Pelvic inclination is difficult to control on a standard radiograph of the pelvis and has direct influence appearance acetabular version. By defining normal range distance between symphysis sacrococcygeal joint 86 anteroposterior radiographs pelves technique was developed evaluate pelvic inclination. A statistically significant correlation this shown in four cadaver pelves. Acetabular retroversion signs (cross-over, posterior wall signs) were evaluated from cadavers (two females, two males)...
Abstract Background It has been hypothesized that bacterial biofilms on breast implants may cause chronic inflammation leading to capsular contracture. The association between of removed and contracture was investigated. Methods Breast explanted 2006 2010 at five participating centres for plastic reconstructive surgery were investigated by sonication. Bacterial cultures derived from sonication correlated with patient, surgical implant characteristics, the degree Results study included 121 84...
Since the first reports of induction adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) into neuronal and glial cell phenotypes, expectations have increased regarding their use in tissue engineering applications for nerve repair. Cell adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) is a basic feature survival, differentiation, migration Schwann (SC) during regeneration, fibronectin laminin are two key molecules this process. Interaction between ECM SC-like differentiated ASC (dASC) could potentially improve...
Abstract Introduction A range of behavioral testing paradigms have been developed for the research central and peripheral nerve injuries with help small animal models. Following any repair strategy, improved functional outcome may be most important evidence axon regeneration. novel automated gait analysis system, CatWalk ™ , can measure dynamic as well static patterns animals. Of interest in detecting recovery are particular parameters, coordination measures, intensity animals paw prints....
Autologous fat grafting is a popular technique in plastic surgery. A mechanical processing method used to facilitate injection. No study has investigated whether this process affects cell quality and preservation of biological functionality. This analyzed the influence quick through two interconnected small-diameter syringes ("shuffling") on both structure viability tissue, viability, clonogenicity, differentiation freshly isolated stromal vascular fraction.Lipoaspiration was performed six...
Background: Prepectoral (PP) immediate implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is gaining popularity over the retropectoral (RP) technique. This study aims to compare complication rates across different body mass index (BMI) groups in patients undergoing PP or RP IBBR. Methods: A monocentric retrospective analysis was conducted on who underwent mastectomy and IBBR from January 2018 December 2023. Preoperative characteristics, BMI, type of procedure, RR implant placement, postoperative...
An ideal substitute to treat a nerve gap has not been found. Initially, silicone conduits were employed. Later, fabricated from collagen or polyesters carbonates. More recently, it shown that bioresorbable material, poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), can enhance repair. The present investigation shows the use of fibrin as conduit guide regeneration and bridge defects. In this study we prepared investigated novel made glue. Using rodent sciatic injury model (10-mm gap), compared extent through new...
In aesthetic clinical practice, surgical outcome is best measured by patient satisfaction and quality of life. For many years, there has been a lack validated questionnaires. Recently, the FACE-Q was introduced, authors present largest series face-lift patients evaluated with longest follow-up to date.Two hundred consecutive were identified who underwent high-superficial musculoaponeurotic system face lifts, or without additional facial rejuvenation procedures, between January 2005 2015....
