Use of an ultrasonic bone curette (Sonopet) in orbital and oculoplastic surgery.
The use of the Sonopet Omni, an ultrasonic bone curette, has been discussed for ear, nose, and throat, neurosurgical, and maxillofacial procedures. Its use in oculoplastic and orbital surgery has not been extensively described. The Sonopet has a number of advantages that impart particular utility when operating in the orbit. We present three illustrative cases highlighting the unique advantages...
متن کاملApplication of ultrasonic bone curette in endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery: technical note.
Background Endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) of the skull base often requires extensive bone work in proximity to critical neurovascular structures. Objective To demonstrate the application of an ultrasonic bone curette during EES. Methods Ten patients with skull base lesions underwent EES from September 2011 to April 2012 at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Most of the bone work w...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasonic curette-assisted removal of frontal osteomas
Indications for endoscopic resection of fronto-ethmoidal osteomas have been progressively expanded thanks to optimization of surgical exposure and the development of dedicated instruments. Curved cutting drills are still suboptimal to treat hard osseous neoplasms of the frontal sinus. We present two patients affected by frontal osteoma treated with an endoscopic procedure using an ultrasonic bo...
متن کاملBone regrowth after surgical decompression for lumbar spinal stenosis.
We reviewed 40 patients treated surgically for lumbar stenosis at an average time of 8.6 years after operation. In 32, total laminectomy had been performed and in eight bilateral laminotomy, both at one or more levels. Of the 16 patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis, ten had had a concomitant spinal fusion. Patients were assigned to one of four groups according to the amount of bone regr...
متن کاملHarvesting Mandibular Ramus Bone Grafts Using Ultrasonic Surgical Device: Report of 20 Cases
Successful osseointegration of the dental implants requires sufficient bone volume surrounding implant site. The mandibular ramus is considered reliable donor site for reconstructing alveolar ridge defects prior to dental implant placement. The aim of this study was to present the clinical efficiency of using ultrasound surgery for harvesting mandibular ramus bone graft. 20 patients (10 male, 1...
