Excerpt

The major risk associated with the use of vitamin K antagonists (VKA) is haemorrhage, which might be severe or even life-threatening. In clinical studies where anticoagulation intensity was carefully monitored, treatment with VKA increases the risk of major bleeding by 0.3–0.5% per year when compared to controls [1]. In randomized trials including patients with mechanical heart valves, VKA treatment was associated with a risk of major bleeding ranging between 1 and 8.3% [1]. However, in clinical practice, the rates are less consistent [1]. The major determinants of VKA-induced bleeding are the intensity of the anticoagulant effect, the patient characteristics, the concomitant use of drugs that interfere with hemostasis, and the length of therapy [1]. …

Menschen mit linksseitigem Kolonkarzinom leben im Mittel zweieinhalb Jahre länger als solche mit rechtsseitigem Tumor. Auch aktuell ist das Sterberisiko bei linksseitigen Tumoren US-Daten zufolge etwa um 11% geringer als bei rechtsseitigen.

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren.
