Preoperative measuring for planning a TPLO osteotomy is recommended. Techniques A and B in the current study were clinically practical and significantly more accurate compared to technique C.
Summary:
The reversed glove sleeve technique is a simple, available, reproducible, and cost-effective method of achieving “no touch” breast implant insertion. It allows a new glove to be used for each side, thus reducing the risk of contamination by reusing a sleeve/funnel for the subsequent implant insertion. The link between bacterial contamination of breast implants and capsular contracture is established. Further prospective evaluation of this technique is underway to show if there is benefit in reducing the risk of capsular contracture.
Key Clinical MessageAn 18-year-old was presented with a large inflamed appendix (compressed by the instrument) and a spermatic cord with right undescended testicle (cryptorchidism). Patients who undergo orchiopexy after age 12 years, or no orchiopexy, are 2–6 times as likely to have testicular cancer as those who undergo prepubertal orchiopexy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
