Application of Oscillating Saw for Lumbar en Bloc Laminectomy: A Case Series
Background: An oscillating bone saw is rarely used to perform laminectomy. The purpose of this study was to describea relatively quick and harmless technique for multilevel laminectomy in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) usingan oscillating bone saw to find out how this instrument affects the time of surgery and rate of complications.Methods: This prospective study w...
متن کاملOutcome of single level instrumented posterior lumbar interbody fusion using corticocancellous laminectomy bone chips
BACKGROUND Interbody fusion surgery has been considered by many to be a treatment of choice for instability in lumbar degenerative disc disease. A posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) has the advantages of spinal canal decompression, anterior column reconstruction, and reduction of the sagittal slips from a single posterior approach. The PLIF using double cage was a standard practice till m...
متن کاملSilicon saw-tooth refractive lens for high-energy X-rays made using a diamond saw
Silicon is a material well suited for refractive lenses operating at high X-ray energies (>50 keV), particularly if implemented in a single-crystal form to minimize small-angle scattering. A single-crystal silicon saw-tooth refractive lens, fabricated by a dicing process using a thin diamond wheel, was tested with 115 keV X-rays, giving an ideal 17 microm line focus width in a long focal length...
متن کاملMicro-computed tomographic evaluation of canal retreatments performed by undergraduate students using different techniques
Objectives This study evaluated the amount of remaining root canal filling materials after retreatment procedures performed by undergraduate students using manual, rotary, and reciprocating techniques through micro-computed tomographic analysis. The incidence of instrument fracture and the instrumentation time were also evaluated. Materials and Methods Thirty maxillary single rooted teeth wer...
متن کاملReciprocating Bone Saw: Effect of Blade Speed on Cutting Rate
Power reciprocating saws are used in surgical procedures to cut bone. Improved cutting rates are desirable in order to reduce operative time and improve patient outcome. A fixture was developed to test the effect of blade speed on cutting rate of bovine cortical bone. It was hypothesized that the volumetric cutting rate would increase in a linear manner for a fixed stroke length and a constant ...
