DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2018.006

Synopsis:

It is very important to estimate significance of preoperative clinical and demographic data and risk factors in prediction of short-term mortality in this patients, because patients with only two of large palette of preoperative risk factors significant higher short-term mortality.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The aim of this study is to estimate significance of preoperative clinical and demographic data and risk factors in prediction of short-term mortality in older patients after major non cardiac surgery.

Ascites in Ovarian Carcinoma – Reliability and Limitations of Cytological Analysis

Issue:

Vol 64, Issue 3: June (2015)

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2014.230

Pages:

236–40

Synopsis:

Peritoneal cytology of ascitic fluid is highly specific but has relatively low sensitivity, particularly in case of endometrioid ovarian carcinoma. In order to increase sensitivity, peritoneal cytology should be combined with monoclonal antibodies and other biochemical and immunohistochemical markers.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The objectives of this study were to examine the validity of ascitic fluid cytology in the detection of pathological findings, to examine the percentage of false positive and false negative results in the cytology of ascitic fluid and to determine the validity of peritoneal cytology in relation to the histopathological type of the ovarian tumour.
