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://crimso...

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 ...

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 inclu...

Large Spigelian Hernia_Crimson Publishers Large Spigelian Hernia by Devaji Rao S in Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal Spigelian hernias form a minority of all abdominal wall hernias. They occur between the layers of the abdominal wall, i.e. between the transversus abdominis and the internal oblique muscles through a small slit like or oval defect and may become incarcerated. A variety of intra abdominal organs have been reported in the hernia sac. Obstruction and strangulation are potential complications but they are rare. The clinical diagnosis of a Spigelian hernia is difficult when it is small. We present here a large Spigelian hernia which persisted for very many years without any complications. https://crimsonpublishers.com/smoaj/fulltext/SMOAJ.000512.php For more Open access journals in Crimson Publishers  Please click on: https://crimsonpublishers.com/ For more articles in Open access journal of Innovation in Surgical Open Access Jour...

Non Tuberculous Mycobacterium as a Causative Factor in Port Site Wound Infection - A Case Report by JS Rajkumar in Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal  Over the two decades there has been an increase in Non Tuberculous Mycobacterium (NTM) organisms in post laparoscopic port site skin and soft tissue infections. Presenting a patient who underwent eight successive surgical explorations of multiple skin and soft tissue sinuses and for aggressive necrosectomy and debridement of multiple sinuses caused by NTM organisms which ended up in abdominoplasty and meshplasty 2 months after the infection had been completely controlled. She finally had complete relief from the infection and had 6 months follow up from the last meshplasty surgery. The presentation and treatment of NTM skin and soft tissue infection are briefly outlined. https://crimsonpublishers.com/smoaj/fulltext/SMOAJ.000511.php For more Open access journals in Crimson Publishers  Please click on: h...

Correlation of Base-Line Trough Tacrolimus Level With Early Rejection_Crimson publishers Correlation of Base-Line Trough Tacrolimus Level With Early Rejection by Manish Tripathi in  Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal   he study was done at Muljibhai Patel Urological Hospital, Nadiad, Gujarat. It is a tertiary health care centre, for nephrology, with a well established hemodialysis unit. We have done about 1950 renal transplantation so far. Acute rejection is the most significant risk factor for chronic rejection and potential surrogate for longterm graft failure. Aim of our study was to analyze the association between the baseline through (C0) tacrolimus level in the first day post transplant, with early rejection in living donor transplants.
