Acute mesenteric ischemia is an emergency condition that requires immediate therapy. Despite advances in the fields of surgery and intensive therapy, the mortality of this condition remains high. This is due to the broad ...

INTRODUCTION: Operation on the infrarenal aorta and large arteries of the lower extremities may cause rhabdomyolysis of the skeletal muscle, which in turn may induce remote kidney injury. NIM-811 (N-metyl-4-isoleucine-cy ...

273 patients underwent elective surgical treatment for benign liver lesions at the 1st Surgical Department of Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary between 2004 and 2014. Laparoscopic (LAP) interventions were performed ...

PURPOSE: Rats are the most commonly used animal model for studies of acute lower limb ischemia-reperfusion. The ischemia induced by arterial clamping may cause milder damage than the application of a tourniquet if the ...

Selective portal vein ligation (PVL) allows the two-stage surgical resection of primarily unresectable liver tumours by generating the atrophy and hypertrophy of portally ligated (LL) and non-ligated lobes (NLL), respectively. ...

Surgical removal of complicated liver tumors may be realized in two stages via selective portal vein ligation, inducing the atrophy of portally ligated lobes and the compensatory hypertrophy of nonligated liver lobes. ...

Background Ischemic-reperfusion (IR) injury still represents a major concern in clinical transplantation, especially in the era of extreme organ shortage and extended criteria donor organs. In the present study we aimed ...

BACKGROUND: The ability of remote ischemic perconditioning (RIPER) to protect the liver from ischemic-reperfusion (IR) injury has been reported before; however, the mechanism behind the positive effects of RIPER remains ...
