Surgical Methods

Trauma with foreign objects retained within the human body has become a common surgical emergency condition. Traditional surgical methods often involve creating large incisions in soft tissue and may lead to additional complications during wound healing. We have developed a new method of removing foreign bodies from patients’ abdomens by using laparoscopy with the help of a novel navigation system that provides accurate positioning. This approach is minimally invasive and simple. This is the first combination of both technologies in this field.

Combined Use

A new method for the treatment of patients with acute purulent necrotic processes by means of ultrasonic cavitation and vacuum therapy has been elaborated. The aim was to study the combined influence of ultrasonic cavitation and vacuum therapy on the course of wound healing. The method complements the treatment of patients with severe purulent necrotic processes of soft tissue.

Ultrasound Guided

Foreign bodies (FBs) retained in the subcutaneous tissues are a common reason for medical consultation. In small animals, FBs usually consist of vegetal materials, especially grass awns. Failure to remove the FBs is likely to give rise to acute or late complications. The surgical removal of the FBs can be invasive, costly and technically challenging. Ultrasound has become a mainstay in the detection of FBs and it can be used to guide the extraction of the FBs with a minimally invasive technique. This study describes the detection and extraction of soft-tissue FBs in small animals. One hundred-sixty-two patients, presenting at two veterinary clinics with suspected FBs retained in the soft tissues of various body districts, were considered. Once an ultrasound diagnosis was established, the ultrasound-guided removal of the FB was performed. A high-frequency linear transducer, a skin disinfection, sedation or anaesthesia was used when needed and a scalpel and some Hartmann forceps were also used. One hundred-eighty-two FBs were successfully removed in all the patients. In six cases, the FB was identified during a second ultrasonographic examination, after recurrence of the fistula. No complications were reported after the procedure. The extraction of the FB was performed in an echographic suite in 138 cases and in a surgery room with surgical intervention in 24 cases. In the latter situation, the surgical minimally invasive dissection of tissues under ultrasound guidance was performed before the removal of the FB. In conclusion, the ultrasound-guided removal of the FBs retained in the superficial soft tissue can be considered a good alternative to surgery. However, failure to remove a FB does not preclude the removal by traditional surgery.

Unique Case

A symptomatic foreign body embedded in the human body can be a frustrating problem for physician and patient alike. A unique case of a retained foreign object resulting from a pellet gun injury has been presented. Although the course of treatment in this case was uncomplicated, it is important to understand the complexities of the human body's response to foreign bodies.

The rate of colorectal foreign bodies is increasing. Endoscopists must be creative in order to remove the foreign objects safely in the most minimally invasive manner as these objects could vary greatly in size and shape. We present a case of the novel use of an esophageal overtube to aid in the removal of a difficult-to-remove Tide-To-Go cap.

Objective. The objective of the article is to create a design model of a thermoelectric system for extracting foreign objects from the human body by freezing when introduced into the cavity, as well as to study the internal thermophysical processes.Methods. A design model of a thermoelectric system for extracting foreign objects from the human body by freezing the thermoelectric system introduced into the cavity is developed, based on solving the problem of thermal conductivity, taking into account the thermophysical characteristics of a biological object, foreign object, and a thermoelectric module.Results. As a result of the numerical experiment, the authors obtained graphs of temperature changes at various points of the thermoelectric system when introduced into the human body to extract a foreign object, depending on the power of the thermoelectric system, the parameters of the module materials, and external conditions. It is determined that the device can use a standard thermoelectric module with a cooling capacity from 4500 W/m2 to 7000 W/m2 with a duration of 6-7 minutes for entering the system mode.Conclusion. It is established that the selection of thermoelectric module parameters must be guided by the limitations of the device operation, as well as medical norms and standards to avoid the process of cold injury of adjacent tissues, which is fully provided in the proposed design. A method for improving the efficiency of the system is proposed, according to which the thermoelectric system is pre-cooled using an external cold source, and forced modes of thermoelectric module operation are used.

A symptomatic foreign object lodged in the foot can be a difficult problem. The object's location and shape are the most important factors to identify before removal of the object is attempted. Many different imaging modalities have been used to locate the foreign objects in the foot. The authors briefly reviewed several common imaging modalities. Computed tomography appears to be superior to the other imaging modalities discussed in visualizing and localizing foreign objects in the foot. Magnetic resonance scanning is probably equal to computed tomography but is less readily available and more expensive and is contraindicated with ferrous metal foreign bodies.

Wounds are damage or loss of body tissue due to a factor that interferes the body's protection system. When a wound occurs, it is very possible that germs and foreign objects can interfere the body's protective system . The body has its own defense system, which without humans realizes when there is a disruption or imbalance in the human body, then by itself the body will compensate for the interference. Likewise, when a wound occurs, the body will automatically doing healing process. However, the most common complication during wound healing is infection, therefore it is important to know the management of wound care.
