Blood and plasma viscosity has been controlled in a group of patients undergone to aorto-iliac reconstruction and in a group of control after thyroidectomy, cholecystectomy, and hernioplasty. The hemodilution induced by intraoperative infusion in the vascular reconstruction produced an important decrease of hematic and plasmatic viscosity which lasted for several days after the operation. Removing the hemodilution effect by a mathematical correction of the viscosity measured values to a standard haematocrit, it has demonstrated as surgical operation, apart from its entity, promoted an increase of the viscosity which persisted long in the postoperative course. For what it concerns the risk of postoperative thrombosis from one side protective effect of hemodilution is confirmed, from the other, in absence of the hemodilution, it would be useful to continue the antithrombotic prophylaxis longer the perioperative time as usual.

Study Design: Exploratory prospective observational case-control study.

Objectives: Aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiologic outcome, as well as peri-operative complications, of anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) and full-endoscopic/percutaneous trans-Kambin transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (pTLIF) with a large-footprint interbody cage.

Methods: Patients that underwent elective ALIF and pTLIF with a large-footprint interbody cage were prospectively evaluated.

Diaphragmatic stripping versus full-thickness diaphragmatic resection in cytoreductive surgery: a meta-analysis of the current evidence.

Langenbecks Arch Surg

January 2025

Department of Surgery (A), Medical Faculty and University Hospital Duesseldorf, Heinrich-Heine-University, Moorenstr. 5, 40225, Duesseldorf, Germany.

Purpose: The primary objective was to compare the intra- and postoperative outcomes of diaphragmatic stripping versus full-thickness diaphragmatic resection in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis who underwent cytoreductive surgery.

Methods: According to the PRSIMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was conducted for studies comparing postoperative pulmonary complications as well as intra- and postoperative outcomes of diaphragmatic stripping versus full-thickness diaphragmatic resection in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis necessitating cytoreductive surgery. Data from eligible studies were extracted, qualitatively assessed, and included in a meta-analysis.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) carries significant mortality and disability rates, with rebleeding posing a grave risk, particularly in anterior communicating artery (AcoA) aneurysms. This retrospective study aims to analyze preoperative and intraoperative variables of patients with ruptured AcoA aneurysms, evaluating the association of these variables with patient outcomes using machine learning techniques, proposing a prognostic score. : A retrospective study was conducted on 50 patients who underwent microsurgical clipping for a ruptured AcoA aneurysm at San Giovanni Bosco Hospital, Turin, Italy.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in both countries with high and low levels of socio-academic development. Routine, regular screening tests being introduced in an increasing number of countries make it possible to detect breast cancer at an early stage of development, as a result of which the trend in the incidence of metastatic breast cancer has been decreasing in recent years. The latest guidelines for the treatment of this tumor do not recommend axillary dissection, which limits the need for rapid assessment of the nodes during surgery.
