in crooked noses, the lateral walls are different in shape and symmetry. although the septum is very important to obtain a straight nose, identical and symmetrical lateral walls are needed for a straight looking nasal dorsum. as well as the septum, lateral walls also contribute in nasal skeletal support and stability. thus, obtaining identical and symmetrical lateral walls is important. in orde...

Pyometrocolpos resulting from congenital obstructing lesions can present during early childhood and adolescence with varying signs and symptoms. Children with pyometrocolpos due to distal vaginal obstruction may present as acutely ill with obstructive uropathy and septicaemia. We present a case of a two year old girl with pyometrocolpos in whom drainage under anaesthesia lead to marked improvem...

Purpose In this single-institution retrospective study, configuration analysis was performed to determine the optimal location and volume of hyaluronic acid gel spacer injection into rectovaginal or vesicovaginal septum for effective dose reduction (DR) organs at risk (OARs), rectum bladder. Methods materials 70 50 intracavitary brachytherapy treatment plans used only vaginal cylinders with spa...

Introduction: The recto-vaginal fistula is a pathological communication between the posterior wall of vagina and anterior rectum, through septum. Fistulas obstetric origin remain common in developing countries. Aim: To describe epidemiological aspects rectovaginal fistulas our department discuss results treatment.Patients methods: Retrospective multicentre study from January 1, 2014 to December...

the main issues in nasal surgery are to stabilize the nose in the good position after surgery and preserve the cartilages and bones in the favorable situation and reduce the risk of deviation recurrence. also it is necessary to avoid the synechia formation, nasal valve narrowing, hematoma and bleeding. due to the above mentioned problems and in order to solve and minimize them nasal packing, na...

the cholinergic and gabaergic .bers of the medial septal/diagonal band of broca (ms/db) area project to the hippocampus and constitute the septo-hippocampal pathway, which has been proven to play a role in learning and memory. in addition, the hippocampus has bidirectional connections with the septum so that to self-regulate of cholinergic input. the activity of septal and hippocampal neurons i...

Obstetric injury is the most frequent cause of acquired rectovaginal fistulas but infection and other forms of trauma may also result in these fistulas. After an obstetric injury, the fistula may be manifest immediately but more frequently appears 7–10 days after delivery. Fistulas occur most often after a thirdor fourth-degree laceration. Inadequate repair, breakdown of the repair, or infectio...

background nasal septal deviation (nsd) can cause upper airway obstruction, which results in hypoxia and therefore, pulmonary vasoconstriction, ventricular hypertrophy and right-sided heart failure. objectives the aim of this study is to determine the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mpap) of the patients with nsd and the effect of septoplasty on pulmonary arterial pressure. patients and metho...
