BACKGROUND Extended Soft tissue defect of leg including middle and distal parts always has been a challenge for many plastic surgeons and also a frustrated problem for patients and families. To introduce the use of the soleus muscle and reverse sural flaps as synchronous surgical treatment alternative of the leg bone exposure with large soft tissue defect, this study was conducted. METHODS T...

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is an osseous growth dis-order, producing immature bone and characte-rized by the replacement of normal bone with fibro-osseous connective tissue. It is a bone dys-plasia that has the potential to cause significant cosmetic and functional disturbances, particularly in the craniofacial skeleton. Cra-niofacial fibrous dysplasia is one of the three types of polyostotic fibro...

Purpose. Guided tissue reconstruction can be performed to restore the supporting structure of a previously lost tooth, which, in addition maintaining beauty, preserves function tooth patient. Materials and Methods. In this review, Scopus, PubMed, MEDLINE databases were searched using keywords “biocompatible materials,” “membrane,” “bone regeneration,” “tissue reconstruction,” “dental biomateria...

Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare neoplasm of soft tissue which usually arises in the respiratory tract, nasal cavity, sinuses and nasopharynx. Multiple extramedullary plasmacytomas are extremely rare, especially those that are not associated with multiple myeloma.We describe multiple primary EMP in a 37 year old man, without involvement of bone or bone marrow. EMP usually has a ...

Background Mandibular continuity defects occur after tumor resection, maxillofacial injury, or osteomyelitis. Despite the current availability of a plethora of treatment modalities, bone substitutes, and various clinical adjuncts, an exact reconstructive recapitulation of large bony defects continues to be beyond reach. In this clinical pilot study, we report a novel method for reconstruction ...

The impact of obesity upon bone metabolism is controversial since both beneficial or harmful effects have been reported. Bone remodeling modulated by the central nervous system through cytokines, hormones and neuromodulators. present study aimed to evaluate evoked bilateral retroperitoneal white adipose tissue (rWAT) denervation (Dnx) mineral in an experimental model rats. Male Wistar rats were...

Introduction:The use of beta emitters is one of the effective methods for palliation of bone metastasis. The risk of normal tissue toxicity should be evaluated in the bone pain palliation treatment. Methods: In this study, the Monte Carlo simulation code MCNPX was used for simulation a bone phantom model consisted of bone marrow, bone and soft tissue. Spe...

silver nanoparticles (ag nps) have been widely used as new potent antimicrobial agents in cosmetic and hygienic products. present study compares the tissue levels of ag nps in different organs of guiana pigs quantitatively after dermal application and analysis the morphological changes and pathological abnormalities on the basis of the ag nps tissue levels. before toxicological assessments,the ...
