Vaginal evisceration of small bowel through vaginal cuff dehiscence after total abdominal hysterectomy is a rare complication in case of pre-menopausal women, which is sporadically mentioned in the literature. We have reported a case of small bowel evisceration through vaginal cuff dehiscence within two hours of first vaginal intercourse following 48 days of Radical hysterectomy which was indic...

BACKGROUND Microbiological standards within pork slaughter processing plants in the European Union are currently governed by Commission Regulation (EC) 2073/2005, which describes detailed performance criteria at specific stages of the procedure (following carcass dressing and before chilling) for total viable counts (TVC), Enterobacteriaceae (EB) and Salmonella spp. In this study, 95 carcasses ...

•44 year old woman treated with bevacizumab for metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer•The patient experienced vaginal cuff dehiscence and evisceration at 8 months post-operatively.•Metastasis at the surgical site and chronic inflammation implicated.

There is a demand by certain ethnic consumer groups in the United Kingdom for skin-on, singed carcasses, primarily from older sheep, but their production is illegal under current EU legislation. The aim of this study was to devise a protocol to produce carcasses having the desired 'smoked' colour and odour and an acceptable microbiology. A successful result could form the basis of a case to rev...

INTRODUCTION This study compares the outcomes and complications of hydroxyapatite ocular implant and non-integrated ocular implants following evisceration. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study of 90 patients who underwent evisceration for different ocular affections, in the Ophthalmology Department of the University Emergency Hospital Bucharest, between January 2009 and Decembe...

A 66 year old woman presented to A&E with per vagina bleeding and a mass protruding from the vagina. The patient was examined under anaesthesia, which revealed vaginal prolapse with evisceration of approximately 20-30 cm of bowel. The patient had received an abdominal hysterectomy 30 years ago for menorrhagia. In the last decade, the patient had experienced other recurrent episodes of prolapse ...

Previously it was reported that large localization of radioactivity was found in liver, kidney and spleen following the intravenous injection of I 131-labeled Parotin to rats(Tanaka and Ito,1958). And subsequently it was also observed that the rate of degradation of I 131-labeled Parotin in vivo was remarkably decreased by the simultaneous injection of intact Parotin with the labeled Parotin to...

Single nucleotide polymorphism in microRNAs (miRNA) may influence their target gene selection and regulation efficiency, leading to animal phenotypic variation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the miRNA-1757 gene precursor region (pre-mir-1757) on economic-related traits in chicken. Genotyping was performed using Sequenom MassArray...
