purpose: to compare clear corneal incision and scleral tunnel incision in terms of intraocular pressure (iop), post-operative inflammation, induced astigmatism, and corneal edema in phacoemulcification. methods: this non-controlled clinical trial was conducted on 78 eyes with senile cataract. a clear corneal incision was made in 40 eyes and a scleral tunnel incision was made in 38 eyes. all eye...

background: surgical technique using small-diameter  instruments and single-incision laparoscopy are two new options for less invasive laparoscopic cholecystectomy (lc). in this study, we have compared mini-lc (mlc) with single-incision lc (silc). materials and methods: this study is a randomized clinical trial conducted on the patients diagnosed with  symptomatic cholelithiasis who underwent l...

purpose : to investigate tear film status after phacoemulsification surgery with temporal and supratemporal clear corneal incision in a cohort of patients with senile cataract methods : we enrolled sixty eight eyes of 68 patients with senile cataract requiring phacoemulsification in a prospective, cohort study. all patients undergone basic tear secretion test (btst), tear meniscus height (tmh),...

a nulliparous non-descript mare was presented with a complaint of dystocia. the mare was recumbent and physical examination revealed that the animal was in shock. there was no straining and foetal forelimbs were visible outside the vulva. the foetus was dead as there was no pedal reflex. vaginal examination revealed anterior presentation with dorso-sacral position and rigid lateral head deviati...

purpose: to evaluate the outcomes of keratorefractive surgery for correction of postkeratoplasty astigmatism in keratoconus. methods: in this retrospective study, surgical records of 45 eyes of 45 patients that underwent relaxing incisions with or without compressive sutures were evaluated. the minimum interval between complete suture removal and operation was 1 month. location and extent of in...

Background Subclavian and axillary arteries true aneurysms are rarely seen. The best incision for surgical approach is median sternotomy for intrathoracic right subclavian artery aneurysm, left thoracotomy for intrathoracic left subclavian artery aneurysm and supraclavicular incision for extrathoracic ones. Many surgeons approaches as subclavicular incision, subclavicular incision extending to ...

BACKGROUND Patients who undergo carpal tunnel surgery sometimes complain of the restriction of the grip and pinch function, palmar tenderness, cosmetic problems, and scar formation at the site of the incision. AIMS We used a modified mini uni-skin incision with appropriate hand position for microscopic view in the surgical treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome to prevent cosmetic problems relat...
