An abrupt bleeding of the anteriorly- displaced sigmoid sinus: a rare complication of myringoplasty
Background The location of the sigmoid sinus within the mastoid cavity is quite variable. An anteriorly- displaced vertical segment of the sigmoid sinus constitutes an uncommon but dangerous anatomical variation that surgeons rarely encounter during surgery. In this variation, the sigmoid sinus lays underneath a very thin bony flap, which makes it easily damaged. Thus, an abrupt fatal bleeding ...
متن کاملCOCHLEAR IMPLANTATION IN IRAN

متن کاملManagement of anteriorly located C1-C2 neurofibromata.
The authors discuss their recent experience with anteriorly located C1-C2 neurofibromata in five patients with cervical myelopathy and magnetic resonance scans consistent with intradural extramedullary masses in this region. Surgery was performed using a posterolateral approach with microscopic intradural exploration. Gross total intradural tumor removal was achieved in all cases. Improvement i...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Cochlear Size in Insertion of Electrode Depth in Patients with Cochlear Implantation evaluated by CT-Scan
Background Cochlear implant surgery is an invasive procedure for patients with bilateral Sensorineural hearing loss and may cause some risks such as cochlear damage. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of cochlear measures obtained by computed tomography (CT) scan in predicting depth of cochlear implant insertion. Materials and Methods This study was conducted in a retrospective and cross-se...
