متن کاملRelationship of Conjunctival and Corneal Calcification with Secondary Hyperpara-thyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients
Background/Objective: Hyperphosphatemia is the consequence of end stage renal failure. Inadequate control of serum phosphorus results in elevated Ca×P product with subsequent soft tissue deposition in the form of conjunctival and corneal calcification. In this study, we evaluated the relationship of conjunctival and corneal calcification with secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patie...
متن کاملReconstruction of Lateral Mandibular Defects with Soft Tissue Loss: The Role of the Submental Flap

Defects involving both hard and soft tissue loss are more challenging, because of problems in soft tissue coverage. The role of the submental flap in this regard is presented. Materials and Methods: In a retrospective study from the archived files of Ghaem Hospi...
