摘要:

A case of major hepatic injury with associated juxtahepatic trauma is reported. Repair of the injuries was effected with the aid of extracorporeal circulation. This aided exposure of the bleeding site while at the same time minimizing blood loss. Hypothermia is an added benefit of this approach, decreasing the risk of hepatic ischaemia.

摘要:

This is a case report of a 66-year-old female who had been taking Coumadin for 4 weeks for deep vein thrombosis. She developed acute carpal tunnel syndrome following minor trauma to her wrist. After conservative therapy failed to relieve her symptoms she underwent release of her carpal tunnel with resolution of her symptoms. While there are many patients taking Coumadin, its association with acute carpal tunnel syndrome is quite rare: we were only able to find only one other reported case in the literature. While one is tempted to treat these patients conservatively, operative therapy may be indicated.

摘要:

Two cases of compartment syndromes after tibial fractures are presented in patients who had no sensation in the involved compartments. The absence of any clinical symptoms in these patients emphasizes the need for routine monitoring of intra-compartmental pressure in this select group of patients.
