The fate of exposed bone.

Abstract:

:Exposed bone, even in conjunction with a fracture, will cover spontaneously with granulation tissue followed by epithelium, or will sequestrate and then cover, providing there is adequate circulation at the wound site. The healing process is lengthy but need not interfere with the reestablishment of function of the wounded part. The method requires surgical restraint but has a high success rate and avoids the risks and failures of complicated skin transfer methods.

  • Improved cannula for operative (cystic duct) cholangiography.

    abstract::A new S-shaped cystic duct metal cannula was developed and used successfully in 200 cystic duct cholangiograms. It has the advantage of being easy to manipulate because the configuration does not obscure the vision and the resistance is less than that of plastic tubes, facilitating injection with lower pressure. It is...
