The main surgical approaches to the hip for insertion of the prosthe - Surgical cytoreduction for recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Feb-2013
The standard management of primary ovarian cancer is optimal cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy. Most women with primary ovarian cancer achieve remission on this combination therapy. For women achieving clinical remission after - Surgical decompression for cerebral oedema in acute ischaemic stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Nov-2011
Large cerebral infarction has a high case fatality. Despite the use of conventional medical treatments such as hyperventilation, mannitol, diuretics, corticosteroids and barbiturates, the outcome of this condition remains poor. Decompressive surgery to re - Surgical decompression for malignant cerebral oedema after ischaemic stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Nov-2022
Large territory middle cerebral artery (MCA) ischaemic strokes account for around 10% of all ischaemic strokes and have a particularly devastating prognosis when associated with malignant oedema. Progressive cerebral oedema starts developing in the first - Surgical excision margins for primary cutaneous melanoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Oct-2009
Cutaneous melanoma accounts for 75% of skin cancer deaths. Standard treatment is surgical excision with a safety margin some distance from the borders of the primary tumour. The purpose of the safety margin is to remove both the complete primary tumour an - Surgical fixation methods for tibial plateau fractures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Sep-2015
Fractures of the tibial plateau, which are intra-articular injuries of the knee joint, are often difficult to treat and have a high complication rate, including early-onset osteoarthritis. Surgical fixation is usually used for more complex tibial plateau - Surgical hand antisepsis to reduce surgical site infection
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jan-2016
Medical professionals routinely carry out surgical hand antisepsis before undertaking invasive procedures to destroy transient micro-organisms and inhibit the growth of resident micro-organisms. Antisepsis may reduce the risk of surgical site infections ( - Surgical implantation of steroids with antiangiogenic characteristics for treating neovascular age‐related macular degeneration
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Jan-2013
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is associated with rapid vision loss due to choroidal neovascularization (CNV), leakage, and scarring. Steroids have gained attention in their role for the treatment of neovascular AMD for their antiangio - Surgical interruption of pelvic nerve pathways for primary and secondary dysmenorrhoea
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Oct-2005
Dysmenorrhoea is the occurrence of painful menstrual cramps of uterine origin and is a very common gynaecological complaint with negative effect on a sufferer's quality of life. Medical therapy for dysmenorrhoea includes oral contraceptive pills (OCP) and - Surgical intervention for anorectal fistula
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Apr-2010
Surgery for anorectal fistula may result in recurrence, or impairment of continence. The ideal treatment for anorectal fistulae should be associated with low recurrence rates, minimal incontinence and good quality of life. - Surgical intervention versus expectant management for endometrial polyps in subfertile women
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Aug-2014
Endometrial polyps, which are benign growths of the endometrium, may be a factor in female subfertility. Possible mechanisms include physical interference with gamete transport, alteration of the endometrial milieu and unresponsiveness to the cyclical glo - Surgical interventions (microfracture, drilling, mosaicplasty, and allograft transplantation) for treating isolated cartilage defects of the knee in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Sep-2016
Cartilage defects of the knee are often debilitating and predispose to osteoarthritis. Microfracture, drilling, mosaicplasty, and allograft transplantation are four surgical treatment options that are increasingly performed worldwide. We set out to examin - Surgical interventions for age‐related cataract
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Oct-2006
Cataract accounts for 50% of blindness globally and remains the leading cause of visual impairment in all regions of the world, despite improvements in surgical outcomes (WHO 2005). This number is expected to rise due to an aging population and increase i - Surgical interventions for anterior shoulder instability in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Oct-2009
The shoulder is the most common joint to develop recurrent instability. Repair of labral tears of the joint and reconstruction of damaged capsule and torn ligaments either by open or arthroscopic methods remain the cornerstone of current management. - Surgical interventions for bilateral congenital cataract in children aged two years and under
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Sep-2022
Congenital cataracts are lens opacities in one or both eyes of babies or children present at birth. These may cause a reduction in vision severe enough to require surgery. Cataracts are proportionally the most treatable cause of visual loss in childhood, - Surgical interventions for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
