Advantages And Disadvantages

Authors examine the case-report of hip arthrodesis of the Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi of Milan. 32 cases have been examined with mid follow-up of more than 31 years. Authors reconsider advantages and disadvantages of a surgical technique that now is almost abandoned, emphasizing the possible effectiveness of this surgical procedure in the light of knowledges of the prosthetic hip surgery.

Left Buttock

The authors present the case of a patient who underwent a surgery due to a branched pilonidal sinus with branching to anal sphincters and a purulent cistern in the left buttock. The lesion was diagnosed accidentally. The patient’s main ailments were non-specific buttock pains experienced for several months, which were followed by periodic febrile states. Advanced diagnostics of this region was planned and carried out. The patient was qualified for Bascom II procedure with simultaneous excision of the anal fistula tract and opening of the left buttock fluid cistern. No complications were observed in the postoperative course. The follow-up after 2 months showed no recurrence. The authors emphasize the fact that the lesions of the gluteal cleft are difficult to diagnose, diagnosed late and often asymptomatic. Proper diagnostics and proper surgical technique allow for complete cure.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Primary encephalocele is a rare deformity that is challenging for the neurosurgeon. It requires a multidisciplinary team for adequate reconstructive surgery. <b><i>Case Presentation:</i></b> We report the case of a 6-month-old African boy who presented with a frontoethmoidal encephalocele; we present a technical description of the surgical procedure, using no implant. <b><i>Discussion/Conclusion:</i></b> The postoperative evolution of the boy was uneventful, with a good clinical result at the follow-up.

A case is reported which states calcific metamorphosis of pulp in a mandibular left lateral incisor and concomitant pulp necrosis of both central incisors for a single trauma. There was a large periapical lesion associated with the teeth. Conventional endodontic treatment was performed on teeth with pulp necrosis, but the canal with calcific metamorphosis could not be negotiated with endodontic files. The periapical lesion was surgically removed and diagnosed as acute periapical abscess on histopathology. During the surgical procedure root apices of calcified tooth  as well as other teeth were removed and retrograde cavity was prepared and filled with glass ionomer cement i.e apicectomy was done. The bony defect was filled with calcium hydroxyappatite crystal. Six months later the teeth were asymptomatic and radiological follow-up showed gradual healing of the bony cavity.

Long Term Follow Up

Advances in periodontal plastic surgical procedures have led to achieve predictable root coverage outcomes for the recession defects. However, little has been reported and emphasised over management of palatal recession defects. The root coverage surgical procedures used for coverage of palatal recession defect are technically challenging in terms of accessibility and graft coverage. The purpose of this report is to describe a surgical technique used to manage deep-wide palatal recession defect. The technique uses partly deepithelialised palatal graft that is designed to approximately fit the defect site. This is employed for prolonged protection of the underlying healing process. This case report is unique in terms of treatment of deep (9.0 mm), wide (6.0 mm) palatal recession defect and its long-term follow-up for 18 months.

Femoral shaft nonunion after the intramedullary nailing has been successfully treated with advances in surgical technique. Nonetheless, the techniques cause morbidity to periosteum at the fracture site. We report the case of a 67-year-old man who underwent endoscopic surgery for refractory nonunion following the fracture of the distal femoral shaft, despite two fixations using an interlocking nail. In addition, the patient had uncontrolled diabetic mellitus. Endoscopy allowed us to acquire a clear view of the nonunion site, in which the resection of scar tissues and the packing of the cancellous bone were performed. At the final follow-up, bone healing was observed, and the patient was able to return to normal daily and social activity.

The authors present a case report showing successful autogenous calcaneal bone graft stabilization of a first metatarsal closing base wedge osteotomy nonunion. The authors discuss the complications and clinical sequelae associated with first metatarsal base wedge osteotomy nonunions. The patient's clinical presentation, surgical procedure, and postoperative course are discussed. Comparative preoperative and postoperative objective gait analyses are presented. This approach to first metatarsal nonunion salvage appears to be clinically successful with a 15-month follow-up period.

Relapse Rates

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a controversial pathology in terms of designation and treatment because it is a locally aggressive cyst that through its history has had different names and a number of alternatives for its management, such as enucleation, cryotherapy, decompression, Carnoy’s solution (CS) application or peripheral osteotomy. All the techniques having different results in relapse rates some with more advantages than others; however, until now there are no studies with sufficient data to define which is the best surgical technique to treat the OKC. We report the case of a 48-year-old man diagnosed with OKC who was treated combining different techniques. Further follow-up at the 3-, 6-, 10- and 14-month marks and three years, showed complete recovery and no evidence of recurrence. Therefore large and invasive mandibular cysts could be treated by decompression, followed by enucleation, peripheral ostectomy and then the application of CS to the bony cavity. This approach seems to be effective in the management of large and invasive mandibular cysts OKC attenuating recurrence until long follow up and impacting quality life instead of invasive techniques such as hemimandibulectomy.

Foreign body in the urinary bladder is not very common. It may occur by self insertion or migration from neighboring organs. It represents a urologic challenge which requires prompt management and should be treated as emergencies. Most of the foreign bodies in the urinary bladder can be successfully removed endoscopically. Sometimes open surgical procedure may require in removing the foreign body. Removal of foreign body from urinary bladder may be quite challenging requiring imaginations & high level surgical skills. Here we reported a case of 29 years old mentally retarded man with an intravesical foreign body. We successfully removed the foreign body by endoscopic procedure under general anesthesia. In post operative follow up there was no voiding problem & patient was advised for psychiatric consultation. JCMCTA 2012 ; 23 (2): 47-49

This case report describes the positive outcome of a therapeutic intervention that integrated an intensive, residential component with follow-up telepractice for a 21 year old male who stutters. This therapy utilized an eclectic approach to intensive therapy in conjunction with a 12-month follow-up via video telepractice. The results indicated that the client benefited from the program as demonstrated by a reduction in percent stuttered syllables, a reduction in stuttering severity, and a change in attitudes and feelings related to stuttering and speaking.
