Electromechanical reshaping of septal cartilage.
OBJECTIVES This study describes the process of tissue electroforming and how shape changes in cartilage can be produced by the application of direct current (DC). The dependence of shape change on voltage and application time is explored. STUDY DESIGN Basic investigation using ex vivo porcine septal cartilage grafts and electromechanical cartilage deformation focused on development of a new s...
متن کاملMinimizing superficial thermal injury using bilateral cryogen spray cooling during laser reshaping of composite cartilage grafts.
Composite cartilage grafts were excised from New Zealand rabbit ears. Flat composite grafts (of cartilage and overlying skin graft on both surfaces) were obtained from each ear and cut into a rectangle measuring 50 mm by 25 mm (x by y) with an average thickness of approximately 1.3 mm (z), skin included. Specimens were manually deformed with a jig and maintained in this new position during lase...
متن کاملElectromechanical reshaping of costal cartilage grafts: a new surgical treatment modality.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Needle electrode-based electromechanical reshaping (EMR) is a novel, ultra-low-cost nascent surgical technology to reshape cartilage with low morbidity. EMR uses direct current to induce mechanical relaxation in cartilage that is first deformed into a required geometry, which in turn leads to permanent shape change. The objective of this study was to determine the effect o...
متن کاملSurvival of diced and block cartilage grafts in combination with injectable calcium hydroxylapatite.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Dorsal nasal irregularities after trauma, and various procedures such as excessive nasal hump resection, are major problems for patients who have undergone rhinoplasty. Many grafts have been described for the correction of dorsal nasal irregularities. In this study, we used an injectable implant, in combination with diced or block cartilage grafts, to test the efficacy of ...
