No. of bitstreams: 1 Sampaio_JoaoAugustoFerrazde_M.pdf: 2654905 bytes, checksum: 778c759d35636e8b578d9a090162b246 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2007 / Resumo: A artéria radial voltou a ser utilizada em larga escala como enxerto coronariano após 1992. Desde então, ela tem sido utilizada mundialmente, considerando que um enxerto coronariano arterial teoricamente teria maior durabilidade que um enxerto venoso. Porém, a artéria radial pode ser sede de doença aterosclerótica obstrutiva preexistente à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio. O objetivo desta dissertação foi determinar a freqüência de lesões ateroscleróticas obstrutivas e também lesões ateroscleróticas microscópicas em toda extensão das artérias radiais de 29 cadáveres com idade acima de 35 anos. Método: foram dissecadas ambas as artérias radiais dos cadáveres, em toda sua extensão, como se fossem ser utilizadas para cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio. Realizou-se angiograma com contraste nessas artérias a fim de detectar-se lesões ateroscleróticas obstrutivas. Em seguida foram retirados 3 fragmentos de cada artéria(proximal, medial, distal), para análise histopatológica. Os fragmentos foram fixados e incluídos em parafina, submetidos à coloração com hematoxilina-eosina, para identificação histológica de lesões ateroscleróticas e pré ateroscleróticas. Os resultados foram confrontados com os fatores de risco para aterosclerose encontrados nesses cadáveres: idade, sexo, hipertensão arterial, tabagismo, diabetes, antecedentes familiares, infarto do miocárdio, acidente vascular cerebral, obesidade e insuficiência vascular periférica. Resultados: não foram encontradas lesões obstrutivas na angiografia. Quatro cadáveres apresentaram lesões ateroscleróticas à microscopia óptica. Não foram encontradas correlações entre os fatores de risco e lesão aterosclerótica à microscopia. Conclusão: não foram encontradas lesões obstrutivas nas artérias radiais dos cadáveres estudados / Abstract: The use of radial artery as a coronary artery bypass graft increased since 1992. It is justified that arterial grafts theoretically would last more than venous grafts. But radial arteries could have atherosclerotic obstructions before cardiac bypass grafting surgery. The objective of this study is to verify the incidence of atherosclerotic obstructions and microscopic atherosclerotic lesions in radial arteries dissected from cadavers with 35 or more of age. Methods: 29 cadavers had both radial arteries dissected as if they were utilized as a coronary artery bypass graft. An angiogram was performed to determine atherosclerotic obstruction of the radial artery. After that, 3 fragments of the artery (proximal, medial, distal) were prepared in haematoxilin-eosin microscopic slides in the aim to detect microscopical atherosclerotic lesions. Results were confronted with risk factor found in cadaver¿s story: age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, smoking story, myocardial infarctation, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, obesity, family story. Results: No obstructive lesions were found in the angiogram. Four cadavers presented microscopic atherosclerotic and pre-atherosclerotic lesions. Among the risk factors studied, only age was correlated with microscopic lesions. The arteries measured 19.22 cm (mean) in males, 17.45 cm (mean) in females. Its diameters were 1.87 mm in males, 1.72 in females. There were no correlation between the risk factors studied and presence of microscopical atherosclerotis lesions. Conclusions: No atherosclerotic obstructions were found in the radial arteries of those cadavers / Mestrado / Cirurgia / Mestre em Cirurgia

Investigating the effect of mechanical loading in a total reversed shoulder implant

Abulkhair, Nesreen January 2012 (has links)
The shoulder joint is a multi-axis synovial ball and socket joint, by having a loose connection it provides a wide degree of freedom; however this means the joint lacks robustness and is prone to damage most commonly from shoulder dislocations. A rotator cuff tear causes major problems in allowing the arm to be lifted beyond a 90˚ abduction position. It is common that this insufficiency aggravates arthritis problems that may have occurred due the rotator cuff tear problem. The study focuses on investigating, describing and quantifying the implant geometric properties to evaluate the joint contact characteristics and use the outcome in redesign the implant. The investigation presents results of finite element analysis on a heavy loading condition on a Verso (reverse) shoulder implant which is validated using experimental data on the same prosthesis. The results are validated within a 5% error margin. A Verso implant is modelled using MIMICS (materialise) and imported into ABAQUS (Simulia, Providence, USA) to analyse the distribution of stress, strain and displacement across the Humerus and Scapula. Details of interaction, boundary conditions, loads and material properties are all obtained from research and applied to the model to portray realistic behaviour. The resulting stress, strain and displacement from this simulation are indicated to show the magnitude and distribution across the entire bone region. This validates the benefits of a Verso implant compared to conventional and long stemmed reverse shoulder implants, as well as provide a basis from which improved designs can be built upon and allow further accurate methods to be developed in analysing shoulder implants effectively.

Técnica quirúrgica para el tratamiento de fisuras labiales bilaterales asimétricas

Rossell Perry, Percy, Gavino Gutiérrez, Arquímedes 11 August 2014 (has links)
Introducción: La anatomía de la fisura labial bilateral es diferente para cada paciente y varios autores han descrito modificaciones de técnicas tradicionales en la búsqueda de obtener un diseño más individual con mejores resultados. Las técnicas de Millard y Mulliken son probablemente las técnicas quirúrgicas más usadas por los cirujanos alrededor del mundo en el manejo de la fisura labial bilateral, sin embargo existen algunas limitaciones en esta técnica en casos bilaterales con asimetría. En ese sentido, se ha diseñado la presente técnica que busca corregir la asimetría en la fisura bilateral. Esta técnica se basa en un doble avance y rotación lateral localizando las cicatrices sobre las líneas naturales del labio entre las unidades estéticas del mismo. Material y Métodos: Este es un estudio retrospectivo del tipo de serie de casos. Este artículo presenta una nueva técnica para el tratamiento quirúrgico de la fisura labial bilateral usada por el autor en 125 pacientes a manera de estudio retrospectivo descriptivo. Esta técnica está basada en el concepto de doble avance y rotación lateral permitiendo el alargamiento del segmento labial lateral más corto. Estas incisiones son ubicadas sobre las líneas naturales del labio, entre las subunidades estéticas del labio superior, en su mayoría. Se evaluaron los resultados obtenidos con esta técnica considerando el número de malos resultados observados a través del seguimiento de los pacientes en un plazo mayor a un año a través del examen físico directo y el análisis de las fotos postoperatorias estandarizadas. Resultados: Desde 2009 al 2011 esta técnica ha sido usada en 125 fisuras labiales bilaterales. Se obtuvo un buen resultado estético y funcional del labio superior y la nariz con esta técnica. Se observaron 15 / 125 (12 %) de malos resultados. Estas son cirugías que necesitaron revisión secundaria mayor. Conclusiones: Una nueva técnica para el tratamiento de formas asimétricas de fisura labial bilateral se describe aquí. Esta es una técnica que permite alargar el segmento labial lateral más corto de la fisura con buenos resultados estéticos en la reconstrucción del labio superior y nariz de la fisura labial bilateral. / Introduction: The anatomy of bilateral cleft lip is different for each patient, and many authors have described modifications of the traditional repairing techniques in order to achieve more individualized designs and better results. The techniques described by Millard and Mulliken are probably the most commonly used all over the world for repairing bilateral cleft lip; however, there are some short-comings when trying to repair asymmetric forms of bilateral cleft lip. So, we designed this technique aiming to correct asymmetry in bilateral cleft lip. This technique is based on a double advancement and lateral rotation concept placing the scars over the natural lines between the esthetic subunits of the upper lip. Matherial and Methods: This is a retrospective and descriptive study based on a case series. We present a new technique used for surgical repair of bilateral cleft lip in 125 patients. The technique is based in the double advancement and lateral rotation concept which allows lengthening of the shortest lateral lip segment. Most of the incisions are performed on the natural lip landmarks, between the aesthetic subunits of the upper lip. Results were assessed considering the number of failures observed after following up patients for more than one year, performing physical examination and analyzing standardized postoperative pictures. Results: This technique has been used in 125 procedures for repairing cleft lip. We obtained good functional and esthetic outcomes for both nose and lips using this technique. The rate of poor results was 15/125 (12%). These latter procedures had to undergo major secondary surgical revisions. Conclusions: We describe a new technique for surgical repair of asymmetric bilateral cleft lip. This technique led to the elongation of the shortest lateral labial segment, allowing us to achieve good esthetic and functional results on upper lip and nose reconstruction in cases of bilateral asymmetric cleft lip.
