Introduction. The standard treatment of colovesical fistula is the removal of fistula, suture of bladder wall, and then colic resection with or without temporary colostomy. The open approach is more commonly used because the laparoscopic approach seems to have high conversion rates and morbidity. We report two cases of colovesical fistula treated with a laparoscopic conservative approach. We al...

In patients with tracheal injuries, conservative treatment is an alternative approach when surgical treatment is difficult. However, the success rate of conservative treatment is low when a ventilator is used constantly because of underlying lung disease, and successful conservative treatment requires the maintenance of as much self-respiration as possible without a ventilator. Here, we report ...

We present a semantic approach to the characterization of credulous and sceptical reasoning mechanisms, within the framework of ordered logic. One of the advantages of our approach is that it integrates thightly with "conservative" ordered logic semantics which is known to generalize "classical" (stable and wellfounded) logic programming semantics. This allows us to compare the conservative and...

Wandering spleen is a clinical entity which rarely affects children and adolescents. This condition can be asymptomatic or responsible of chronic pain, but it appears as a surgical emergency when an acute twisting occurs. The risk of post-splenectomy sepsis in the pediatric population suggests a conservative approach whenever possible, and also in case of acute torsion, most authors prefer to p...
