Survival after breast cancer has increased due to early diagnosis and advances in treatment methods. Musculoskeletal problems related to cancer and its treatment constitute a significant part of the daily practice of physiatrists and rehabilitation specialists involved in oncological rehabilitation. Lymphedema can occur at any stage of a patient's life …
The use of cricoid pressure to prevent gastric aspiration or regurgitation in case of "full stomach" situation or emergency is still controversial in the adult population. Moreover this maneuver is no more recommended in children by some European pediatric anesthesia societies, because of a lack of evidence of its protective …
The objective of the study is to evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Trans-Carotid Artery Occlusion Shunt System for Carotid Artery Revascularization during Endovascular Treatment
This is a single-center pilot study to determine if an adductor canal continuous nerve block is superior to single injection nerve block following total knee arthroplasty. Investigators will randomize participants to either continuous nerve block or single injection nerve block for the adductor canal preoperatively. They will assess differences in …
One-lung ventilation (OLV) is commonly used during thoracic surgery but may negatively affect lung mechanics and gas exchange. Different ventilation strategies are used during OLV, and their effects on respiratory parameters remain an important clinical concern. Flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) is a newer ventilation mode that allows precise control of inspiratory …
Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency in children, and laparoscopic appendectomy is its standard treatment. Although intraoperative adverse events (iAEs) are recognized as an important determinant of surgical safety and outcome, no validated tool exists for grading them in children. ClassIntra, an internationally validated five-level severity classification of …
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer has led to an increased rate of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) in these patients. As the demand for preoperative localization methods grows among surgeons performing BCS, traditional localization techniques have shown limitations. For non-palpable breast lesions, preoperative localization has commonly been achieved using ultrasound-guided skin …
Epilepsy affects between 0.5 and 0.7% of the European population. Despite the availability of numerous drug treatments, one third of patients still have seizures, which are associated with significant cognitive and social complications and excess mortality. In these patients, surgical treatment to remove the epileptogenic zone (EZ), the region of …
The prevalence of post-surgical lumbar neuropathic radiculopathy is approximately 30%. Poor response to the treatments recommended for neuropathic pain, namely antidepressants and/or gabapentinoids, requires the development of new techniques to prevent this chronic pain. Certain well-tolerated techniques, such as the administration of plasma enriched with platelets and fibrin (PRF), are …
This research project aims to study how obesity affects the heart and metabolism, and how these effects change after significant weight loss following bariatric surgery. In particular, we want to look at how blood vessels and fat tissue function in people with obesity, to detect early signs of vascular problems …
