Relevance. Anatomical and functional disorders in congenital clefts may be various. Their severity depends on the cleft size and on the combination of a cleft lip with an alveolar cleft. Alveolar cleft bone grafting (ACBG) is one of the most important surgeries for patients with cleft lip and palate rehabilitation. The study aimed to analyze the results of alveolar cleft bone grafting in various age groups, summarizing the available data and supplementing them with our own experience.Materials and methods. In our clinic, 488 patients of different ages (from 4 to 18 years old), including patients with bilateral clefts, underwent ACBG.Results. The result analysis showed the time of surgery should depend not on the child's age but on the orthodontic preparation of the child for ACBG.Conclusion. The literature data and our experience allowed us to develop indications for ACBG at different ages
Periodic disease - hereditary disease spreaded among the ancient peoples of the Mediterranean coast. The questionnaire and retrospective analysis of manifestations of periodic disease for patients living in the Russian Federation was composed in the child-maxillofacial department of the MSMSU named after A.I. Evdokimov. The research of medical histories of patients let us notice that every patient needs individual treatment and prophylaxis of frequent attacks. Nowadays Russian pediatricians are poorly informed about the periodic disease. As a consequence, we have detected a large number of mistakes in the diagnosis.
Воспалительные заболевания слюнных желез составляют 13-15% от всех воспалительных процессов челюстно-лицевой области у детей, при этом на долю хронического паренхиматозного паротита (ХПП) приходится более 85% [1]. Первые описания воспалительных заболеваний слюнных желез встречаются в трудах Гиппократа, датируемых еще 460-370 гг. до н.э. [2]. Также упоминания о парот ите встречались в трудах античных врачей А. Цельса и К. Галена. Более подробное изучение заболеваний слюнных желез на
Ultrasound examination of the skin was performed on 63 women, using a 10–22 MHz high frequency linear transducer on the scanning surface in B-mode and Color Doppler Imaging (CDI) mode with the scanning depth of 7 mm, as well as a 6–18 MHz transducer in B-mode with the scanning depth of 15 mm. The thickness of the dermis was measured between the epidermis and the subcutaneous adipose tissue in the middle and lower third of the face at standard points. To determine the border between the dermis and hypodermis, we used the subdermal vascular plexus as an additional anatomical landmark, which was well visualized in the CDI mode. Comparison of three or more groups of independent quantitative parameters was carried out using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) for looking for dependencies in the data obtained by determining the significance of differences in means. The level of significance was presented according to F. Fisher’s criterion. As a result of the analysis of variance, a significance level was 0.15, based on which it was concluded that there is no difference in measuring the thickness of the dermis with 6–18 MHz and 10–22 MHz high frequency transducers. The optimal scanning depth for measuring the skin thickness is 7–15 mm. Evaluation of the skin microcirculation should be carried out in the Doppler mode at a pulse recurrence frequency of less than 1 kHz.
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.
