INTRODUCTION To determine if the upper part of the lower segment of the uterus is a better site for cesarean incision then the traditionally used lower end. METHODS This is a case-control study (1:1 ratio) conducted from 1(st) October 2012- 30(th) September 2013 observed between transverse incision at the upper part of the lower segment versus traditional lower segment of the uterus. Two hund...

Radius and ulna shaft fractures, also known as both bone forearm are common fractures caused due to direct or indirect trauma. Open reduction internal fixation with plating by two separate incisions is a standard widely accepted mode of fixation. We report case where we approached the fracture single dorsal incision. An eighty years old female had radius Gustilo Anderson type open injury. manag...

Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare inherited human genetic disorder characterized by UV sensitivity, developmental abnormalities and premature aging. The cellular and molecular phenotypes of CS include increased sensitivity to oxidative and UV-induced DNA lesions. The CSB protein is thought to play a pivotal role in transcription-coupled repair and CS-B cells are defective in the repair of the tr...

Direct true lumen cannulation through aortic incision for cardiopulmonary bypass during surgery acute Stanford type A dissection was reported by Jacob, followed Conzelmann who used a Mersilene tourniquet to snag the ascending aorta. Since 2013, Samurai cannulation, modified version of direct has been in at Kitasato University Hospital. Here, this surgical technique is described. Central Message...

STUDY OBJECTIVES We set out to determine whether there is a difference in postoperative pain and recovery after the patient undergoes the axillary muscle-sparing incision (ie, muscle-sparing thoracotomy [MT]) vs the modified posterolateral incision (ie, posterolateral thoracotomy [PT]). DESIGN Analysis of a database originally collected to determine the effect of the timing of epidural analge...

The objective of this research study is to identify quality indicators of cesarean deliveries and determine their relationship to neonatal and maternal morbidity and mortality in one high volume maternity hospital in Lilongwe, Malawi. Demographic, perioperative, and postoperative data were collected on all cesarean deliveries over three months. Indicators of quality (antibiotic administration, ...

BACKGROUND Descending influences from the rostral medial medulla (RMM) contribute to secondary hyperalgesia in persistent inflammatory, neuropathic, and visceral pain models. The current study examined if descending inhibition or facilitation from the RMM modulates primary and secondary hyperalgesia after incision in the rat hind limb. METHODS Bilateral RMM lesions were produced using the som...

purpose : to introduce a small incision technique of fascia lata (fl) harvesting for frontalis suspension blepharoptosis procedure. methods : a skin incision was made in a line between the lateral condyle of the tibia and the anterior superior iliac crest, starting 4- 5 cm above the knee and extending upward 2- 2.5 cm . approximately 8 cm superior to the first incision, a second skin incision w...
