Background: This study aims to determine the ratio of delayed graft function in renal transplant recipients from living donors and the predictive value of hemodialysis time before transplant for delayed graft function.
Methods: We conducted a study on 116 adult patients who were diagnosed with end-stage kidney disease and were treated with hemodialysis and transplanted kidneys from living donors for 2 years (from June 2018 to June 2020). Delayed graft function event was collected for each patient.
Background: Perioperative myocardial infarction is a rare but highly fatal complication, which often occurs in patients with poor preoperative cardiac conditions undergoing high-risk surgery. We report a case of acute myocardial infarction in a patient without cardiac risk factors during emergence from general anesthesia for removal of spinal screws.
Case Presentation: A 37-year-old, 60 kg, and 160 cm man, who had no history of cardiovascular diseases, underwent removal of loosen spinal plug screws at L4-L5.
