Pancreatic Auto Islet Transplantation is a procedure used to maintain insulin production and secretion in patients with chronic pancreatitis that are undergoing a total pancreatectomy, or removal of the entire pancreas. When all other medical therapies fail to control the pain, removal of the pancreas may be an option; however it can leave a person diabetic, which means that the body can no longer control blood sugar levels, and will require intensive testing of blood sugar and injections of insulin. The pancreas is an organ, located in the upper abdominal cavity, behind the stomach, liver and colon. Within the pancreas, specialized clusters of cells known as islets produce insulin, which maintain healthy blood sugar levels. The pancreas also produces enzymes to help digest food. In order to alleviate pain and maintain insulin production, the pancreas is removed from the body, processed and the islets are harvested. Once the pancreas is removed, it is placed in a solution and put into a machine where the pancreas is digested. The islets are then infused into the patient’s liver. Within a short time, the islets are expected to start producing insulin. In 80% of patients, the pain from pancreatitis is relieved by a total pancreatectomy. Over time, some patients may be diabetic and will need to take insulin to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. All patients will take pancreatic enzymes to help digest food after surgery.

Scar revision includes techniques that improve the appearance of an unsightly scar, regardless of its size, type or age. This is typically not covered by insurance carriers and is treated as a cosmetic procedure. Though scars can never be completely removed, the appearance of scarring can be greatly diminished. Who Should Get Scar Revision? The best candidates for scar revision are in good health and have realistic expectations. Scar revision may be used to treat: Hyperpigmented scars Large or plainly visible scars Keloid scarring Raised scars Deep depression scars After scar revision, the appearance of your scar should be greatly reduced. Scar revision can improve the size, shape and color of your scar. Multiple procedures may be needed to achieve optimal results. There are several different techniques that can be used during your scar revision. During a consultation, we can discuss the best techniques and determine if you are a suitable candidate. What to Expect During Your Scar Revision Your scar revision may involve one or more of the following techniques: Topical treatments (gels, creams, external compression) can treat mild scarring or changes in pigmentation. Injectable treatments like dermal fillers are best for filling in scar depressions. These treatment options can provide long-lasting improvements, however, they are not always permanent. Surface treatments like chemical peels, dermabrasion, laser therapy and skin bleaching can improve skin tone and texture. More than one treatment may be needed to achieve optimal results. Surgical scar revision is only used in more severe cases. Reconstructive techniques like Z-plasty, tissue expansion, or skin grafting replace a prominent scar with a less noticeable scar.

Vertigo
Vertigo samer kareem 7,067 Views • 2 years ago

There are a number of different causes of vertigo. Vertigo can be defined based upon whether the cause is peripheral or central. Central causes of vertigo arise in the brain or spinal cord while peripheral vertigo is due to a problem within the inner ear. The inner ear can become inflamed because of illness, or small crystals or stones found normally within the inner ear can become displaced and cause irritation to the small hair cells within the semicircular canals, leading to vertigo. This is known as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).
