is needed to ensure good outcome in extensor tendon surgery. different techniques have been reported for the repair of extensor tendon injuries at the level of the metacarpophalangeal j...

cardiac rupture, particularly rupture of the left ventricular wall, has a very high mortality rate. in this occasion, even if injured patients being alive when carried to the hospital, many of them will die due to following possible reasons: severe bleeding, cardiac tamponade, wasting time for routine and usual diagnostic procedures or transferring the injured to other hospital equipped for car...

Abstract Aims There is limited evidence to guide the emergency management of acutely symptomatic abdominal wall and groin hernias (ASH) there a lack consensus on optimal surgical technique. This study aimed explore techniques used repair ASH. Methods A prospective 12-week cohort (NCT04197271) recruited adult patients with ASH across 23 UK sites. Baseline characteristics, quality life, strategy ...

Abstract Aim Minimal evidence exists guiding the emergency management of acutely symptomatic abdominal wall and groin hernias (ASH) there is a lack consensus on optimal surgical technique. The aim this study was to explore techniques used in repair ASH. Method A prospective 12-week cohort (NCT04197271) recruited adult patients with ASH across 23 UK sites. Baseline characteristics, quality life,...

Ventricular arrhythmias are common after repair of tetralogy of Fallot and are associated with late sudden death. This study examined the relation of ventricular arrhythmia during normal daily activities to the timing of repair, duration of follow up, and postoperative haemodynamic status. Forty eight hour ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring was performed in 145 patients: 60 (aged 3 mont...

Recurrence rate after a congenital diaphragmatic hernia repair is high especially after a patch repair. Recurrence can be asymptomatic, followed by respiratory or gastrointestinal symptoms and the diagnosis is usually confirmed radiologically. We present an unusual case of radiologically diagnosed recurrent left diaphragmatic hernia but at surgery was found to be a gastro-pleural fistula that o...

The various types of suture anchors have become widely accepted in the orthopaedic shoulder surgery. The common uses being for Bankarts repair and rotator cuff repair. The use of suture anchors in orthopaedic surgery for indications other than shoulder surgery is sparsely reported in the literature. We report on our observations from a single centre following use of anchors outside the shoulder...

Background: Intracranial pressure (ICP) control is one of the anesthesiologist challenges in craniosynostosis repair surgery, especially in multiple sutures involvement. The aim of this study was comparing the effect of two anesthesia methods including inhalation with hyperventilation and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) on ICP control and surgeon satisfaction in pediatrics with craniosynost...
