We report a case of uterine dehiscence during pregnancy. Uterine dehiscence and rupture are serious complications of pregnancy. This situation takes place especially in women that prior uterine operation(s). We represent a 30-year-old woman diagnosed uterine dehiscence at 22 gestation week. Uterine dehiscence treated surgically and then medical treatment was given to prevent preterm labour. At ...

Urkude JS, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-220753 Description Wound dehiscence is a known complication of keratoplasty which can occur even many years following the surgery. Usually trivial trauma is the causative factor for wound dehiscence, but spontaneous dehiscence has also been reported in the literature. A 45-year-old man presented with sudden loss of vision in the left eye...

We conducted a prospective longitudinal study of two cohorts of patients who had superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome (SSCDS); one group had radiographically confirmed superior canal dehiscence (SCD), and the other exhibited no identified otic capsule dehiscence on imaging (no-iOCD). We compiled data obtained from prospective structured symptomatology interviews; diagnostic studies; ...

M ucogingival surgical procedures require the dentist to have a precise knowledge of both normal and unusua1 anatomic features of the aIveolar process. Fenestrations (Fig. 1) and dehiscences (Fig. 2) of the alveolar plate of bone are often detected only when mucogingival surgical procedures are performed. Such bony defects are probably the result of a slow, progressive absorption of an already ...

OBJECTIVE To compare clinical performance of a new resorbable non-cross-linked collagen membrane, creos xenoprotect (CXP), with a reference membrane (BG) for guided bone regeneration at dehisced implant sites. MATERIALS AND METHODS This randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled patients with expected dehiscence defects following implant placement to restore single teeth in the maxillary a...

OBJECTIVE To report obstetric outcomes in a series of women with prior uterine rupture or prior uterine dehiscence managed with a standardized protocol. METHODS Series of patients delivered by a single maternal-fetal medicine practice from 2005 to 2013 with a history of uterine rupture or uterine dehiscence. Uterine rupture was defined as a clinically apparent, complete scar separation in lab...

HYPOTHESIS High-resolution temporal bone computed tomography (CT) may erroneously demonstrate a superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) where none exists and inaccurately display the size of a dehiscence. BACKGROUND CT is an integral component of the diagnosis of SSCD. The prevalence of dehiscence as measured on computed tomographic scan is approximately eightfold higher than that on hi...

Fertilization in flowering plants requires the temporal and spatial coordination of many developmental processes, including pollen production, anther dehiscence, ovule production, and pollen tube elongation. However, it remains elusive as to how this coordination occurs during reproduction. Here, we present evidence that endocytosis, involving heterotetrameric adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2), ...
