a 90 day study was conducted on twenty four indigenous non-descript goats allocated into four groups. they were fed ad libitum basal complete feed constituted rice straw: rhea (60:40) grass hay and concentrate mixture @ 250/animal/day. basal complete feed contain 11.07% dcp and 54.21% tdn. groups were control (t0) basal diet without polyherbal supplementation, treatment 1 (t1) diet with ruchama...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A minority of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas progress with time. We sought to determine features that predict progression and define outcomes of patients with progressive dural arteriovenous fistulas. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective imaging and clinical record review of patients with intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula evaluated at our...

AIM The aim of this study was to assess the outcome of fibrin glue in high and low anal fistulas. METHODS A prospective, non-randomized trial was carried out on 30 patients who were diagnosed to have fistulas in ano. They were evaluated by categorizing them into high (with the internal opening above the anorectal ring)(14/30) and low anal fistulas (with the internal opening below the anorecta...

Although arteriovenous fistulas are considered superior to grafts, it is unknown whether that is true in the subset of patients with a previous failed fistula. For investigation of this question, a prospective vascular access database was queried retrospectively to compare the outcomes of 59 fistulas and 51 grafts that were placed in the upper arm after primary failure of an initial forearm fis...

Coronary arteriovenous fistula (CAVF) is defined as direct connections between the coronary artery and one of cardiac cavities. It is generally derived from right coronary artery (RCA). Fistulas may be congenital or acquired (1). Coronary-pulmonary arterial fistulas (CPAF) constitute 15%-20% of all fistulas. They are mostly small, determined co-incidentally during coronary angiography (CAG), an...

Fistulas-in-ano represent the squelae of perianal abscesses in up to 50% of cases. The two essential goals in the treatment of anal fistulas are to eliminate the primary fistula opening and any associated tracts and secondary openings, and avoid any detriment in fecal continence. No single technique exists that is appropriate for the management of all fistulas. With this in mind, a review of th...

Congenital hepatoportal arteriovenous fistulas are a rare cause of segmental portal hypertension and splenic vein thrombosis (1–4). These may be intrahepatic or extrahepatic in location and present during infancy or early childhood with portal hypertension and gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to varices, ascites, malabsorption, anemia, and congestion of the bowel (5). In childhood, arteriopo...

Perianal manifestations of Crohn's disease (CD) are common and, of them, fistulas are the most common. Perianal fistulas can be extremely debilitating for patients and are often very challenging for clinicians to treat. CD perianal fistulas usually require multidisciplinary and multimodality treatment, including both medical and surgical approaches. The majority of patients require multiple sur...

conclusions based on the results of this study and according to the 1117 sensitivity of mri, it’s useful to locate the perianal fistulas, reduce the chance of recurrence and postoperative complications and can contribute the healing process better than other diagnostic methods. results amongst the total of 14 patients,in 1 patient (7117) transsphincteric fistula, 11 patients (78167) intersphinc...
