AIM To evaluate the incidence of Poly Implant Prosthése (PIP) rupture as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the prevalence of the detected signs and the potential correlation with breast carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS 67 patients with silicone breast implants and clinical indications for breast MRI were evaluated for a total of 125 implants: 40 (32%) PIP in 21 patients and 85 non-...

PURPOSE To compare the intraoperative safety of two techniques of capsulorhexis for intumescent white cataracts: traditional one-stage continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis and two-stage continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis. METHODS This prospective comparative randomized study included two groups: the 1-CCC group (11 patients) received traditional one-stage continuous curvilinear capsulorhexi...

purpose: to compare low volume transconjunctival anterior peribulbar anesthesia with transcutaneous posterior peribulbar anesthesia in phacoemulsification. methods: patients scheduled for phacoemulsification were randomly divided into two groups: in first group 5ml of 2% lidocaine was injected transcutaneously in the posterior orbital space. in the second group, 2ml of 5% lidocaine was injected...

In this technique for managing posterior polar cataract, extreme care is taken not to overpressurize the anterior chamber or capsular bag to prevent posterior capsule rupture. Minimal hydrodissection and hydrodelineation are performed. The nucleus is extracted using minimal ultrasound energy. Viscodissection is used as a primary technique to mobilize the epinucleus and cortex. A protective laye...

Recurrent traumatic anterior shoulder instability following surgical repair may be associated with implant failure and an array of capsulolabral pathology including separation of the labrum (Bankart lesion), humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligaments (HAGL lesion), and capsular rupture. We detail a previously unreported case of a HAGL lesion occurring in a shoulder with an intact arthrosopi...

Despite the increased popularity of arthroscopic techniques for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability, several patient populations appear to remain at high-risk for recurrent instability after arthroscopic stabilization. Contact athletes, patients with bony defects of the humeral head and/or glenoid, those with atraumatic instability or capsular deficiency, and individuals who have sus...

Diabetic cataracts are common in diabetic dogs and lead to blindness lens-induced uveitis, the complications of which may need remove eyeball. The objectives this study were provide a clinical ophthalmological characteristics cataract dogs, describe pre-, intra- postoperative phacoemulsification identify relationships between different parameters phacoemulsification, types complications, outcom...

This paper presents a hydrodissection technique performed with high-speed pulse injection of only 0.1 cc liquid and assess its efficacy, safety, and the level of reduction in posterior capsule rupture complications in phacoemulsification cataract surgery. The kinetic energy of moving objects is directly proportional to the mass and to the square of its velocity. The high energy obtained by high...
