<h3>Objective:</h3> To determine if the pattern of orbital fractures may be influenced by changing craniofacial ratio growing child, as orbit is boundary between face and cranium. <h3>Design:</h3> Retrospective case series 40 patients ages 1 year 16 years with fractures. <h3>Setting:</h3> The Albany (NY) Medical Center Hospital, a tertiary level trauma center. <h3>Outcome measures:</h3> sex, age, site, mechanism injury, associated treatment methods for children admitted to Hospital July 1986...
The anatomy of the orbital septum and associated eyelid connective tissues was examined using cadaver dissection, histologic sections, surgical observations, special radiologic imaging. embryologic development also reviewed. Examination revealed a distinct layer fibroadipose tissue in eyebrow posterior to orbicularis frontalis muscles, anterior septum. Fibrous septa within submuscular become contiguous with more compact lamellae posteriorly imparting multilayered quality Fat may be mistaken...
In Brief Purpose: To examine the microbiologic spectrum of dacryocystitis, specifically characterizing differences between acute and chronic infection. Methods: National multicenter prospective study dacryocystitis based on culture results reported March 2005 2006. Chi-square analysis was used to compare groups. Results: Eighty-nine patients from 16 centers were included: 21 (23.6%) had infection 68 (76.4%) Of all 89 patients, there 80 total isolates with 55 (68.8%) Gram-positive isolates,...
We evaluated the immediate intraocular pressure increase after extracapsular cataract surgery in 58 eyes. Two to three hours postoperatively, 34 eyes (59%) developed an greater than or equal 25 mm Hg. found of at least 40 Hg seven Mean two postoperatively was 8.9 ± 9.8 preoperative pressure. The use sodium hyaluronate had no apparent effect on
Lymphedema typically affects a whole limb. Rarely, lymphedema can present as circumscribed plaque or an isolated skin tumor.To describe the clinical and pathologic characteristics etiologic factors of localized lymphedema.Case-control study biopsy excision specimens histologically diagnosed with presenting tumor identified during 4-year period.We 24 cases solitary large polyps (11), solid papillomatous plaques (7), pendulous swellings (4), tumors mimicking sarcoma (2). Patients were 18...
In Brief Purpose: To compare the outcomes achieved by a series of patients treated in stepwise fashion who presented with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Methods: this retrospective interventional case series, 127 patients, ranging age from 1 month to 81 months, 173 lacrimal systems diagnosed obstruction, were fashion. A treatment paradigm was evaluated that prescribed probing as an initial procedure regardless age. Those failed received balloon catheter dilation. and...
To evaluate the practice patterns among surgeons who treat melanomas of eyelid skin with respect to margins excision and look for possible correlation between incidence local regional recurrence distant metastasis.A retrospective survey members American Society Ophthalmic Plastic Reconstructive Surgery European yielded 44 cases. The patients' age, sex, date diagnosis, histologic classification melanoma, Breslow thickness, Clark level, location size excision, findings or metastasis were...
1. To test the hypothesis that NaCl increases blood pressure, while NaHCO3 does not, we measured effect of an NaHCO3-containing mineral water on pressure in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive (SHR-SP) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. We compared with equimolar amounts demineralized drinking six groups 20 rats each over 24 weeks. 2. consistently increased both SHR-SP WKY water, did not. 3. studied possible role sodium-regulating hormones. Sodium, potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase...
