Objective: To investigate the risk factors and the prevention management of anastomotic leak in patients with Crohn disease undergoing bowel resections.
Methods: Clinical data of 91 patients with Crohn disease undergoing intestinal resection from 1990 to 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the risk factors of anastomotic leak.
Background: Recent efforts suggest an etiologic role of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and the involvement of hepatic progenitor cell in ICC development, without definitive conclusions. This case-control study was undertaken to investigate risk factors for ICC, and clinicopathological features of HBV-associated ICC were analyzed.
Methods: The report comprised 98 patients with pathologically confirmed ICC and 196 healthy control subjects.
Aim: To highlight the intestinal perforation (IP), an uncommon and catastrophic complication after combined liver-kidney transplantation.
Methods: Combined liver-kidney transplantation (LKTx) with left kidney excision and a cyst fenestration procedure on the right kidney were performed on a case of 46-year-old female with congenital polycystic disease (CPCD).
Results: Two sites of IP were noted 40-50 cm proximal to ileocecal area during emergent laparotomy 10 d postoperatively.
