Evidence from the CURE Children's Hospital of Uganda (CCHU) suggests that treatment for hydrocephalus in infants can be effective and sustainable a developing country. This model has not been broadly supported or implemented due part to absence data on economic burden disease any assessment cost benefit treatment. The authors used modeling estimate annual treating at CCHU. These results were then extrapolated potential impact all cases sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).The conducted retrospective...
Global cleft surgery missions have provided much-needed care to millions of poor patients worldwide. Still, surgical capacity in low- and middle-income countries is generally inadequate. Through missions, global has largely ascribed a vertical model healthcare delivery, which disease specific, tends deliver services parallel to, but not necessarily within, the local system. The been used address infectious diseases as well humanitarian emergencies. By contrast, horizontal for delivery focus...
Bioresorbable plating systems have been more recently developed as an alternative to metal osteofixation and can be used for craniosynostosis operations. To date, the bioresorbable materials clinically with excellent safety outcomes good patient without major plate-induced complications. In this report, we present 2 cases in which failed degrade following operations a chronic manner mandating removal revision. We also provide review of existing literature regarding fixation evidence failure...
Background: The development of surgery in low- and middle-income countries has been limited by a belief that it is too expensive to be sustainable. However, subspecialist surgical care can provide substantial clinical economic benefits low-resource settings. goal this study describe the impact recurrent short-term plastic trips countries. Methods: authors conducted retrospective review clinic operative logbooks from Hands Across World's experience Ecuador. calculated disability-adjusted...
SUMMARY Background An inverse relationship between healthcare utilization and distance to care has been previously described. The purpose of this study was evaluate effect related emergency essential surgical in central Haiti. Methods We conducted a retrospective review operative logbooks from the Clinique Bon Sauveur Cange, Haiti, 2008 2010. used Geographic Information Systems map home locations all patients.

Osteomas are benign bony lesions that can occur throughout the craniofacial skeleton. Surgical excision be an effective treatment, as recurrence is relatively uncommon. Outside of incomplete resection, causes poorly documented, especially in pediatric population. Exchange cranioplasty autologous reconstructive surgical option for patients all ages, and it treatment large calvarial osteomas. Recurrent site have not been well described literature, with only 3 documented reports. In this study,...

Sagittal synostosis is the most common form of single suture synostosis. It often results in characteristic calvarial deformities, including a long, narrow head, frontal bossing, bullet-shaped occiput, and an anteriorly placed vertex. Several methods for correcting phenotypic deformities have been described, each with their own advantages challenges. In this study, we describe modification Melbourne method total remodeling scaphocephaly.We conducted retrospective review all consecutive...
Background/Purpose: Telehealth has evolved over the past several decades to address varying medical needs. Most recently, it been widely utilized as a result of COVID-19 pandemic. previous studies have not performed in-depth analyses patient satisfaction with telehealth technologies. This project investigated abrupt implementation telemedicine within pediatric surgical subspecialties during Materials and Methods: We conducted single-center review determine patients' early stages Surveys were...
