Analyzing the Effectiveness of the Push-Up Method for Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Preliminary Report [PDF]
Background and objective As the standard of care for idiopathic scoliosis, observation is indicated for patients with curves between 10° and 25° who are still growing. However, if any treatment capable of controlling curve progression were offered at such an early stage, it might reduce the number of patients requiring orthotic therapy and, ultimately,

Push up method of median mandibulotomy a new surgical approach to the parapharyngeal space.
副咽頭間隙へのアプローチ法として下顎 Push up 法の手術手技について概説した。この方法のポイントは, (1) 口腔底の粘膜切開は下顎骨離断時に必要な最小限にとどめ切り進まないこと, (2) 離断した下顎骨は swing back せず上方へ押し上げること, の2点である。短時間の手術操作で大きな術野を確保でき, 開口および咀嚼機能への影響はきわめて少なく, 知覚障害や神経損傷の危険がない。容易に mandibular swing に移行することができるのも利点であるがオトガイから下口唇にかけて手術痕が残ることが唯一の欠点である。この Push up 法は副咽頭間隙に発生したほとんどの良性腫瘍の摘除手術に有効な方法である。ただその限界は腫瘍の高さによって決定され ...
