The temporal branch of the facial nerve is a commonly injured nerve during facial trauma due to its superficial course over the zygomatic arch, and is a commonly damaged nerve during facial surgery.1 We report a case of trauma to the left temporal fossa, and subsequent unilateral forehead paralysis. Early exploration revealed external suture compression as the origin of his paralysis. Removal of the suture led to complete resolution of the neurological deficit. The differential diagnosis did not include the possibility of the compression of the nerve by a suture, however the decision for early exploration led to a full recovery.
We report a case of acquired anterior thoracic lung herniation in a 63-year-old female. This painful herniation developed four years after uncomplicated video-assisted thoracic surgery for lung cancer resection and adjuvant radiation for concomitant breast cancer. The herniation site was remote from all prior incisions, and demonstrated intercostal muscle denervation and radiation fibrosis. The 8 cm x 10 cm chest wall defect was reconstructed with inlay PROCEED mesh and reinforced with a pedicled latissimus dorsi flap. Five months postoperatively the patient had complete resolution of symptoms, no evidence of herniation, and a stable wound.
This is initial data from the Figure 8 FlatWire Sternal Closure System. FlatWire is a simple, strong, and cost effective replacement for traditional steel wire for sternal cerclage.
This is a CME article that appears in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the gold standard of publications within the field. Reconstructing the eyelid can be difficult and complicated. This article discusses the various approaches to defects caused by cancer.
This is a pilot study which examines the use of the fistbump instead of a traditional handshake in the hospital setting. In the hospital we use automatic doors, automatic sinks, and alcohol based hand sanitizer. However the rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria continues to increase. We propose ceasing handshaking within the hospital and opting instead for the fun fistbump will reduce the transmission of bacteria.
This is a paper that Dr. W. Thomas McClellan co-authored on the anatomy and reconstruction of the inframammary fold. This critical structure is often injured during breast augmentation and understanding of the anatomy is crucial to a good outcome in breast augmentation.
This is a powerpoint presentaiton given by W. Thomas McClellan, MD FACS, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in breast augmentation. This presentation is unique and critical because it gives patients detailed information about what is important regarding breast augmentation. For example: How to choose a surgeon, what is important in the operating room, postoperative care, how to pick a size, type of breast implant.
This is a paper which describes an innovative approach for skin sparing mastectomy. This incision tends to distract the eye and be less noticeable. Additionally it allows excellent access to the axilla for lymph node sampling and reduces the excessive retraction on the skin flaps.

New Drug Discovery and Development .....NEHA GUPTA
The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
