3D‐Printed Sinus Lift Training Models as an Educational Tool for Dental Students

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate whether 3D‐printed models can be an inexpensive and suitable way to train dental students to perform a sinus lift. Methods The sinus lift model was created using CAD/CAM technology. Approximately one year prior to their final examination, thirty‐one dental students evaluated and tested ...

An Exploratory Comparative Analysis of Mixed Reality Simulation Versus 3D‐Printed Models for Undergraduate Training in Third Molar Removal

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives To compare the effectiveness of MR simulation and 3D‐printed models in training undergraduate students in wisdom tooth removal, and to assess students’ perceptions of the MR simulator. Methods Students trained first on either the MR simulator or 3D‐printed plastic models and then repeated the training using the other method ...

Partial Failure of a Perforator Free Flap Can be Salvaged by a Second Perforator Free Flap.

, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Perforator flaps as an innovative method for soft tissue transfer that maximizes function preservation, were originally introduced primarily as free flaps. Their reliability and versatility has been found to not differ from other sources of

Impact of Body Mass Index on Surgical Outcomes After Delayed Breast Reconstruction

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Obesity is associated with increased postoperative morbidity in surgery. However, its specific impact on complications following delayed breast reconstruction (DBR) remains insufficiently documented. Methods We conducted a retrospective single‐center study including patients who underwent first‐time delayed breast ...

The Facial Artery Perforator Flap

, 2023
BACKGROUND: Reconstruction of facial melanoma defects can be challenging. Large defects of the midface, cheek, and nasolabial fold are often reconstructed using a cervicofacial flap which requires significant flap elevation and undermining.

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.
