Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ENTERING ON A CREATIVE AND ENTERPRISING PROJECT, DRS. DIZEREGA and Rodgers have taken an innovative look at the peritoneum. They have provided an interesting, informative, and stimulating text about an organ that is rarely considered independently-usually being thought of only as a part of other organs or organ systems. The peritoneum is an active membrane that serves as both a secretory organ and a structure that modulates diffusion and osmosis. Both of these important functions are described in great detail. The text is divided in classic fashion. The authors first examine the peritoneal anatomy from both macro and cellular viewpoints, during which exploration it becomes clear that what appears simply to be a lacy covering over abdominal organs actually is a complex structure. Fur thermore, during the discussion on its embryologic development the au thors make comprehensible the complexity confronting the student of the peritoneum. The authors then proceed to the practicalities associated with this im portant organ. To surgeons, for example, the key to the peritoneum is understanding the organ's repair mechanism, as it is adhesions formed on the peritoneal surfaces that interfere with the surgeon's hope of success.

Download or read book Imaging Acute Abdomen in Children written by Fred E. Avni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to equip readers with a sound understanding of the imaging strategies that are appropriate in children with acute abdominal conditions. The starting points are the clinical conditions, which are outlined in an introduction presented by pediatrician experts in emergency medicine, and the age groups, with differentiation of children and infants from neonates. The various conditions and their frequency are documented in detail, with clear description and illustration of the presentations on different imaging modalities. A large majority of the included images are from recent examinations and have been obtained using the most up-to-date techniques. The therapeutic impact of imaging is also explained, and the coverage is completed with helpful decision trees and tables of differential diagnosis. At the end of each chapter a concise resume underlines the main points. Imaging Acute Abdomen in Children will be of value for pediatric and general radiologists, radiologists in training, pediatricians, pediatric surgeons, emergency pediatricians, and others with an interest in the subject.

Download or read book Nolph and Gokal's Textbook of Peritoneal Dialysis written by Ramesh Khanna and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-05-28 with total page 927 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nolph and Gokal's Text Book of Peritoneal Dialysis, Third Edition, covers advances made in the field for the past 30 years. During the past two decades, the time during which this therapy has been increasingly utilized, this text has continued to be recognized as the major source of the discipline's base knowledge. The evolution of this text to its newest edition parallels the growth of peritoneal dialysis from Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis in the eighties to the current therapy that encompasses manual and automated therapies with full emphasis on adequacy of dialysis dose. Peritoneal dialysis represents an intracorporeal technique for blood purification. This unique dialysis system represents one of many human attempts to manipulate nature for sustenance of life. The past few years of advances have focused on further improvement of the technique. Areas that have fueled the interest of researchers include: (1) Physiology of high transporters (and the role of genetics and inflammation); (2) Continued debate over the most appropriate adequacy indices (small solute clearances, large solute clearances, clinical assessment etc.); (3) Understanding, preventing and treating the MIA syndrome in PD patients ( including the roles of leptin, and adiponectin); (4) Pathogenesis and newer management strategies of vascular calcification; (5) Continued improvements in infectious complications including peritonitis; (6) Further improvements in catheter technology; (7) Automated techniques; (8) Explaining and correcting PD underutilization; (9) Rationale and applications of newer dialysis solutions; (10) New understanding and approaches to management of osteodystrophy; (11) Refinements in anemia management including new insights in iron metabolism in PD patients; (12) Further definition of indications for PD; (13) The ideal time to initiate dialysis. Newer insight into host defense mechanisms have also made the past decade of advances in the field more meaningful for clinicians. This text also covers the knowledge gained from animal models of peritoneal dialysis. Nolph and Gokal's Textbook of Peritoneal Dialysis, Third Edition is a compilation of the latest knowledge in the field. It cites and describes in great detail, the new discoveries and the evolution of understanding the subject of these discoveries.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Sugarbaker and his colleagues have persevered in the study and treat ment of peritoneal carcinomatosis. The peritoneal cavity has many unique and incompletely appreciated properties. These properties, coupled with the biologic behavior of many cancers, results in the seeding and growth of these cancers on the peritoneum. Many of these cancers remain localized to the peritoneum only, never metastasizing to other sites. One possible reason for this may be the obstruction of the afferent lymphatics on the undersurface of the diaphragm. The mucopolysaccharides produced by many of these neoplasma are probably viscous enough to obstruct these lymphatics, leading to the syndrome of pseudomyxoma peritonei. Many of the neoplasms taking residence on the peritoneum have extremely long cell-cycle times and are resistant to radiotherapy and many chemotherapeutic agents. How ever, much can be done for these patients - resection of primary cancers, omentectomies to reduce ascites formation, management of recurrent ascites, management of intestinal obstruction, nutritional care, and, hopefully, intraperitoneal chemotherapy. We have reviewed many of these problems in the past [1-7]. Dr. Sugarbaker and his colleagues have organized the current state of knowledge and technology for continuing use. The book provides a basis for thoughtful, prospective research planning. John S. Spratt, M. D. , F. A. C. S.

Download or read book Exploring Drug Delivery to the Peritoneum written by Ranjita Shegokar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Peritoneal cavity (PC) is the key metastatic site for intra-abdominal malignancies (e.g., GI tract and rectal cancer). PC sites can be used to target several other diseases where lymphatic drug delivery is desired without dumping large amounts of the drug. Till recently, it was thought that treatment with curative intent was impossible but that was challenged by the introduction of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and PIPAC (pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy). Recently, a growing number of preclinical and clinical studies advocate intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy as an alternative post-operative therapy for cancer. Although their effectiveness has been proven both experimentally and clinically, there is still little understanding of the role of drug delivery systems (DDS) in targeting drugs in the intraperitoneal (IP) cavity. There are two main challenges one posed by IP cavity where the residence time of a small molecular weight drug (20 kDa) is not sufficiently long to maintain therapeutic effect. This leads to frequent or continuous dosing. Another challenge is device-related or catheter-related problems, such as catheter obstruction, increased risk of infection, and bowel complications. Overall literature shows that the IP site is satisfactorily explored by clinicians but in terms of drug delivery not that much. One can see a clear-cut gap of expertise exchange between the two fields and guidelines from regulatory lawmakers on new medications./ppbr/ppIn summary, challenges like delivery to IP cavity, tumor or organ-specific targeting, efficient tissue penetration, optimal cellular uptake and intracellular residence of a drug, biocompatibility, toxicity, etc can be easily solved by smartly designing functional drug delivery systems (both nano and micro). Nanotechnologies have always fascinated humans for several decades and are now widely explored in the biomedical field. Diverse types of nanoparticles are being explored around the world, some examples include biodegradable nanoparticles, green nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, lipid nanoparticles, metal nanoparticles, graphene, carbon nanotubes, and several others. Now a day's nanoparticles are gaining interest for drug targeting of chemotherapeutic drugs, immunotherapy, and gene delivery. Whereas microparticles can be explored for delayed drug delivery to the peritoneal cavity due to relatively slow removal from IP fluid. Hydrogels or other adhesive drug delivery may help to enhance peritoneal adhesions; thereby maintaining the balance between benefit and risk. Overall, drug delivery systems are key in IP targeting. That means drug delivery specialist and clinician needs to be connected to get the best out of this route of drug administration./ppbr/ppThe present book is a link between pharmaceutical scientists (drug formulators), clinicians, toxicologists, and regulatory experts. This book also provides a new perspective to researchers to divert or guide their research in an optimal way. Exploring Drug Delivery to the Peritoneum serves as a platform for upcoming technologies especially in the medical devices sector to face up and show potential in delivering drugs. It is a chance for commercial partners like insurance companies and the pharma industry to explore this direction./pp/pp
