The aim of decompression surgery is to open the affected area and nerve sheath, and to release pressure. This reduces compression on the nerve fibers, improves blood circulation and minimizes damage to distal nerve fibers. Several surgicala approaches are described to achieve decompression: Middle cranial fossa approach [2] Translabarynthine ...
The outcome following the surgery is usually favorable. Successful resolution of PAES occurs in 77 percent of cases. [23] Surgical complications include deep vein thrombosis, hematoma, wound infection, or seroma.

Although there are more than 100 species of lemurs, the ring-tailed lemur is arguably the most well-known thanks to King Julien in the hit children’s film Madagascar. His need to “move it ...
The translabyrinthine approach was developed by William F. House, M.D., [2] who began doing dissections in the laboratory with the aid of magnification and subsequently developed the first middle cranial fossa and then the translabyrinthine approach for the removal of acoustic neuroma.
Caldwell-Luc surgery, Caldwell-Luc operation, also known as Caldwell-Luc antrostomy, and Radical antrostomy, is an operation to remove irreversibly damaged mucosa of the maxillary sinus. It is done when maxillary sinusitis is not cured by medication or other non-invasive technique. The approach is mainly from the anterior wall of the maxilla bone.
Cotswold Wildlife Park has successfully bred one of the most endangered lemurs in Madagascar. The as-yet-unsexed and unnamed youngster was born to breeding male Raphael and female Bijou at ...
