A comparison of the results of these procedures is presented in this study. In addition to this, innovations in pancreatojejunal and biliodigestive anastomosis are also described.

The Effect of Trimetazidine on Diathermy-related Thermic Injury of the Rat Liver.

Background/aim: Owing to new oncotherapy modalities, the importance of an R0 resection decreased in the last decade; however, liver metastasis of colorectal cancer significantly decreases survival. Furthermore, to prevent cardiovascular disease, more and more patients are treated with anti-ischemic drugs, which may influence oncologic treatments in such patients. This study aimed to examine the effect of Trimetazidine on liver surface injury after spray diathermy.

Simple possession as a 'tool': Drug law enforcement practices among police officers in the context of depenalization in British Columbia, Canada.
