Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy; It’s Complications and Causes of Conversion to Open Cholecystectomy.
...Show More Authors

Background: The laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard for treating the symptomatic cholelithiasis. Conversion is sometimes necessary due to finding unexpected pathology,intraoperative complications or unexpected technical errors .

Objectives: The aims of this study were to determine the complications and the predictive factors of conversion in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for various indications in elective and acute settings in a general hospital in order to reduce the incidence rates of both , complications and  conversion of laparoscopic cholecystectomy to the open technique .

Patients and Methods: This is a prospective study included 128 patients [their ages ranged from18 -65 years; the mean =39.60 ± 11.37 SD years].Female patients were 111 (86.7 ) ,male patients were 17 (13.3 % ) . These patients underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy in AL-Karama Teaching Hospital / College of Medicine / Wasit University-Iraq,from April 2011 till December 2012. Recorded data were sex, age, indications for laparoscopic cholecystectomy , complications, conversion to the open technique , reasons of conversion, co- morbidity , length of the hospital stay and 30- day mortality.

Results: The intraoperative complications were; bleeding from the cystic artery in 9 patients (7.03 %), perforation of the gallbladders in17 patients (13.28% ) and spillage of the stones from cystic duct stump in12 patients( 9.37% ).All these complications were successfully treated laparoscopically.This study has no postoperative complications during follow-up period . Conversion from a laparoscopic cholecystectomy to an open cholecystectomy was performed for 7 patients ( 5.49 % ). The reasons for conversion were ; dense fibrosis of Calot’s triangle in two patients ( 1.56 % ) and one patient(0.78 % ) for each of the following pathologies : cholecystoduodental fistula ,postoperative adhesions , impacted stone in the cystic duct , Mirrizzi’s syndrome and incidental CBD stone.The intaoperative findings and postoperative histopathologic diagnoses were: 114 patients( 89.1 % ) with chronic calculous cholecystitis, 5 patients ( 3.9 % ) with acute calculous cholecystitis, 5 patients( 3,9 % )  with empyema of the gall bladder, 4 patients ( 3.1 % ) with mucocele of the gall bladder .There was no mortality in this study .                                                                                                                        

Conclusions: In this study,there were simple complications being laparoscopically treated .Male gender, age older than 50 years that were associated with dense fibrosis of Calot’s triangle , postoperative upper abdominal adhesions,cholecystoduodenal fistula Mirrizi’syndrome ,impaced stones in the cystic duct and incidental CBD stone were the main factors of conversion .

The morphological and pollen grains study of Tropaeolum L. (Tropaeolaceae) in Iraq
...Show More Authors

The current study included a detail morphological study of all parts of the two species of the genus Tropaeolum L. (Tropaeolumceae) cultivated in different gardens, the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruit were studied in detail, also the pollen grains were studied, and there are photographs for all that parts were putted. A specimens of that taxa were studied in some Iraqi herbaria. The study found that there are many characters were used in differentiation of two species under study.

Theoretical Analysis of Seepage through Homogeneous and Non-homogeneous Saturated-Unsaturated Soil
...Show More Authors

In this research, the program SEEP / W was used to compute the value of seepage through the homogenous and non-homogeneous earth dam with known dimensions. The results show that the relationship between the seepage and water height in upstream of the dam to its length for saturated soil was nonlinear when the dam is homogenous. For the non-homogeneous dam, the relationship was linear and the amount of seepage increase with the height of water in upstream to its length. Also the quantity of seepage was calculated using the method of (Fredlund and Xing, 1994) and (Van Genuchten, 1980) when the soil is saturated – unsaturated, the results referred to that the higher value of seepage when the soil is saturated and the lowe

Assessment of serum and salivary malondialdehyde in patients with oral lichen planus
...Show More Authors

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of fibroblast growth factor-2 and Heparanase in salivary pleomorphic adenoma, and to correlate the two studied markers with each other and with clinicopathological parameters including: age, sex, tumor site and histopathological presentation. Methods: Sections of twenty five formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue blocks specimens of salivary pleomorphic adenoma were immunostained using monoclonal antibodies (Fibroblast growth factor-2 and Heparanase) to assess their expression in this tumor. Results: The expression of fibroblast growth factor-2 and Heparanase were positive in all pleomorphic adenoma cases (100%). The positive expression of fibroblast growth factor-2 was signi

Synthesis, Characterization and Preliminary Anti-inflammatory Evaluation of New Fenoprofen Hydrazone Derivatives
...Show More Authors

New hydrazone derivatives of Fenoprofen were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity by means of egg white induced paw edema method. All the synthesized target compounds were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, 1HNMR analysis and by measure of their physical properties. The synthesis of the target compounds(H1-H4) was accomplished by multistep reaction procedures. The synthesized target compounds were show activity in reducing paw edema thickness and their anti-inflammatory effect was comparable to that of the standard (Fenoprofen) except for compound H3 which show anti-inflammatory activity higher than Fenoprofen.

    Hydrothermal technology has many advantages compared to other growth methods such as the availability of their simple equipment,catalyst-free growth,Environmental friendliness, less dangerous environmental, and low costs. Combine spinning method technology with Hydrothermal could improve the structural of ZnO NS by increasing the formation of ZnO NS due to influence of heat annealed treatments on the structure of ZnO NS.   ZnONano-Sheets (NS)were prepared to employ hydrothermal process utilizing zinc acetate, that  has the chemical composition (Zn (CH3CO2)2.2H2O),as a precursor. After preparing the material, it is deposited in two methods, the first being disti
