Management of Incus Defects in Children: Comparison of Incus Transposition Versus Glass Ionomer Cement

Comparison of Hydroxyapatite Prosthesis and Incus Interposition in Incus Defects.

Objective Chronic otitis media most commonly causes an ossicular chain defect in incus. Different materials can be used for repair of this defect. In this study, the hydroxyapatite prosthesis, used for repair of the incus defect, was compared with the incus interposition. Methods Between 2010 and 2016, 27 female and 16 male patients who underwent ossiculoplasty due to an incus defect were stu...

Reinforcement of Glass Ionomer Cement: Incorporating with Silk Fiber

The aim of this study was to synthesis of glass ionomer-silk fiber composite and to evaluate the effect of adding natural degummed silk fiber on the mechanical properties of glass ionomer cement (GIC). For this purpose, natural degummed silk fibers with 1 mm in length and 13-16 µm in diameter were added to the ceramic component of a commercial glass ionomer cement in 1, 3 and 5 wt. %. Compressi...

The blood supply of the incus.

IT ^generally held that the incus has a poor blood supply although it would appear that, in health, it is adequate. In disease, it has been observed that the long process of the incus is frequently necrosed and, as the result of the clinical examination of a recent case, it is interesting to consider the nutrition of this ossicle. A boy, now aged n , had a bicycle accident at the age of 5, was ...
