Abstract: Evaluation of the Filtrum Length in Preop, Early Postop and Late Postop Periods in Unilateral Cleft Lips Repaired By Tennison and Millard Techniques

چکیده
CONCLUSION: Despite improvement in length of stay in high-volume centers, our findings differ with previous literature demonstrating that concentration of resources in high-volume centers generates cost-savings, as our results do not show a reduction in cost in the high-volume centers. High volume centers may undertake more complex cases, increasing costs, although there was no significant difference in complications between centers of differing volumes. Further research is needed to ensure widespread cost-efficiency.

Exercise stress testing in evaluation of aortocoronary bypass surgery. Report of 123 patients.
Graded exercise treadmill tests (ET) were performed on 123 patients who had undergone aortocoronary bypass surgery. All had angina preoperatively (preop) and 77% were in Class III or IV for angina. Postoperatively (postop), 68% were free of angina. Eighty-three patients had ST-segment changes of 0.1 mV or greater during stress preop (positive), 38 of which (46%) converted to electrocardiographi...
متن کاملPreserved postoperative penile size correlates well with maintained erectile function after bilateral nerve-sparing radical retropubic prostatectomy.
OBJECTIVES Controversial data on penile length after radical retropubic prostatectomy are available. We hypothesised that postoperative penile size correlates to erectile function following bilateral nerve-sparing radical retropubic prostatectomy (BNSRRP). METHODS Thirty-three consecutive patients with a preoperative erectile function domain of the International Index of Erectile Function (II...
متن کاملChronic aortic regurgitation: the effect of aortic valve replacement on left ventricular volume, mass and function.
Serial echocardiographic left ventricular (LV) studies were performed in 19 patients before (preop) and after (postop) aortic valve replacement (AVR) for chronic aortic regurgitation (AR); the effect of AVR on LV volume, mass and function was determined from the echocardiographic data. In the 12 patients who were considered to have successful surgical results, the average LV end-diastolic dimen...
متن کاملLeft ventricular function following coronary bypass surgery.
The effect of coronary artery bypass grafts on left ventricular performance was evaluated by analyzing preoperative (preop) and postoperative (postop) biplane left ventriculograms of 37 patients who were restudied at a mean of 13 months after operation. Eighty-two percent of the grafts were patent. Segmental wall shortening and segmental shortening velocities (mea Vcf) in the anterior, inferior...
متن کاملTriangular with Ala nasi (TAN) repair of unilateral cleft lips: a personal technique and early outcomes.
The triangular flap repair is one of the most common techniques used in cleft lip surgery. However, inability to address the nasal deformity and loss of orbicularis wholeness accompanied with incomplete reorientation have been two major handicaps of the triangular repair. Therefore, we developed our personal technique, called the triangular with ala nasi (TAN) repair, including a perialar incis...
