Study Type - Therapy (case series) Level of Evidence 4. What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Until now, the transvaginal approach has been the only method of removing larger specimens from the abdominal cavity using natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery. There has been no means of extracting larger specimens in men and the means are restricted even in women, particularly in young ...

INTRODUCTION: The chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs in renal transplant recipients increases the risk of developing de novo malignancies. Herein we analyze the incidence of de novo tumors and the potential role of sirolimus to improve cancer-specific survival among a cohort at a single center. METHODS: This retrospective analysis of our 1,816 patients allografted between January 1983 and December 2009 soug...
BACKGROUND: Transvesical port refers to the method of accessing the abdominal cavity through a natural orifice (i.e., urethra) under endoscopic visualization. Since its introduction in 2006, various reports have been published describing different surgical interventions using a rigid ureteroscope in a porcine model. The aim of this study was to test the access and feasibility of peritoneoscopy by using a rigid ...

A nefrectomia parcial (NP) é uma técnica reconhecida no tratamento de diferentes patologias renais,nomedamente na oncológica. Os autores apresentam a sua casuística dos últimos 10 anos, com avaliação dos índices de recorrência e sobrevivência.
This paper analyses the wave scattering generated by point pressure loads in the vicinity of infinite fluid-filled circular pipelines submerged in a homogeneous fluid medium. The pipeline has a constant cross-section and is modelled as a homogeneous elastic material. The three-dimensional (3-D) response is formulated in the frequency domain, and is obtained as a discrete summation of the 2-D solutions found for...
This work analyzes the wave scattering by an elastic, fluid-filled, cylindrical shell structure submerged in a fluid medium and subjected to the effect of a point pressure load placed inside or outside the cylindrical shell. The shell structures modeled have constant cross-sections along their axis, corresponding to 2.5D problems. A Fourier transformation in the direction in which the geometry does not vary is ...
Strengthening and rehabilitation by reinforced concrete jacketing of columns is assessed, considering different practical aspects: anchoring and slab crossing of the added longitudinal reinforcement, interface surface preparation, spacing of added stirrups, temporary shoring of the structure and addition of new concrete. Recent research on these topics and the main recommendations to achieve good RC jacketing a...
