Complications associated with fractured file removal using an ultrasonic technique.
A technique utilizing modified Gates Glidden burs and ultrasonics has recently been advocated to remove fractured instruments from root canals. Varying extents of tooth structure are removed during this procedure, potentially leading to complications. This study evaluated the in vitro and in vivo complications associated with fractured file removal. Fractured instrument fragments were removed f...
متن کاملThe ultrasonic harmonic scalpel for circumcision: experimental evaluation using dogs.
Male circumcision is one of the most commonly performed operations worldwide, and many novel techniques have been developed for better postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of applying the ultracision harmonic scalpel (UHS) for circumcision by using dogs. Sixteen adult male dogs were divided into two groups: the UHS group and the control group. The dog...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of chronic constrictive pericarditis using an ultrasonic scalpel.
A 61-year-old male had complained of cough and dyspnea on effort, with right pleural effusion. Computed tomography demonstrated a calcific pericardium surrounding the entire heart, with thickening of 10 mm. Cardiac catheterization showed no coronary disease, but a dip-and-plateau of the pressure curve of both ventricles. We diagnosed congestive heart failure due to chronic constrictive pericard...
متن کاملAlternative technique in atypical spinal decompression: the use of the ultrasonic scalpel in paediatric achondroplasia.
Spinal stenosis can be a very disabling condition. Surgical decompression carries a risk of dural tear and neural injury, which is increased in patients with severe stenosis or an atypical anatomy. We present an unusual case of symptomatic stenosis secondary to achondroplasia presenting in a paediatric patient, and highlight a new surgical technique used to minimise the risk of dural and neural...
متن کاملNew technique for aortic valve functional annulus reshaping using a handmade prosthetic ring.
BACKGROUND Despite a wide development in aortic leaflets repair techniques, aortic valve annuloplastic procedures are still poorly investigated. We present our aortic valve annuloplastic system consisting of a handmade prosthetic ring with 2 components for reshaping the aortic annulus and sinotubular junction (STJ) and illustrates our surgical approach and clinical results. METHODS Since Febr...
