Assessment And Treatment

Wandering spleen and gastric volvulus are two rare entities that have been described in association with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The diagnosis is difficult and any delay can result in ischemia and necrosis of both organs. We present a case of a 13-year-old girl, previously operated on for anterior diaphragmatic hernia and intrathoracic gastric volvulus, that presented to our service for a subdiaphragmatic gastric volvulus recurrence associated with a wandering spleen. In this report we reviewed the literature, analyzing the clinical presentation, diagnostic assessment, and treatment options of both conditions, in particular in the case associated with diaphragmatic hernia.

Assessment Strategies

Depression is a common problem among pregnant andpostpartum women, with rates comparable to or greater than those among women of childbearing age who are not pregnant or postpartum. Perinatal depression is associated with a wide range of unique assessment and treatment complexities, risk factors, and consequences for women and offspring. In this chapter, we review current research on the prevalence of perinatal depression, etiology, risk factors, and consequences, and we discuss assessment strategies and interventions. Limitations to current research and future research directions are noted. We conclude with guidelines for practitioners for assessing and treating depression during the perinatal period.

Background and Aims: The logistics of diagnosis and treatment in a hospital with slightly above 400 new cases of breast cancer per year is analysed. Materials and Methods: The patient flow from referral, through the diagnostic procedures and through surgical treatment is described. Results and Conclusions: The basic principle of the diagnostic assessment is the triple diagnostic procedure including mammography supplemented by ultrasonography, fine needle aspiration cytology and clinical examination. The radiologist and pathologist are working together in the breast diagnostic centre and are thus able to give a “single visit diagnosis” in most cases. The surgeon sees the patient either the same day or the next. A “consensus meeting” held each week with representatives for all specialities present has an important function in quality assurance and education. If one or more of the triple diagnostic components reach conclusion level “suspicious lesion”, surgery is indicated. In hospital management is based on day surgery for all biopsies, wide excisions with or without sentinel node and some ablatio simplex mammae. For wide excision and ablation with complete axillary node clearance, the patients are transferred from the day surgery unit to a patient hotel after 3–4 hours of observation and stay till the drain can be removed. Only in rare case of high cardiopulmonary risk, beds in ordinary wards are used. This is a highly cost efficient logistic saving the hospital approximately 400 000 EUR a year compared to ordinary in hospital treatment.

In contrast to traditional “interdisciplinary” methods of consultation where independent assessment and treatment are carried out by different treating agencies, the “ecological” approach involves continuing cooperation between all systems affecting the maintenance of the symptom in the patient-biological, psychological, individual, familial, social and community. The present case demonstrates how such an ecological approach resulted in the effective removal of symptoms in a 9-year-old child with intermittent esophageal stenosis. While there had been earlier consultations in the “interdisciplinary” sense by both the Department of Ear, Nose and Throat and the Department of Child Psychiatry, it was only when the family and all disciplines working with them were brought together on the same physical premises face to face that directives became fused and united. This enabled the family to mobilize its resources and effectively deal with its problems, resulting in the alleviation of the manifest symptoms.
