Jaw surgery, also known as orthognathic (or-thog-NATH-ik) surgery, corrects irregularities of the jaw bones and realigns the jaws and teeth to improve the way they work. Making these corrections may also improve your facial appearance. Jaw surgery may be a corrective option if you have jaw problems that can't be resolved with orthodontics alone. In most cases, you also have braces on your teeth before surgery and during recovery after surgery until healing and alignment are complete. Your orthodontist can work with your oral and jaw and face (maxillofacial) surgeon to determine your treatment plan.

Pediatric orthopedic surgeons at Columbia are using a new device with magnetic technology that avoids the need for multiple spine-lengthening surgeries to correct early-onset scoliosis, a severe curvature of the spine in young children. In April 2014, Michael Vitale, MD, the Ana Lucia Professor of Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery at CUMC and 1995 graduate of P&S, performed the first procedure in the New York area, using the device to treat a 5-year-old boy. When braces and casts cannot control scoliosis in young children, surgeons turn to growing rods, which help correct the curve while allowing the spine to grow. When spinal maturity is near, the rods are removed and a spinal fusion can be performed. But during years of treatment with growing rods, patients must undergo surgery every six months to lengthen the rods to keep up with the patients’ growth. A patient may undergo eight to 10 procedures, which are costly and result in lost time for parents at work and children at school. The new device—MAGEC (MAGnetic Expansion Control) rods—contains a mechanism inside the growing rods that allows surgeons to lengthen the rods with a handheld external magnet, without surgery.

Come Si Può Rimanere Incinta, Rimanere Incinta A 42 Anni Naturalmente, Settimane Di Gravidanza--- http://come-rimanere-incinta.info-pro.co --- Come rimanere incinta in modo naturale La sterilità può essere generalmente definita come l'incapacità di avere una gravidanza dopo aver provato per almeno un anno senza l'uso di contraccettivi. Nei paesi occidentali la sterilità colpisce circa il 15% della popolazione. Mentre c'è chi cerca di concepire con metodi alternativi come la fecondazione in vitro, altri preferiscono ottimizzare le probabilità di rimanere incinta naturalmente. Cercare di rimanere incinta naturalmente può essere molto importante dal momento che molte coppie o individui con diagnosi di sterilità possono tornare ad essere fertili senza trattamenti (e quindi si dovrebbe parlare di "sub-fertilità" piuttosto che di "sterilità"). Quando si cerca di rimanere incinta naturalmente, il fattore più importante è capire il ciclo mestruale e la tempistica di ovulazione, che porta ad ottimizzare le possibilità di ottenere una gravidanza. Di solito l'ovulazione avviene intorno al quattordicesimo giorno e, di conseguenza, per ottenere una gravidanza naturale la coppia dovrebbe avere più rapporti sessuali possibili tra il dodicesimo e il quindicesimo giorno. Ogni donna ha un ciclo leggermente diverso. Per cui, per migliorare le probabilità di rimanere incinta, è indispensabile studiare i propri cicli e calcolare con esattezza quando si ovula.
