Objective: Isolated aneurysms of the iliac artery are relatively rare (7% of all intra-abdominal aneurysms), but also pose a great therapeutic challenge in combination with aortic aneurysms. As a rule, iliac aneurysms with a size of > 3 cm are treated independently of the abdominal aortic aneurysm, in the interventional setting. In case of contraindications due to anatomical findings and patient-specific contraindications, such patients have to undergo a complex revascularization operation.Patientsand Methodology: For this study, between 2007 and 2017, 28 patients with complicated BAA with irrigation of the iliac arteries or with isolated iliac aneurysms in contraindications to interventional therapy underwent surgery. All patients underwent multi-d..... ReadMore

Fournier’s gangrene refers to a rare perineal infection with fulminant evolution towards multiorgan failure if no surgical treatment is quickly instaured. It mainly affects immunocompromised patients. Very few cases of Fournier’s gangrene circumscribed to the penis in young healthy patients were published to date. We treated a rare case of a penile Fournier’s gangrene in a young healthy man...... ReadMore

The aim of this study was to determine to what extent, healthcare practitioners in ICU worry about Workplace bullying (WPB) and whether it affects the quality of care and patient safety from their perception. The behaviors of individuals as well as some elements of their personality emerge the phenomenon and contribute to it becoming more intense. Interventions, therefore, aim to change perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors, i.e. the way in which individuals perceive and approach their work. They should also aim to educate individuals so that they respect the personality and accept the diversity of their colleagues, resist manipulation, respect themselves and dare to do self-criticism. For this reason, it should investigate the reasons that cause it in a workplace and review those characteris..... ReadMore

Introduction: Total occlusion with limited vascular reconstruction options in critical limb ischemia (CLI) can be a challenge for vascular surgeon. To secure in-flow and out-flow is most important to maintain patency in CLI. We defined the end stage vascular disease (ESVD) as conditions including occlusion of more than three lower extremity vessels (common femoral artery, superficial femoral artery, and tibioperoneal artery) with CLI, failures of previous multilevel intervention or long bypass, and no available autogenous vein for long bypass. Our purpose is to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of hybrid operation, which is open popliteal approach of tibioperoneal angioplasty and femoro-popliteal bypass. Materials and methods: Between November 2013 and August 2014, 8 cases of ESVD were treated with open popliteal tr..... ReadMore

Background: Early-onset scoliosis (EOS) is defined as a spinal deformity which occurs clinically before the age of 5 years. It can be divided into idiopathic, neuromuscular/syndromic, and congenital etiologies. Many patients may have congenital spinal malformations. Others have severe scoliosis, rapidly evolving , which occurs early as a phenotypic feature of rare diseases with major comorbidities or serious health problems. Treatment of non-idiopatic spine deformities in young children is very demanding. Rare syndromes are various clinical conditions, heterogeneous in terms of clinics but associated with spinal deformities in a large percentage of cases. Scoliosis is the most common early onset deformity, sometimes present at birth and often rapidly evolving.Methods: The literature on the treatment o..... ReadMore

Health care workers (HCWs) represent one of the largest groups at risk for contracting hepatitis B virus (HBV) worldwide. This is due to the accidental occupational exposure to potentially infectious blood and other body fluids in the workplace. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the rate of exposure to HBV infection and to identify potential occupational and non-occupational risk factors among doctors and nurses residing in tertiary hospitals in Sana’a city. This study included 169 physicians and nurses of whom 121 were physicians and 48 were nurses. Blood samples were collected from each one, then tested for serological markers of HBV infections. Also, data was collected in a pre-designed questionnaire including; demographic data, the potential occupational and non-o..... ReadMore

Preparing a hospital for a disaster is infinitely greater complex. Hospitals in most expansive populace centers are working at or close to full capacity. In numerous cities, healing centers and injury centers have issues, managing with a multiple-car thruway crash, much less the volume of patients likely to result from a large-scale accident. Amid crises, clinics can do a number of things to free up capacity and expand their assets. Studies demonstrate that the numbers of accessible beds, ventilators, confinement rooms, and pharmaceuticals may be efficient to care for casualties of a large-scale catastrophe. On the other hand, there are genuine physical impediments on this extension of their capabilities. The purpose of this research turned into to evaluate the information, hazard perception and mindset of the authorities, professionals, ..... ReadMore
