Objective: The objective of this work was to study the feasibility of minimally invasive cochlear implantation under intraoperative computerized tomography-scan coupled to navigation.
Materials And Methods: Five human resin temporal bones (two adults and three children) were used. Initially, a temporal bone imaging was obtained by the intraoperative CT-scan coupled to the navigation (O-ARM).
Background: Tools for functional assessment of chronic low back pain (LBP) are lacking.
Objective: To determine the correlations and the responsiveness of the 400 m comfortable walk test (400 mCWT) and the 200 m fast-walk test (200 mFWT) in the functional assessment of a multimodal program.
Methods: One hundred and twenty-seven participants (68 females) with LBP and with or without radicular pain completed a Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale, a Sorensen test, a Shirado test, a 400 mCWT and a 200 mFWT, at baseline and at the end of the program.
Article Synopsis
- Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a global parasitic infection that impacts over a million people.
- Primary bone CE is extremely rare in humans, and vertebral involvement is even less common.
- This report documents the first case of primary vertebral CE in Burgundy, France.
Hypothesis: Percutaneous pedicle screw fixations (PPSF) are increasingly used in spine surgery, minimizing morbidity through less muscle breakdown but at the cost of intraoperative fluoroscopic guidance that generates high radiation exposure. Few studies have been conducted to measure them accurately.
Material And Methods: The objective of our study is to quantify, during a PPSF carried out in different experimented centers respecting current radiation protection recommendations, this irradiation at the level of the surgeon and the patient.
