Bioabsorbable osteofixation devices in craniosynostosis. Clinical experience in 216 cases.
INTRODUCTION The pursuit of bone fixation systems capable of affording appropriate stability for osteosynthesis has gone through several stages from the use of metal wires, plates, and screws to the current stage of bioabsorbable systems. In our Pediatric Neurosurgery Service and Craniofacial Surgery Unit we began employing these systems in June 1997. The object of this paper is to present a re...
متن کاملBioabsorbable osteofixation for orthognathic surgery
Orthognathic surgery requires stable fixation for uneventful healing of osteotomized bony segments and optimal remodeling. Titanium plates and screws have been accepted as the gold standard for rigid fixation in orthognathic surgery. Although titanium osteofixation is the most widely used approach, the use of bioabsorbable devices has been increasing recently. Biodegradation of bioabsorbable de...

متن کاملPulsatile Assist: Clinical Experience in 100 Cases
In this day and age of cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), the perfusionist strives to maintain or mimic normal physiologic parameters such as blood gases, electrolytes, blood flows and so on. The surgical team employes such myocardial protection techniques as topical cooling and cardioplegia. The anaesthesiologist endeavours to maintain hemodynamic and respiratory paramet...
