Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Aug-2018
Hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is an important cause of variceal bleeding in low-income countries. Randomised clinical trials have evaluated the outcomes of two categories of surgical interventions, shunts and devascularisation procedures, for the preventi - Surgical portosystemic shunts versus transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt for variceal haemorrhage in people with cirrhosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Oct-2018
Variceal haemorrhage that is refractory or recurs after pharmacologic and endoscopic therapy requires a portal decompression shunt (either surgical shunts or radiologic shunt, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)). TIPS has become the shun - Surgical procedures for evacuating incomplete miscarriage
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jul-2010
Incomplete miscarriage is a major problem that should be effectively managed with safe and appropriate procedures. Surgical evacuation of the uterus for management of incomplete miscarriage usually involves vacuum aspiration or sharp curettage. - Surgical removal versus retention for the management of asymptomatic disease‐free impacted wisdom teeth
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Prophylactic removal of asymptomatic disease-free impacted wisdom teeth is the surgical removal of wisdom teeth in the absence of symptoms and with no evidence of local disease. Impacted wisdom teeth may be associated with pathological changes, such as pe - Surgical repair of spontaneous perineal tears that occur during childbirth versus no intervention
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Nov-2013
Perineal tears commonly occur during childbirth. They are sutured most of the time. Surgical repair can be associated with adverse outcomes, such as pain, discomfort and interference with normal activities during puerperium and possibly breastfeeding. Sur - Surgical resection and whole brain radiation therapy versus whole brain radiation therapy alone for single brain metastases
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jul-2018
The treatment of brain metastasis is generally palliative since most patients have uncontrollable systemic cancer. Historically, whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) has been the treatment of choice, although more recently focused radiation therapy e.g. s - Surgical resection versus liver transplant for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jun-2013
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a major worldwide health problem, involving more than half a million new patients yearly, with a different incidence in different parts of the world.
