  • Decompressive Craniectomy Following Severe Traumatic Brain Injury with an Initial Glasgow Coma Scale Score of 3 Or 4
    Case Report Clinics in Surgery Published: 03 Jul, 2019 Decompressive Craniectomy Following Severe Traumatic Brain Injury with an Initial Glasgow Coma Scale Score of 3 or 4 Afif AFIF* Department of Neurosurgery and Anatomy, Pierre Wertheimer Hospital, France Abstract Background: Decompressive craniectomy is a surgical management option for severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). However, few studies have followed patients with TBI who have a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 3 or 4 (out of 15). Decompressive craniectomy has been avoided in such patients owing to poor outcomes and poor functional recoveries in previous cases of treatment using this method. Clinical Presentation: Two patients are presented in our case series. The first suffered severe TBI following an aggression, with a GCS score of 3 and bilaterally dilated unreactive pupils. Brains CT scan showed right frontal fracture, bifrontal hematoma contusion, a fronto-temporo-parietal acute Subdural Hematoma (SDH) with a thickness of 14 mm on the right side, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, with 20 mm of midline shift to the left side, and diffuses brain edema. The second presented with severe TBI following an automobile accident, with a GCS score of 4 and iso- reactive pupils. A brain CT scan showed bilateral fronto-temporal fracture, diffuse brain hematoma contusion, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, right Extradural Hematoma (EDH) and bilateral fronto-temporo-parietal acute SDH that was more pronounced on the right side. Conclusion: Follow-up after the operations showed an Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (EGOS) score of 8 and a very good functional recovery for both patients. Our case series suggests that in patients with severe TBI and a GCS score of 3 or 4; decompressive craniectomy can be performed OPEN ACCESS with good long-term neurological outcomes.

Introduction. Complications following craniotomy are not uncommon and Sinking Skin Flap Syndrome (SSFS) constitutes a rare entity that may present after a large Decompressive Craniectomy. Although the entity is widely reported, the literature mostly consists of case reports. Authors present a case series of three patients with review of literature highlighting the various factors which can prove therapeutic and can help in avoidance of complications. Materials and Methods. (e study was conducted over a period of 3 years, from 2016 to 2019, and included 212 patients who underwent unilateral Decompressive Craniectomy (DC) for trauma in our institute. All 212 patients underwent a similar DC following a strict institutional protocol and the craniectomies were performed by the same surgical team. At total of 160 patients survived and elective cranioplasty was planned at a 3-month interval. Out of a total of 160 patients who survived, 38 developed hydrocephalus, 3 patients presented with hydrocephalus acutely and had to be shunted before cranioplasty and underwent ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunting on the opposite side of craniectomy.

  • Partial Nephrectomy for Renal Cancer: Part I
    REVIEW ARTICLE Partial nephrectomy for renal cancer: Part I BJUIBJU INTERNATIONAL Paul Russo Department of Surgery, Urology Service, and Weill Medical College, Cornell University, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, USA INTRODUCTION The Problem of Kidney Cancer Kidney Cancer Is The Third Most Common Genitourinary Tumour With 57 760 New Cases And 12 980 Deaths Expected In 2009 [1]. There Are Currently Two Distinct Groups Of Patients With Kidney Cancer. The First Consists Of The Symptomatic, Large, Locally Advanced Tumours Often Presenting With Regional Adenopathy, Adrenal Invasion, And Extension Into The Renal Vein Or Inferior Vena Cava. Despite Radical Nephrectomy (Rn) In Conjunction With Regional Lymphadenectomy And Adrenalectomy, Progression To Distant Metastasis And Death From Disease Occurs In ≈30% Of These Patients. For Patients Presenting With Isolated Metastatic Disease, Metastasectomy In Carefully Selected Patients Has Been Associated With Long-term Survival [2]. For Patients With Diffuse Metastatic Disease And An Acceptable Performance Status, Cytoreductive Nephrectomy Might Add Several Additional Months Of Survival, As Opposed To Cytokine Therapy Alone, And Prepare Patients For Integrated Treatment, Now In Neoadjuvant And Adjuvant Clinical Trials, With The New Multitargeted Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (Sunitinib, Sorafenib) And Mtor Inhibitors (Temsirolimus, Everolimus) [3,4]. The second groups of patients with kidney overall survival. The explanation for this cancer are those with small renal tumours observation is not clear and could indicate (median tumour size <4 cm, T1a), often that aggressive surgical treatment of small incidentally discovered in asymptomatic renal masses in patients not in imminent patients during danger did not counterbalance a population imaging for of patients with increasingly virulent larger nonspecific abdominal tumours.

  • Reversible Signal Abnormalities in the Hippocampus and Neocortex After Prolonged Seizures
    Reversible Signal Abnormalities in the Hippocampus and Neocortex after Prolonged Seizures Stephen Chan, Steven S. M. Chin, Krishnan Kartha, Douglas R. Nordli, Robert R. Goodman, Timothy A. Pedley, and Sadek K. Hilal PURPOSE: To investigate the phenomenon of reversible increased signal intensity of medial temporal lobe structures and cerebral neocortex seen on MR images of six patients with recent prolonged seizure activity. METHODS: After excluding patients with known causes of reversible signal abnormalities (such as hypertensive encephalopathy), we retrospectively reviewed the clinical findings and MR studies of six patients whose MR studies showed reversible signal abnor- malities. MR pulse sequences included T2-weighted spin-echo coronal views or conventional short-tau inversion-recovery coronal images of the temporal lobes. RESULTS: All six MR studies showed increased signal intensity within the medial temporal lobe, including the hippocampus in five studies. All follow-up MR examinations showed partial or complete resolution of the hyperin- tensity within the medial temporal lobe and the neocortex. In one patient, results of a brain biopsy revealed severe cerebral cortical gliosis. Temporal lobectomy performed 4 years later showed moderate cortical gliosis and nonspecific hippocampal cell loss and gliosis. CONCLUSION: Sig- nificant hyperintensity within the temporal lobe is demonstrable on MR images after prolonged seizure activity, suggestive of seizure-induced edema or gliosis. Damage to medial temporal lobe structures by prolonged seizure activity indicates a possible mechanism of epileptogenic disorders. Index terms: Brain, magnetic resonance; Brain, temporal lobe; Hippocampus; Seizures AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 17:1725–1731, October 1996 Prolonged seizure activity is associated with character of the acute neuronal loss in the hip- long-lasting neurologic damage and even death pocampus seen after an episode of status epi- in humans (1–3); prompt treatment is required lepticus is different from the neuronal loss and to forestall irreversible changes (4).

    Urology Scientific Session Monday, September 28, 2020 Moderators/Panelists: Drs. Sabine Zundel, Sameh Shehata, Holger Till, Yuri Kozlov, Philipp Szavay, Eduardo Perez (S26) PNEUMOVESICOSCOPIC CORRECTION OF PRIMARY VESICOURETERAL REFLUX (VUR) IN CHILDREN. - OUR INITIAL EXPERIENCE- A. M. Benaired, Pediatric, Surgeon; H Zahaf, Pediatric, Surgeon; Military Central Hospital Purpose: Vesicoureteral reflux is a common urological abnormality predisposing risk of childhood hypertension and chronic renal failure. It is called primitive when it is due to an abnormality of the vesicoureteral junction. Different treatment approaches have been proposed a long time. Two main trends can be identified, conservative and operative approach. The main objective of our prospective study is to demonstrate the feasibility of vesicoscopic crosstrigonal ureteral reimplantation under CO2 pneumovesicum in treatment on primary vesicoureteral reflux and analyze results of this approach. Methods: A total of 60 patients underwent transvesicoscopic ureteral reimplantation (33 boys, 27 girls) by the same surgeon from Mai 2011 to Mai 2015. All patients had primary vesicoureteral reflux, and surgery was performed because of breakthrough urinary tract infection despite antibiotic prophylaxis, persistent high grade of vesicoureteral reflux especially in association with significant renal scarring, mean age at operation was 47.47 month (5 month - 12 years). Of the 60 patients, 34 had bilateral reflux and 26 had unilateral reflux. The reflux grade in the total of 94 ureters was grade IV, V in 59.57%, grade III in 35.11% and grade II in 5.32% in association with contralateral high grade vesicoureteral reflux. Our surgical methods followed those reported by Valla et al. Results: The transvesicoscopic procedure was successfully completed in all patients without perioperative complication except one case of pneumoperitoneum that required exsufflation by open laparoscopy.

Deep endometriosis surgery of an associated 2011, 23:296–300 hydronephrosis is associated with a high incidence of ureteral lesions making preoperative stenting desirable in order to facilitate the eventual repair, while avoiding the more problematic insertion of a stent after a lesion is made. The available data confirm the excellent outcome of stenting obstructive lesions. When stenting proves difficult or in case of a ureteral leakage, laparoscopic aided stenting is strongly suggested, in order to avoid further damage while permitting simultaneous repair if necessary. Laparoscopic suturing of a laceration over a stent is clearly superior to stenting only.
