Extractions: Lenz Microphthalmia Syndrome is an extremely rare inherited disorder characterized by abnormal smallness of one or both eyes (unilateral or bilateral microphthalmos) and/or droopy eyelids (blepharoptosis), resulting in visual impairment. In rare cases, affected infants may exhibit complete absence of the eyes (anophthalmia). Most affected infants also exhibit developmental delay and mental retardation, ranging from mild to severe. Additional physical abnormalities are often associated with this disorder such as an unusually small head (microcephaly) and/or malformations of the teeth, ears, and/or fingers and/or toes (digits).

Extractions: Reconstructive Surgery Surgical removal of skin cancer of the eyelid is standard therapy. Depending on the size, depth, and location of the lesion, this can cause substantial loss of eyelid skin that may affect its function and appearance. Surgeons attempt to preserve as much skin as possible and minimize scarring, while making sure that all of the cancer cells are removed. Mohs technique, (link) or frozen section control, for example, enables the surgeon to excise the tumor while leaving more healthy tissue intact. Some very small tumors may heal on their own, through a process called granulation A large tumor may require reconstructive surgery. Two methods used are

Extractions: RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY INTRODUCTION 1. Very rare possibility of fibrosis or rejection 2. During the placement of the eye ball surface prosthesis, the intra ocular implant will provide a very stable seating bed. 3. The ends of the dura can be convinently attached to the 6 muscles in the eye which will results in the optimally co-ordinated eye ball movement with respect to the normal eye. PATIENT DETAILS Patient Name : Mr. Jigong Moddang Surgeon Name : Dr. Chalao Hospital Name : Bangkok Priest hospital Patient Age : 69 years Diagnosis : Phthisis bulbi RE / Shallow fornix RE Date of Surgery : 14/03/2000 Post operative one week with human hydroxyapatite X-ray post operative one week Case No. 2 post operative one week. Post operative one week Case Report: Application of High Temperature Treated Human Bone Hydroxyapatite Intra Orbital Implant Wrapped in Dura mater in Ophthalmology. Abstract Orbital implants may be divided into three groups: the buried nonintegrated, the buried integrated and the exposed integrated implants. The motility of the prosthesis with the buried nonintegrated implants, such as the Mules sphere implant, is generally poor. Although Nunery and associates

Extractions: Etwa 320 Tonnen Uranmunition sind im Golfkrieg 1991 gegen den Irak eingesetzt worden. Im Juni 2000 wurde in der Medizinerzeitschrift „Lancet" veröffentlicht, daß die Kindersterblichkeit im Zentral- und Südirak im Zeitraum 1995-1999 mehr als doppelt so hoch war als im Zeitraum 1985 bis 1989. Im kurdischen Nordirak blieb die Kindersterblichkeit etwa konstant. Hauptsächlich im Südirak wurde 1991 während des Zweiten Golfkrieges Uranmunition eingesetzt, nicht jedoch im Norden. 60 Kinder sind im Krankenhaus von Basrah im Jahr 2000 wegen Leukämie behandelt worden. Bis 1993 waren es „nur" fünfzehn. Infolge des Boykottes gegen den Irak können nur ein Fünftel der Leukämiekinder überleben, während in Ländern, in denen Medikamente ausreichend zur Verfügung stehen, 95% überleben. Insgesamt ist die Krebsrate bei irakischen Kindern von 4/100000 im Jahr 1990 auf 11/100000 im Jahr 1999 und damit auf 275% gestiegen. Ein Mädchen bekam Gebärmutterhalskrebs schon als Sechsjährige. Dr. med. Amer geht von einer „Inkubationszeit" des im Körper eingelagerten abgercicher-ten Urans von fünf Jahren aus, da die Anzahl genetischer Schäden seit dem Golfkrieg weiter ansteigt: Im Jahr 2000 sind in der Region Basrah insgesamt 221 Kinder mit Mißbildungen geboren.
