Background: Bladder is one of urinary tract that anatomically close to gynecological organs. The risk iatrogenic bladder injuries an undesirable event. It can increase in obstetric and procedures. We identified the factors for be at beginning operations. One which related distorted pelvic anatomy, including adhesions, history surgery, endometriosis obesity. type surgery also plays a role increa...

What are they? Focal adhesions are the anchor points of the cell. These dynamic cytoskeletal structures are regions where the cell membrane firmly attaches to the extracellular matrix or the substratum. At the same time, focal adhesions provide scaffolding; they associate with an elaborate actin network inside the cell. Importantly, it’s now known that focal adhesions also act as communication ...

This article is part 2 of our review assessing diagnostic modalities. In the first part, we analyzed ultrasonography capabilities to detect abdominal adhesions. The second assesses effectiveness MRI and CT. CT modalities are much less commonly used in detecting adhesions than ultrasonography. has approximately same prognostic as between viscera wall, it additionally detects organs. Yet, signifi...

STUDY OBJECTIVE The presence of pleural adhesions may render video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) difficult or impossible. The aim of this study was to assess the value of chest CT in the detection of pleural adhesions prior to VATS. DESIGN Prospective study of the accuracy of chest CT in detecting pleural adhesions prior to VATS. SETTING Tertiary-referra; teaching hospital and Veter...

Focal adhesions are dynamic structures in which traction forces are exerted against the substratum during cell migration and are sites for the organization of signaling complexes. Palazzo and Gundersen discuss how focal adhesions may also be the site of cross-talk between the actin-based and microtubule-based cytoskeletons. Microtubules appear to deliver factors that can regulate the formation ...

INTRODUCTION j Postsurgical adhesions are a highly prevalent complication of abdominal and pelvic surgery,” generating significant morbidity. In major gynecologic surgery, post-operative adhesions are estimated to occur at a rate of 60-90% (Monk et al. 1994), with at least 15 20% of female infertility cases attributed to pelvic adhesions (Milingos et al. 2OOOb, Drollette and Badawy 1992). Posts...

Fibronectin matrix formation requires the increased cytoskeletal tension generated by cadherin adhesions, and is suppressed by membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP). In a co-culture of Rat1 fibroblasts and MT1-MMP-silenced HT1080 cells, fibronectin fibrils extended from Rat1 to cell-matrix adhesions in HT1080 cells, and N-cadherin adhesions were formed between Rat1 and HT1080 cells...

Cell migration requires the coordination of adhesion site assembly and turnover. Canonical models for nascent adhesion formation postulate that integrin binding to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins results in the rapid recruitment of cytoskeletal proteins such as talin and paxillin to integrin cytoplasmic domains. It is thought that integrin-talin clusters recruit and activate tyrosine kinase...

Adhesions complicate most intra-peritoneal operations. Once adhesions have formed, patients are at life-long risk for complications that include small bowel obstruction, increased risks during subsequent operations and female infertility. This has two implications for the daily work of surgeons. On the one hand, surgeons need to include the risks from adhesions during pre-operative consent. On ...
