Published: September 2000

The authors focused their attention on the prevalence of late postoperative stenoses of anastomoses following resection of the colon. In 42 patients the anastomosis was implemented by means of a Valtrac ring--i.e. by compressive biofragmentable seamless technique. Within an interval of 6 months after surgery the majority of these patients were subjected to colonoscopic examination with direct visualization of the intestinal anastomosis. The authors did not record any late postoperative stenoses of the BAR anastomosis of the colon. Moreover on colonoscopic examination in the majority of patients the original intestinal anastomosis was only difficult to detect.

Background Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is an age-related condition involving abnormal ossification of soft tissues, including ligaments and joint capsules. Patients with DISH have an increased risk of fractures, especially in ankylosed spines, which increases susceptibility to spinal cord injury. This study aimed to explore the risk factors for neurological symptoms in patients with DISH-related fractures.

Department of Vascular Surgery, Swiss Aortic Center Bern, Inselspital, University Hospital of Bern, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland.

Purpose: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the outcomes of Anaconda fenestrated endograft for the treatment of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (cAAA).

Material And Methods: A systematic search of all the literature reported until May 2024 was performed according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. The pooled 30-day mortality rate, technical success rate, reintervention rate as well as bridging stent occlusion rate, and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using fixed or random effect methods.
