All patients with PJIs required
explantation of the infected hardware followed by antimicrobial spacer placement for [greater than or equal to] 3 months in addition to ongoing postoperative oral or intravenous antimicrobial therapy to achieve a successful outcome.
A potential
explantation for this is that ghrelin is predominantly released from P1/D1 cells in the upper stomach and fundus, a part of the GI tract which is unaffected by the EndoBarrier implant unlike in RYGB.
Now, two years from her initial
explantation, she continues to follow up monthly in our clinic and states that she is doing well.
In this study, we also used tissue
explantation and proteolytic enzyme digestion at 4 AdegC to isolate the epithelial cells.
Perhaps more importantly, IL-1[beta] and IL6 had the highest sensitivities as diagnostic tools (90% and 81%, resp.), and both also had the greatest decrease between
explantation and reimplantation demonstrating infection resolution (12.4-fold decrease for IL-1[beta]; 11.2-fold decrease for IL-6), implicating IL-1[beta] and IL-6 as potentially the most applicable for usage in diagnosis/prognosis of PJI.
Surgical sites that were "not clean" at the time of mesh
explantation were associated with a lack of cellular penetrance to the center of the mesh specimen, indicating less constructive remodeling [18].

As the patient improved clinically,
explantation from ECMO occurred 20 days postoperatively.
In case of implant fracture, there are two options: (1) complete removal of the implant fractured using
explantation drills and (2) the use of the fractured implant in order to place a new prosthesis [24].
In the United States in the 1990s, a group of major heart failure referral centers reportedly diagnosed GCM (via autopsy, endomyocardial biopsy, apical wedge resection, or cardiac
explantation) an average of once every 21 months.
