(20) In the osteoplastic approach the superior and posterior segment of the ear canal wall is temporarily removed.
Osteoplasty
Definition:
(n.) An operation or process by which the total or partial loss of a bone is remedied.
Example Sentences:
(1) Emphasis is placed on surgical access and osteoplasty techniques.
(2) They were compared with two matched series of boys with clefts; one group was treated with primary osteoplasty and the second with the technique of surgical repair without a bone graft or periosteal flap.
(3) Frontal obliteration with Proplast may be clinically superior to osteoplasty with any other presently available exogenous material or with osteoneogenesis alone, and may even obviate the few complications encountered with adipose implants.
(4) In spite of its muscular origin, surgery should be aimed toward bony reduction or osteoplasty and supplemental myotomy.
(5) Recurrence of cholesteatoma will press the cartilage plasty into the external auditory canal, whereas after osteoplasty of the endaural canal wall the patient runs to an uncertain percentage the same risk as before the operation.
(6) Accordingly, the osteoplasty of clefts is the most important prerequisite for stable treatment results and a healthy dentition.
(7) Modelling osteoplasty without drainage of the sinus was performed in all three cases and yielded satisfactory and stable results with a minimal period of observation of 5 years.
(8) Thus, in hypotrophies of the ascending ramus, especially in temporo-mandibular ankylosis, they use a longitudinal osteotomy (Popescu 1949); various technical adaptations of this method, in different situations, are described, as well as their association with osteoplasty, utilizing iliac bone grafts or the hypertrophic chin prominence.
(9) At present a clear trend exists to operate at a younger age again: secondary osteoplasty being performed at 6-12 years of age.
(10) Consequently, secondary osteoplasty should not be abandoned.
(11) In 3,887 patients the wounds were closed with sutures and drained, in 1,535 patients the wound surfaces were closed and tissue defects repaired by various methods of cutaneo- and osteoplasty, in 1,261 of these patients free skin graft was carried out.
(12) It was not possible to obtain statistical evidence for a negative influence of osteoplasty upon maxillary growth.
(13) When the margin of the defect is close to the alveolar crest, less than 3 mm, the surgery involves also modification of the hard tissues of the periodontium (apically repositioned full thickness flap with ostectomy-osteoplasty).
(14) Osteoplasty of the first metatarsal is a form of "plastic surgery" of bone.
(15) Defects of the bone margin requiring ostectomy and osteoplasty include hyperostotic processes, formations which, while recalling palatine and mandibular tori, have their own nosological slot.
(16) Frontal osteoplasty with exogenous material has been uniformly unsuccessful both experimentally and clinically.
(17) In 10 rabbits, the sinus ostium was enlarged (osteoplasty group), and in 10 other animals, a window of the same size was created far from the ostium (antrostomy group).
