Filter by:Laser treatment (LT) is the first-line treatment for Vascular Pathology. However even when LT is based on the selective photothermolysis it causes the first-degree burns. While being typically benign by affecting only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin, the burn site is remaining red, dry, and very painful. As Haemoblock contains nanoparticles of silver and is known for both bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects, it likely decreases the potential for infection postoperatively. Furthermore, after fibrin replaces the superficial structure "Hemoblock-albumin", the polyacrylate matrix is plasmolyzed which initiates the cascade of signals required for the tissue regeneration processes. Objective of the study was to examine the effect of the Regenerative Solution "Hemoblock" in lowering postoperative complications in children diagnosed with Vascular Pathology undergoing a laser surgery if delivered with transdermal patches.
A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Single Blinded, Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Bioseal as an Adjunct to Sutured Dural Repair
The most recent classification, adopted by International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA) in 1996, and updated in Melbourne in 2014, divides these lesions into two broad categories: vascular tumors and vascular malformations. Vascular malformations (VMs) are subdivided into high-flow VM and slow-flow VM. Slow-flow VMs consist of congenital anomalies which may involve abnormal capillaries vessels, venous vessels, lymphatic vessels or combination of several of them. They can be superficial (involving cutaneous and subcutaneous tissues) and/or may have visceral involvement. They can be limited or diffuse, and are sometimes components of genetic hypertrophic syndromes. The diagnosis of slow-flow VMs is performed on physical examination (biopsy may be required for confirmation), and is completed with imaging (ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)). Slow-flow VMs may be particularly voluminous; associated with underlying hypertrophy responsible for functional impairment; painful; associated with seepage or continuous cutaneous bleeding; complicated with visceral signs or hematologic disturbances (anemia, thrombopenia). Management requires dedicated multispecialty care. There are no guidelines for treatment, and management may include no intervention - but natural history of these VMs is progressive worsening -, compression by physical bandage, sclerotherapy, resection (when feasible),anti-inflammatory or anti-coagulation drugs. Case reports and series have provided evidence for supporting the need for a clinical trial of sirolimus by reporting successful treatment on several children with complicated vascular anomalies. The choice of sirolimus is rational. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase regulated by phosphoinositide-3-kinase involved in cell mobility, cell growth and angiogenesis. Sirolimus inhibits mTOR, which induces inhibition of angiogenesis, in particular lymphangiogenesis, which has been demonstrated in several models.
