Background: Vascular-dependent necrosis of the nipple-areola complex following reduction mammaplasty is still present. Concerning anatomy, there a lack literature comparing vasculature different complex–bearing pedicles in detail. Including six arterial sources supplying breast, this anatomical work intends to clarify impact and vascular reliability pedicles. Methods: Microdissections anterior chest walls vessel filling with dye were performed examine architecture arteries breast their...
To develop strategies that may assist the surgeon to prevent and manage severe bleeding complications after adenoidectomy tonsillectomy.Retrospective.Expert reports for malpractice lawsuits or professional boards were reviewed. The review was restricted "deaths" "permanent generalized neurological deficiencies."Forty-three cases matched our search criteria, including 32 deaths. Adenoidectomy (2) associated with immediate because of direct vascular injury resulting in one death. Tonsillectomy...
To investigate the intracochlear micromorphology with regard to frequent patterns of cochlear electrode insertion trauma.Cochlear implantation is a widely accepted treatment for deafness and high-grade sensorineural hearing loss. Although device methods are continuously optimized, damage structures due finding in temporal bone studies. Reduction insertional trauma important preservation residual on background increasing numbers implant recipients.This study was performed histologic specimens...
Using modern implants, even complex radial head and neck fractures can often be reconstructed. However, metaphyseal comminution is associated with delayed bone healing an increased risk for loss of reduction. Hence, this biomechanical in-vitro study intended to evaluate the mechanical stability a graft from ipsilateral proximal ulna in plate fixation comminuted fractures. Osteotomies at level 3 mm defect were created on 20 fresh-frozen radius specimens simulate comminution. Fixation was...
Anatomical embalming forms a mainstay in the provision of teaching materials based on human post-mortem tissues. As consequence regulations worldwide to minimize use formaldehyde due its harmful nature, effective measures must be taken application anatomy laboratory. This study aimed identify commonalities among protocols used Austrian, German and Swiss anatomies reduce usage provide foundation for joint accreditation. Survey data all procedures, technologies chemicals related were collected...
SummaryTissue preparation for paraffin embedding is a crucial step in histological processes. Standardized methods are required to ensure the accuracy of research and clinical diagnostic results. However, standardization particularly challenging long luminal tissues. Conventional such as single/serial sections Swiss roll, often have drawbacks including risk missing or misaligned sections, excess consumption materials, high workload. They also require significant expertise difficult...
Study Design Comparison was made of the accuracy a pedicle bore performed by conventional technique and using an individual template in lumbar spine cadavers. Objectives The fixation screws necessitates high amount surgical skill experience to avoid lesions nerves vessels. By templates cadaver study goal prove efficiency this less-invasive image-guided surgery comparison with fluoroscopy computed tomographic (CT) scan. Summary Background Data Based on three-dimensional models generated from...
