ABSTRACT Mexico’s current export-led economy arose from the adoption of a market-driven model based in conditions technological disarticulation separating dominant transnational firms national industrial base. This determined that, contrast to Verdoorn’s analysis, crucial manufacturing sector would function not as motor-force inducing process autonomous development by accelerating productivity ...

Subungual melanoma is a distinct subtype of cutaneous malignant arising from structures within the nail apparatus, which relatively rare. Histological diagnosis most definitive means identifying such lesion and can prevent significant morbidity mortality. Suspicious signs to be aware are pigmentation folds (Hutchinson\'s sign). Early detection essential improve treatment outcomes prognosis. We ...

OBJECTIVE Right ventricular disarticulation (RVD) is an accepted procedure in the treatment of ventricular tachycardia of right ventricular origin. We set out to review the long-term outcomes with RVD at our institution for patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) or refractory tachycardia. A renewed interest in this operation has come about in patients unable to tolerate...

The use of a total femoral prosthesis can offer a realistic alternative to amputation or disarticulation. The limited indications for such a prosthesis in the surgical management of primary bone tumours and pathological fractures still exist. In this specialised clinic there is an increased need to replace the entire femur where repeated procedures have failed, from loss of bone stock with infe...

Despite widespread use of gentamicin beads in the treatment of chronic infections of bone and soft tissue, no serious complications have been reported. This report describes a rupture of the femoral vein which occurred during the attempted removal of a chain of beads after radical excision of a chronically discharging Girdlestone arthroplasty. The patient later had a disarticulation at the hip....

The process of crop domestication began 10,000 years ago in the transition of early humans from hunter/gatherers to pastoralists/farmers. Recent research has revealed the identity of some of the main genes responsible for domestication. Two of the major domestication events in barley were (i) the failure of the spike to disarticulate and (ii) the six-rowed spike. The former mutation increased g...

Patients with short congenital amputations below the elbow often function as if they have had a disarticulation of the elbow. We have reviewed the results in six patients who had lengthening of such stumps by the Ilizarov technique to improve the fitting of prostheses. The mean lengthening was 5.6 cm (3.4 to 8.4), and in two patients flexion contractures of the elbows were corrected simultaneou...

Steward-Treves syndrome is a cutaneous angiosarcoma that usually appears after long evolution of a lymphoedema after mastectomy for mammary neoplasia associated with an axillary dissection. This is a rare disease develop most of the time in upper arm and often confounded with cutaneous metastasis. Only the biopsy and immunohistochemical study confirm the diagnosis. The treatment is surgical and...
