Estimation of Titanium Levels in Blood Following Reconstruction of Post-Craniotomy Defect by Titanium Mesh Using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES).

Introduction: Titanium and its alloys are the most popular choice of materials for the reconstruction of craniofacial defects. They have lighter weight and are nonferromagnetic, which makes them an advantage in cranial defect reconstruction. Although the formed oxide layer makes them corrosion-resistant, levels of titanium in blood have been seen in trace amounts.

Interim management of Pierre Robin sequence using a custom-made face mask.

Pierre Robin sequence poses a great challenge for anesthesiologists during laryngoscopy and intubation, making oxygenation and ventilation difficult. The role of early surgical intervention is recommended for the improvement of the airway and overall survival of the neonate. The situation becomes even more challenging, when the neonate may not be fit for such surgical interventions.

Traumatic Myositis Ossificans of Temporalis Muscle: Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis and Case Reports.

Introduction: Traumatic myositis ossificans is rare pathology affecting muscles/soft tissue. Its involvement in temporalis muscle is rarely reported in literature. The aetiopathogenesis is unknown, the diagnosis is based on clinco-radiological findings.
