https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ga-017.html Introduction As robotic-assisted surgery becomes increasingly utilized for pediatric ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction, open surgeons have countered by using muscle-splitting, miniature (≤2 cm) incisions. To prepare for this type of incision during pyeloplasty, it is necessary to define the exact location of the UPJ. The use of retrograde pyelogram (RPG) at the time of pyeloplasty helps the surgeon to identify the exact location of UPJ, and thus be able to use a muscle-splitting, miniature incision for open pyeloplasty. Objective We hypothesize that when performing a muscle-splitting, miniature incision open approach; preoperative RPG frequently changes the traditional pyeloplasty flank incision at the tip of the 11th or 12th rib. Materials & methods A retrospective review of open pyeloplasties performed by a single surgeon at our institution from 7/1/2010 to 12/31/2018 was performed to determine rate of use of RPG, open pyeloplasty incision location and to determine what factors are predictive of incie patient at surgery, patient sex, size of the affected kidney, T1/2 times of less then 30 min, split function of less then 30%, kidney length differential, or laterality. Conclusion The consistent use of RPG prior to pyeloplasty helps surgeons to plan for a small muscle-splitting, miniature open incisions. In our experience, 27% of pyeloplasties required alternative incision sites based on the results of pre-operative RPG.Fibrous dysplasia is an unusual pathologic condition caused by abnormal bone metabolism. Temporal bone involvement is often seen, but it is uncommon to find fibrous dysplasia limited to the middle ear, especially originating in and confined to a single ossicle. Here we report a case of osteofibrous dysplasia limited exclusively to an ossicle (malleus) causing gradual conductive hearing loss, which recovered after eventual complete removal of the dysplastic area. The lesion showed firm attachment
