background: brucellosis can involve almost any organ system and may present with a broad spectrum of clinical presentations. in this study we present a case of deep vein thrombosis due to human brucellosis. case presentation: a 15 year old boy presented acute pain and swelling in his left thigh. when admitted to the hospital in june 2011, he complained of fever, chills and lowers extremity pain...

The use of deep brain stimulation in psychiatric disorders has received great interest owing to the small risk of the operation, the reversible nature of the technique, and the possibility of optimizing treatment postoperatively. Currently deep brain stimulation in psychiatry is investigated for obsessive-compulsive disorder, Gilles de la Tourette’s syndrome and major depression. This presentat...

lamellar keratoplasty (lk) has been a well established technique of corneal transplantation. recent improvements in surgical instruments have revolutionized the procedure introducing a new technique employing deeper corneal dissection. this review article describes the indications, techniques, outcomes and complications of deep anterior lk.

purpose: to determine the dissection level during deep lamellar keratoplasty (dalk) using the big-bubble technique by light microscopy (lm) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). methods: descemet’s membrane (dm) and stromal tissue of 4 keratoconic eyes were removed because of inadvertent intraoperative dm perforation during dalk which was converted to penetrating keratoplasty. these speci...

Deep cryogenic heat treatment is assumed as a supplementary heat treatment performed on steels before the final tempering treatment to enhance the wear resistance and hardness of the steels. In this study, the effects of the deep cryogenic heat treatment on the wear behavior and corrosion resistance of the 1.2080 tool steel were studied using the wear testing machine and polarization and impeda...

Influence of formation of surface nano/ultrafine structure using deep rolling on plasma nitriding and tribological properties of the AISI 316L stainless steel was investigated. Initially, the deep rolling process was carried out on the bar-shaped specimens at 15 cycles with 0.2 mm/s longitudinal rate and 22.4 rpm bar rotation. Then, plasma nitriding treatment was applied on the as-received...
