Dupuytren's contracture (DC) is an inflammatory fibrosis characterized by fibroproliferative disorders of the palmar aponeurosis, for which there no effective treatment. Although several genome-wide association studies have identified risk alleles associated with DC, functional linkage between these and pathogenesis remains elusive. We here focused on two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs16879765 rs17171229, in secreted frizzled related protein 4 (SFRP4). investigated SRFP4 IL-6...
Recent studies suggest that blood flow changes in the median nerve may help confirm a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Herein, we examined utility superb microvascular imaging (SMI), new ultrasonographic (US) technique for visualizing flow, detecting differences between CTS patients and healthy controls. We performed retrospective analysis 28 hands with suspected CTS. Patients received both conduction US examinations. Ten volunteers were enrolled as control group. The compression...
Abstract Background Fibroma of tendon sheath (FTS) is a rare benign soft tissue tumor that often occurs in the upper extremities. It manifests as slow-growing mass, without tenderness or spontaneous pain. FTS most commonly people aged 20–40 years and extremely young children. Because presents with atypical physical imaging findings, it might be misdiagnosed another such ganglion cyst tenosynovial giant cell (TSGCT). Although marginal resection usually performed, high rate local recurrence...
The dynamics of a viscoelastic Maxwell fluid is studied in partially filled cylinder rotating around horizontal axis. At low rotational velocity, the behaves same manner as viscous fluid. A thin film pulled up from edge bump at bottom cylinder, and it covers inner wall completely. As result, steady state coexistence When velocity increased, formation fails rolls steadily cylinder. This failure has never been observed case higher starts to oscillate Then, again with further increase velocity....
Treatment of subacute and chronic static scapholunate instability remains challenging. We aimed to determine 5- 10-year outcomes dorsal intercarpal ligament capsulodesis with interosseous repair for instability.Six patients underwent between 2011 2015, 5 them were followed at least years after surgery. The clinical radiological results retrospectively investigated. All male, the mean age surgery was 37 (range, 21-47 years). period from injury 26.2 months 2-113 months). surgical procedure a...
Bifid nose is a rare congenital abnormality and its surgical correction difficult. We represent case of bifid with mild nasal deformity without cerebral or lip deformity. performed rhinoplasty kind the forked flap at one year age appearance improved.
Postoperative ulnar neuropathy is still an unresolved complication in patients undergoing plate fixation of distal humerus fractures. We hypothesized that decreased blood flow to the nerve due intraoperative procedures important factor development postoperative neuropathy. herein report three cases fractures which soft tissues surrounding were preserved as much possible and finally not transferred anteriorly. Case Presentation. A 76-year-old woman, 82-year-old 34-year-old woman underwent for...
