GB adverse effect of ceftriaxone
can cause GB SLUDGE
course of cystic artery compared to common hepatic duct
POSTERIOR
cystic artery variations
GDA
SMA
COMMON hepatic artery
Usually comes off RIGHT hepatic
primary source of bilirubin in the body
Senescent red blood cells
Whether due to aged cells or active hemolysis, hemoglobin is broken down into bilirubin and ultimately secreted into bile.
incidence of TIPS shunt stenosis
(up to 50%)
TIPS is what kind of shunt
side-to-side portosystemic shunt
nonselective shunt and completely diverts portal flow
TIPS is also effective in the treatment of medically intractable ascites
major cause of TIPS Shunt stenosis
neointimal hyperplasia
treatment of TIPS Shunt stenosis
often be resolved by balloon dilation
in some cases, by placement of a second shunt.
frequency of post-TIPS encephalopathy
(∼30%)
effectiveness of TIPS compared to endscopic tx of bleeding
TIPS more effective
effect of TIPS on pts requireing liver transplant
HELP temporize them!
does not mess with vasculature
risk factors associated with melanoma
UVA and UVB radiation congenital nevi, dysplastic nevi, xeroderma pigmentosa, family history
NOT actinic keratoses
(careful, actinic keratoses IS risk for squamous)
tx of Immediate sensory and motor deficits after creation of an arteriovenous fistula
requires immediate ligation
NOT DRIL
The DRIL (distal revascularization - interval ligation) procedure is used in patients that do not have dramatic symptoms in the immediate postoperative period
treatment of symptomatic Meckel’s diverticulum
Uncomplicated:
Diverticulectomy only
complicated:
Diverticulitis, GI bleeding, wide-based-
segmental resection
wait for obstructive symptoms to resolve?
Diagnosis of Zenker’s diverticulum
barium swallow
incision for opened Zenker’s diverticulum
left neck
when is a myotomy alone sufficient for Zenker’s
diverticulum less than 2 cm
when is diverticulo pexy performed for Zenker’s
elderly patients
LARGE diverticula to avoid complications of resection
prophylactic pre-incision antibiotics for colon surgery
second generation cephalosporin
cefoxitin
Cefotetan
or
Cefazolin and Flagyl
winded a therapeutic course of antibiotics recommended instead of just prophylactic pre-incision antibiotics for trauma
greater than 6 hours and time of injury
Signs of infection intraoperatively
symptoms of hypoglossal nerve injury
IPSILATERAL (towards the site of injury)
Tongue deviation
marginal mandibular nerve
branch of the facial nerve
“motor car”
Retraction and angle of mandible
Drooping of ipsilateral lip
site of injury from deceleration trauma of aorta
ligamentum arteriosum
just distal to subclavian
A 26-year-old female with a 3 cm heterogeneously enhancing hepatic lesion
adenoma
less than 4 cm and is asymptomatic, it does not need to be resected. If the patient is taking oral contraceptive pills (OCP), she should be advised to discontinue them.
