Traumatic degloving injuries of the mandible are rare intraoral soft tissue traumas. A simple review of the medical literature shows that no article up to this date has reported the prevalence of the degloving injuries of the mandible. Moreover, the highest incidence of mandibular degloving injuries is reported in children and young adults. In this article, the author describes the mandibular d...

High energy bone fractures resulting from impact trauma are often accompanied by subcutaneous soft tissue injuries, even if the skin remains intact. There is evidence that such closed soft tissue injuries affect the healing of bone fractures, and vice versa. Despite this knowledge, most impact trauma studies in animals have focussed on bone fractures or soft tissue trauma in isolation. However,...

Hemorrhagic shock causes oxidative stress that leads to tissue injuries in various organs including the lung, liver, kidney and intestine. Excess amounts of free heme released from destabilized hemoproteins under oxidative conditions might constitute a major threat because it can catalyze the formation of reactive oxygen species. Cells counteract this by rapidly inducing the rate-limiting enzym...

introduction: significant perineal injuries and major pelvic fractures resulting from blunt trauma manifest a high-energy injury. open pelvic fractures (with perineal injury) are associated with higher mortality rates of 40 to 60 %. methods: this study was a review of patients with multiple traumas comprising of major pelvic fracture and severe perineal injuries (shahid kamyab hospital in mashh...

Introduction/Objective. Pancreatic cancer may be accompanied by infections caused various microorganisms. It is uncertain wheatear pancreatic infection precedes the development of or vice versa. The aim this study to analyze routes from duodenum through duct determine what types microorganisms can get into pancreas and nearby tissue. Methods. In patients subjected cephalic duodenopancreatectomy...

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are one of the most common injuries in orthopaedics. ACL injury can be treated either surgically or non-surgically. When surgery is performed, the torn ligament is replaced with a new tissue that will turn into ligament over time. The two main options are autograft, which means that the tissue used to reconstruct the ACL comes from you, and allograft, w...

PURPOSE Surgery of irradiated tissue has an increased complication rate because of the development of hypovascular, hypocellular, and hypoxic tissue. This study was undertaken to perform histopathologic and histomorphometric analyses of irradiation tissue injury in bone and the surrounding soft tissues. MATERIAL AND METHODS The histopathologic findings of 40 human mandibular bones and the sur...

Regeneration is widespread, but mechanisms that activate regeneration remain mysterious. Planarians are capable of whole-body regeneration and mount distinct molecular responses to wounds that result in tissue absence and those that do not. A major question is how these distinct responses are activated. We describe a follistatin homolog (Smed-follistatin) required for planarian regeneration. Sm...

Straining movements, repetitive vibration, staying in inappropriate posture for prolonged periods cause complaints such as pain the musculoskeletal system, injuries, sprains, hernia, tears and soft tissue injuries. Complaints of excessive strain frequent repetitions over time can suddenly arise, causing a work injury. The aim this study is to determine relationship between working postures text...

BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. It can be worsened by secondary injury particularly with hypoxia or hypotension. Current prehospital guidelines emphasise regular measurement of peripheral oxygen saturation and blood pressure but there is no monitor in use to provide direct information relating to blood flow or oxygen delivery to the brain...
