Office staff responsibilities in preventing surgery malpractice suits.

Improved communications, procedures, administration, and system routines in a medical office are everyone's responsibility. It is an area in the overall treatment of the medical malpractice disease in which the entire office staff plays a critical part. The reward is that everyone--the patient, the physician, and the staff--benefits. Office staff can make a vital contribution to achieving a pleasant, efficient office where very few mistakes occur and preventable errors are eliminated.

Rehabilitation for the post-cleft nasolabial stigma.

The post-cleft central facial stigma is a psychologically crippling deformity that challenges the reconstructive surgeon's imagination. Rewarding improvements can be achieved through a combination of an "elephant trunk" open approach and restoration of existing structural elements with addition of a central cartilage or bony columellar strut capped by cartilage to provide nasal tip projection. The entire deformity must be considered and, if needed, maxillary or lip revisional surgery must be done to obtain optimal results.

Centripetal rotation-advancement for bilateral cleft lip nasal deformities.

One of the most difficult sequelae of the cleft lip syndrome is the post-operative nasal deformity. In this presentation we define that deformity according to its components, review the groups of procedures which are available for its correction and suggest a more aggressive approach with the use of additional skeletal support, emphasizing the adequate correction of the nasal tip to obtain more "thrust". A number of long term cases with illustrated follow-ups are shown.

Medicolegal aspects of automobile injuries.

We have tried to acquaint you with the basic elements of law relevant to the treatment of vehicle-related injury, i.e., the Good Samaritan clause, the definition of liability in surgery, warranty and informed consent. We have listed prophylactic measures to reduce medicolegal problems to a minimum. We have outlined the stepwise development of a court case and your duties to the court. Finally we have detailed special situations that occur in a trial and how to cope with them. In summary, bear in mind that it is natural to be edgy about court appearances. Few of us in medicine, after all, enjoy this kind of thing and to that extent we are truly out of our element. On the other hand, most attorneys, expert though they may be, are out of their element in medicine. That evens the score to a very considerable degree.
