[Techniques for imaging optic disc vasculature in glaucomatous optic neuropathy: A review of the literature].

The anatomy and vasculature of the optic nerve head are complex and subject to numerous variations. The main risk factor for glaucomatous optic neuropathy is elevated intraocular pressure, but many other factors have been identified. A vascular component seems to play an important role in the pathogenesis and/or progression of glaucomatous optic neuropathy, either under the influence of ocular hypertension or as an independent risk factor, particularly as in normal tension glaucoma (NTG).

Aberration compensation in Doppler holography of the human eye fundus by subaperture signal correlation.

The process of obtaining images of capillary vessels in the human eye's fundus using Doppler holography encounters difficulties due to ocular aberrations. To enhance the accuracy of these images, it is advantageous to apply an adaptive aberration correction technique. This study focuses on numerical Shack-Hartmann, which employs sub-pupil correlation as the wavefront sensing method.

Sinocutaneous Fistula: A Long-term Complication After Surgical Feminization of the Forehead.

Facial feminization surgery is part of the process of treating patients with gender dysphoria. Forehead contouring, a common part of facial feminization surgery, modifies masculine facial features of the upper third, especially decreasing the thickness of their frontal sinuses and the orbital bossing. Forehead contouring is considered a safe procedure with minor complications and high patient satisfaction.

Effectiveness of using 2D atlas and 3D PDF as a teaching tool in anatomy lectures in initial learners: a randomized controlled trial in a medical school.

Background: Anatomy is a crucial part of medical education, and there have been attempts to improve this field by utilizing various methods. With the advancement of technology, three-dimensional (3D) materials have gained popularity and become a matter of debate about their effectiveness compared to two-dimensional (2D) sources. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of 3D PDFs compared to 2D atlases.

Safety and efficacy of Amplatzer duct occluder II and konar-MF™ VSD occluder in the closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects in children weighing less than 10 kg.

Introduction: Device closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSD) is a successful off-label treatment alternative. We aim to report and compare the outcomes of pmVSD closure in children weighing less than 10 kg using Amplatzer Duct Occluder II (ADOII) and Konar-MF VSD Occluder (MFO) devices.

Methods: Retrospective clinical data review of 52 children with hemodynamically significant pmVSD, and sent for transcatheter closure using ADOII and MFO, between January 2018 and January 2023.
