Der Erfolg einer Operation am offenen Herzen hangt - neben an- deren Faktoren - vor allem von der Qualitat des intraoperativen Myokardschutzes ab. Die Einfuhrung kardioplegischer Methoden in die Klinik hat das Risiko offener Herzoperationen entschei- dend gesenkt. Die Injektionskardioplegie und Infusionskardioplegie stellen heute die gebrauchlichsten kardioplegischen Verfahren dar. Sie wurden in zahlreichen tierexperimentellen Untersuchungen aus- giebig beforscht. Allerdings erfolgten derartige Studien bislang immer an gesunden Tierherzen. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es, diese Kardioplegieverfahren im Tierversuch am vorgeschadigten, hypertrophierten Myokard auf ihre Wirksamkeit zu uberprufen. Die tierexperimentellen Untersuchungen wurden von 1976- 1978 in der Abteilung fur experimentelle Chirurgie und im bio- chemischen Labor der Chirurgischen Univ.-Klinik Tubingen durch- gefuhrt. Fur die wissenschaftliche Unterstutzung und Beratung bei den experimentellen und insbesondere den biochemischen Unter- suchungen danke ich Herrn Professor Heller und seinen medizi- nisch-technischen Assistentinnen sehr herzlich. Herrn Professor Hoffmeister danke ich herzlich fur die Foerde- rung dieser Untersuchungen, seine wertvollen Anregungen und die kritische Durchsicht des Manuskriptes.

The first edition published in 1999, was described as a "longed for addition to the literature", and as a text that "cannot be compared with any other book on vascular surgery" (Lancet 2000; 355: 1918). At the time it was different; a book to help busy clinicians sift through surgical research and use it to make sensible decisions for their clinical practice. The challenge for this second edition is to produce something better still. The new edition is larger and more comprehensive, thanks to valuable suggestions from colleagues and reviewers. The text is as accessible as possible, with short chapters, recommendations for management, comprehensive referencing and full colour illustration. It belongs on the shelf, or in the briefcase of everyone who has to treat patients with vascular disease.

This atlas presents a collection of richly illustrated teaching cases. It covers the fundamentals of orthopedic oncology complemented with relevant aspects that are demonstrated using individual cases. In a specialty that deals with a relatively smaller number of cases compared to tumors of other systems, this atlas prepares readers for clinical practice by combining a problem-based learning (PBL) approach, which lies on the continuum between structured and guided learning, with theory and practical insights. The book is divided into sections, arranged according to anatomical regions and the reconstruction type. Each section focuses on a specific anatomical region, and each case presentation includes the basic clinical history, basic principles, preoperative, perioperative and radiographic images, a pitfall list, treatment strategy, technical pearls, outcomes and complications. For each region the authors discuss both the biological and non-biological reconstruction techniques. The book is designed to actively involve the reader, making it an invaluable tool for all orthopedic surgeons confronted with oncologic surgery. The book is intended for trainees in orthopedics, orthopedic oncology fellows as well as practicing consultants.

Untersuchungen iiber das Tonusproblem im besonderen der Hohl organe haben mich schon vor Jahren zum Begriff "Tonuskrankheit" gefiihrt. Seine Begriindung hat sich durch die Feststellung ergeben, daB es Krankheiten gibt, deren Wesen in einem pathologischen Ver halten des Tonussubstrates im Sarkoplasma gelegen ist. Es hat sich ferner gezeigt, daB in heterogenen Krankheiten in diesem Veranderungen vor sich gehen, die in entscheidender Weise in den Veriauf eingreifen. In zahlreichen Mitteilungen habe ich Experimentelles und Klinisches veroffentlicht, das mir geeignet schien, das Verstehen der Tonusveran. derungen, von welchen hier die Rede ist, zu unterstiitzen. Wiederholt hat man mir nahe gelegt, meine einschlagigen Arbeiten zusammenzu. fassen. In den letzten Jahren haben sich Momente ergeben, die mich bestimmen, dieser Anregung Folge zu Ieisten.

Amir Al-Dabbagh
R431 Discovery Miles 4 310 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Through fourteen years of work as a surgeon in Erbil, Iraq, Amir Al-Dabbagh built a sense of genuine trust and friendship with his patients, the society of Erbil, his colleagues, and students in the city, a feeling that continues to inspire him to return to the city, and record his experiences in this memoir. Amir Al-Dabbagh started his medical career in 1970, graduating from Mosul and working in Iraq for six years before a period practicing medicine and surgery in the UK. After being forced into leaving Iraq in 1993, Amir continued working in the UK at Trafford General Hospital and the Manchester Royal Infirmary. His career has been one of patient care and student training, as a consultant surgeon and dean of a medical college in Erbil through peace and war. This memoir is a collection of thoughts and experiences of the medical profession through times of war and inner turmoil, fleeing as a refugee and collected wisdom on undergraduate and postgraduate training as well as good practice in patient care and surgery. The author reflects on the importance of family and friends and a genuine love of Erbil and Iraq, a beautiful country overflowing with history and welcoming people. Ultimately, nothing would have forced him to leave Erbil but the direct threat on his life. Also included is an account of Dr Waleed Khalid's practice in Baghdad, as consultant cardiothoracic and vascular surgeon during the Iraq-Iran War and the First Gulf War, providing another interesting perspective on striving to care for one's patients as a surgeon in turbulent times. Dr Waleed's perseverance to build the first cardiothoracic and vascular unit in the north of Iraq was fraught with many obstacles, which he clearly highlights in his account.

Auch die Verhiitung von Herzkrankheiten wird dadurch auf eine ganz andere, sicherere Grundlage gestellt. Der Gesunde wird so erkennen, wodurch er sich vor Schaden bewahren kann.

Vein Health and Problems in Lockdown and Isolation (Paperback): Mark S. Whiteley Vein Health and Problems in Lockdown and Isolation (Paperback)

R275 Discovery Miles 2 750 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Many people have problems with their legs - from aching/tired legs and swollen ankles to varicose veins, from lumps appearing to skin discolouration and leg ulcers to name a few. Sometimes symptoms and signs are obviously due to veins - and other times people might be unaware of hidden varicose veins. However with 30-40% of the adult population having some venous dysfunction, venous disease is behind a lot of leg problems. Vein Health and Problems in Lockdown and Isolation has been written by Mark S Whiteley, an internationally recognised expert in varicose veins, leg ulcers and venous disease. In this book Mark goes through: Why a lockdown or isolation can worsen leg problems What symptoms and signs you might notice during a lockdown How the leg veins work What can go wrong with leg veins What problems varicose veins and hidden varicose veins can cause How to look after your vein health in a lockdown or during isolation What you should do if you notice certain symptoms or signs during a lockdown or isolation Vein health and problems in lockdown and isolation will help the reader understand venous disease better - and help the reader identify which symptoms and signs might be venous disease, and how urgently they need to be treated. Some sections such as how to look after the vein health in a lockdown are quite specific for these stressful times, whereas most of the book is relevant to anyone with venous problems, even if they don't know their symptoms and signs are due to hidden varicose veins!

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome - Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Venous Disorders: Pelvic congestion syndrome is one of the most misunderstood and least well-known medical conditions today. Because doctors most do not look for it, nor treat it: 1 in 3 (30%) of women with chronic pelvic pain get misdiagnosed and no treatment 1 in 6 (16.7%) of women and 1 in 30 (3%) of men with leg varicose veins get incomplete treatment and a higher risk of recurrence Women with intimate varicose veins of vagina, vulva, and labia do not get offered curative treatment However, research over the last 20 years has led us to know how we can investigate it and cure most people who have it. Moreover, research is showing how hemorrhoids (piles), varicocele in men and some erectile dysfunction are also due to pelvic venous disorders, and how new treatments are being developed for each. Pelvic Congestion Syndrome - Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Venous Disorders explains the concepts, the veins, how they go wrong to cause the problem - and how specialists at The Whiteley Clinic have spent 20 years developing the optimal investigations and treatments for this condition. This book is aimed at both the public and health care professionals who want to know more about this fascinating condition that affects millions of women and men in the world today.

It includes concise yet comprehensive overviews of the current status of the war casualty patient reconstruction domain. It will help guide patient management based on evidence from literature, clinical and surgical experience and ongoing research. It will also help stimulate investigative efforts in this dynamic and active field of war medicine.
