Objective- To evaluate the role of greater omentum incorporation of coral in healing of the long bone defect in dog model. Design- Experimental in-vivo study. Animals- Sixteen adult mongrel male dogs weighing 26.2±2.5 kg, free of evident infectious or parasitic illnesses were used in this study. Procedures- The operative procedure was undertaken under general anesthesia. Radial bone was expo...

The importance of good estimates of the defect in the numerical solution of initial value problem ordinary differential equations is considered in the context of global error estimation by using adjoint-equation based methods. In the case of solvers based on the fixed leading coefficient backward differentiation formulae, the quality of defect estimates is shown to play a major role in the reli...

The stable set polytope of a graph is the convex hull of the 01 vectors corresponding to stable sets of vertices. To any nontrivial facet ∑n i=1 aixi ≤ b of this polytope we associate an integer δ, called the defect of the facet, by δ = ∑n i=1 ai − 2b. We show that for any fixed δ there is a finite collection of graphs (called “basis”) such that any graph with a facet of defect δ contains a sub...

conclusions transabdominal laparoscopic morgagni-larrey hernia repairs with reduced number of ports are safe and feasible. introduction a bilateral anterior parasternal hernia is commonly called a morgagni-larrey hernia. morgagni hernias are rare in adults, accounting for 3% of all treated diaphragmatic hernias. this article reports a giant bilateral morgagni-larrey hernia, repaired with a lapa...
