A novel ultrasound technique to measure genioglossus movement in vivo.
Upper airway muscles are important in maintaining airway patency. Visualization of their dynamic motion should allow measurement, comparison, and further understanding of their roles in healthy subjects and those with upper airway disorders. Currently, there are few clinically feasible real-time imaging methods. Methods such as tagged magnetic resonance imaging have documented movement of genio...
متن کاملSuspensory ligament rupture technique during ovariohysterectomy in small animals.
During ovariohysterectomy, suspensory ligament (SL) rupture permits retraction of the ovary and distal ovarian pedicle through a limited ventral midline incision. This allows the surgeon to confirm that the pedicle is securely double ligated and includes no ovarian remnant. For less experienced surgeons, SL rupture is often difficult and daunting because the ligament is buried within the abdomi...
متن کاملTreatment of Suspensory Ligament Desmopathy
Suspensory ligament desmopathy is a significant cause of lameness in performance and racehorses. Although injuries to the branches and body can normally be treated successfully with supportive care and rest, injuries at the origin and insertion can become chronic non-healing injuries, which require stimulation of healing to resolve the lameness. Authors’ addresses: Marion duPont Scott Equine Me...
متن کاملNew Perspectives in Suspensory Ligament Ultrasound
Suspensory ligament (SL) injury is an important source of lameness in performance horses. Injury to the SL not only affects the ligament, the third metacarpal or metatarsal bones may also be affected. 2-3 Multiple modalities are available to aide in the diagnosis of SL injury. All modalities can make a contribution to diagnosing and characterizing SL injury. 4 However, ultrasound is commonly us...
متن کاملA Technique of Superficial Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Using an Adjustable-Loop Suspensory Fixation Device.
This report describes superficial medial collateral ligament reconstruction of the knee using a novel method of graft fixation with the ACL Tightrope RT (Arthrex, Naples, FL). After tibial fixation with either a standard interference screw or staple, femoral fixation of the semitendinosus tendon is performed with the adjustable-loop suspensory fixation device, which allows for both initial graf...
