AIRWAY MANAGEMENT IN LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY - A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS.

In this study, we aimed to compare supraglottic airway devices (Supreme and i-gel laryngeal mask) with tracheal tube with respect to airway control and efficiency in ventilation and oxygenation. The study included 325 patients of ASA I-II who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In group 1, the airway was secured using endotracheal intubation (115 patients).

Femoral artery blowout syndrome following radical vulvectomy and radiation therapy.

Arterial blowout syndrome has mostly been described in carotid arteries and has been attributed to factors associated with head and neck neoplasia, radical resection, and a history of irradiation. Only sporadic cases have been described in other arteries. Herein we present a case of the femoral artery blowout syndrome, six months after radical surgery of the vulva and radiation therapy.

Effectiveness of an intraoral thermoformed splint with magnet device in patients with xerostomia and hyposalivation: A pilot study.

Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the effectiveness of intraoral thermoformed splint with a magnet device over a period of 3 months, that is, to assess acceptability of this method of treatment using both objective and self-reported measures.

Materials And Methods: This study was designed as a prospective clinical pilot trial. 22 patients with xerostomia and hyposalivation were included.

Primary hydatid disease of the transverse abdominal muscle A case report.

Introduction: Echinococcus is a parasitic disease that affects all organs and tissues. The most commonly affected are liver (70-80%) and lungs (10-25%), while very rarely, in about 5% of cases, it can be found in the spleen, kidneys, brain, heart, pancreas, muscles and skeleton.

Case Report: Although localization of hydatid cyst in muscle is rare, it is important to consideredPORT it in the differential diagnosis of a cystic mass in the muscle.

Severe Anaphylactic Reaction to Diclofenac during Intravenous Anesthesia for In Vitro Fertilization.

We present a case of a severe anaphylactic reaction to diclofenac, administered as an intravenous infusion in a 45-year-old patient, during intravenous anesthesia for in vitro fertilization. During the preoperative clinical examination and obtaining of anamnestic data, the patient denied symptoms of allergies to medicines and other substances. The dominant clinical manifestations of anaphylactic reaction were: hypotension, tachycardia, angioedema, bronchospasm, and delayed awakening following anesthesia.

Effectiveness of Augmented Reality Mobile Simulator in Teaching Local Anesthesia of Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a mobile augmented reality simulator for local anesthesia training with dental students who are administering inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) for the first time. Participants in this prospective study conducted in 2016 were 41 fourth- and fifth-year students randomly divided into two groups: a control group with 19 students and an experimental group with 22 students. In addition to theoretical instruction and exercises, students in the experimental group used the mobile augmented reality simulator in a dental office 2h weekly for four weeks.
