This case report describes a modified connective tissue graft wall technique with enamel matrix derivative proposed to treat vertical bony defects. The surgical procedure consisted of coronally advanced flap porcine-derived acellular dermal placed below, acting as buccal soft the defect. patient showed defect between #12 and #13 horizontal bone loss deep infrabony component at mesial area canin...

OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of barrier membranes on sandwich bone augmentation (SBA) for the treatment of implant dehiscence defects. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-six implant-associated buccal dehiscence defects in 22 patients were treated according to the SBA concept - mineralized human cancellous allograft (inner layer), mineralized human cortical allograft (ou...

patients and methods previously recorded data of 231 patients who underwent surgical closure of vsd between january 2009 and january 2012 at the rajaie cardiovascular medical and research center were retrospectively reviewed. vsd surgical repair was performed using continues suturing technique in group a patients (n = 163, 70.6%) and interrupted suturing technique in group b patients (n = 68, 2...

As a kind of nondestructive testing (NDT) method, shear-horizontal (SH)-guided wave detection technology is widely used on an electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT). Although ultrasonic-guided waves perform well in defect location, it difficult to obtain detailed information about defects, and the low efficiency EMAT energy conversion still reduces EMAT’s performance. Therefore, this work, ...

Two patients with sectorial optic atrophy and homonymous, horizontal sectoranopia are described. Neuroradiological investigations localised the visual pathway lesion to the lateral geniculate body. The peculiar nature of the field defect and the optic atrophy appeared explicable in terms of ischaemia in the territory of the lateral choroidal artery.

To improve accuracy of electrically based measurements of defect densities and defect size distributions, we present a novel harp test structure. There, horizontal and vertical parallel lines will be placed inside a given boundary pad frame without using any additional active semiconductor devices. The enhanced 2D-permutation sequence provides that all neighborhood relationships of adjacent tes...

We present a 77-year-old female with recent myocardial infarction complicated by antero-apical ventricular septal defect (VSD) and quick development of low cardiac output. Using interrupted horizontal mattress sutures VSD closure was successfully performed on the beating heart. Transthoracic echocardiography at the four-month follow-up did not reveal residual VSD.
