We introduce a certain integrability condition for the reciprocal of Jacobian determinant which guarantees local homeomorphism property quasiregular mappings with small inner dilatation. This turns out to be sharp in planar case. also show that every branch point mapping dilatation is Lebesgue differential matrix mapping.

When a woman with mullerian agenesis presents blind or absent vagina, management options include surgical vaginoplasty non self dilatation. Vaginal dilation should be the first line of agenesis. Because need for motivated, mature patients and long term dilatation follow up, gynecologists usually go vaginoplasty. We tried novel approach to nonsurgical vagina in cases injected normal saline into ...

background and objective: the aim of this study was to analyze our indications, surgical procedures, and clinical outcomes of patients undergoing reoperation after surgical correction of tetralogy of fallot (tof). methods: thirty seven consecutive patients who underwent reoperation late after intra-cardiac repair of tof within a period of 10 years were assessed. results: the most common indicat...

To assess the value of pneumatic dilatation of the cardia, 63 patients with achalasia have undergone a total of 107 Rider-Moeller dilatations over the last six years. There was a marked improvement in swallowing immediately after dilatation in all but two patients, there were no deaths attributable to the procedure and serious complications were rare (1.6% of patients). The first 50 cases have ...

AIM To evaluate the use of anorectal manometry to select patients for controlled anal dilatation. METHODOLOGY A prospective study was performed using anorectal manometry on all patients with chronic anal fissure who did not have a good response to conservative treatment. Those with increased anal resting pressure were treated with controlled anal dilatation using a two valved anuscope. A seco...

BACKGROUND The treatment of urethral stricture in female patients is through dilatation of the urethra by tubes of increasing diameter. There are two main methods: intermittent dilatation and on demand dilatation. OBJECTIVES The main aim of this study was to compare the results of these two methods, and to determine the best one. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this clinical trial study, we reviewe...

BACKGROUND Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is related to aortic dilatation, but patterns/rates are conflicting with no comparison among aneurysms of different aetiology. We sought to define ascending aorta dilatation patterns/progression rates in BAV versus other aortopathies (Marfan syndrome (MFS), degenerative aortopathy (DA)). DESIGN AND SETTING Retrospective, observational study. Aortic dilat...
