Filter by:The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of sclerotherapy (injection of tetracycline or injection of Polidocanol - 95% hydroxypolyethoxydodecane and 5% ethanol -) in treatment of non-neoplastic ovarian cysts by, percutaneous trans-abdominal approach or trans-vaginal approach.
The Baker cyst (BC), also known as the popliteal cyst or parameniscal cyst, is a fluid-filled sac that commonly develops in the posterior aspect of the knee, between the semimembranosus and medial head of the gastrocnemius. It is a common complication of knee osteoarthritis, and can also be associated with other conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and meniscal tears. BCs are typically asymptomatic, but can cause pain, stiffness, and swelling in the back of the knee. In severe cases, they can rupture, leading to inflammation and pain in the calf. Physiotherapy is a common treatment for BCs, and has been shown to be effective in reducing size and symptoms. Intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) is a type of physiotherapy that involves applying suction to the affected area. IVT is thought to work by increasing blood flow and lymphatic drainage, which can help to reduce inflammation and swelling. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of IVT in the treatment of BCs. A total of 65 patients with knee osteoarthritis and BCs will be recruited and randomized to either a control group or an IVT group. The control group will receive standard physiotherapy treatment, while the IVT group will receive IVT in addition to standard physiotherapy treatment. All patients will be assessed at baseline and after 10 days of treatment using a variety of clinical and functional measures, including the echo volume of the BC. The results of the study will be used to determine whether IVT is an effective treatment for BCs. This study is designed to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on the treatment of BCs. The results of the study will be of interest to clinicians, researchers, and patients.
Background: Nasolabial cysts are rare benign epithelial nonodontogenic soft tissue cysts arising in the nasal alar region. Sublabial excision or transnasal endoscopic marsupialization is the standard treatment. Patients and methods: Between 2019 and 2022, a descriptive retrospective study, including 20 patients who presented with Nasolabial cysts, was conducted.
Intraorbital epidermoid and dermoid cyst (DC) has been reported in the literature rarely. The current study evaluates clinicopathologic, radiologic, and management of intraorbital DC cases over ten years.
Cystic enucleation is one of the most common conservative surgeries in gynecology; it is commonly performed by a minimally invasive approach such as laparoscopy. A high percentage of these surgeries (6-88 % of cases) are complicated by the cystic rupture with intra-abdominal spillage of its contents (spillage). This occurrence affects the surgical and prognostic outcome by lengthening the time of surgery, increasing the risk of postoperative infection or granulomatous peritonitis, of possible second manifestation of the pathology (example: endometriosis), and in the case of neoformation of a carcinomatous nature by leading to an increase in the stage of disease, exposing patients to a prognostic disadvantage and the need for adjuvant treatments also avoidable. In addition, the previous spillage may be associated with the adherent syndrome with repercussions on patients' morbidity and fertility. For these reasons, it is crucial to optimize the selection of patients who are candidates for cystic enucleation. The present study aims to evaluate a series of ultrasound, medical history, and surgical-preoperative parameters to develop a predictive score for the risk of spillage during laparoscopic surgery. Prospective Observational Study. The study aims to enroll 156 patients.
The pathogenesis of sacral Tarlov cysts (TCs) is still unclear. In this study, histological techniques were used to clarify the anatomical membranous layers of TCs and further explore the pathogenesis of them.Although many approaches have been used to treat TCs, there is no consensus on the optimal treatment. Microsurgery is now increasingly recommended as the preferred treatment with the best long-term outcomes.However, some authors have proposed the opposite view because current microsurgical techniques fail to completely close the ostium between the cyst and subarachnoid space.Consequently, could lead to leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, pseudomeningocele , or a high frequency of cysts recurrence, which are the main reasons for surgical failure and also the biggest scruple when microsurgery is chosen. Herein, we present a new method of cyst separation and ostium closure, and evaluate its clinical reliability and effectiveness for surgical treatment of Tarlov cysts through the prospective study.
The aim of our study is to compare the effect of laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy on ovarian reserve in terms of different cyst types.
The management of liver hydatid cysts (LHC) is controversial. Surgery remains the basic treatment, and can be divided into radical and conservative approaches. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcome of radical and conservative surgery (CS) in the treatment of LHC and to evaluate the efficiency and safety of radical surgery (RS).
ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasonography (USG)-guided Baker's cyst (BC) aspiration in the treatment of BC. Design: A total of 40 patients presented to our polyclinic with the complaints of swelling at the back of the knee. The 40 patients were randomly divided into two groups: (I) aspiration group (n=20) and (II) control group (n=20). In the aspiration group, BC content was aspirated percutaneously under USG guidance, whereas no aspiration was performed in the control group. Additionally, the participants in both groups were trained on how to perform exercises and were also recommended to practice cold treatment for 15 min both in the morning and evening for 2 weeks. All the patients were followed up with USG at the first and third months, VAS, WOMAC, NHP , Lysholm and Cincinnati. The success of the treatment was demonstrated by the decrease in the width, length and area of the BCs and Lysholm, Cincinnati ,VAS, WOMAC and NHP scores.
The study evaluates the role of contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasound (CH-EUS) for the differentiation of the pancreatic cysts and their malignant potential.
