AbstractBackgroundThe Mangled Extremity Severity Score (MESS) is an objective
criterion for amputation prediction after lower extremity injury as well as for
amputation prediction after upper extremity injury. A MESS of ≥7 has been
utilized as a cutoff point for amputation prediction. In this study, we examined
the result of upper extremity vascular injurty (UEVI) management in terms of the

Can Biliary Carcinoembryonic Antigen Identify Colorectal Cancer Patients with Occult Hepatic Metastases?World Journal of Surgery - Tập 30 - Trang 1494-1499 - 2006

Twenty-five percent of radically treated colorectal cancer patients already have
occult hepatic metastases (OHM) that will later be observed during postoperative
follow-up. Instrumental examinations, i.e., intraoperative ultrasound or Doppler
perfusion index, have not improved diagnosis. As carcinoembyonic antigen (CEA)
levels are useful to reveal hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer,

Proctocolectomy and Ileostomy to Pouch Surgery for Ulcerative ColitisWorld Journal of Surgery - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 335-341 - 1998
L. Hultén
AbstractThe development of continence‐preserving and sphincter‐preserving
procedures for operation of ulcerative colitis has a long and interesting
history. Reported clinical results on the continent ileostomy (Kock pouch) and
the pelvic pouch procedure have often been enthusiastic; and when confronted
with the options patients have mostly been in no doubt in selecting “the best
operation.” Howeve... hiện toàn bộ
Lateral Pancreaticojejunostomy for Chronic PancreatitisWorld Journal of Surgery - - 2003
Stephen J. O’Neil, Gerard V. Aranha
Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive fibrosis of the pancreas that leads to
loss of endocrine and exocrine function. The most common symptom in this disease
is intractable pain. The etiology of pain in chronic pancreatitis is not clearly
understood. However, many of these patients have dilated ducts consisting of
saccular dilations and intervening constructions referred to as the “chain of
lakes”... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractBackgroundThe present study aimed to clarify the clinicopathologic
features of long‐term disease‐fee survival after resection of hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC).MethodsThis retrospective study identified 940 patients who
underwent curative resection of HCC between 1991 and 2000 at five university
hospitals. Seventy‐four patients with 10 years of recurrence‐free survival were
identified and ... hiện toàn bộ
The Current Evidence for Defining and Assessing Effectiveness of Surgical Educators: A Systematic ReviewWorld Journal of Surgery - Tập 44 - Trang 3214-3223 - 2020
Karen J. Dickinson, Barbara L. Bass, Kevin Y. Pei
Surgical educator effectiveness is valued but lacks an operational definition.
Clearly defining attributes consistent with effective surgical educators allows
for the development of professional activities directed to nurture these
qualities. Our aim was to identify the literature defining qualities of an
effective surgical educator, and tools to measure effectiveness. We searched

Surgical treatment of pancreatic cancerWorld Journal of Surgery - Tập 8 - Trang 889-894 - 1984
F. Kümmerle, K. Rückert
From 1964 to 1982, there were 782 patients treated for carcinoma of the
pancreas. In 174 patients pancreaticoduodenal resection was possible (22%).
Until 1977 we performed Whipple procedures, while from 1978 to 1982 total
pancreatectomy was preferred. Comparing the results of both methods, we did not
find any advantages of total pancreatectomy. Operative mortality did not
decrease, survival time d... hiện toàn bộ
