    AIJOC 10.5005/jp-journals-10003-1105 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Dorsal Approach Rhinoplasty Dorsal Approach Rhinoplasty Kenneth R Dubeta Part I: Historical Milestones in Rhinoplasty ABSTRACT Direct dorsal excision of skin and subcutaneous tissue is employed in rhinoplasty cases characterized by thick rigid skin to achieve satisfactory esthetic results, in which attempted repair by more conventional means would most likely frustrate both surgeon and patient. This historical review reminds us of the lesson: ‘History repeats itself.’ Built on a foundation of reconstructive rhinoplasty, modern cosmetic and corrective rhinoplasty have seen the parallel development of both open and closed techniques as ‘new’ methods are introduced and reintroduced again. It is from the perspective of constant evolution in the art of rhinoplasty surgery that the author presents, in Part II, his unique ‘eagle wing’ chevron incision technique of dorsal approach rhinoplasty, to overcome the problems posed by the rigid skin nose. Keywords: Dorsal approach rhinoplasty, Eagle wing incision, Fig. 1: Ancient Greek ‘perikephalea’ to support the Rigid skin nose, External approach rhinoplasty, Historical straightened nose1 milestones.

  • Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
    CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE LU-009 Version 2 MALIGNANT PLEURAL MESOTHELIOMA Effective Date: December, 2012 The recommendations contained in this guideline are a consensus of the Alberta Provincial Thoracic Malignancies Tumour Team synthesis of currently accepted approaches to management, derived from a review of relevant scientific literature. Clinicians applying these guidelines should, in consultation with the patient, use independent medical judgment in the context of individual clinical circumstances to direct care. CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE LU-009 Version 2 BACKGROUND Mesothelioma is a rare asbestos-related tumour that arises from mesenchymal cells that are found in the lining of the pleural cavity (Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma; MPM) in 70 to 90 percent of cases, and the peritoneal cavity in 10 to 30 percent of cases.1, 2 Due to the long latency period between exposure and disease, which has been reported to be between 30 and 50 years, most cases of mesothelioma being diagnosed today are the result of asbestos exposure in the 1960s and 1970s.3 Although safety measures for the use of asbestos were adopted in most countries several decades ago, the incidence rates, which are highly age-specific, are still rising, and are expected to peak over the next two decades.4-6 In Canada, the number of men diagnosed with mesothelioma has been steadily increasing over the past 20 years: there were 153 cases reported in 1984 versus 344 cases reported in 2003.3 Mesothelioma is less common in women: there were 78 Canadian women diagnosed with mesothelioma in 2003.3 In the United States, the peak mesothelioma incidence occurred in the early to mid-1990s and has possibly started to decline since then.

  • Lung Decortication in Phase III Pleural Empyema by Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)—Results of a Learning Curve Study

Correspondence to: Martin Reichert, MD. Department of General, Visceral, Thoracic, Transplant and Pediatric Surgery, University Hospital of Giessen, Rudolf-Buchheim Strasse 7, 35392 Giessen, Germany. Email: [email protected]. Background: Pleural empyema (PE) is a devastating disease with a high morbidity and mortality. According to the American Thoracic Society it is graduated into three phases and surgery is indicated in intermediate phase II and organized phase III. In the latter, open decortication of the lung via thoracotomy is the gold standard whereas the evidence for feasibility and safety of a minimally-invasive video-assisted thoracoscopic approach is still poor. Methods: Retrospective single-center analysis of patients undergoing surgery for phase III PE from 02/2011 to 03/2015 [n=138, including n=130 VATS approach (n=3 of them with bilateral disease) and n=8 open approach].

Downloaded from Thorax 1984;39: 789-793 Penetrating injuries of the pleural cavity DAVID JJ MUCKART, FRED M LUVUNO, LYNNE W BAKER From the Department ofSurgery, King Edward VIII Hospital, Durban, South Africa ABSTRACT Two hundred and fifty one cases of penetrating wounds of the chest were studied prospectively. Clinical evidence is presented to show that: (1) basal intercostal drains are ade- quate to remove both air and fluid from within the pleural cavity; (2) frequent chest radio- graphs are unnecessary and intercostal drains may be removed on clinical grounds alone; (3) long term antibiotic prophylaxis is unnecessary; (4) eight per cent of those undergoing initial observation will develop a delayed haemothorax or pneumothorax of sufficient size to require drainage; (5) subcutaneous emphysema is of no prognostic significance in the symptom- less patient with minimal intrapleural damage on admission; and (6) outpatient follow up is not required.

  • ICD-9-CM Procedures (FY10)
    2 PREFACE This sixth edition of the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) is being published by the United States Government in recognition of its responsibility to promulgate this classification throughout the United States for morbidity coding. The International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, published by the World Health Organization (WHO) is the foundation of the ICD-9-CM and continues to be the classification employed in cause-of-death coding in the United States. The ICD-9-CM is completely comparable with the ICD-9. The WHO Collaborating Center for Classification of Diseases in North America serves as liaison between the international obligations for comparable classifications and the national health data needs of the United States. The ICD-9-CM is recommended for use in all clinical settings but is required for reporting diagnoses and diseases to all U.S. Public Health Service and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (formerly the Health Care Financing Administration) programs. Guidance in the use of this classification can be found in the section "Guidance in the Use of ICD-9-CM." ICD-9-CM extensions, interpretations, modifications, addenda, or errata other than those approved by the U.S. Public Health Service and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services are not to be considered official and should not be utilized. Continuous maintenance of the ICD-9- CM is the responsibility of the Federal Government. However, because the ICD-9-CM represents the best in contemporary thinking of clinicians, nosologists, epidemiologists, and statisticians from both public and private sectors, no future modifications will be considered without extensive advice from the appropriate representatives of all major users.
