A CBCT Based Three-Dimensional Assessment of Mandibular Posterior Region for Evaluating the Possibility of Bypassing the Inferior Alveolar Nerve While Placing Dental Implants

Diagnostics, 2020
A high rate of nerve injury and related consequences are seen during implant placement in the posterior mandibular arch. An approach has been proposed to avoid nerve injury by dodging the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) while placing an implant.

Guided transpositional bone blocks in esthetic zone: Surgical technique and case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The ultimate objective of implant dentistry is to position the implant in a three‐dimensional, prosthetic‐driven location. This case highlights a guided approach for harvesting and positioning an autogenous bone block to restore a horizontal bone defect in the anterior maxilla.

Focal Loss Analysis of Nerve Fiber Layer Reflectance for Glaucoma Diagnosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Purpose: To evaluate nerve fiber layer (NFL) reflectance for glaucoma diagnosis. Methods: Participants were imaged with 4.5X4.5-mm volumetric disc scans using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). The normalized NFL reflectance map was processed by an azimuthal filter to reduce directional reflectance bias due to variation of beam ...

Automatic Ultrasound Image Segmentation of Supraclavicular Nerve Using Dilated U-Net Deep Learning Architecture [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Automated object recognition in medical images can facilitate medical diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, we automatically segmented supraclavicular nerves in ultrasound images to assist in injecting peripheral nerve blocks. Nerve blocks are generally used for pain treatment after surgery, where ultrasound guidance is used to inject local ...

Surgical Approaches to Pre‐Auricular Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinomas Extending to the Temporal Bone

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Standardized surgical approaches to advanced pre‐auricular cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCC) are lacking. Methods Fifty–four patients who underwent lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) for pre‐auricular cSCC were grouped into “Levels” of increasing disease spread.

Dental implantology and fibrous dysplasia: A 6‐year follow‐up case report and a literature review

Oral Surgery, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 126-132, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Aim It is unclear if fibrous dysplasia (FD) represents a contraindication for implant borne rehabilitation, and only two successful cases are reported in the literature with a 4–2‐year follow‐up. The present paper discusses this issue reporting a full‐arch maxillary rehabilitation with a >5‐year follow‐up.

An unusual anatomical variation of the inferior alveolar nerve

Anatomy & Cell Biology, 2020
A number of studies have previously shown variations of inferior alveolar, however, only a few reports focused on nearby the foramen ovale. In a formalin fixed cadaver, we identified three minor branches (anterior, middle, and posterior branches) arising from the main trunk of the mandibular nerve adjacent to the foramen ovale, passing lateral to the ...

Aggressive Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Setting of GATA2 Deficiency

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background GATA2 deficiency is a rare genetic disorder associated with hematologic, infectious, and neoplastic complications. We report a case of a patient with GATA2 deficiency who developed aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck, an atypical manifestation of this condition.
