We aimed to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of radiofrequency (RF) ablation for the treatment of large (≥5 cm in greatest diameter) hepatic hemangiomas.Thirty-six patients (15 male, 21 female; mean age 50 years) with 41 hepatic hemangiomas ≥5 cm in diameter were enrolled and treated with RF ablation attributable to the presence of enlargement tendency and/or persistent hemangioma-associated...
We compared the effectiveness of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) and traditional suture for patch fixation in Lichtenstein tension-free herniorrhaphy for inguinal hernias.A total of 110 patients with primary unilateral inguinal hernia were assigned randomly to either experimental or control groups. In the experimental group, NBCA adhesive was used during Lichtenstein herniorrhaphy; traditional suture...
