The fact that considerable attention has been drawn of late years, both in the medical and lay press, to the subject of operations undertaken for the relief of idiocy and other mental deficiencies of child-life, must be my excuse for taking up the time of this section with observations resting, not alone upon my own limited experience, but largely on that of others. The operation of craniectomy, or as some prefer to call it linear craniotomy (that is the cutting out of strips of bone from the skull), has, indeed, almost passed from the domain of science to the region of romance, and articles have appeared in several of our popular magazines under such sensational titles as “Creating a Mind,” which have led parents of mentally-deficient children to form extravagant conceptions of the powers of surgery in this direction. It may not, therefore, be inappropriate for medical men to weigh and measure the evidence which has accumulated during the last five years as to the possibilities and impossibilities of operative interference in these cases.

The ligaments of the rectum have been the subject of controversy for decades. Not only have their contents and components been a source of contention, but also the very existence of these ligaments has been called into question. This article explores the anatomical features of these ligaments with implications for surgical treatment of rectal prolapse, rectal cancer, and resection of the rectum and mesorectum. A theory about the evolution of the lateral rectal ligaments and the mesorectum in humans and higher mammals is also presented.

The Subject

Objective: To critically evaluate the literature on surgical treatment options for nasal septal perforations and to analyse the outcomes of these treatment options.Design: A systematic review of studies of nasal septal perforation closure using surgical intervention, published from January 1975 to March 2006.Data sources: Forty-nine papers were identified from electronic databases (all Evidence Based Medicine reviews (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, American College of Physicians Journal Club, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effectiveness and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register), EMBASE, Ovid (Medline) and British Medical Journal publications) and from a hand search of the reference lists of retrieved papers. Textbooks pertinent to the subject were referred to for background reading. Twenty-three studies met the inclusion criteria.Main outcome measure: Effectiveness of the surgical intervention to completely close the perforation.Results: Five studies examined the sole use of intranasal mucosal flaps to close the perforation, i.e. inferior turbinate flaps, quadrangular cartilage flap and mucoperiosteal flap. Eighteen studies reported the use of a combination of intranasal mucosal flap and interposition graft. Graft materials included temporalis fascia, mastoid periosteum, nasal septal material, acellular human dermal graft, conchal cartilage and porcine small intestine mucosa. Studies utilising interposition grafts generally produced higher closure rates. The surgical approaches documented include closed endonasal, unilateral hemitransfixion, external rhinoplasty and midfacial degloving techniques. A range of surgical treatment methods was reported in the literature, but some papers were excluded from this review as they did not meet the inclusion criteria. It was difficult to infer the true effectiveness of each study as the subject numbers were small, patient selection criteria were often unspecified and the follow-up period was brief. However, factors leading to an increased chance of success were identified.Conclusion: The review found an extensive range of surgical treatment techniques, but reported results were rarely statistically significant. It is difficult to be categorical about the effectiveness of a surgical treatment method; nonetheless, each technique has its own advantages and drawbacks.

Combined Interventions

Currently no unified generally accepted classification of intraocular changes due to diabetes mellitus (DM), in particular, diabetic retinopathy (DR). The methodological heterogeneity of the existing classifications is largely due to the different directions of their application. Some classifications are optimal for the choice of surgical treatment tactics, others - for laser and / or combined interventions. Obviously, the valuation of any classification lies in the completeness whole palette of available clinical and morphological changes considering staging pathogenetic process. Therefore, the search for optimal classification of DR that meets current possibilities of treating vitreoretinal pathology is the subject of a lively discussion. Key words: classifications, diabetic retinopathy, advantages and limitations.

This case study describes successful management of spastic dysphonia using a procedure whereby the right recurrent laryngeal nerve was severed. Thirteen months following the surgical treatment, the subject reported a return of the preoperative vocal characteristics of spastic dysphonia. Tests and inspection revealed that the right recurrent nerve was again intact and the right vocal fold was functional. A second surgical procedure was performed, modified to prevent neural reconnection, with a return of the improved voice observed following the initial surgery. The results are discussed in terms of etiological considerations of spastic dysphonia.

<p class="abstract">The authors report the exceptional case of isolated muscular tuberculosis affecting the anterior compartment of the right thigh in a 38-year-old man. The diagnosis was based on histology and GeneXpert. The subject received a surgical treatment followed by medical treatment for 6 months. The GeneXpert test has proved to be useful in the diagnosis of muscular tuberculosis. We have not found in the literature the use of GeneXpert in this type of localization of tuberculosis whose diagnostic is not always easy. Through the study of this case and a review of the literature, the authors review the pathogenesis of this particular affection as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

Abstract Background: Osteonecrosis of the jaw is an uncommon but serious complication related to oral and intravenous bisphosphonate (BP) therapy. Its pathogenesis is not well understood, and there are no universal protocols accepted to treat it. The aim of our study was to use the same questionnaire as four years ago to evaluate the awareness of dentists in Tîrgu Mureș regarding the dental treatments that can be applied in patients on BP therapy, and to assess how their knowledge on the subject has evolved over these years. Material and method: We used the same questionnaire-based study as four years ago among dentists in Tîrgu Mureș, raising important issues such as: is the patient asked about current or previous treatments with BPs, do they perform surgical treatment in these patients, do they know under what conditions they can perform this treatment, or do they deem it necessary to contact the prescriber before surgical treatment. Results: One-hundred twenty questionnaires were returned. The majority of respondents (n = 113, 94.2%) included the question regarding the use of BPs in their medical records. Of all respondents, 48 (40%) perform dental or surgical treatments on patients undergoing BP therapy, 68 (56.7%) do not perform dental or surgical treatments on these patients, and four of the respondents (3.3%) did not know the answer. One hundred (83.3%) respondents always contact the prescriber prior to surgery in these patients, regardless of how BPs are administered. Conclusions: According to the findings of the present study, many of the respondent doctors have heard about BPs and their complications, but they are not aware of the fundamental concepts of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw prevention and treatment protocols. In the absence of appropriate protocols, the quality of life of these patients is compromised.

Introduction. Chronic deep pyoderma occurs relatively rare in the surgeon practice and, due to the poor knowledge of this pathology, its diagnosis is difficult by surgeons. Misdiagnosis leads to erroneous treatment tactics. Chronic deep recurrent pyoderma includes: abscessing and disrupting perifolliculitis of the head (Hoffmann) (ADPH), axillary and inguinal-perineal suppurative hydradenitis, pilonidal cyst of the sacrococcygeal area. The diseases listed follow the same pathogenesis.The purpose of the publication: to acquaint surgeons with the diagnosis and treatment of a particular type of chronic deep recurrent pyoderma – abscessing and disrupting head perifolliculitis (Hoffmann) in the conditions of the surgery room, since this problem is purely issued in the literature of the subject.Material and methods. Since 2007 until to 2020, we had observed 20 cases of deep chronic recurrent pyoderma (15 men and 5 women), but only two cases were correctly detected before treatment, in other cases – retrospectively. Research method: analyzing of clinical observation data and laboratory tests.Results. In our practice, nine men suffered from abscessing and disrupting perifolliculitis of the head. We had described and classificated the features of this disease, focused on three clinical cases.Conclusions. Abscessing and disrupting perifolliculitis of the head is still purely diagnosable and curable disease, the treatment as follows: regimen and hygienic measures, surgical treatment, conservative treatment. Surgical treatment should be as radical as possible.
