the main goal of this report was to share with clinicians an atypical presentation of pulmonary thromboembolism (pte) in a young male`s post-appendectomy, whom he had no significant predisposing factors for such disease. the case also introduced for re-examining the challenges of pte clinical manifestations which may mimic other differential diagnosis. pte is an abrupt blockage of the pulmonary...

background: deep vein thrombosis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. however, its association with adenomatous polyposis coli is extremely rare. here we present an interesting case of deep vein thrombosis associated with adenomatous polyposis coli. case presentation: a 15 year old female who was having fever and diarrhea for 5 months developed bilateral asymmetric painful swelling...

The Suyoc prospect is an epithermal vein-type mineralization located at the southern part of Mankayan Mineral District, Northern Luzon, Philippines. prospect’s veins are hosted in volcaniclastic rocks and conglomerate, which belong to Late Oligocene Early Miocene Balili Formation Middle Conglomerate, respectively. These classified into three major types: quartz vein, quartz-sulfide quartz-carbo...

BACKGROUND Data on the comparative value of the circumferential pulmonary vein and the segmental pulmonary vein ablation for interventional treatment of atrial fibrillation are limited. We hypothesized that the circumferential pulmonary vein ablation approach was superior to the segmental pulmonary vein ablation approach. METHODS AND RESULTS One hundred patients with highly symptomatic atrial...

The ramifications of the portal vein in the liver of horses were studied by using corrosion casting and gross dissection. The portal vein in the horse supplies the hepatic lobes by six major branches. The right lobe is supplied by three main branches, namely the dorsal diaphragmatic, the right caudodorsal and the right intermediate branches. The left branch supplies the left lateral and medial ...

PURPOSE Various alternative conduits have been used for lower extremity revascularization when an adequate ipsilateral greater saphenous vein is absent. This study compared the effectiveness of all-autogenous multisegment arm vein bypass grafts with that of composite grafts composed of combined prosthetic and autogenous conduits. METHODS One hundred fifty-three lower extremity revascularizati...

Objective- Comprehensive functional, histomorphometrical and immunohistochemical assessment of sciatic nerve regeneration through an inside-out vein graft in rat. Design- Experimental in vivo study. Animals- Fifty- four healthy male White Albino rats. Procedures- The rats were divided into three experimental groups (n=18), randomly: Sham-operation (NC), Transected control (TC) and Inside-out ve...

An incidence of a left superior vena cava with a left azygos vein was found in a cadaver during an Osaka Dental University student's dissection practice session in 2002. The left superior vena cava began from the confluence between the right and left brachiocephalic veins, and extended directly into the left superior edge of the coronary sinus. No right superior vena cava was observed. The left...
