Aim : To study the features of morpho-functional changes in small intestine mucosa acute adhesive bowel obstruction. Material and methods . The results a comprehensive morphological functional intestine’s mucous membrane 20 patients out 50 with intestinal obstruction were analyzed. Patients underwent resection biopsy from membrane, followed by pathomorphological biochemical examination specimen...

AIM To determine (a) the expression of plasma cell related antigens in extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphomas (EMZL) of the ocular adnexa; and (b) the prognostic value of plasmacellular differentiation in these tumours. METHODS A consecutive case series of 136 ocular adnexal EMZL obtained from three ocular pathology centres over 20 years was analysed retrospectively. An extensive immunohis...

BACKGROUND The discrimination between benign and malignant adnexal masses is central to decisions regarding clinical management and surgical planning in such patients. PURPOSE OF STUDY To determine if the RMI (RMI 2) can distinguish between benign and malignant adnexal masses. METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted of 58 women with an adnexal mass referred to a teaching hospital f...

OBJECTIVE Investigation of initial 51 cases of single port access (SPA) laparoscopic surgery for large adnexal tumors and evaluation of safety and feasibility of the surgical technique. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of the first 51 patients who received SPA laparoscopic surgery for large adnexal tumors greater than 10 cm, from July 2010 to February 2015. RESULTS SP...

Pedicle torsion of adnexal cysts results from the increased weight of cysts, longer length of the ovarian and suspensory ligaments or ovarian teratoma. Color doppler ultrasonography is particularly important for detecting suspected cyst torsion. Laparoscopy is becoming more important in the early diagnosis and treatment of adnexal cyst torsion due to its advantages, such as its minimally invasi...

Orbital and ocular adnexal lymphomas are rare and represent around 1-2% of lymphomas and about 8% of the extranodal lymphomas. However, these entities represent the majority of orbital malignancies. Lymphomas of the ocular adnexal region are primary or secondary lymphomas, and the majority of them are composed of small, mature lymphocytes, which provide a large differential diagnosis. Thus, the...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Adnexal torsion is a surgical emergency, which requires immediate recognition and prompt treatment. This article aims to systematically illustrate the most relevant approach to follow in cases of suspected adnexal torsion in adolescents. We based our evaluation of the role of clinical features, laboratory tests, and imaging on recent literature, till we consider the most appro...

INTRODUCTION Management of Adnexal masses poses a double edged problem. There is a dilemma of performing extensive surgery in the form of staging laparotomy for a benign disease on one hand and the lurking fear of missing the diagnosis of malignancy on the other. Thus, it seems that it is important to establish risk profiles of all patients with adnexal masses so that they can reap the benefit ...

OBJECTIVE We propose a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guided approach to differential diagnosis of ovarian tumours based on morphological appearance. BACKGROUND Characterization of ovarian lesions is of great importance in order to plan adequate therapeutic procedures, and may influence patient's management. Optimal assessment of adnexal masses requires a multidisciplinary approach, based o...
