traumatic injuries to great vessels are relative common in trauma practice. blunt thoracic trauma may result in dissection injury to aorta and innominate artery. we herein present a late presentation of traumatic innominate artery aneurysm. a29-year-old woman presented with dyspnea to our emergency department. she had previous motor-vehicle accident a month before presentation for which had und...

The purpose of the study was to investigate, analyze and evaluate expression level HIF1A parenchymal-stromal relations after traumatic air shock wave exposure liver. Materials methods. material for liver 30 male rats, weighing 177.5 ± 15.8 g. All animals were randomly divided into three groups: group 1 consisted intact rats (n - 6), 2 – control (halothane anesthesia with fixation) 12), 3 12) ex...

Traumatic brain injury is a global health concern and is the leading cause of traumatic morbidity and mortality in children. Despite a lower overall mortality than in adult traumatic brain injury, the cost to society from the sequelae of pediatric traumatic brain injury is very high. Predictors of poor outcome after traumatic brain injury include altered systemic and cerebral physiology, includ...

Diffuse traumatic brain injury refers to widespread pattern of injury throughout the brain caused by traumatic disruption of nerve cells, with particular injury to the axons [1]. There are four principal types of traumatic brain injury: diffuse vascular injury, diffuse axonal injury, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and diffuse brain swelling [2]. Clinically, DAI is characterized by generalized ...

OBJECTIVE Patients with traumatic brain injury are particularly susceptible to sepsis, which may exacerbate the systemic inflammatory response and lead to organ dysfunction. The influence of clinical variables on the mortality of intensive care unit patients with traumatic brain injury and sepsis was investigated. METHODS The present investigation was a retrospective study involving 175 patie...

Background and Aim: Traumatic brain injury is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability in young adults. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate, the antioxidant compound of green tea, has been proposed to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study evaluates the potential effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate on the early clinical outcome and serum S100B levels (biomarker for ...

Traumatic bile leaks often result in high morbidity and prolonged hospital stay that requires multimodality management. Data on endoscopic management of traumatic bile leaks are scarce. Our study objective was to evaluate the efficacy of the endoscopic management of a traumatic bile leak. We performed a retrospective case review of patients who were referred for endoscopic retrograde cholangiop...

The liver and kidneys are the most commonly injured organs due to traumatic impact forces applied abdomen pose a challenge physicians hard-to-diagnose risk of internal bleeding. A better understanding mechanism injury will improve diagnosis, treatment, forensics, other fields. Finite element modelling is tool that can aid in this understanding, but accurate material properties required includin...
