Surgical Operations

In the 1980s and 1990s Microsurgery has had a great diffusion in Italy. Our group, who worked in University of Catania, Sicily, got in touch with Sun Lee, the father of Experimental Microsurgery, and applied actively the microsurgical techniques both in the experimental and clinical field.Several Courses have been organized in Catania to involve young doctors who have been charmed by this new surgical branch.It is our opinion that in the present time Microsurgery could play an important role in the training of the general surgery residents. An experimental microsurgical training, together with simulators, could guarantee a more complete training of the residents, helping them to be familiar with surgical instruments and suture materials, improving their skill in performing microvascular anastomoses (carotid and femoral arteries) and more complex surgical operations (portocaval shunt) and leading them to a valid research activity.

Nanotechnology is manipulation of matter on atomic, molecular and supramolecular scale. It has extensive range of applications in various branches of science including molecular biology, Health and medicine, materials, electronics, transportation, drugs and drug delivery, chemical sensing, space exploration, energy, environment, sensors, diagnostics, microfabrication, organic chemistry and biomaterials. Nanotechnology involves innovations in drug delivery,fabric design, reactivity and strength of material and molecular manufacturing. Nanotechnology applications are spread over almost all surgical specialties and have revolutionized treatment of various medical and surgical conditions. Clinically relevant applications of nanotechnology in surgical specialties include development of surgical instruments, suture materials, imaging, targeted drug therapy, visualization methods and wound healing techniques. Management of burn wounds and scar is an important application of nanotechnology.Prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of various orthopedic conditions are crucial aspects of technology for functional recovery of patients. Improvement in standard of patient care,clinical trials, research, and development of medical equipments for safe use are improved with nanotechnology. They have a potential for long-term good results in a variety of surgical specialties including orthopedic surgery in the years to come.

Ethnogeriatrics is an evolving specialty in geriatric care that focuses on the health and aging issues in the context of culture for older adults from diverse ethnic backgrounds. This article is an introduction to ethnogeriatrics for healthcare professionals including speech-language pathologists (SLPs). This article focuses on significant factors that contributed to the development of ethnogeriatrics, definitions of some key concepts in ethnogeriatrics, introduces cohort analysis as a teaching and clinical tool, and presents applications for speech-language pathology with recommendations for use of cohort analysis in practice, teaching, and research activities.
