In total, between 2000 and 2016 in our University Hospital there were 276 elective distal pancreatectomies performed. In this retrospective cohort study, we included 258 of those distal pancreatectomy patients in the database in to our analysis. Pasireotide was administered preoperatively to all

This study is cross-sectional and is carrying out between 1995 and 2017 in two French tertiary referral centers (Montpellier, Toulouse) and EPIMAD registry which is currently the largest Inflammatory Bowel Disease cohort in world and cover 9.6% of French population (Nord, Pas-de-Calais, Somme, and

1. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK. APPROACH TO THE PROBLEM Background and justification Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of heart arrhythmia. Electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins in the left atrium with ablation is standard therapy in the invasive treatment of atrial fibrillation. One of

BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a dreaded major complication after colorectal surgery. The overall incidence of anastomotic dehiscence and subsequent leaks is 2 to 7 percent when performed by experienced surgeons. The lowest leak rates are found with ileocolic anastomoses (1 to 3 percent) and

Total joint replacement is considered one of the most successful surgical procedures in the field of orthopedics, alleviating pain and limitation of movement due to degenerative or traumatic joint damage. Despite this achievement, prosthetic joint infections is still considered a severe complication

Introduction The dehiscence of the esophagojejunal anastomosis is one of the most serious complications after a total gastrectomy not only in the short term but it has been shown to be an independent risk factor for survival. The rate of esophagojejunal anastomosis leakage after cancer gastrectomies

The investigators will verify whether a 4-week treatment with lactoferrin CRX is able to reduce SUDD-related symptoms, thus improving patient's quality of life. Symptoms will be assessed with the questionnaire by Tursi et al.

Uterine fibroids are the commonest benign gynecological tumors in pre-menopausal women affecting over 80% of African women by age of 50. Myomas are clinically apparent in approximately 12 to 25% of reproductive age women and noted coincidentally on pathological examination in approximately 80% of

1.0 Background The number of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) implanted each year has grown rapidly over the past two decades, largely due to expanding use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) and devices capable of delivering cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). CIEDs

1. Sample Calculation: Based on the literature, the occurrence rate of fever after Percutaneous Nephrolithotripsy (PCNL) was 21% -39.8%, urinary tract infection rate 38%, SIRS rate 11.2%, the incidence rate of urinary sepsis 0.3% - 4.7%,and the mortality rate with sepsis was 60% -80%. Expected

When treating atrial fibrillation and targeting various areas in the left atrium, electrophysiologists have the choice to perform ablation with RF energy or cryoenergy. Esophageal ulceration and in more rare cases, esophageal fistulae, are known complications of this ablation procedure. Though rare

Aim Endpoints The primary endpoints are outcome 10-30 years after surgery for anorectal malformations and to see if it is related to existing altered anatomy, anorectal function and intestinal passage. The secondary endpoints is to identify bowel function problems which can be treated by medicine or
