Caliber estimation from cranial entrance defect measurements.
Caliber estimation from entrance defects has long been rejected by forensic scientists. This appears to be a consequence of soft tissue perspective of forensic pathologists. This study examined the relation between caliber and cranial entrance defects and maximum cranial thickness. The calibers considered in this inquiry were .22, .25, .32, and .38. The sample consisted of 73 specimens obtained...
متن کاملFeasibility study on repair for cranial defect of immaturity.
AIM To evaluate use of a titanium mesh to fill cranial defects in growing animals, as a model for juvenile humans. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty two-month-old Seghers pigs were evenly assigned to one of three groups: controls, a defect group (unrepaired 5 x 5 cm lesion), and a repair group (repaired 5 x 5 cm lesions). Histological evaluations and morphological measurements were conducted to com...
متن کاملMR imaging evolution of endoscopic cranial defect reconstructions using nasoseptal flaps and their distinction from neoplasm.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endoscopic endonasal approach is the procedure of choice for the resection of ventral skull base neoplasms, with defect closure requiring multilayer reconstruction. This study evaluates the temporal MR imaging evolution of nasoseptal flaps and free grafts used in endoscopic skull base reconstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty-nine follow-up brain MRIs of 22 patients w...
متن کاملCranial Defect Overlying a Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt: Pressure Gradient Leading to Free Flap Deterioration?
We report a case of free flap deterioration which may have been induced by pressure gradient resulting from cranial defect overlying a ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VP shunt). The patient, male and aged 78, had a VP shunt operation for progressive hydrocephalus. Afterwards, the scalp skin flap surrounding the VP shunt collapsed and showed signs of necrosis, exposing part of the shunt catheter. Af...
متن کاملEndoscopic repair of anterior cranial fossa dural defect in an unusual case of frontal sinus trauma.
Because of its vulnerable location, the frontal sinus may be involved in several types of maxillofacial trauma. This involvement may cause fractures of the anterior and/or posterior walls of the sinus,1 lodgment of foreign bodies in the sinus,2 and anterior cranial fossa dural tears, which may result in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea, meningitis, aerocele, and other intracranial complicat...
