The posterior thoracic approach in echocardiography

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1979
AbstractEchocardiograms were recorded using a left posterior thoracic approach in 17 patients with left pleural effusion. Comparison of these records with those obtained using the conventional technique in the same patients revealed that the left posterior thoracic approach yielded records of adequate quality in all patients. The mitral valve, the left

Bilateral Nephrectomy by the Posterior Approach

European Urology, 1980
The experience with 94 patients undergoing bilateral nephrectomy suggests that the posterior retroperitoneal approach has lower morbidity and mortality than transabdominal procedures. In addition, the lack of transgression of the peritoneal cavity facilitates the possible use of chronic peritoneal dialysis in the future management of these patients ...

A posterior approach to the presacral mass

World Journal of Surgery, 1983
AbstractMass lesions in the presacral space are not readily accessible from the transabdominal approach. The posterior transcoccygeal technique is a nearly ideal approach to the presacral mass, and allows the combined use of abdominosacral resection for more extensive tumors.Four patients with presacral mass, which later proved to be benign cystic ...

Posterior Approach for Glenoid Fracture

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1997
Intra-articular glenoid cavity fracture is very rare. We describe an original surgical technique for depressed intra-articular glenoid fracture used in three patients. The glenoid was exposed by the posterior approach. The anterior fragment was reduced by a hook through the joint cavity and an elevator device through the window, which was performed ...

POSTERIOR TRANSPETROSAL APPROACH

Operative Neurosurgery, 2007
We describe our surgical posterior transpetrosal technique, particularly the transcrusal variant for lesions involving the upper and middle clivus, petroclival regions, and lesions that involve both the posterior and middle fossae.An outline of the posterior transpetrosal technique involved, particularly the transcrusal variant, is described. Important

The transverse posterior approach to the neck

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1985
Traditional posterior approaches to the neck use a vertical craniocaudal incision which often leaves an unsightly scar. An incision along Langer's transverse lines of tension divides only the cross-fibres of the dermis and we have found the results of this approach encouraging: wound healing was uncomplicated and the cosmetic appearance excellent.

Posterior Approach to Axis Instability

2016
Many pathologies can cause instability of the cranio-vertebral junction (CVJ). Among the most common diseases must be considered thraumatisms, neoplasms, inflammation, but also congenital malformations. Instability of the CVJ is a potentially life-threatening condition and improper treatment can lead to severe neurological deficits as well as ...

The posterior approach to pyloric sonography

Pediatric Radiology, 2000
Overlying bowel gas or gastric distension may occasionally hinder the sonographic diagnosis of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. To address this problem, a novel approach for obtaining posterior views of the pylorus is reported. Utilizing this approach may decrease the incidence of nondiagnostic pyloric ultrasonography.

Extensile Posterior Approach to the Radius

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2000
An extensile posterior approach to the radius was studied on 20 forearm anatomic specimen upper limbs. The skin incision followed a line from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus to a point corresponding to the middle of the posterior aspect of the wrist.
