Mentored by Me by  Rakesh Bhargava in Crimson Publishers: Annals of Medicine and Surgery Crimson Publishers:  Annals of Medicine and Surgery Surgery I was given to understand was an art learnt by apprenticeship. When I was choosing a subject for my postgraduation, therefore, the paramount consideration was the mentor. I chose Dr P K Sethi, with whom the Jaipur Foot is associated. https://crimsonpublishers.com/smoaj/fulltext/SMOAJ.000517.php For more Open access journals in Crimson Publishers Please clickon:  https://crimsonpublishers.com/ For more Articles on Surgery Journal Impact Factor please click onlink:  https://crimsonpublishers.com/smoaj/index.php

Di ANA Technique for lipo marking. Adaptable Natural Abdominal Distraction. (For its' acronym in Spanish) by  Benavides Adan in Crimson Publishers: Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal Crimson Publishers:  Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal  The discovery of liposuction surges in need of trying to find solutions to lipodystrophies, avoiding extensive scars. In 1921 Dujarrier was awarded for being the first to do liposuction. The innovators of the concept of liposuction, as well as the material for carrying it out, were the surgeons Schrudde, Meyer, Arpad and Giorgio Fischer in 1974. In 1977, Illouz adapted a uterine Karman cannula adding suction to the practice of the process. In 1985 the introduction of syringe-assisted liposuction popularized by Fournier, partly simplified the intervention [1,2]. https://crimsonpublishers.com/smoaj/fulltext/SMOAJ.000516.php For more Open access journals in Crimson Publishers Please clickon:  https://crimsonpublishers.com

Age and Number of Surgeries Increase Risk for Complication in Polytrauma Patients with Operative Maxillofacial Fractures by Ashkaun Shaterian in Crimson Publishers: Surgery Open Access Journal Crimson Publishers:  Surgery Open Access Journal Purpose: Polytrauma patients often sustain complex head/neck injuries requiring prolonged hospitalizations and multiple operations. Few studies have evaluated the associated injury patterns and risk factors for poor clinical outcomes. Methods: We evaluated consecutive polytrauma patients with operative maxillofacial fractures treated at a level 1 trauma medical center between 1995-2013. We numerated concomitant head/neck injuries to identify potential injury patterns. Lastly, we performed a multivariate analysis to determine independent risk factors for complications during the acute hospitalization period. Results: 232 polytrauma patients presented with operative maxillofacial fractures. We found 38.8% of patients had a se

The Effects of Sleep Deprivation, Caffeine, and Alcohol on Simulated Neurosurgical Performance by Daniel J Guillaume in Crimson publishers: Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal Crimson Publishers: Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal Objectives:We hypothesized that sleep deprivation, caffeine intake, and alcohol consumption the night prior to simulated microneurosurgery may impact performance on a virtual reality neurosurgical simulator. Patients and Methods: After IRB approval, trainees practiced a simulated bimanual arachnoid dissection microsurgical task on the NeuroTouch Neurosurgical simulator (National Research Council, Canada) until it was mastered. For each participant, the task was repeated several times following sleep deprivation, caffeine intake and the morning after a social gathering where blood alcohol content (BAC) was measured. Each time the task was performed, the participants documented variables on a questionnaire. Performance metrics included: task dura
