متن کاملPlastination of Upper And Lower Limbs with Injection of Colored Polymer into the Arteries
Purpose: Plastination is a unique technique of tissue preservation developed by Dr Gunther von hagnes in Hidelberg, Germany in 1978. In this process water and lipids are replaced by curable polymers (silicon, polyester, epoxy) which are subsequently hardened, resulting in dry, odorless and durable specimens. The aim of this study was to prepare plastinated specimen of upper and lower limbs by i...

Materials and Methods: Retrospective review was done of 220 cases of A.R.M., treated from May 2002 to April 2003. All patients routinely underwe...
متن کاملIsolated adrenocorticotropin deficiency and flexion contractures syndrome.
We present a 73-year-old man with isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency and "flexion contractures" syndrome along with a review of the relevant literature. The patient initially presented anorexia, vomiting, arthralgias, malaise, and weight loss, which progressively deteriorated during the subsequent 6 months. He was admitted to the hospital with fever, confusion, severe cachexia, sin...
