Introducing anatomically correct CT-guided laparoscopic right colectomy with D3 anterior posterior extended mesenterectomy: Initial experience and technical pitfalls
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2018-10-10)Background: Laparoscopic D3 anterior posterior extended mesenterectomy (D3APEM) in right colectomy has received increased attention. The aim of this study is to prove feasibility, systemize technical accomplishment, and ... -
Balloon eustachian tuboplasty: Systematic review of long-term outcomes and proposed indications
(european academy of otology and neurotology, 2018-04)Balloon Eustachian tuboplasty (BET) aims to improve the function of the Eustachian tube (ET). The objective of this study was to review the longterm outcome of BET and present the process and results of outlining indications ... -
Respiratory pump maintains cardiac stroke volume during hypovolemia in young, healthy volunteers
(American Physiological Society, 2018-05-24)Abstract Spontaneous breathing has beneficial effects on the circulation, since negative intrathoracic pressure enhances venous return and increases cardiac stroke volume. We quantified the contribution of the respiratory ... -
