RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: In the lateral window approach for a maxillary sinus bone graft, there has been considerable controversy regarding the placement of a barrier membrane over the osteotomy site. In particular, when there is no damage to the Schneiderian membrane, clinicians should decide whether to use a barrier membrane or not, considering the benefits and costs. This study presents the clinical cases to demonstrate that only repositioning the detached window can lead to satisfactory bony healing of the grafted material without using a barrier membrane in the lateral approach for a maxillary sinus bone graft. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five consecutive patients were treated with the same surgical procedures. After performing the antrostomy on the lateral maxillary wall using a round carbide bur and diamond bur, the bony window was detached by a gentle levering action. After confirming no perforation of the Schneiderian membrane, the grafting procedure was carried out the detached window of the lateral maxillary wall was repositioned over the grafted material without using a barrier membrane. A gross examination was carried out at the postoperative 6 month re-entry, and the the preoperative and postoperative dental computed tomography (CT) at re-entry were compared. RESULTS: All the procedures in the 5 patients went on to uneventful healing with no complications associated with the bone graft. Satisfactory bone regeneration without the interference of fibrous tissue on the gap between the repositioned window and lateral wall of the maxillary sinus was observed in the postoperative 6 month re-entry. The CT findings at re-entry revealed the, reconstruction of the external cortical plate including repositioned bony window. In addition, the loss of the discontinuity of the lateral maxillary wall was confirmed. CONCLUSION: This preliminary report showed that the detached window, which was just repositioned on the grafted material, could function as a barrier membrane in the lateral approach for a maxillary sinus bone graft. Therefore additional morphometric and histologic studies will be needed.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: As a membrane protein at the insertion site of the slit diaphragm (SD) complex in podocyte foot processes, podocin has been reported to act as a scaffolding protein required to maintain or regulate the structural integrity of the SD. In order to identify proteins that associate or interact with podocin, we screened a mouse kidney complementary DNA (cDNA) library using a yeast 2-hybrid system. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 1) The full-length cDNA of podocin from the mouse kidney was amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), 2) The PCR product was cloned into a pGBKT7 vector, pGBKT7-podocin, 3) After the pGBKT7-podocin was transformed into AH109, the AH109/pGBKT7-podocin product was obtained, 4) The mouse kidney cDNA library was transformed into the AH109/pGBKT7-podocin and screened by selection steps, 5) Next, twelve clones were cultured and isolated, 6) The yeast-purified plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli (E. coli) by heat shock, and 7) To identify the activation domain (AD)/library inserts, we digested them with Him III, and the fragments were then sequenced. RESULTS: 12 positive clones that interacted with podocin were obtained by screening a mouse kidney cDNA library using pGBKT7-podocin. Among them, only 4 clones were found to function at the podocyte where podocin is present. CONCLUSION: Additional studies are needed to clarify the role and interaction with podocin and candidates.

RESUMO

This study is to compare the effect of wound healing using three different types of chitin, which include the shapes of sponge, velvet, thick non-woven fabrics, and thin non-woven fabrics. The sponge type had more capacity to absorb the first discharge of a wound than the velvet type and the two non-woven fabrics types. Instead of absorbing the discharge effectively, the velvet type showed a difficulty to take off the dressing stuff from a wound since it was solidly stuck to the wound. The sponge type showed less infiltration of inflammatory cells, producing angiogenesis and fibroblast faster than any other types. Next, the thick non-woven fabrics type was a little more effective than the thin non-woven fabrics type: However, there was no difference between two types. The velvet type sustained the infiltration of inflammatory cells for the longest duration, producing slower angiogenesis and fibroblast. In wound contraction and wound healing, the sponge type was most effective with statistical significance than any other types(p0.05). In conclusion, the sponge type showed the best effectiveness to absorb the early discharge, facilitating the progress of inflammatory phase to increase the healing rate. It induced an early healing of wound caused by wound contraction rather than by wound epithelization.

RESUMO

Whistle deformity is deficiency of vermilion of the upper lip. It is a common sequelae of primary lip repair. Many methods have been devised to correct this deformity, most using neighbouring normal tissue of the upper lip. Methods such as Z-plasty, Double rotation, V-Y advancement flap, etc., have been commonly used for the correction of unilateral whistle deformity. We found that the V-Y advancement flap with transposition of deepithelialized tissue was more effective for the correction of whistle deformity than the original V-Y advancement flap. We named this new method 'Modified V-Y advancement flap'. The technique has been performed in 5 patients, 9 to 23 years of age, each with a whistle deformity. One years and six months was the longest follow-up period. Satisfactory results have been obtained and here the authors reported along with a review of the current literature.
