Background: Enucleation is a topic discussed in psychiatry which is a self-injury matter. Enucleation is observed as psychotic disorder due to substance abuse. In people with mental disorders who also have substance use leading to hallucinations and delusions, unusual eye evacuation were reported. In most cases, enucleation was done using sharp tools. Case Report: This report describes a man su...

purpose: to compare complications and motility of hydroxyapatite versus medpor ocular implants after enucleation at ahvaz imam hospital (from jan 2010 to jun 2011). methods: in a clinical trial, 50 patients scheduled for enucleation were randomly divided in two groups of 25 patients. group 1 underwent enucleation + hydroxyapatite (ha) and group 2 underwent enucleation + medor implant. all patie...

conclusions in conclusion, we recommend that laparoscopic spleen preserving procedures should be preferred for hydatid spleen when conditions are favorable and enough precautions are taken to prevent spillage. we suggest the use of aspirator for giving the scolicidal agent and favor the albendazole as an adjuvant therapy to prevent its recurrence. introduction cystic lesions of spleen are rare....

PURPOSE To date, the parameters for evaluating enucleation efficiency have only considered enucleation time, although operators simultaneously consume both time and energy during holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. This study was undertaken to find a better way of assessing enucleation skills, considering both enucleation time and consumed energy. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred (n=1...

Mouse oocytes were placed in Hepes-T6 containing 7.5 μg/ml cytochalasin B and 5μg/ml Hoechst prior to enucleation, and enucleation was performed on oocytes using the manipulator. The oocyte held in place by gentle suction of a holding pipette (oocyte diameter approx.70 μm). The metaphase spindle (arrow) is aspirated into an enucleation pipette (1).

Background: The potential applications of a simplified method of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) that is improved in both efficiency and throughput is considerable. Technically, a major step of SCNT is to produce large pools of enucleated oocytes (cytoplasts) efficiently, a process that requires considerable micromanipulation skill and expensive equipment. Here, we have devel oped an efficient...

OBJECTIVE To examine predictors of enucleation and morcellation times within a large cohort of men undergoing holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hypertrophy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative clinical characteristics were available from men treated with HoLEP between 1998 and 2013 at Indiana University Health Methodist Hos...

Enucleation is one of the most frequently performed orbital surgeries. Indications for enucleation include a blind, painful eye; ocular neoplasia; severe corneal or intra-ocular infection; and ocular trauma not amenable to surgical repair. Several publications recommend that equine enucleation only be performed under general anesthesia. However, per several recent reports, enucleation can be pe...
