Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on a new interlocking 3D miniplate designed for mandibular fracture fixation, evaluating how quickly and comfortably surgeons could learn to use it compared to a standard miniplate.
- - Nine experienced plastic surgeons were tested on their ability to apply the new device and assess factors like application time, comfort level, and the mechanical stability of both miniplate types.
- - Results showed that repeated practice with the interlocking 3D miniplate led to increased comfort, faster application times, and comparable stability to the standard miniplate, indicating a relatively easy learning curve for trained surgeons.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the development of interlocking 3D miniplates designed to provide better stability for complex mandible fractures while avoiding damage to vital structures like dental roots and nerves.
- It involved a design process that included finite element analysis to assess stress states in both human and goat mandible models under various conditions, confirming the design's feasibility for real-world application.
- Biomechanical testing showed that the interlocking 3D miniplates reduced displacement significantly compared to standard miniplates, indicating their potential for improved stability in managing mandibular fractures, though further research is needed.
Introduction: Conjoined twins are a rare medical phenomenon that poses unique challenges for surgeons. Separation of conjoined twins involves multidisciplinary teamwork, complex medical management and surgical planning, and multi-stage operations and often still has a high mortality and morbidity rate. In the times of the COVID-19 pandemic, separation of conjoined twins pose even greater challenges.

A large tumor involving the facial region will cause significant aesthetic and functional impairment and isn't always easy to treat surgically. A non-invasive treatment is needed for this condition.

Design: Randomized posttest-only control group design.
Setting: Animal Hospital at Bogor Agricultural Institute.
in the external genitalia (genital warts) is a sexually transmitted disease that is often caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). We report a case of giant genital in a 35-year-old male patient with HIV comorbidity treated by wide surgical excision. Excision defect was covered with split thickness skin graft (STSG) and double keystone flaps.
