In conclusion, among different factors tested, surgical resection, hemoglobin level, lymph node involvement, and SVC obstruction were found to have significant effects on DSS, regardless of model-type.
At laparotomy, the obstruction was found to be due to extensive peritoneal disease outside the radiation field.
When the optimal cut-off value for MA determined by ROC curve analysis was used, the sensitivity of MA ≥ 63.5 mm in predicting obstruction was found to be 47.4% and specificity 75% (area under ROC curve 0.58).
Tubal obstruction rates were found to be 70, 30, 30 and 20%, respectively.
Obstructions were found in both the iliac-femoral-popliteal and infrapopliteal axes in 248 patients (60.0%).
People with prolonged airway obstruction have been found to perceive symptoms less accurately than those with acute onset airway obstruction [ 67].
Three months after the diagnosis of the oropharyngeal disease, the patient developed intestinal obstruction and was found to have an eosinophilic granulomatous mass in the transverse colon that contained hyphae with a Splendore-Hoeppli reaction.
Fibreoptic bronchoscopy to aspirate secretions has been used in the management of proximal airway obstruction, and has been found to resolve atelectasis successfully in 26 of 35 (74%) paediatric intensive care patients [ 9].
The cause of tracheal obstruction in this case was found to be a large LCH.
Renal calculi have been found to cause obstruction of the renal collecting system, which subsequently results in hydronephrosis, chronic infection and eventual atrophy of the renal parenchyma.
