Abstract
In recent years, the Rutherford Morison incision has become synonymous with renal transplant surgery. However, this incision was originally intended for access to the sigmoid colon and pelvis, particularly in the case of a midline previously scarred from operation. We present a case of a middle-aged female with a caecal tumour, requiring resection. Upon examination, this patient was found to have large concomitant diastasis of the recti. A right-sided Rutherford Morison incision was utilized in performing a right hemicolectomy. Although the advantages of a minimally invasive approach to colonic resections are well described, laparoscopy was not utilized in the case discussed. Due to the wide area of anterior abdominal wall laxity, herniation is likely to develop at both port placement and specimen delivery sites. A similar outcome would result from a midline incision. However, a paramedian is an acceptable alternative to a Rutherford Morison incision in a case like this, as it is known to have very low rates of post-operative incisional herniation. While in modern times, its use may have become repurposed, the Rutherford Morison incision is one which should be remembered and used in the surgeons' armamentarium to improve clinical outcomes when necessary.

[PMID: 37271603 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjoms.2023.05.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2022] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
Iodoform formulations are used as packing material following the surgical removal of jaw lesions. The purpose of this review was to explore the evidence and efficacy of iodoform-based dressings. We have systematically reviewed published articles according to the PRISMA statement. The search was conducted in PubMed, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, and the Cochrane Library database for articles mentioning the use of iodoform as dressing material for jaw lesions from January 2000 to March 2022. Finally, 92 studies were included. A total of 386 patients whose ages ranged from five months to 86 years (male n = 180, female n = 117). Different formulations of iodoform used were BIPP (n = 67), Whitehead's varnish (n = 17), iodoform (n = 7) and, iodine (n = 1) for its antiseptic properties. An iodoform impregnated gauze pack was changed once a week, most commonly, for a stipulated duration, until complete healing of the cavity. In the present review, iodoform was used, most commonly, in pathological cavities following surgical treatment of ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocyst. Toxicity was reported in two studies. Based on the current review, iodoform is relatively safe and can be used in the management of extensive jaw lesions in which secondary healing is expected. Prospective and randomised control trials are recommended to assess the efficacy of various formulations and to delineate the timeframe for patient compliance.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary condition that affects the clinical features and structure of the enamel. The enamel formation diseases are inherited and might be X-linked, autosomal dominant, recessive, sex-related, or sporadic. Dental professionals should evaluate such patients completely, both clinically and radiographically, to detect any cysts associated with impacted or unerupted teeth. This report describes the case of a 10-year-old patient affected by amelogenesis imperfecta with a dentigerous cyst involving an impacted tooth and an unerupted tooth of the maxilla.

Abstract
The destructive effect of infectious diseases on human life and the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains highlight the importance of developing new and appropriate treatment strategies, one of which is the use of metals as therapeutic agents. Bismuth nanoparticles are an example of prominent metal-containing drugs. The therapeutic effects of bismuth-based drugs in the treatment of wounds have been proven. Various laboratory studies have confirmed the antimicrobial effects of bismuth nanoparticles, including the clinical treatment of ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori. Therefore, considering the performance of this nanoparticle and its potent effect on infectious agents and its therapeutic dimensions, the present study fully investigated the properties and performance of this metal-based nanoparticle.

Abstract
Bismuth as a relatively non-toxic and inexpensive metal with exceptional properties has numerous biomedical applications. Bismuth-based compounds are used extensively as medicines for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders including dyspepsia, gastric ulcers and H. pylori infections. Recently, its medicinal application was further extended to potential treatments of viral infection, multidrug resistant microbial infections, cancer and also imaging, drug delivery and biosensing. In this review we have highlighted the unique chemistry and biological chemistry of bismuth-209 as a prelude to sections covering the unique antibacterial activity of bismuth including a description of research undertaken to date to elucidate key molecular mechanisms of action against H. pylori, the development of novel compounds to treat infection from microbes beyond H. pylori and the significant role bismuth compounds can play as resistance breakers. Furthermore we have provided an account of the potential therapeutic application of bismuth-213 in targeted alpha therapy as well as a summary of the biomedical applications of bismuth-based nanoparticles and composites. Ultimately this review aims to provide the state of the art, highlight the untapped biomedical potential of bismuth and encourage original contributions to this exciting and important field.

Abstract
Surgical and prosthodontic restoration of the midfacial region following tumor resection has always posed a considerable challenge, as this area serves crucial functional and esthetic roles. Being diagnosed and subsequently treated for facial tumors can have an immense psychosocial impact on a patient, as the resulting defects are often disfiguring, and lead to an inability to masticate, swallow, and speak clearly. Provision of an immediate facial and dental prosthesis at the time of surgery can limit these side effects and help reduce mental duress on these patients and their families, as well as aid in the process of rehabilitation. Rapid prototyping (RP) and 3D printing, as this paper shows, assists presurgical planning of the tumor resection, as well as the manufacture of maxillofacial and dental prostheses. Often these defects are extensive, so prosthesis retention is aided by zygomatic implants placed at the time of surgical resection. When placed at this time, and prior to radiation therapy, these craniofacial implants have improved survival rates. Thus, this treatment modality can improve postoperative recovery considerably, while at the same time allowing for cleaning and monitoring of the resected site for tumor recurrence.
