Average and Maximum Papilla Heights around Dental Implants in the Anterior Maxillary Region: A Retrospective Clinical Study.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the average and maximum height of the papilla around maxillary anterior implants in respect of neighboring structures and location of implants.

Materials And Methods: 92 dental implants from 63 patients were investigated in this study. Those implants were placed in the anterior maxillary region and had been loaded for a minimum of one year.

Percutaneous Drainage with Injection of Ethanol as the Sclerosing Agent for Treatment of Simple Kidney Cysts: A New Modification.

The simple kidney cyst is the most common type of benign kidney tumor in adults and it is usually asymptomatic. Symptomatic cysts are treated with percutaneous aspiration with or without sclerosing agent injection, laparoscopic decortication, or open surgery in rare cases. Considering the probable complications of anesthesia in open surgery and laparoscopic methods, we used an innovative method of percutaneous aspiration, insertion of a single J draining catheter for 24 hours, and injection of sclerosing agents, leaving the agent inside the cyst, while the catheter was removed immediately.
