Avatar f tn s and I am now going to save a **** load of money to have these clips removed ... whatever happened with patients been kept informed before an operation is performed .. I was in no way informed that they may leave clips in my body in the event of bleeding .. I have not been able to wear ear rings in my ears due to my sensitivity to metals of all types ... If I had in any way know that they could end up laving clips in me I would have not had this operation ..
Avatar m tn My father had TURP operation one and half month back. After 4 days of operation leaking problem occurred. He was saying that he don't have any kind of sense while urine comes out.After that we consulted the same doctor, he was saying that you have to wait for another 6 months for control. I am helpless. Later we have moved another doctor there he said, some nerve(something i don't know which controls the urine) has damaged at the time of operation.
Avatar f tn Hi, Surgical interventions are needed to save the life of patients or to improve their chances of meaningful recovery. The type of surgery depends upon the specific cause of brain bleeding. The goal of surgery for subarachnoid bleeding, for example, is to suppress the chances of a second bleed from any identified aneurysm, which would almost always be fatal.
Avatar n tn I cannot say whether your mother is cleared from a cardiac standpoint for an operation because I do not take care of adult patients; this will be up to her primary care physician as well as the anesthesiologist and the surgeon. I can say, though, that good cardiac surgical centers frequently perform cardiac surgery in patients much older than 60. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with India to be able to tell you the location of a good cardiac surgical center in Hyderabad.
Avatar n tn Proximal type is the most common type of biceps tendon injury. It is most common in patients over 60 years of age, and often causes minimal symptoms. The distal biceps tendon is injured around the elbow joint. This is usually an injury that occurs with heavy lifting or sports in middle-aged men. Most patients with a distal biceps rupture will have surgery to repair the torn tendon. I think in your case it is the distal biceps rupture.

If you have the valve replaced now, you are stuck with the artificial valves and surgical techniques that are available now. The technology is getting better all the time. You probably have been advised that you need to be monitored by a cardiologist from now on. Keep your appointments, so you will know when it is truly time.
4656347 tn?1357634219 Doctors did the best of their effort but please consider my opinion. For the second operation, why not only did minor operation by sucking the fluid parts of the tumour using needle. Just for sharing... appreciate your comment. I attached MRI image before operation.

Avatar f tn Are holes common after a vitrectomy and are they affected by your age when the operation is performed? I am only 57 years old and the man he spoke of getting a hole after this operation was 70 years old.
Avatar m tn simple, subcapsular, and inguinal which can be done with local or general anesthesia. It is best that you discuss the procedure being done on you with your doctor. Standard blood and urine tests are also requested before the procedure. Most patients can go to work the following day. Some pain and swelling is also normal and can be managed with prescription medication. Take care and best regards.
Avatar f tn Patients with concurrent immunosupressive co-morbidities (diabetes, cancer, chronic steroid therapy) are at higher risk for these types of complications. With your husband having abscess formation, bacteremia, and now what sounds like a sternal wound infection, I would have an infectious disease specialist involved who might recommend a long-course of antibiotics. Your previous surgeon should also be involved given there could be potential surgical needs.
Avatar f tn would they not know the extent of the cancer from initial tests that were done, or at least from the time of the operation itself? We are very concerned for him and would be grate for your opinion.
Avatar n tn The issues down the road relate to the potential for infection in the bile duct which patients must be aware of. Fever and right upper quadrant pain should be treated early with antibiotics to abort any infection in the duct. By and large though, patients do very well.

233488 tn?1310693103 I don't know if any of the answers have been deleted or not. I use "=" to indicate I have read the discussion to that point and don't have additional comments. I believe that for 99% of the population of people with floaters (and I'm one of them) that the risks of surgical remove far outweigh the benefits.
Avatar f tn Hey there, kiddo. I can certainly understand your anxiety. Your doctor has done the right thing in referring you to a gyn/oncologist. This the person who has the most training and experience in dealing with situations such as yours. A gynecologist's specialty is women's basic issues such as child birth. A gyn/oncologist deals with all types of gynecological reproductive system issues. They deal with cancer, and all sorts of abnormalities.

It was thought that since MS is such a heterogeneous disease, mixing up different types in one clinical trial would lead to inaccurate results. Given the lack of biomarkers for MS (e.g.
Avatar f tn As for your question regarding surgical candidate selection theres 3 primary types of patients that are refferred for surgery instead of catheterization/stenting. 1. Patients with 3 vessel disease (most common). These are patients whos disease effects not just 1 single artery but rather all arteries in their heart. For these patients they run into a problem..
Avatar m tn Bow legs or genu varum can be corrected in adults by surgical remodeling. The exact type of surgical technique would depend on the severity and the exact location of the defect. Temporarily orthotic devices may be used to provide symptomatic relief, though a permanent cure may require a surgery in adults. It would be best to consult an orthopedician for a detailed review and appropriate management.
Avatar m tn The adverse effects experienced are similar to those with use of adenosine. While adverse effects are less frequent with dipyridamole (47% of patients), they tend to be more serious than those associated with adenosine. The most common adverse effects of dipyridamole are chest pain (19%), headache (12%), and hypotension (4.6%). In addition, 12% of patients require aminophylline for reversal of adverse effects.

Avatar m tn Gastric bypass procedures (GBP) are any of a group of similar operations that first divides the stomach into a small upper pouch and a much larger lower "remaining" pouch and then re-arranges the small intestine to connect to both. Surgeons have developed several different ways to reconnect the intestine, thus leading to several different GBP names.
Avatar f tn It depends how bad its decayed, if it's salvagable, than they'll shave it down, probably root canal it if it's really bad and crown it. Dentists do use the gas, but usually they don't use it for these types of procedures, it's usually for surgical types like when I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled, i was put out. Talk to your dentist and see what options there are!
Avatar m tn I live in Delaware. I had a Sphincter of Oddi operation last month. The doctor made a 12 mm cut. I am still having some pressure in the upper right abominal region and want all the pain to go away. Can your recommend another medical procedure that will completely stop this upper right abdominal pain? Will any other medical procedure get rid of this stupid disease? They also ballooned the biliary tubes.
