Scoliosis is a three dimensional deformity, and brace correction should be 3D too. There lack of knowledge the effect braces, particularly in sagittal transverse plane. The aim this study to analyse Sforzesco Brace correction, through all parameters provided by Eos imaging system.Design: This cross sectional from prospective database started March 2003. Participants: 16 AIS girls (mean age 14.01) treatment, with EOS x-rays, at start, after 1 month out first 4 months treatment. Outcome...
There are many fibrin-derived sealants used as topical haemostatic agents in surgical procedures. Fibrin usually non-autologous derivatives or animal derivatives, with the exception of Vivostat®, an autologous fibrin sealant derived from patients own blood. We present our experience on use Vivostat® skull base closures 20 operated at Otorhinolaryngology Unit Hospital Ospedali Riuniti Villa Sofia - Cervello Palermo. All postoperative were placed anti-trendeleburg position for 48 hours. After...
5132 Background: In a previous study (Marinaccio et al. Proc.ASCO 2003;Abstr1952) we assumed that pretreatment normalization of mild anemia with epoetin alfa could improve the outcome in patients epithelial ovarian cancer. The aim this larger trial was to understand better influence recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) on cancer showing before undergoing surgery and chemotherapy. Methods: Between 1999 2003, 42 (Hgb 10.6–11.9 g/dL) secondary advanced were randomized receive (21 pts.) or...
Abstract Introduction Robotic neck dissection surgery allows less invasiveness to significantly improve the aesthetic impact even though it does not compromise principles of radical cancer procedure. Objective The aim our work is describe personal experience with robotic surgery. Methods A retrospective study was conducted by analyzing 10 patients subjected a In period from August 2012 December 2018, these have been treated exclusively lateral-cervical dissection. Five them were...
Nowadays, the utility of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is well established in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The incidence NPC West population, especially children, very low. We present first Italian case a pediatric patient with followed up
This article illustrates the replication of asthma and COPD conditions in a laboratory setting potential applications this methodology.
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a significant health problem. It affects 5%–12% of the general population. The causes that underlie onset CRS are not yet well known. However, many factors may contribute to its onset, such as environmental and host’s condition. Medical treatment mainly uses local corticosteroids, nasal irrigation, antibiotics. In recent years, new therapeutic approach employs use probiotics emerged. Probiotics have been extensively studied therapy for...
One of the most important complications OSAHS in children is growth delay. The aim this study was to investigate changes clinical body growth, and laboratory with after adeno-tonsillar surgery.In our study, among 102 suffering from sleep-disordered breathing, 70 met inclusion criteria because they were affected by adenotonsillar hypertrophy. In total, 96 hypertrophy (55 males 41 females) underwent nocturnal cardiorespiratory monitoring Embletta MPR, for post-operative 24 hours. Patients...
Method Design: observational prospective study on consecutive patients. Participants: the first 12 female (age 13.07±2.05) patients, with idiopathic scoliosis (41.58°±14.52° Cobb), in Sforzesco brace treatment, who had orthogonal synchronous AP and LL low dose EOS x-rays examination, before treatment start (PRE), (IN) after four months of at immediate take-off (OUT).
