The purpose of this study was to compare the mesio-distal and vertical position impacted maxillary canines on panoramic radiographs with labio-palatal root resorption adjacent teeth CBCT (ConeBeam Computed Tomography). A total 54 patients 69 were included in study. On radiographs, (Sector I - V), position, angulation evaluated. Labio-palatal evaluated CBCT. Labial impaction most frequent sector...

The increasing need for total hip replacement (THR) in an ageing population will inevitably generate a larger number of revision procedures. The difficulties encountered in dealing with the bone deficient acetabulum are amongst the greatest challenges in hip surgery. The failed acetabular component requires reconstruction to restore the hip centre and improve joint biomechanics. Impaction bone ...

On a sample of 174 X-rayed dogs a statistical analysis was compiled of oligodontia, post-extraction state, impaction and tooth fracture. A total of 261 anomalies were found. The most frequently observed condition was oligodontia (62%) followed by tooth fracture (23.7%), impaction (7.6%) and post-extraction state (6.5%). The majority of patients (28) comprised German Hunting Terriers where, from...

BACKGROUND Squamous cell carcinomas and renal failure were reported the causes of death in patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). Death from colonic disease in epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is never reported. CASE PRESENTATION We demonstrate a male patient with RDEB. He suffered megacolon due to fecal impaction and died from sigmoid colon perforation with peritonitis at...

Neurological deterioration sometimes follows removal of cerebro-spinal fluid by lumbar puncture below a spinal block caused by a tumour. Experience has shown that similar impaction of a spinal intradural tumour may occur following the draining of hydrocephalus. We have used the term "upward spinal coning " to describe this and report four cases in which impaction of an intradural metastasis occ...

Multiple circular or oval pulmonary densities on chest roentgenogram most commonly represent neoplastic metastases. This radiographic picture may also be seen in other tumors (lymphoma, myeloma), infectious diseases (especially tuberculosis and fungal chest diseases), immunologic disorders (Wegener’s granulomatosis and rheumatoid lung), mucoid impaction, pneumoconiosis, A-V fistulae, multiple b...

Posterior fracture-dislocations often remain undiagnosed at initial medical attendance. In dislocation, the head of humerus extends beyond glenoid to form a zone impaction, which “fixes” it. The injury is almost unidentifiable in standard frontal X-ray images. Meanwhile, continued fixation state posterior dislocation leads rapid progression traumatic impaction over up 50% articular surface area...
