In this issue, we explore the role of biologics in spinal fusion. The treatment disorders has been revolutionized over last 25 years with introduction to enhance bone density preparation for surgery and promote bony arthrodesis fusion surgery. use these products become even more important era minimally invasive surgery, where graft surface area is at a premium.Use osteobiologics known migration...

Severe coronary artery bypass graft disease occurs at a rate of approximately 16%-31% within the first year of surgery. Clinical and laboratory variables, including postoperative lipid profiles closest to the 1-year follow-up, lipoprotein(a) levels, and homocysteine levels, were assessed as predictors of early (< or = 1 year) symptomatic coronary artery bypass graft disease. Of 77 living consec...

The left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is the most commonly used arterial graft for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, and occluding the LIMA side branches during surgery is important to avoid myocardial ischaemia afterwards. In this study we investigated the incidence of patent LIMA graft side branches in our coronary angiography series, and compared LIMA flow rate changes by means ...

Left internal mammary artery grafting is commonly used in elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery. We report a near-fatal case with graft kinking upon sternal closure due to distended, emphysematous lungs impinging on the mammary graft. After the sternum was closed, the patient suffered a severe hemodynamic deterioration. Surgical examination revealed kinking of his left internal mammary ...

BACKGROUND Implant surgery has become popular with the advance of surgical techniques such as sinus lifting, guided bone regeneration, and block bone graft. However, there were no data about the frequency of bone graft during implant surgery. The purpose of this study was to report the frequency and types of bone graft depending on dental implant patients' profile to complement the database reg...

purpose: this study evaluated the effect of donor and eye bank characteristics on graft rating and clinical outcomes after penetrating keratoplasty (pk) in keratoconus-affected patients. methods: a total of 252 consecutive keratoconic eyes that underwent pk were reviewed in this retrospective interventional case series. donor data included age and sex, cause of death, death-to-preservation time...

Recently, the endovascular approach in abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) management has become a more popular and alternative to open surgery, mainly when is achieved proper patients that comfortable for both patient surgeon. In this case, our developed Type III endoleak complication after 2 years of Endovascular repair (EVAR) procedure was treated by surgery combined graft technique.
