PURPOSE To rebuild the three-dimensional (3-D) model of the anterior segment by high-speed swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) and evaluate the repeatability of measurement for the parameters of capsule-intraocular lens (C-IOL) complex. METHODS Twenty-two pseudophakic eyes from 22 patients were enrolled. Three continuous SSOCT measurements were performed in all eyes and the tomo...

shoulder movements are a complex motor act, controlled by many muscles attached to thescapula and the vertebral column. these muscles are innervating by motoneurons (mns) located in theventral horn of the spinal cord. motoneurons of the ventral horn are arranged such that several groups ofmns can be distinguished in a transverse section through the spinal cord. the anatomical or functionalimpli...

non-penetrating head injuries associated with skull base fractures can lead to the development of pneumocephalus upon airs ingress, which leads its course in the subarachnoid space. intracerebral air accumulation is rare and ensuses when a paranasal sinus fracture is associated with a ensues when a paranasal sinus fracture is associated with a nearby parenchymal contusion. a 25-year old man is ...

myocardial bridging with systolic compression of the left anterior descending coronary artery (lad) may be associated with myocardial ischemia. in symptomatic myocardial bridging unresponsive to medical treatment, surgical unroofing of the left lad can be performed. little information is available about the long-term prognosis of patients with this coronary anomaly after the surgical unroofing,...

purpose : cataract surgery is the most common ocular surgery worldwide and in modern era of phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens (pc iol) implantation, refractive aspects of surgery is as important as the surgery itself. after the iol implantation, the anterior chamber depth (acd) is increased and the iridiocorneal angle is widened. these changes should be considered for ...

background the optimal management of hemodynamically stable asymptomatic patients with anterior abdominal stab wounds (aasws) remains controversial. the goal is to identify and treat injuries in a safe cost-effective manner. common evaluation strategies are local wound exploration (lwe), diagnostic peritoneal lavage (dpl), serial clinical assessment (scas) and computed tomography (ct) imaging. ...

BACKGROUND Although surgery for aneurysms of the upper basilar complex is generally accomplished by a pterional or subtemporal approach, both techniques have disadvantages. Therefore, attempts have been made to combine both the approaches, such as an anterior temporal approach, which exposes the anterior aspect of the temporal lobe during standard fronto-temporal craniotomy. However, in all the...

Uveitic glaucoma (UG) is secondary glaucoma, present as a clinical challenge in both diagnosis and management.We report a case of complex UG, which initially presented as pupillary block and rupture of the anterior lens capsule. We performed cataract extraction with preservation of posterior capsule. Then, the case turned to aphakic malignant glaucoma. We performed anterior vitrectomy with post...
