Soft tissue modeling for the creation of a haptic simulator for training medical skills has been the focus of many attempts up to now. In soft tissue modeling the most important parameter considered is its being real-time, as well as its accuracy and sensitivity. In this paper, ANFIS approach is used to present a nonlinear model for soft tissue. The required data for training the neuro-fuzzy mo...

Introduction: Coverage of bone grafts is very important in reconstructive surgery. In edentulous alveolar ridges this coverage is particularly important for supporting dental prostheses. Here we present the case of a patient with a large deficient maxillary anterior region that was reconstructed with a bilateral palatal submucosal periosteal connective tissue flap: a soft tissue reserve for up...

Echinococcosis a zoonotic infection caused by echinococcusgranulosus is still a large extended public health problem in endemic regions. Primary echinococcosis may develop in almost any organ or tissue. The liver and the lungs are the most frequently involved organs. Primary hydatidosis of soft tissue involving foot, coccygeal region and breast is extremely rare even in endemic areas. After dia...
