Success Of Treatment

The purpose of this article is to review the literature published and to assess the success of treatment of patients with atrophic posterior maxilla with pterygoid implants. Studies from 1992 to 2009 on patients with atrophic posterior maxilla rehabilitated with pterygoid implants were reviewed. Those reporting clinical series of at least 5 patients with atrophic posterior maxilla (Class IV and V of Cawood and Howell), rehabilitated with pterygoid implants and fixed prosthesis, and with 12 months minimum follow-up were included. In each study the following were assessed: number of patients, number of implants, surgical technique, prosthetic rehabilitation, success rate, bone loss, complications and patient satisfaction. Thirteen articles were included, reporting a total of 1053 pterygoid implants in 676 patients. The weighted average success of pterygoid implants was 90.7%; bone loss evaluated radiographically ranged between 0 and 4.5 mm. No additional complications compared with conventional implants were found, and patient satisfaction level with the prosthesis was high. Pterygoid implants have high success rates, similar bone loss levels to those of conventional implants, minimal complications and good acceptance by patients, being therefore an alternative to treat patients with atrophic posterior maxilla. Two anatomical locations in which implants are placed in the retromolar area can be distinguished: the pterygoid process and the pterygomaxillary region. Implant lengths and angulations vary between these two techniques.

Objectives Early success treating incompetent perforator veins (IPVs) with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and the trend to move varicose vein surgery into a walk-in walk-out service led to the design of a specific device enabling RFA of IPVs using local anaesthesia (ClosureRFS™ stylet). Our aim was to assess one-year outcomes of a clinical series of patients undergoing treatment with this device. Truncal reflux, where present, was treated initially, and RFA of IPVs was performed as a secondary procedure. Method Duplex ultrasound examinations were performed and the presence of IPVs documented. Results were compared with preoperative scans. IPVs were classified as closed, not closed/reopened or de novo. Results Of the 75 patients invited for follow-up, 53 attended at a median time of 14 months (range 11–25). Sixty-seven limbs were analysed (M:F 1:2.1, median age 62, range 25–81). Of the 124 treated IPVs, 101 were closed (82%). Clinical, aetiological, anatomical and pathological clinical score was improved in 49.3% limbs. IPV closure was reduced in patients with recurrent varicose veins compared with primary varicose veins (72.3% versus 87%, P = 0.056). Conclusion These results demonstrate the radiofrequency stylet device to be an effective treatment for IPVs.

Background: A thyroid enlargement whether diffuses or in the form of nodules have to be investigated to rule out neoplasm. FNAC is the first line of investigation. USG and TFT are also used. The cases which are at high risk are considered for surgery. Aims and objectives of the study was the clinical presentation of thyroid swellings, incidence of various thyroid swelling, benign versus malignant lesion and to correlate the clinical diagnosis with that of pathological diagnosis.Methods: A case series study of 60 patients attending surgical OPD IPD with symptoms of thyroid in SNMRC and HSK hospital Bagalkot between 1-1-2015 to 30-6-2016. After detailed history thorough, clinical examination was carried out all the patients underwent routine investigations TFT FNAC USG neck. Few patients underwent surgery and all the thyroid specimens were sent for HPE and the clinical diagnosis is correlated with that of pathological diagnosis.Results: Of 60 cases female to male ratio was 9:1. The age group involved is between 31-40 years (31.67%). Duration of goiter is less than one year in 60% of cases. The chief complaint was swelling in front of the neck 100%. Duration of swelling ranged from 15 days to 15 years. Toxic features were present in 18.33% of cases, but after TFT the toxic cases were only 6.67%. Most of the patient showed colloid goiter (43.33%) on FNAC. Out of 60 cases only 22 cases did undergo surgery histopathological specimen were colloid versus nodular goiter in 81.88% out of 22 cases only.Conclusions: Thyroid swellings are common in females they occur in 3rd and 4th decade most commonly. FNAC is very useful in the diagnosis. The main indications of surgery are cosmetic problems, pressure effect symptoms are suspicion of malignancy.

Introduction: Nasolacrimal Duct obstruction (NLDO) is a common ophthalmic problem and theusual Treatment is Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR), either external or endonasal. This study aims toevaluate the success of external DCR with neither anterior nor posterior flaps with Mitomycin c(MMC) syringing on the 5th post-operative day (early proliferative phase of wound healing). It wasshown in the present study that a comparable good result can be achieved without tedious flapsmaking and anastomosis. Material and Methods: It is a retrospective, non-comparativeobservational Case series study done from March 2011 to August 2019. A total of 2165 patientswere included in this study qualifying inclusion criterion. 8 to 10 mm Arruga’s bone trephine wasused to make osteum in lacrimal bone and passage in the nasal mucosa. The anterior margin of thelateral side of the remaining sac was sutured to the subcutaneous tissue of the medial side adjacentto the nasal osteotomy. Syringing with 1 ml of 0.4 mg/ ml MMC was done in the newly formedpassage on the 5th post-operative day. These patients were followed up for one year. The successcriteria were symptomatic relief from epiphora subjectively. Objectively a patent nasolacrimal ductupon syringing and Nasal endoscopy. Results: 2136 (out of 2165) patients' eyes treated with thisprocedure showed resolution of epiphora with a success rate of 98.66%. Conclusion: The currentstudy suggest that DCR without flap making is an effective and easy procedure in the managementof NLDO obstruction and flap making is a futile step in the procedure as it has no impact on theoutcome.

Abstract These case reports aimed to describe the management of lateral perforation in the middle cervical third of the root in two maxillary incisors with pulp canal calcification using Bio-C Repair, with safe and viable clinical treatment strategies. Digital radiographic exams were obtained with different angles and analyzed using different filters. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were requested to show the actual position of the canal, location of the perforation, and guide the strategic planning of the case. Subsequently, cavity access was prepared with the aid of dental operating microscopy. After perforation was identified, granulation tissue was removed and the original canal was identified and then dressed with calcium hydroxide. In the second visit, the perforation was filled with Bio-C Repair and the canal system filled with gutta-percha points and a root canal sealer (Bio-C Sealer). The teeth were restored with glass fiber post, 4 mm beyond the perforation level, and provisory crowns. Both teeth treated as described above were functional and asymptomatic with a 1-year clinical and radiographic assessment. The Bio-C Repair is suggested as a new cement option for the management of lateral canal perforations, with effective results as observed after a one-year follow-up.
