Cataract Surgery Eyes with Zonular Weakness
IOP PXF is the most common identifiable cause of openangle glaucoma (OAG).2 Roughly 20% of cases of this disease are associated with PXF, and approximately 30% to 50% of patients with PXF develop glaucoma. Surgeons have come to recognize that uncomplicated phacoemulsification has a beneficial effect on IOP in eyes with OAG, and this effect extends to eyes with PXF. In a series of more than 1,00...

متن کاملNew method for fixation point of tibialis posterior tendon transfer
Background: The transfer of the tibialis posterior tendon to the dorsum of foot can restore the function of the paralyzed dorsiflexor muscles of the foot and ankle. In order to reduce the wound complication in the insertion site of tendon to bone by a plantar knop we used a new method of fixation by an absorbable screw inserted dorsally. Methods: we performed this operation on 15 patients in...
متن کاملCapsular Weakness around Breast Implant: A Non-Recognized Complication
Capsular contraction is a frequent complication following breast augmentation. On the other hand, capsular weakness, a not widely recognized complication, may occur around the implant. A weak capsule allows the migration of the prosthesis to the lateral region of the thoracic region or inferiorly, towards the abdomen, due to gravitational forces. The cause of capsular weakness remains unresolve...
