5. Bad results like " boat-shaped " pupil can be avoided by taking as much time as necessary for the moulding of the lens to occur. 6. Traumatic opacification of the cornea does not occur if cocaine is not used too freely and the cornea is kept moist. 7. It reduces the period of hospitalisation. Patients can be discharged from the hospital at the end of a week and in many cases all the reaction...

INTRODUCTION The ear deformity Tanzer type V, also known as prominent ears, is the most common genetic defect of the pinna. The surgery designed for its correction is known as otoplasty. This esthetic surgery can be performed using different techniques, which requires great skill of its operator. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this work is the development of a new tool for otoplasty techniques trai...

Methods We report four patients operated in the last three years, for lesions of the ear, invading the post auricular skin and infiltrating into the scalp. On examination these ulcerating lesions had the clinical appearance of deeply infiltrating basal cell carcinoma. Surgery was performed under general anaesthesia. After resection was performed with 1 cm skin margins, down and including the te...

Pinna nobilis (Linnaeus, 1758) is the largest bivalve endemic to Mediterranean. It distributed in a wide range of coastal environments, including estuaries. has recently become critically endangered species (with almost 100% mortality) along entire Spanish Mediterranean coast. This may be due coinfections caused by Haplosporidium pinnae and bacterial pathogens such as Mycobacterium spp. We exte...

Spectral localization cues provided by the outer ear are utilized in the construction of the auditory space map in the superior colliculus (SC). The role of the outer ear in the development of this map was examined by recording from the SC of anesthetized, adult ferrets in which the pinna and concha had been removed in infancy. The acoustical consequences of this procedure were assessed by reco...

A critical appraisal and clinical application of Ambrosino N, Callegari G, Galloni C, Brega S, Pinna G. Clinical evaluation of oscillating positive expiratory pressure for enhancing expectoration in diseases other than cystic fibrosis. Monaldi Arch Chest Dis. 1995;50(4):269-275.

Sound localization tes(s and WFS measurements in the median plane were carried OUI under [he conditions of progressively occluding three pinna cavities: scapha, fossa, and conchs, The results show that [he spectral cue in median plane localization is mainly formed by conchs.

The purpose of this work is to study how the brain solves perceptual antinomies, induced by the watercolor illusion in the color and in the figure-ground segregation domain, when they are present in different parts of the same object. The watercolor illusion shows two main effects: a long-range coloration and an object-hole effect across large enclosed areas (Pinna, 1987, 2005, 2008a, b; Pinna ...
