â  â  b ackground cystic fibrosis (cf) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a cf trans-membrane regulator (cftr) defect. its prevalence is 1:2500 in caucasians, 1:15300 among african americans and is rare in southâ­east asia. the present study aims to review demographic data, clinical manifestations and laboratory findings of iranian children diagnosed with cf who referred to a childrenâ...

The Coeliac trunk is the first Ventral branch of abdominal aorta arising at the level of twelfth thoracic (T12) vertebra. The hepatic, splenic and left gastric arteries are considered as main classic branches of Coeliactrunk. We report a case of variation in the branching pattern of Coeliac trunk wherein the left inferior phrenic artery was seen arising from left gastric artery and there were t...

Numerous variations of the hepatic arteries are common in surgical patients. We present a 35-year-old woman who was admitted to our department in order to assess possibility of becoming living donor. Preoperative computed tomography scan revealed anomalous branching pattern of the hepatic arteries. In this case right posterior sectoral artery has been given off by the greater pancreatic artery,...

INTRODUCTION Variations in the number and course of the testicular arteries, often coexisting with variations of the other branches arising from the abdominal aorta, are still reported to be of interest to urology surgeons. CASE PRESENTATION During a routine dissection course, an unusual origin of the double left testicular artery was observed in the cadaver of a 68-year-old Caucasian man who...

The diagnostic and therapeutic effectiveness of combined double-balloon endoscopy with a short endoscope and peroral direct cholangioscopy with an ultraslim endoscope in patients who have altered gastrointestinal anatomy has been demonstrated [1–5]. We describe successful biliary drainage with a short double-balloon endoscope and peroral direct cholangioscopy in a patient who had cholangitis af...

Objectives: The present study compares the clinicopathological features and outcomes of two cystic stump closure techniques (locking clips intra-corporeal ligation with silk sutures) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: This was conducted in a tertiary health centre as prospective observational between October 5, 2021, February 15, 2022. For randomisation, double rows sutures were used...

Abstract Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder, which caused by the CFTR protein defects. Along with dysfunction, inflammation plays key role in disease outcomes. Inflammation may develop due to internal dysfunction of or external factors. Curcumin affects function primarily as corrector and potentiator secondary an anti-inflammatory antimicrobial agent. The present study aims a...

A 34 months-old male patient with double inlet right ventricle with nonconfluent pulmonary arteries who underwent successful extracardiac fenestarated Fontan procedure using pre-designed T-shaped PTFE vascular graft after multi-step rehabilitation of the diminutive hilar pulmonary arteries. At first we performed 6 mm confluent pulmonary artery vascular graft implantation with 4 mm BT shunt at p...

context cystic fibrosis (cf) is the most widespread autosomal recessive genetic disorder that limits life expectation amongst the caucasian population. as the median survival has increased related to early multidisciplinary intervention, other manifestations of cf have emergedespecially for the broad spectrum of hepatobiliary involvement. the present study reviews the existing literature on liv...

abstract: primary adenoid cystic carcinoma (acc) of bartholin’s gland is a rare gynecologic malignancy. we report a case of locally advanced acc of bartholin’s gland. a 62-year-old presented with left bartholin’s gland carcinoma and underwent left radical vulvectomy,left-sided inguinal-femoral lymph node dissection, posterior pelvic exenteration, and pedicle abdominal muscle flap. on her 3 mont...
