Acetylcholine Re-Challenge After Intracoronary Nitroglycerine Administration

Acetylcholine Re-Challenge After Intracoronary Nitroglycerine Administration

This protocol presents the acetylcholine rechallenge after nitroglycerine as an add-on procedure to spasm provocation testing. The purpose of this technique is to unmask co-existing microvascular spasm in patients with epicardial spasm and to assess the protective efficacy of nitroglycerine on a per-patient level to guide medical...

Measurement of the Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient and Transjugular Liver Biopsy

Measurement of the Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient and Transjugular Liver Biopsy

Here, we present a protocol for measurement of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG),the gold standard to diagnose clinically significant portal hypertension. Moreover, we describe how to perform a transjugular liver biopsy within the same...

Laparoscopic Anatomic S7+S8d Resection Preserving Inferior Right Hepatic Vein and S6 with Right Hepatic Vein Transection

Laparoscopic Anatomic S7+S8d Resection Preserving Inferior Right Hepatic Vein and S6 with Right Hepatic Vein Transection

We present a laparoscopic technique for anatomic S7+S8d resection with right hepatic vein transection, preserving the inferior right hepatic vein and segment S6. Relying on meticulous anatomical landmarks without intraoperative ultrasound, this approach offers a precise and parenchyma-sparing option for dorsally located right-liver tumors, particularly in settings with limited advanced navigation...

Development of a Hepatitis B Virus Reporter System to Monitor the Early Stages of the Replication Cycle

Development of a Hepatitis B Virus Reporter System to Monitor the Early Stages of the Replication Cycle

Here we describe a newly developed hepatitis B virus (HBV) reporter system to monitor the early stages of the HBV life cycle. This simplified in vitro system will aid in the screening of anti-HBV agents using a high-throughput...

A Protocol for Analyzing Hepatitis C Virus Replication

A Protocol for Analyzing Hepatitis C Virus Replication

Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a major human pathogen that causes liver disorders, including cirrhosis and cancer. An HCV infectious cell culture system is essential for understanding the molecular mechanism of HCV replication and developing new therapeutic approaches. Here we describe a protocol to investigate various stages of the HCV replication cycle.

Modeling Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Non-Hepatic 293T-NE-3NRs Cells

Modeling Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Non-Hepatic 293T-NE-3NRs Cells

This manuscript describes a detailed protocol for Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in novel engineered 293T cells (293T-NE-3NRs, expressing human NTCP, HNF4α, RXRα and PPARα) and traditional hepatic cells (HepG2-NE, expressing human...

Summary

Primary hepatic actinomycosis, a rare liver infection, can mimic tumors and requires a high suspicion for accurate diagnosis. Prompt antibiotic treatment is crucial for recovery, avoiding unnecessary liver surgery.

Area of Science:

Hepatology
Infectious Diseases
Surgical Pathology

Background:

Primary hepatic actinomycosis (HA) is a rare, chronic abscess-forming infection.

Keywords:

Actinomyces israelii hepatectomy inflammatory pseudotumor, liver abscess liver resection liver tumor
