Therapies and Procedures

1.	Vitrectomy 04/01/2007 - "Intraoperative complications included blockage of the TSV cutter tip during attempted clearance of organized intragel haemorrhage, thus requiring conversion to conventional trans pars plana vitrectomy (1; 2.6%). " 01/01/2014 - "The earlier the vitrectomy, the higher the risk of intraoperative complications. " 11/01/2013 - "We analyzed the epidemiological characteristics, data from the initial eye examination and intraoperative complications and follow-up after vitrectomy. " 01/01/2013 - "Pars plana vitrectomy was performed, and the posterior hyaloid was separated from the retina with a vitrectomy cutter without any intraoperative complications. " 01/01/2013 - "To prevent intraoperative complications, intracapsular lens extraction with dry vitrectomy can be a good surgical option. "
2.	Phacoemulsification 02/01/2012 - "All 3 phacoemulsification machines were effective with no significant intraoperative complications. " 12/01/2006 - "A prospective, randomised study should be performed to compare the number of intraoperative complications between ultrasound and Aqualase phacoemulsification." 12/01/2006 - "The aim of this study was to make an evaluation of the frequency of intraoperative complications during Aqualase phacoemulsification and correlate it to different intraoperative pupil diameters and nuclear grades. " 11/01/2005 - "The incidence of intraoperative complication of vitreous loss, the relative risk of such complication performed by the learning curve surgeon in the present study serve as benchmarks for residents-in-training, beginning and surgeon-in-practice converting to phacoemulsification." 05/01/2004 - "The study parameters included phacoemulsification time, intraoperative complications and early postoperative outcome. "

" 03/01/2015 - "Intraoperative complications such as graft malpositioning, neurovascular injury, and graft fracture can all be mitigated with meticulous surgical technique and understanding of the local anatomy. " 02/01/2015 - "Twelve hemimandibles were type 2B and 21 were type 3. No intraoperative complications were reported, and no incidence of graft resorption was noted. " 01/01/2015 - "Our simulations suggest that surgical injury and I/R-induced graft damage can be well-tolerated by the recipient when each is present alone, but that their combination (along with antigenic mismatch) may lead to acute rejection, as seen clinically in a subset of patients. "
4.	General Anesthesia 01/01/2012 - "Twenty-eight rats underwent surgical injury of the tracheal mucosa and perichondrium under general anesthesia, and were randomized into four groups.

5.	Ligation 06/01/1994 - "The end points of this study were intraoperative complications, success in performance of proximal vascular ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery, complete removal of the mesorectum including all lymph nodes adjacent to the named rectal arteries, and wide clearance of pelvic side walls. " 01/01/2015 - "Surgical Injury to the Mouse Pancreas through Ligation of the Pancreatic Duct as a Model for Endocrine and Exocrine Reprogramming and Proliferation." 11/01/2005 - "The peroperative complications can be summed up in a conversion in laparotomy due to haemorrhage, and a case of ligation of the right urethra. " 05/01/1996 - "Invasiveness (transperitoneal approach, intraoperative complications, general anesthesia, duration of operation, possible ligation of the spermatic artery) is not less, but the technical expenditure and costs are higher than those in competing procedures. " 07/01/1991 - "A series of varying types of surgical injuries to the recurrent laryngeal nerve, including half section, double crush, suture ligation, and complete section of the nerve, was investigated in dogs by correlating clinical and electromyographic findings.
