In modern endodontics, vital pulp therapy (VPT) has been considered an ultra-conservative treatment modality. Based on the level of pulp preservation, VPT includes stepwise excavation, indirect pulp capping (IDPC), direct pulp capping (DPC), miniature pulpotomy (MP), partial/Cvek pulpotomy and coronal/complete pulpotomy (CP). The present article reviews the treatment outcomes of 94 permanent te...

Pulpotomy is a conservative therapy performed to remove the inflamed coronal portion of the pulp and preserve the vitality of the remaining radicular pulp. This article reports two cases of immature permanent mandibular molars with clinical signs of pulp vitality and radiographic images of periapical bone rarefaction, which were treated with calcium hydroxide pulpotomy. In Case 1, pulpotomy was...

The choice of therapeutic strategy for intracranial dissecting aneurysm is often based on radiographic features, including characteristic geometry (e.g., irregular stenosis, segmental stenosis, aneurysm formation [pearl-and-string sign]), irregular fusiform or aneurysmal dilation, double lumen, and tapering occlusion. However, there is often a discrepancy between preoperative radiographic data ...

UNLABELLED The aim of the present study was to compare, clinically and radiographically, the mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to formocresol (FC) when used as medicaments in pulpotomized vital human primary molars. METHODS The sample consisted of 120 primary molars, all teeth were treated with the same conventional pulpotomy technique. Sixty molars received FC and 60 received MTA throughout a...

Background: Septic arthritis (SA) in children is an acute inflammatory disease of the joints. If not treated promptly, it could become a surgical emergency. The incidence Europe approximately 2–7 per 100,000 children. aim this systematic review was to investigate which these treatments—arthrocentesis, arthrotomy, and arthroscopy—provides better results when use them. Methods: Three independent ...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study is to evaluate a single surgeon's short, intermediate, and long-term clinical, functional, and radiographic outcomes with a trapeziectomy with flexor carpi radialis (FCR) suspension arthroplasty without tendon interposition (LRSA). METHODS Twenty-one patients underwent 26 FCR suspension arthroplasties without tendon interposition by a single senior ...
