Filter by:The investigators aim to assess the efficacy of the Curaseal anal plug in patients with idiopathic uncomplicated fistulous tracts. Healing of the fistula tract will be assessed both clinically and radiologically with MR imaging.
This trial is aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DCB in treating AVF stenosis in chinese population.
Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for hemodialysis often fail to become usable due to failure to mature (FTM). The most common cause is narrowing of the artery or vein (stenosis). Another potential cause is the presence of collateral or side branch veins that steal blood flow from the main fistula channel. Some believe that occluding these veins might help maturation of those failing AVFs. To evaluate if this actually works, patients with FTM will be randomly assigned to side branch vein ligation (or not), and rates of AVF maturation of the two groups will be compared.
40000 patients are hemodialysis each year in France . In the case of chronic care, 78% of patients have an arteriovenous fistula. In order to perform the hemodialysis session, 2 techniques of puncture of the fistula are possible: - Bevel puncture upwards then flipping the needle - or puncture bevel down. At present, there is no consensus or study on the technique of puncture fistula which generates different professional practices.
This study is designed to assess the preventive effects of somatostatin on post-operation pancreatic fistula in intermediate risk patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Patients assigned into the treatment group will be continuous intravenous infusion with the somatostatin (Stilamin®) in addition to conventional treatments (including infection prevention, nutrition support and acid suppression therapy, etc.).The pancreatic fistula incidence will be monitored within 30 days after operation.
Interventional study that evaluate analgesia and side effects of Ultrasound guided Caudal block preoperatively in benign canal anal surgery
Perianal Crohn's disease (pCD) is the commonest form of fistulising Crohn's disease, with up to 38% of patients affected and with 30% of them experiencing recurring disease symptoms. Presence of fistula can lead to major morbidity due to cutaneous perianal abscess formation or drainage. To date, it is very difficult to quantify inflammation in patients with pCD due to the absence of reliable disease activity measurements. In addition to this, optimising therapies for pCD is quite challenging and may have a major impact on quality of life. Magnetic resonance imaging of pelvic is a standard examination for the anatomical evaluation of pCD which is significant in terms of surgical therapy and progress. The overall hypothesis is that newer MRI techniques such as magnetization transfer (MT), diffusion weighted image ( DWI) and dynamic contract enhancement (DCE) are better suited to measuring the inflammatory vs fibrotic burden in pCD. The aim of this project is to measure disease activity within pCD and luminal CD using MRI sequences before and after biological therapy
In this pilot study a new surgical treatment approach for perianal fistulae, called Fistulodesis, is performed. The study aims to assess effectiveness, safety and tolerability of the Fistulodesis procedure. The investigators are aiming to include 20 patients with Crohn's disease and 20 patients without underlying Crohn's disease. It is an open label study with an anticipated duration from January 2017 to January 2020.
The study is a retrospective review of the use of the Biodesign® Fistula Plug (C-FPS-[X]). A total of 73 patients will be enrolled who have had a fistula plug placed to treat anorectal fistulas and will therefore be eligible for statistical analysis.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the PHIL® liquid in endovascular treatment of dural arteriovenous fistula.
