In Egypt, bladder cancer has been the most common cancer during the past 50 years. In 2002, Egypt's world-standardized bladder cancer incidence was 37/ 100,000, representing approximately 30,000 new cases each year. About 25% of new diagnoses are muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), which carry a worse prognosis compared to non-muscle invasive disease. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy (RC) with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy is considered the standard of care for treatment of MIBC by multiple international guidelines. However, this is associated with a significant impact on quality of life. The effect of our proposed Tetra-modal treatment protocol for muscle invasive Urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder on muscle invasive bladder cancer recurrence free survival, cancer specific survival, and overall survival? Koga developed a selective bladder-sparing protocol with a tetra modal therapy comprising maximal transurethral resection of bladder tumor, induction chemoradiation (CRT), and consolidative partial cystectomy (PC) with pelvic lymph node dissection, allowing the confirmation of CRT response pathologically. In the preliminary analysis of the initial cases enrolled in their protocol, none of the patients who completed the protocol with consolidative PC experienced MIBC recurrence, suggesting that consolidative PC may improve local cancer control in the preserved bladder by surgically eliminating possible cancer remnants after CRT. Our proposed Tetra-modal treatment protocol for MIBC is supposed to eliminate the surgical difficulties of performing PC in a radiated field and hence decrease the post operative complications of PC.
Alopecia areata (AA) is a common autoimmune disease that targets hair follicles with a prevalence of approximately 0.1% and a lifetime incidence of approximately 1.7%. AA is the third most prevalent nonscarring hair loss disease. Pentoxifylline (PTX) is a non-selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterases, which moderates the intracellular levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate by decreasing their hydrolysis and augmenting cyclic nucleotide-dependent signal transduction which leads to a wide spectrum of effects on the inflammation. PTX has anti inflammatory effects by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory cytokines (eg, IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8).Intralesional therapy has a number of advantages over topical therapy, including a faster and longer duration of action, penetration that is deeper than topical therapy, removal of the need for long-term topical medication, and improved patient compliance.The effect of microneedling for treatment of AA is supposed to stimulate the dermal papilla and stem cells by mechanical trauma and increasing the blood supply to the hair follicles.
Postoperative rehabilitation for tibial plateau fracture generally involves prolonged non-weight bearing time while other protocols use partial weight-bearing and bracing before full weight-bearing is recommended at 9 to 12 weeks following surgical fixation. No study to date has investigated the effect of standardized pragmatic exercise protocol added to immediate weight bearing after tibial plateau fractures surgical fixation on patient's functional outcomes, knee ROM, pain, radiographic boney alignment, gait, and return to work.
Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) presenting for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) represent a high-risk group among the cardiac surgical population. Anesthetic management of these patients is challenging due to increased risk of perioperative hypotension and subsequently increased risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Post induction hypotension is a modifiable risk that can be largely prevented by adjusting the technique for anesthesia induction. There is no consensus on the use of certain anesthetic induction techniques for patients CAD and left ventricular dysfunction. Anesthesia induction techniques for cardiovascular surgery are usually based on considerations such as hemodynamic stability, effects on myocardial oxygen supply, and demand and minimizing intubation stress response.To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous data comparing the efficacy of adding lidocaine versus fentanyl to the induction of anesthesia with ketamine in patients with poor ventricular function.
This study aims to: 1. Assess the incidence of hemostasis failure after manual compression of trans-femoral arterial sheath post percutaneous coronary intervention. 2. Assess the predictors of time to hemostasis achieved by manual compression for trans-femoral arterial sheath post percutaneous coronary intervention. 3. Assess the association between time to hemostasis and the incidence of vascular access complications after manual compression for trans-femoral arterial sheath removal post percutaneous coronary intervention. 4. Assess the association between failed hemostasis and the incidence of vascular access complications after manual compression for trans-femoral arterial sheath removal post percutaneous coronary intervention.
The most prevalent long term consequence of cataract surgery in both phacoemulsification and extracapsular cataract excision is posterior capsular opacification (PCO) PCO occurred in 11.8 percent of patients one year after surgery, 20.7 percent in three years, and 28.4 percent in five years . It causes lower visual acuity, decreased contrast sensitivity, stereoscopic vision, increases glare and monocular diplopia. The pathogenesis of PCO is dependent on the growth of lens epithelial cell remnants in the intracapsular region. Continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis, good hydro dissection, efficient removal of cortical and lenticular epithelial cells, in-the-bag IOL implantation, and the use of single-piece acrylic sharp edges IOLs are all factors in PCO avoidance. Intraoperatively, anti-metabolites such as 5-fluorouracil and mitomycin C may also be utilized. Fortunately, the overall prevalence of PCO and the using of neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser posterior Capsulotomy rates have dropped from 50% to fewer than 10% now The standard therapy for PCO is now Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy, which has a success rate of more than 95%. The neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser, with a wavelength of 1064 nm, is a solid-state laser that may destroy ocular tissues by achieving optical breakdown with a brief, high-power pulse .Ionization or plasma production occurs in the ocular tissue as a result of optical breakdown. This plasma production subsequently generates acoustic and shock waves, which destroy tissue. Because of its cost-effectiveness, speed, and lack of invasiveness, it is the chosen treatment option in PCO. However laser capsulotomy is not free of complications including transient intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation, hyphema, uveitis, cystoid macular edema, and retinal detachments that occur most frequently in the first few months . Apart from the afore mentioned biological complications, mechanical effects of laser capsulotomy such as pitting of IOL, dislocation of IOL into the vitreous, and shift in the position of IOL have also be reported Displacement of the IOL following laser capsulotomy, which may be impacted by the capsulotomy size , might hypothetically modify the effective power of the IOL as well as the patients' refractive state may be altered . However, with the exception of one research that demonstrated a hyperopic shift after Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy , most prior investigations failed to show a significant change in refraction before and after Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy . According to earlier study , the size and form of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy, the energy utilized in Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy, and the designs of IOL did not alter the post-laser refractive state. It is still unknown if the time of laser capsulotomy affects the refractive and visual prognosis of patients after Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. Because the IOL would continue to rotate for at least 6 months following cataract surgery, Any considerable change in IOL position might result in a change in the patient's refractive state, necessitating corrective lens prescriptions
