Modeling Colitis-Associated Cancer with Azoxymethane (AOM) and Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS)
Published on: September 11, 2012
Abstract:
The experience of treatment is available for 404 patients with mechanical obstruction in cancer of the colon. Clinicoroentgenological and ultrasound examinations of the organs of abdominal cavity provided early diagnosis of the disease. Radical operations were carried out in 59.7% of the patients, palliative ones--in 40.3%. Radical right-sided hemicolectomy was completed by creation of ileotransversoanastomosis, in left-sided hemicolectomy it was obligatory to take out both ends of the resected colon (if it is possible technically and later restoration of its continuity is planned), or the operation of Hartmann type was performed. The operation should be completed in bowel decompression by nasointestinal intubation. It should be used the term "resolved" or "unresolved" bowel obstruction after the performance of conservative measures, and the term "partial bowel obstruction" should not be used as it presents formulation of treatment policy and may be the cause of undue delay of the operation.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by transmural...
