Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports | Volume 1 | Issue 1 ABSTRACT Introduction Intraosseous ganglions, although share same pathology as the soft tissue ganglions are rare entities, further rare in carpals. Cases of intraosseous ganglions are reported in literature mostly in lower limbs and lunate among carpals, with treatment options ranging from curettage and grafting to calcium phosphate ceme...

background: successful anesthesia during root canal therapy may be difficult to obtain. intraosseousinjection significantly improves anesthesia’s success as a supplemental pulpal anesthesia, particularly incases of irreversible pulpitis. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of x‑tip intraosseousinjection and inferior alveolar nerve (ian) block in primary anesthesia for mandibular p...

OBJECTIVE To compare intraosseous concentrations and inhibitory effects on the growth of Staphylococcus aureus following intravenous administration of 1 or 2 g of the prophylactic cefazolin between patients with decreased renal function vs. intact renal function undergoing total knee arthroplasty. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ten patients (13 knees) with primary knee osteoarthritis were divided into ...

STUDY OBJECTIVE Despite the growing popularity of intraosseous infusion for adults in emergency medicine, to date there has been little research on the pharmacokinetics of intraosseously administered medications in humans. The objective of the study was to compare the pharmacokinetics of intraosseous vs intravenous administration of morphine sulfate in adults. METHODS The study followed a pro...

The clinical, light microscopic, ultrastructural, and immunohistologic findings of a neurilemmoma encroaching upon the nasolacrimal duct are presented. This is the first reported case of this rare tumour of the nasolacrimal duct where the diagnosis has been confirmed by electron microscopy and immunohistochemical techniques.

INTRODUCTION Schwannoma, or neurilemmoma, is a benign neoplasm of Schwann cells that is extremely rare in the soft palate. Herein we present a case of a soft palate schwannoma presenting with an ulcerated surface and purplish colour in a 12 year-old girl. This report also introduces a successful surgical technique for coverage of the defect left by surgery.

A case is presented of neurilemmoma of the left oculomotor nerve occurring in a 64-year-old hypertensive woman. The incipient tumour produced ptosis, limited inwards rotation of the eyeball, and persistent pupillary dilatation on the left side. The mechanism of this process is discussed, having regard to the interruption of the fibres innervating these structures by the tumour, and considering ...
