We have opened our Congress to the world of aesthetic plastic surgery and are joined by the Japan Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, our local hosts. The planning committees have worked for several years to prepare a superb scientific program and social events that truly represent Japanese hospitality. The Scientific Program Committee, headed by Dr. Kunihiko Nohira from Japan and Dr. Lina Triana from Colombia, has designed a diverse educational program. We are especially honored to welcome the 2012 Nobel Prize winner in Medicine and Physiology, Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, as the Keynote Speaker during the Opening Ceremony. For the first time, we are including a free half day program for Residents and Fellows on Sunday, October 23rd and a full day session entitled ISAPS Business School – both new features of ISAPS Congresses. The social program includes special events nearly every evening. We are welcoming registrants from a record number of 85 countries and are anxious to show you Kyoto, full of autumn colors and so many unique things to see. If this is your first time in Japan, as we know is the case for many of our guests, we know you will be amazed by the seventeen UNESCO World Heritage Sites here in Kyoto, and pleased to find friendly people who are glad to show you our special culture. I especially thank all the companies who are exhibiting with us. Many have come from Europe and the United States to be here, but we have quite a few Japanese companies exhibiting, too. Please show them your appreciation by visiting with them in our exhibit hall. We will again have lunch time seminars each day that add another dimension to our education program. There is no fee to attend these daily sessions. Support our exhibitors and sponsors as they support us. I hope you enjoy your stay in Kyoto and perhaps more of Japan while you are here. Susumu Takayanagi, MD, PhD President 7 Dear Colleagues, The ISAPS Education Council and Scientific Program Committee welcome you to the ISAPS Congress in Kyoto. We have developed a program that will thoroughly engage you in an exciting and interactive learning experience. We have more than 30 panels including joint sessions with EASAPS (European Association of Societies of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery), ASAPS (American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery), JSAPS (Japan Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) and OSAPS (Oriental Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery). These combined panels promote our mutual understanding and expand our friendly relations among related societies. Our primary mission is Aesthetic Education Worldwide. This Congress brings the world of plastic surgery together under one roof every two years. As part of our expanding, innovative education program, we will provide a special ISAPS Course for Residents and Fellows on Sunday especially for young plastic surgeons. We have also included a one-day ISAPS Business School on Wednesday for enhancing your practice. Four Master Classes will be presented each morning including sixteen topic-specific sessions over the course of the Congress. More than 200 free papers will be presented throughout the program, and seven special lunch-time seminars will provide information presented by our supporting companies. The 23rd Biennial Congress of ISAPS is finally here. More than 220 distinguished faculty have come from 47 countries and will make this meeting unlike most you have attended in your career. Registration includes attendees from 85 countries making this a truly international educational experience in aesthetic surgery. Enjoy the congress and the great social activities our local hosts have arranged for us. Kunihiko Nohira, MD Scientific Program Chair 8 Message from the Kyoto City Mayor Welcome to Kyoto! It is with great pleasure that I, along with the 1.47 million citizens of Kyoto, welcome you to our city. The ISAPS Congress is where renowned plastic surgeons from around the world gather and share cutting-edge medical technologies and research results. We are honored that you chose Kyoto for this congress, especially because Kyoto is the first local government in Japan that has developed a strategy to attract meetings, incentive travel, conventions and events and has made the strategy one of our most important measures. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to ISAPS President, Dr. Susumu Takayanagi, and those who have Kyoto, Mayor, Daisaku Kadokawa worked with him to create this event. Kyoto is a city well-known for international tourism and culture that has numerous historic assets including World Heritage sites and a variety of attractions such as arts, traditional crafts, food and hot springs.

  • Perforated Eardrum
    Vinod K. Anand, MD, FACS Nose and Sinus Clinic Perforated Eardrum A perforated eardrum is a hole or rupture m the eardrum, a thin membrane which separated the ear canal and the middle ear. The medical term for eardrum is tympanic membrane. The middle ear is connected to the nose by the eustachian tube. A perforated eardrum is often accompanied by decreased hearing and occasional discharge. Paih is usually not persistent. Causes of Eardrum Perforation The causes of perforated eardrum are usually from trauma or infection. A perforated eardrum can occur: if the ear is struck squarely with an open hand with a skull fracture after a sudden explosion if an object (such as a bobby pin, Q-tip, or stick) is pushed too far into the ear canal. as a result of hot slag (from welding) or acid entering the ear canal Middle ear infections may cause pain, hearing loss and spontaneous rupture (tear) of the eardrum resulting in a perforation. In this circumstance, there may be infected or bloody drainage from the ear. In medical terms, this is called otitis media with perforation. On rare occasions a small hole may remain in the eardrum after a previously placed P.E. tube (pressure equalizing) either falls out or is removed by the physician. Most eardrum perforations heal spontaneously within weeks after rupture, although some may take up to several months. During the healing process the ear must be protected from water and trauma. Those eardrum perforations which do not heal on their own may require surgery. Effects on Hearing from Perforated Eardrum Usually, the larger the perforation, the greater the loss of hearing.

Burst eardrums are a major cause of conductive hearing loss — when sounds can’t pass from the outer to the inner ear. Most burst eardrums are caused by infections or trauma.

In particular, if the slant of the palpebral fissure is raised and the horizontal dimension of the palpebral fissure is short, adjusting the slant of the pal- pebral fissure through lateral canthoplasty can achieve an enlargement of eye width and smoother features. Depending on the patient’s condition, even better results can be achieved if this procedure is performed in conjunction with other procedures, such as double eyelid- plasty, epicanthoplasty, eye roll formation surgery, fat graft, and facial bone contouring sur- gery. In this paper, the authors will introduce in detail their surgical method for a cosmetic lateral canthoplasty that lengthens the lateral canthal angle and corrects the outer tail of the eyes, in order to ease the unfavorable impression.

Please improve this article by introducing more precise citations. (May 2011) Cataract surgery Intervention Cataract in Human Eye- Magnified view seen on examination with a slit lamp ICD-9-CM 13.19 MeSH D002387 Cataract surgery is the removal of the natural lens of the eye (also called "crystalline lens") that has developed an opacification, which is referred to as a cataract. Metabolic changes of the crystalline lens fibers over time lead to the development of the cataract and loss of transparency, causing impairment or loss of vision. Many patients' first symptoms are strong glare from lights and small light sources at night, along with reduced acuity at low light levels. During cataract surgery, a patient's cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with a synthetic lens to restore the lens's transparency.[1] Following surgical removal of the natural lens, an artificial intraocular lens implant is inserted (eye surgeons say that the lens is "implanted"). Cataract surgery is generally performed by an ophthalmologist (eye surgeon) in an ambulatory (rather than inpatient) setting, in a surgical center or hospital, using local anesthesia (either topical, peribulbar, or retrobulbar), usually causing little or no discomfort to the patient. Well over 90% of operations are successful in restoring useful vision, with a low complication rate.[2] Day care, high volume, minimally invasive, small incision phacoemulsification with quick post-op recovery has become the standard of care in cataract surgery all over the world.

    Division of Pediatric Otolaryngology Information on Tympanostomy Tubes Tympanostomy tubes are small plastic or metal tubes that are placed into the tympanic membrane or ear drum. How long will the tube stay in place? Tubes usually fall out of the ear in 6 months- 2 years. If they remain in longer than 2 to 3 years they are sometimes removed. What is involved with Tympanostomy tube placement? This surgery is usually done under general anesthesia. The eardrum is examined using a microscope. A small hole is made in the ear drum called a myringotomy, fluid is removed, and the tube is placed. Tube in the eardrum What medical conditions are treated with tubes? Recurrent middle ear infections or frequent acute otitis media Otitis media with effusion or fluid in middle ear associated with hearing loss Eustachian tube dysfunction causing hearing loss or eardrum structure changes What is the Eustachian tube? This is the canal that links the middle ear with the throat. This tube allows air into the middle ear and drainage of fluid. This tube grows in width and length until children are about 5 years old. Reasons that the Eustachian tube may not work properly: Viral illness, exposure to allergens or tobacco smoke may lead to swelling of the eustachian tube resulting in fluid buildup in the middle ear. Children with cleft palate and craniofacial syndromes like Down’s syndrome may have poor eustachian tube function. How will Tympanostomy tube help my child? They allow air to re-enter middle ear space They reduce the number and severity of infections They improve hearing loss cause by middle ear fluid Why is adenoidectomy sometimes done with the Tympanostomy tubes?

  • Audiometric Findings with Voluntary Tensor Tympani Contraction Brandon Wickens1 , Duncan Floyd2 and Manohar Bance3*
    Wickens et al. Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery (2017) 46:2 DOI 10.1186/s40463-016-0182-y ORIGINALRESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Audiometric findings with voluntary tensor tympani contraction Brandon Wickens1 , Duncan Floyd2 and Manohar Bance3* Abstract Background: Tensor tympani contraction may have a "signature" audiogram. This study demonstrates audiometric findings during voluntary tensor tympani contraction. Methods: Five volunteers possessing the ability to voluntarily contract their tensor tympani muscles were identified and enrolled. Tensor tympani contraction was confirmed with characteristic tympanometry findings. Study subjects underwent conventional audiometry. Air conduction and bone conduction threshold testing was performed with and without voluntary tensor tympani contraction. Main outcome measure: Changes in air conduction and bone conduction thresholds during voluntary tensor tympani contraction. Results: Audiometric results demonstrate a low frequency mixed hearing loss resulting from tensor tympani contraction. Specifically, at 250 Hz, air conduction thresholds increased by 22 dB and bone conduction thresholds increased by 10 dB. Conclusions: Previous research has demonstrated a low frequency conductive hearing loss in the setting of tensor tympanic contraction. This is the first study to demonstrate a low frequency mixed hearing loss associated with tensor tympani contraction. This finding may aid in the diagnosis of disorders resulting from abnormal tensor tympani function. Tensor tympani contraction
