Purpose: To evaluate the clinical results and technique of sinus membrane hydraulic elevation followed by bone graft and implant placement simultaneously.

Methods: Twenty-five patients were involved in the study (male:15, female: 10, age: 40-62 yrs). The mean residual ridge was (4.25±1.12) mm. Clinical examination were performed and radiographs were taken to evaluated the outcomes.

Results: The mean elevated height was (8.50±2.12) mm and 25 implants were placed. Only one implant was lost due to infection 3 weeks after operation because of diabetes. Only minor complications were observed postoperatively in the remaining patients. Twenty-four patients were satisfactorily restored with the follow-up period of 12-18 months.

Conclusions: The technique of sinus membrane hydraulic elevation followed by bone graft and implant placement simultaneously displays minor complication, minimal discomfort and excellent success rate.

Cochlear Implant Electrode Placement and Music Perception.

JAMA Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

January 2025

Department of Hearing and Speech Sciences, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee.

Importance: Cochlear implants enable improvements in speech perception, but music perception outcomes remain variable. Image-guided cochlear implant programming has emerged as a potential programming strategy for increasing the quality of spectral information delivered through the cochlear implant to improve outcomes.

Objectives: To perform 2 experiments, the first of which modeled the variance in music perception scores as a function of electrode positioning factors, and the second of which evaluated image-guided cochlear implant programming as a strategy to improve music perception with a cochlear implant.

Background: Hepatic artery infusion pump (HAIP) chemotherapy is a locoregional treatment for intrahepatic malignancies. HAIPs are surgically implanted, and the catheter tip is typically inserted into a ligated gastroduodenal artery stump. Potential complications at the catheter insertion site include dehiscence, pseudoaneurysm or extravasation, and adjacent hepatic arterial stenosis and thrombosis.

Purpose: To evaluate the 12-month rotational stability and outcomes of V4c toric Implantable Collamer Lenses (TICLs) (STAAR Surgical) located at two different lens orientations (horizontal or oblique).

Methods: This retrospective study included a total of 403 eyes with TICL implantation, enrolled between January 2021 and December 2022, that were divided into two groups based on the minimum intended angle off the horizontal axis: horizontal with 263 eyes at an angle ±22.5 degrees or less and oblique with 140 eyes at a minimum intended angle of greater than ±22.

Dental implant in esthetic zone: A case report.

SAGE Open Med Case Rep

January 2025

PhD in Health Science Program, Faculty of Medicine, Mahasarakham University, Mahasarakham, Thailand.

This case report emphasizes the complexities involved in dental implant placement within the anterior esthetic zone, focusing on the integration of advanced surgical techniques and meticulous prosthetic design for optimal esthetic and functional results. A 28-year-old male presented with the absence of the upper left central incisor, which had been extracted 5 years prior due to fracture. Clinical and radiographic assessments indicated normal alveolar bone levels; however, the esthetic demands required a specialized approach.
