Functional Outcomes in ACL Reconstruction: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing All-Inside and Transportal Techniques.

Introduction: The two techniques to fix a torn ACL are the Transportal and All-Inside Techniques. However, the argument about which method is better for functional outcomes keeps going on. The aim was to look at how well these two treatments worked and their effects.

Reconstruction of cranial defect with patient-specific implants: Four different cost-effective techniques.

Cranial defects secondary to trauma, surgery or pathological causes, result in large cranial imperfection, which affects the appearance of the patient as well as results in sinking flap syndrome. Rehabilitation of such a defect can be done using prosthetic options like custom-made polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cranial prosthesis or surgical options like outer table calvarial graft segments. It is usually observed that the conventional moulage impression of the defective site is the most difficult task.

Rehabilitation of Auricular Defect with Implant-Retained Auricular Prosthesis - A Case Report.

Rationale: Maxillofacial defect is of great concern physically, emotionally, and psychologically for a patient. However, it is an even bigger challenge for a team attempting rehabilitation, as a crucial decision has to be made between surgical approach and/or prosthetic rehabilitation. However, if both are combined, it will result in best of esthetics and function with ease of maintainance, resulting in a sucessful rehabilitation.

Green Synthesis, Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of Copper Oxide Nanomaterial Derived from .

Background: In the emerging field of nanotechnology, copper oxide (CuO) nanomaterials are considered to be one of the most important transition metal oxides owing to its fascinating properties. Its synthesis from green chemistry principles is gaining importance as next-generation antibiotics due to its simplicity, eco-friendliness, and cost-effectiveness. In the present study, CuO nanorods (CuO NRs) were synthesized from the aqueous fruit extract of and characterized using different analytical techniques.

Prosthetic Management of Microstomia with Customized Dynamic Splint.

Microstomia is a clinical condition of reduced mouth opening that can be acquired or congenital in origin. Problems associated with microstomia can be related to function, esthetics, or both. Management of microstomia due to facial burns is complex due to the presence of hypertrophic and contracture scars.

Rapid prototyping technology for cranioplasty: A case series.

Cranial vault defects may be acquired or congenital in origin. Rehabilitation of these patients often poses challenge to the operating team and prosthodontist. Polymethylmethacrylate is a commonly used alloplastic graft material which is used for the fabrication of cranial prosthesis.

Can an exostosis be free floating without any continuity to the underlying bone: A diagnostic dilemma.

Unlabelled: Osteochondroma or exostosis is the most common primary bone tumor containing both bone and cartilage. Soft tissue osteochondromas have been described at various locations, however, to the best of our knowledge, there is only a single case report of a soft tissue osteochondroma around the femoral neck. We, hereby report second such case.
