Orbital volume and shape in Treacher Collins syndrome
2018
Orbito-palpebral reconstruction is a challenge in Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS). This study investigates orbital phenotypes in TCS using cephalometry and orbital shape analysis. Eighteen TCS and 52 control patients were included in this study, using the Dr Warehouse database. Orbital cephalometry was based on 20 landmarks, 10 planes, 16 angles, and 22 distances. Orbits were segmented. Registration-based, age-specific mean models were generated using semi-automatic segmentation, and aligned and compared using color-coded distance maps - mean absolute distance (MAD), Hausdorff distance (HD), and Dice similarity coefficient (DSC). Symmetry was assessed by mirroring and DSC computing. Central…
Conservative vs. Surgical Management of Post-Traumatic Epidural Hematoma: A Case and Review of Literature
2015
Patient: Male, 30 Final Diagnosis: Acute epidural hematoma Symptoms: — Medication: — Clinical Procedure: Observation Specialty: Neurosurgery Objective: Unusual clinical course Background: Trauma is the leading cause of death in people younger than 45 years and head injury is the main cause of trauma mortality. Although epidural hematomas are relatively uncommon (less than 1% of all patients with head injuries and fewer than 10% of those who are comatose), they should always be considered in evaluation of a serious head injury. Patients with epidural hematomas who meet surgical criteria and receive prompt surgical intervention can have an excellent prognosis, presumably owing to limited unde…
Pre-operative evaluation of the volume of bone graft in sinus lifts by means of CompuDent
2009
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the usefulness of the CompuDent program in determining the pre-operative volume of bone graft in maxillary sinus floor lifts, and to calculate the volume of graft necessary for rehabilitation using varying lengths of implants. Study design: Based on the CompuDent program, we calculated the volume of graft necessary for 47 sinus lifts. This volume was measured in order to raise the floor of each sinus to 13.4 and 15 mm in height. Results: The average volume of graft in order to achieve a lift of 13?4 mm was 2.42 cm³ for the right maxillary sinus, with a range from 1.4 cm³ to 4.1 cm³, and 2.50 cm³ for the left maxillary sinus, with a range from 1.04 cm³ …
Ruptured angiomyolipoma of the kidney: a rare differential diagnosis of flank pain.
2017
Angiomyolipomas (AMLs) of the kidney are typically benign and rare, with an incidence of 2% of all renal masses [1]. They are associated with tuberous sclerosis in about 20% of cases. If ruptured, ...

CT-Arthrographie der Schulter nach operativer Versorgung ventraler Instabilitäten
1991
25 patients who had undergone a modified Lange repair were examined postoperatively after about four years, both clinically and by CT arthrography. Ventral redislocation was no longer seen postoperatively. As regards residual ventral instability, there was agreement between CT arthrography and the clinical findings in 20/25 patients (90%). Newly developed or residual dorsal instability could be accurately demonstrated by the presence of pathological changes of the dorsal labrum and by the observation of a wide dorsal joint recess. CT arthrography did not provide reliable evidence concerning loss of function and mobility of the treated shoulder. However, the presence of marked capsular foldi…

Fehlerquellen der Navigation in der lateralen Sch�delbasischirurgie
2003
Die Identifikation moglicher Storfaktoren navigationsunterstutzter Eingriffe an der lateralen Schadelbasis ermoglichen dem Anwender die Vermeidung und Behebung dieser Fehler. Anhand unserer Erfahrungen von 85 navigationsunterstutzten Eingriffen im Bereich der lateralen Schadelbasis werden Fehler der Hard- und Software, der Bildgebung und des -transfers, der Patientenregistrierung, durch den Anwender und solche strategischer Art analysiert. Bei optischen CAS-Systemen fuhrt eine Blockade des Sichtfelds der Kameras zu Funktionsbeschrankungen, wahrend elektromagnetische Systeme durch ferromagnetisch aktive Materialien beeinflusst werden konnen. Die bisherigen Verfahren der Patientenregistrierun…
Reduced-dose computed tomography is the most accurate method to measure ceramic hip resurfacing cup version
2020
Background: A precise assessment of cup version after hip resurfacing is generally requested, especially in clinical trials or in case of complications. Aims: To identify which diagnostic imaging modality, between AP pelvis X-rays, the AP Pelvis CT Scout image and reduced-dose axial CT scan, is the most precise to assess cup version of an all-ceramic hip resurfacing implant in a first-in-human clinical trial. Methods: We retrospectively assessed the cup version of the first 20 patients who underwent an experimental all-ceramic hip resurfacing on AP pelvis X-rays (0.8 mSv of radiation), AP pelvis CT scout images (0.016 mSv) and axial CT slices performed using a reduced dose protocol (0.3 mSv…
