The novel picture archiving and communication system (PACS), compatible with virtual reality (VR) software, displays cross-sectional images in VR. VR magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) was tested to improve the anatomical understanding and intraoperative performance of minimally invasive cholecystectomy (CHE) in surgical trainees.

We used an immersive VR environment to display volumetric MRCP data (Specto VR
). First, we evaluated the tolerability and comprehensibility of anatomy with a validated simulator sickness questionnaire (SSQ) and examined anatomical landmarks. Second, we compared conventional MRCP and VR MRCP by matching three-dimensional (3D) printed models and identifying and measuring common bile duct stones (CBDS) using VR MRCP. Third, surgical trainees prepared for CHE with either conventional MRCP or VR MRCP, and we measured perioperative parameters and surgical performance (validated GOALS score).

The study was conducted out at Clarunis, University Center for Gastrointes 18), respectively (
 = 0.27).

VR MRCP allows for a faster, more accurate understanding of displayed anatomy than conventional MRCP and potentially leads to improved surgical performance in CHE in surgical trainees.

The biomechanical characteristics of the trauma size and postoperative drainage of different incisions for high complex anal fistula surgery were compared by numerical simulation analysis to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical selection of minimally invasive incisions for surgery.

Using FLUENT finite element software, a typical incision finite element model was established to obtain incision areas, and the total mass outlet flow within 200 s was calculated to evaluate the drainage effect of each incision.

The incisions with the largest to smallest areas were the curved, spindle, and curved plus extended groove incision, indicating that the curved plus extended groove incision caused the least damage to the perianal skin muscles. Conversely, the incisions with the largest to smallest total outlet flow were as follows curved plus extended groove, spindle, curved, and straight incision, suggesting that the curved plus extended groove model had the best diversion effect, and the curved incision hadlas.
To study the effect of parecoxib sodium (PS) application, combined with enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) nursing, on inflammation and knee joint function in elderly patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

In this prospective cross-sectional study, we recruited 120 elderly patients treated with TKA who were randomly divided into two groups, the combine group and the control group, with 60 patients in each group. HG106 purchase Patients in the control group received ERAS nursing and normal saline, and the patients in the combine group received ERAS nursing and PS. At different times after surgery, we compared the hemoglobin (Hb), complete white blood cell count (WBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and serum IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6, and recovery time for different ranges of joint motion and the knee joint function HSS (hospital for special surgery scale) score between the two groups.

On the third and seventh postoperative days, the levels of Hb in the patients of the combine group were significantly lower than those in the control group (
 < 0.05), while the levels of WBC, ESR, serum IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 in the patients of the combine group were all significantly lower than those in the control group (
 < 0.05). Compared with the patients in the control group, the recovery time for 30, 60, 90, and 120 angles of joint motion in patients of the combine group was significantly decreased (
 < 0.05), and the HSS score of patients in the combine group was significantly higher than that in the control group on the first, third, and sixth postoperative months (
 < 0.05).

Elderly TKA patients who received PS application, combined with ERAS nursing, had lower inflammation in peripheral blood 2 weeks after operation and faster postoperative recovery of knee joint function.

At present, the indication for nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) remains inconclusive, and occult nipple involvement (NI) is one of the most important problems when carrying out NSM. Therefore, we aimed to identify the predictive factors of NI, to provide a tool for selecting suitable candidates for NSM.

In this retrospective study, a total of 250 breast cancer patients who received mastectomy were recruited, and the association between NI and tumor clinicopathologic characteristics was investigated. Nipple signs, tumor size measured by ultrasound (US), and tumor location were developed as a nomogram to predict NI.

Among the 250 patients, 34 (12.6%) had NI, and 216 (86.4%) did not. In the training group, NI was associated with nipple signs, tumor size, tumor-nipple distance (TND), tumor location, lymph node metastasis, and HER2 overexpression. Both in the training and in the validation groups, NI showed a significant association with nipple signs, tumor size measured by ultrasound, and tumor location. Based on these three clinical factors, the preoperative model nomogram was proved to have high efficiency in predicting NI, possessing a sensitivity of 80.0% and a specificity of 86.7% in the validation group.

We proposed a predictive model nomogram utilizing preoperative tumor characteristics, including nipple signs, tumor size measured by ultrasound, and tumor location. This predictive model could help in the planning of nipple-sparing mastectomy.

An interdisciplinary team formed of urological and vascular surgeons decided and performed a one-step operation. The right kidney was removed, and the limb revascularization was achieved by performing a bypass that used the right renal arterial stump as an inflow artery, thus called a reno-femoral bypass. The AAA had no indication for reconstruction. The final pathology interpretation of the kidney tumor revealed a clear cell renal cell carcinoma, excised with oncological safety margins. A short-term follow-up found the patient without ischemic symptomatology and a fully functional graft.
To introduce a new surgical method for the repair of a large inner canthus combined with tissue loss at the inner canthal angle of the eye by using a bird-beak-type z-shaped asymmetrical flap and to summarize its clinical effect.

A total of 56 patients with a large inner canthus were randomly selected, and a bird-beak-type z-shaped asymmetrical flap was used on the nasal side of the lower eyelid to repair and reconstruct the inner canthal folds. The inner canthal point was located according to physiological aesthetics. The short and long arms of the z-shaped asymmetrical flap were separated, replaced, fixed, and shaped to reconstruct the skin folds of the inner canthus and restore its aesthetic morphology.

All incisions after surgery achieved primary healing, and all 56 cases were followed up for 6-20 months (average 8.6 months). The caruncula lacrimalis was moderately exposed, the inner canthal angles possessed a natural appearance, and the results of the surgery were satisfactory. Five patients developed scar hyperplasia within one month after surgery, and arnica gel was applied topically for 3-6 months until the scar faded or disappeared, but no obvious scars were seen in the surgical area of the remaining patients. In two patients, the internal canthi were asymmetrical, but this improved after adjustment.

Repair of a large inner canthus and tissue loss at the inner canthal angle of the eye using a bird-beak-type z-shaped asymmetrical flap is a simple operation, resulting in minimal trauma. Postoperatively, the inner canthal angle possessed a natural appearance with no obvious scarring.

The last two decades have demonstrated that preoperative functional acoustic hearing (residual hearing) can be preserved during cochlear implant (CI) surgery. However, the relationship between the electrode array length and postoperative hearing preservation (HP) with lateral wall flexible electrode variants is still under debate.

This is a systematic literature review that aims to analyze the HP rates of patients with residual hearing for medium-length and longer-length lateral wall electrodes.

A systematic literature review methodology was applied following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) recommendations to evaluate the HP rates of medium-length and longer-length lateral wall electrodes from one CI manufacturer (medium length FLEX 24, longer length FLEX 28 and FLEX SOFT, MED-EL, Innsbruck, Austria). A search using search engine PubMed (https//www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/) was performed using the search terms "hearing preservation" or "residual hearing" and "cochlear implant" in "All fields." Articles published only in English between January 01, 2009 and December 31, 2020 were included in the search.

The HP rate was similar between medium-length (93.4%-93.5%) and longer (92.1%-86.8%) electrodes at 4 months (
 = 0.689) and 12 months (
 = 0.219). In the medium-length electrode group, patients under the age of 45 years had better HP than patients above the age of 45 years.

Both medium-length and longer electrode arrays showed high hearing preservation rates. Considering the hearing deterioration over time, implanting a longer electrode at primary surgery should be considered, thus preventing the need for future reimplantation.
