... Abstract Anatomic hepatic segmentectomy is considered the gold standard approach for liver resection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, with the goal of reducing cancer recurrence after liver resection. This approach may also be useful for other indications, such as for segmental...

... non-Fuchs' irreversible corneal edema postoperatively. Toxic anterior segment syndrome is a rare complication of intraocular surgery that has only recently been recognized [ 14 ]. It is characterized by acute sterile inflammation in the anterior segment caused by noxious agents...

... type 1 and PPCD have both been mapped to the pericentric region of chromosome 20. An exciting development is found in the field of in vivo imaging modalities, such as confocal microscopy and spectral domain anterior segment optical coherence tomography. These may be able to help better characterize...

... Abstract Drug delivery into the posterior segment of the eye is complicated by the existence of the blood-ocular barrier. Strategies for delivering drugs to the posterior segment include systemic administration, modification of the barrier, and local drug delivery (including transcorneal...

... (<4 weeks) mostly develop involving the anterior segment while chronic or late (>4 weeks) effects are confined to the posterior segment and orbital tissues [ 4 ]. Acute lesions are primarily due to radiation effects on rapidly proliferating cells such as those present in the eyelid skin...

... Abstract Therapeutic radiation to the posterior segment of the eye is a common option for posterior segment tumors. Such tumors are often malignant, but sometimes, benign neoplasms are treated with ionizing radiation. Also, non-neoplastic intraocular lesions like wet age-related macular...

... Abstract Embryology of the posterior segment of the eye is significant in terms of understanding many pediatric retinal diseases, in particular coloboma formation and persistent fetal vasculature syndrome. Embryology of the eye has been described over several decades. Using some newer...

... Abstract Drug delivery into the posterior segment of the eye is complicated by the existence of the blood-ocular barrier. Strategies for delivering drugs to the posterior segment include systemic administration, modification of the barrier, and local drug delivery (including transcorneal...

... Abstract Intracorneal refractive surgery includes intracorneal inlay implantation for presbyopia reversal and intracorneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation, originally designed to treat low to moderate myopia and currently used to treat ectatic corneal disorders such as post-LASIK corneal...

... Abstract This study aimed to analyze the treatment, clinical outcomes, and risk factors that affect the prognosis of patients with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and to provide theoretical evidence for various treatment options in these patients. The study reviewed...

... Abstract Whole body bioimpedance (BI) appears to be accurate and reproducible in the assessment ofbody composition, but does not appear useful for estimation of dry weight. Segmental BI hasbeen used for the assessment of muscle mass in body segments, such as arms or legs and may beuseful...
