introduction: fishbone is the most common foreign body found in the oropharynx. conventionally patients with suspected fishbone in the throat would have mirror laryngoscopy followed by lateral soft tissue x-ray to look for the fishbone or observe impacts caused by the fishbone i.e. soft tissue swelling or air in upper esophagus. however, the most common site of fishbone impact is the suprahyoid...

background evaluation of the craniofacial bones is the oldest method to measure the facial proportion ratio in orthodontics. objectives the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of emboss enhancement on the reliability of landmark identification in digital lateral cephalometric images. materials and methods ten digital lateral cephalograms were selected from the archive of an oral an...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to determine buccal bone and soft tissue thicknesses and their correlation in the maxillary anterior region using cone beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 330 sound maxillary incisors in 60 patients with a mean age of 37.5 years were assessed by cbct scans. for better visualization of soft tissue, patie...

objective: since orthodontic and orthognathic treatment planningin each ethnic group must be done according to the soft tissue facial characteristicsregarded as beauty,they thus vary from country to country.the main purpose of this articlewas to determine the mean range of the middle third of soft tissue facial profile and anteroposterior lip positioningusing 3angular and 2 linear measurements ...

we report here a rare case of lateral ectopia of thyroid without orthotopic thyroid tissue in an indian teenager, who was referred to our department for a thyroid scintigraphy. technetium pertechnetate (99mtco4- ) scan showed uptake in laterally placed soft tissue structure along with functioning thyroid tissue in high anterior midline neck region in line with thyroglossal tract. there is no up...

Introduction: Soft tissue has a prominent role in diagnosis and treatment plan in orthodontics. Facial proportions are measurable on lateral cephalograms. The purpose of this study was to compare the means of the normal soft tissue proportions of babol people with the norms of Caucasians. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 100 cases with normal occlusion and proportional facia...

Achieving adequate coverage of soft tissue defects located on the lower third of the legs and feet is challenging for reconstructive surgeons. Fasciocutaneous flaps can be used to meet this challenge. Two common fasciocutaneous flaps used in this context are the reverse sural flap and lateral supramalleolar flap (LSMF). Plastic and reconstructive surgeons are relatively unfamiliar with the seco...
