Introduction The support anatomy of the posterior vaginal wall is a byproduct of complex interactions among the pelvic floor muscles, nerves, and connective tissue. Before a surgeon can successfully plan and perform an operation to correct a posterior compartment defect, he or she must understand not only the anatomic principles outlined in chapter 1 of this text, but the methods for assessing ...

objectives: this study aimed to assess the radicular wall thickness in mandibular incisors with two canals and find the maximum and minimum thickness to prevent root canal treatment (rct) procedural errors. materials and methods: a total of 160 extracted mandibular incisors were selected and radiographed; out of which, 55 had two canals. three parallel transverse sections were made in each toot...

Echocardiographic studies were performed in 22 patients with atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. In atrial flutter, the echocardiograms consistently demonstrated regular undulatory waves of the posterior left atrial wall and upper left interventricular septum coinciding with each flutter wave of the electrocardiogram. The mitral valve was slightly reopened by each flutter wave occurring aft...

UNLABELLED We report the case of a 39-year-old female with primary vaginal squamous cell carcinoma arising from a squamous inclusion cyst of the posterior wall. The tumor was located in the vaginal wall and extended into the rectovaginal septum. The overlying mucosa was intact. Histologically, there was invagination of the surface squamous vaginal epithelium forming a cystic lesion. In some are...

PURPOSE This study compares medial orbital wall supporting structures in patients with isolated inferior and medial wall fractures. METHODS The morphologic properties in all consecutive patients with periocular trauma who underwent orbital computed tomography (CT) scans from January 2004 to March 2006 were reviewed. On CT scans, the size of the fracture, the number of ethmoid air cell septa, ...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES An exaggerated accumulation of type I and type III fibrillar collagens occurs throughout the free wall and interventricular septum of patients with primary hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). In the present study the serum concentration of procollagen type III amino terminal peptide (PIIIP) was measured to determine the value of this peptide as a pot...

an important issue in power generation and petrochemical industries is the monitoring of pipe wall thickness and corrosion/erosion rate. the pipes are usually subject to erosive and/or corrosive environments and any failure could be catastrophic. while periodic manual ultrasonic thickness measurement is the common practice in many industries, in certain cases, where higher accuracies are requir...

Background O-30: The Correlation between Myometrial Thickness and In Vitro Fertilization/ Intracyto- Plasmic Sperm Injection (IVF/ ICSI) Outcomes MaterialsAndMethods In this prospective cohort study, 453 infertile women undergoing IVF-ET/ICSI cycles without any obvious pathology of uterine were enrolled. Trans-vaginal ultrasounds were conducted on days 2-4 of the cycle (menstrual phase) precedi...
