  • Usefulness of the Harmonic Scalpel in Thyroid Surgery
    ORIGINAL ISSN: 2005-162X J Korean Thyroid Assoc 2012 November 5(2): 138-142 ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.11106/jkta.2012.5.2.138 Usefulness of the Harmonic Scalpel in Thyroid Surgery Hwan Choe, Kwang-Yoon Jung, Soon-Young Kwon, Jeong-Soo Woo, Min Woo Park and Seung-Kuk Baek Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea Background and Objectives: The harmonic scalpel using the ultrasonic energy is able to grasp and divide tissue while sealing small vessels in narrow operating fields. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of the harmonic scalpel in thyroid surgery. Materials and Methods: This study was performed for 247 patients who underwent thyroidectomy. According to the use of harmonic Scalpel, the patients could be divided into two groups: the conventional technique (CT) group of knot tying and the harmonic scalpel (HS) group. Results: For hemithyroidectomy, operation time and hospital stay were shorter in the HS group compared with the CT group (p＜0.05). For total thyroidectomy with central neck dissection (CND), operation time, total drainage volume, drain removal date, and hospital stay were significantly reduced in the HS group (p＜0.05). Among the patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with CND with the HS, one patient (2.9%) showed transient recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy. Transient hypoparathyroidism showed significantly lower incidence in the HS group (p＜0.05). Conclusion: HS might be cost-effective by reducing operation time and hospital stay

  • The Basic Surgery Kit
    GLOBAL EXCLUSIVE > SURGERY > PEER REVIEWED The Basic Surgery Kit Jan Janovec, MVDr, MRCVS VRCC Veterinary Referrals Laurent Findji, DMV, MS, MRCVS, DECVS Fitzpatrick Referrals Considering the virtually limitless range of surgical instruments, it can be difficult to assemble a cost-effective basic surgery kit. Some instruments may misleadingly appear multipurpose, but their misuse may damage them, leading to unnecessary replacement costs or, worse, intraoperative accidents putting the patient’s safety at risk. Many instru- ments are available in different qualities and materials (eg, tungsten carbide instruments— more expensive but much more resistant to wear and corrosion than stainless steel) and Minimal Basic Surgery Kit varied sizes to match the purpose of their use as well as the size of the surgeon’s hand. n 1 instrument case Cutting Instruments n 1 scalpel handle Scalpel n 1 pair Mayo scissors The scalpel is an indispensible item in a surgical kit designed to make sharp incisions. Scalpel incision is the least traumatic way of dissection, but provides no hemostasis. n 1 pair Metzenbaum scissors Scalpel handles come in various sizes, each accommodating a range of disposable n 1 pair suture scissors blades (Figure 1). Entirely disposable scalpels are also available. n 1 pair Mayo-Hegar needle holder Scissors n 1 pair Brown-Adson tissue forceps Scissors are used for cutting, albeit with some crushing effect, and for blunt dissection. n 1 pair DeBakey tissue forceps Fine scissors, such as Metzenbaum scissors (Figure 2), should be reserved for cutting n 4 pairs mosquito hemostatic forceps and dissecting delicate tissues. Sturdier scissors, such as Mayo or suture scissors, are designed for use on denser tissues (eg, fascia) or inanimate objects (eg, sutures, drapes).

  • The Drainage of Subretinal Fluid: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
    THE DRAINAGE OF SUBRETINAL FLUID: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL BY George F. Hilton, MD INTRODUCTION AMONG THE MANY CONTROVERSIES IN RETINAL DETACHMENT SURGERY, NONE HAS been more persistent than the unresolved question of drainage versus nondrainage. The controversy has persisted for over 20 years, and more than 60 papers have been written on the subject; however, to date there have been no controlled studies. The ongoing interest in this problem is illustrated by a recent Jules Gonin Club symposium on the drainage of subretinal fluid. After numer- ous papers on the subject the final summary acknowledged: "We are still challenged by the question: To drain or not to drain.'"1 The interest in this question is enhanced by the fact that most retinal surgeons regard the procedure ofsubretinal fluid drainage as a potentially hazardous step. Martin2 has defined it as "the most dangerous part of a retinal detachment operation." Ferguson3 referred to it as "the most crucial point" in the operation, and Norton4 observed that "fluid drainage is the one aspect ofthe surgical procedure over which the surgeon has the least control and although complications are unusual, they can be disas- trous." Not all authors are equally impressed with the potential complica- tions ofdrainage. Chawla5 regarded this surgical step as "only one danger among equals," and Schepens6 wrote that "the rate of complications from correctly performed perforation for the release of subretinal fluid is less than 1%." This question was recently brought into focus by a pair of papers representing the two major schools of thought on the issue.

C. APRIL 1971 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Foreword This report on the medical services at Morristown during the winter encampment of 1779-80 was undertaken to restudy and evaluate the subject in the light of the standard practices of the Continental Army Medical Department. One phase of the evaluation is to determine if the existence and location of the present replica of the so-called Tilton Hospital in the Jockey Hollow area can be justified historically. For interpretive purposes, the report reviews the organic structure of the medical or hospital department, identifies and describes health problems and diseases, and outlines the medical resources of the military surgeons to combat incident diseases and preserve the health of the soldiers. Research on the subject was conducted at the Library of Congress, the National Archives, Pennsylvania Historical Society, American Philosophical Society, the Library Company of Philadelphia and the Morristown NHP library. Several persons contributed to the completion of this study. As usual, Superintendent Stephen H. Lewis and Historians Bruce W. Steward and Diana F. Skiles provided splendid cooperation during my stay in the park; Leah S. Burt, Assistant Park Archivist, located Dr. Cochran's "LetterBook" in the Morristown Public Library. In the National Archives, the diligent efforts of Miss Marie Bouhnight, Office of Old Military Records, resulted in locating much-needed hospital returns of Valley Forge, Middlebrook and Morristown.

  • Applications in Spine Surgery and Surgical Technique Guide
    UltraSonic Bone Dissector: Applications in Spine Surgery and Surgical Technique Guide Peyman Pakzaban, MD, FAANS Houston MicroNeurosurgery - Houston, TX Abstract The Misonix BoneScalpel is a novel ultrasonic surgical device that cuts bone and spares soft tissues. This relative selectivity for bone ablation makes BoneScalpel ideally suited for spine applications where bone must be cut adjacent to dura and neural structures. Extensive clinical experience with this device confirms its safety and efficacy in spine surgery. The aim of this report is to describe BoneScalpel’s mechanism of action and the basis for its tissue selectivity, review the expanding clinical experience with BoneScalpel (including the author’s personal experience), and provide a few recommendations and recipes for en bloc bone removal with this revolutionary device. 1 Introduction Mechanism of Action The advent of ultrasonic bone dissection is as Ultrasound is a wave of mechanical energy significant to spine surgery today as the adoption of propagated through a medium such as air, water, or pneumatic drill was several decades ago. Power drills tissue at a specific frequency range. The frequency is liberated spine surgeons from the slow, repetitive, typically above 20,000 oscillations per second fatigue inducing, and occasionally dangerous (20 kHz) and exceeds the audible frequency range, maneuvers that are characteristic of manually hence the name ultrasound. In surgical applications, operated rongeurs. Now ultrasonic dissection with this ultrasonic energy is transferred from a blade to BoneScalpel empowers the surgeon to cut bone with tissue molecules, which begin to vibrate in response. an accuracy and safety that surpasses that of the Whether tissue molecules can tolerate this energy power drill.

Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Tampa, USA 5. Anesthesia and Interventional Pain Management, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Ormond Beach, USA Corresponding author: Eric Catlin, [email protected] Abstract To date, no case studies specifically describing a curved kyphoplasty needle becoming lodged in the vertebral body with the inability to be withdrawn have been reported. We describe a case involving a single level balloon kyphoplasty with a curved coaxial needle during which the cement delivery device could not be removed after cavity filling. In this case, a board-certified interventional pain management specialist was performing balloon kyphoplasty for an L2 osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. The tools utilized in this procedure included flexible curved instruments designed to traverse the vertebral body and achieve uniform cement distribution through a unipedicular approach. Cannulation and cavity formation were completed without issue. Upon conclusion of cement filling, the curved cement delivery device was unable to be removed. After several attempts to remove the needle and consultation with both the device company and local spine surgeons, it was agreed that the device should be cut at the level of entry into the pedicle and left as a retained foreign object.
