After the failure of a composite graft in patient with complete auricle amputation, we successfully reconstructed severely gashed using two-stage cartilage preservation surgery. We removed skin amputee and buried under postauricular scalp. The end right ear was sutured to A separation surgery performed on 14th day after burying removing suture, along scalp carefully separated from donor site lo...

A keloid is one of the most frustrating clinical problems in wound healing. Keloids form following dermal injury and exhibit exuberant and indefinite growth of collagen. Many theories have been propounded in trying to explain some of the vagaries of keloids. From one of the theories, keloid scars may develop at any age; patients between 10 and 30 years of age (reproductive age) are the most aff...

The function of the arteries as an elastic reservoir between the heart and the capillaries is reviewed. The appropriateness of selecting the exit from this reservoir as the point for estimating its effective pressure is shown. The technique for taking the pressure here by the method of Gaertner is described and its advantage and certain apparent disadvantages are indicated. The technique of Gae...

The new genus Barrerablissus and the new species B. strigosus are described from Napo Province, Ecuador. A key to the known genera of the Western Hemisphere Blissidae with apterous or micropterous condition is included. Dorsal and ventral view and digital photographs of head, pronotum, scutellum, metathoracic scent gland auricle and male genital capsule are added.

Cauliflower ear is a serious deformity of the auricle induced by single or repeated injury to the external ear. Few papers deal with surgical techniques for correcting this deformity. We describe the use of ipsilateral excess cartilage to restore the helical rim.

Phonocardiography is-often more valuable than electrocardiography in timing mechanical events in the cardiac cycle. This study shows that the opening and closing of the mitral valve are related to the length of the previous heart cycle as demonstrated by the variations occuring in aluricular fibrillation. These variations in valve action are controlled by the pressure gradient between left auri...
