Brachial Plexus Injury in Abdominal and Breast Surgery by Eyüp Murat Yılmaz* and Ethem Bilgiç in Crimson Publishers: Annals of Medicine and Surgery
Brachial plexus injury is a picture of the upper extremity that leads to numbness, pain, and limitation of movement, usually seen in newborns and trauma cases. Iatrogenically, it is observed after thorax, orthopedics, breast, and abdominal surgeries nevertheless it is quite rare. Risk factors exist and treatment and management seem to be a challenging clinical condition.

Damage control orthopaedics (DCO) is an approach that temporarily stabilizes orthopaedic injuries in severely injured trauma patients to avoid worsening their condition. It focuses on controlling hemorrhage, managing soft tissue injury, and achieving provisional fracture stability through temporary stabilization methods like external fixation. This allows time for the patient's physiology to stabilize before definitive repair and reduces the risks of complications from a major orthopaedic procedure when the patient is still unstable. DCO has evolved from traditional approaches as an understanding has grown of the body's inflammatory response to trauma and risks of multiple hits.
The midline and lateral parascapular extrapleural exposuresAlexander Bardis
This document discusses the cervicothoracic junction (CTJ) region of the spine, which spans from C7 to T3. It covers various pathologies that can affect the CTJ including trauma, tumors, metastases, and iatrogenic instability. Surgical treatment approaches for the CTJ are also summarized, including both posterior approaches like laminectomy and instrumented fusion as well as combined anterior-posterior procedures.
The document summarizes research on gait analysis of patients with spina bifida. It describes the three main types of spina bifida and their associated neurological impairments and functional classifications. Instrumental gait analysis is discussed as a tool to objectively measure biomechanical variables during walking. Results from gait analysis can inform treatment through assessing quality of ambulation, effects of orthotics, muscle function, and postoperative changes.
This case report describes a rare occurrence of an aneurysmal bone cyst arising from an iliopubic chondromyxoid fibroma in a 20-year-old male patient. Imaging showed an osteolytic tumor in the left iliopubic ramus. The tumor was excised surgically and microscopic examination confirmed the diagnosis of chondromyxoid fibroma with areas consistent with an aneurysmal bone cyst. This case represents an unusual location for a chondromyxoid fibroma and confirms the rare association between aneurysmal bone cysts and chondromyxoid fibromas. The patient recovered well after surgery with no recurrence after one year of follow up.

This document discusses anesthesia considerations for total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) surgeries. It covers preoperative evaluation and optimization of comorbidities. Regional anesthesia techniques like spinal, epidural and peripheral nerve blocks are preferred due to advantages like less blood loss, better pain control and early mobility. General anesthesia is an option as well. Intraoperative monitoring, fluid management and prevention of complications like venous thromboembolism and cement implantation syndrome are discussed. Early mobilization and multimodal analgesia are emphasized for postoperative care.
This study evaluated the surgical management of 18 patients with posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsions from the tibia using cannulated screw fixation. The average age was 29 years and most injuries were from road traffic accidents. Patients underwent open reduction and fixation of the avulsed PCL fragment with a cannulated screw. At an average follow up of 31 months, all patients had full range of motion and good knee stability. The average postoperative Lysholm score was 91, indicating excellent outcomes. The authors concluded that open reduction and fixation with a cannulated screw is an effective technique for tibial avulsion injuries of the PCL.
This research article studied parameters of the lower lumbar intervertebral foramen related to the superior articular process using X-ray imaging. X-rays of the lumbar spine from 104 adults were analyzed. Measurements were taken of the height, width, and other dimensions of the lower lumbar intervertebral foramen. The results found no significant gender differences in foramen parameters. Parameters related to the superior articular process, such as height and distance from bony landmarks, showed significant age-related differences between those aged 40-60 and over 60. This data supplements the intervertebral foramen database and provides a reference for individualized minimally invasive spine surgeries, especially in elderly patients over 60 years old.
This document describes a case report of a rare congenital anomaly called ulnar dimelia in a 1.5 year old male patient. Ulnar dimelia is characterized by double ulnae in the forearm, polydactyly, absence of the radius and thumb. The patient presented with restricted elbow and wrist movement and an unacceptable cosmetic appearance. Management would require multiple staged surgeries but the parents neglected further treatment after the initial visit. Ulnar dimelia results from imbalanced signals during embryonic development leading to abnormalities in the forearm, hand and digits. Surgical management aims to improve function and cosmesis but often requires several procedures and long-term follow up.
This document discusses the principles of damage control orthopedics (DCO) for treatment of polytrauma patients. DCO involves a staged approach, with initial temporary stabilization of fractures using external fixation, followed by resuscitation and optimization of the patient. Definitive stabilization is then performed after 4 days once the acute inflammatory response has subsided to minimize additional surgical stress. Femur fractures stabilized with external fixation can be converted to intramedullary nailing within 2-3 weeks once the risk of infection is low. Pelvic and acetabular fractures may also be definitively treated 7-10 days after injury. The goal of DCO is to balance life-saving care of injuries with avoiding lethal complications through additional
Fracture humerus shaft in adults (AUDIT-KHOULA HOSPITAL)Ahmed Azmy
Fractures of the humerus shaft are commonly treated with conservative or operative methods. Conservative treatment with a functional brace results in a high rate of healing but some malunion. Operative treatment with plating has risks of iatrogenic radial nerve palsy, nonunion, and infection. An audit of 57 humerus shaft fractures found a 3.5% rate of iatrogenic radial nerve palsy and 3.5% nonunion rate with operative treatment. Careful surgical planning and supervision are needed to prevent complications.
In thoracolumbar spine trauma, the biomechanical goals in minimally invasive fracture treatment include decompression of the spinal canal, reduction of spinal deformities, and maintenance of stable fixation of the spine to permit early mobilization.
This was a teaching lecture given by Prof. Mohamed Mohi Eldin, professor of neurosurgery, in the Multi- Institutional Neurosurgical Meeting, Kasr El Aini Hospital, Cairo University, April 2nd, 2009.
This study evaluated the intermediate and long-term results of femoral neck lengthening (Morscher osteotomy) in 18 patients (20 hips) with a median follow-up of 7 years. Postoperatively, the Trendelenburg test was negative in most patients and the median Harris Hip Score improved significantly. Radiographic examination found progression of osteoarthritis in 3 patients, while one operation failed and required total hip replacement after 4 years and two others required it at 10 years. The procedure successfully reduced leg length discrepancy in most patients. The study concluded that Morscher osteotomy can effectively treat patients with short femoral neck and overgrown greater trochanter with a positive Trendelenburg test and mild leg length
Fractures of the humerus shaft are commonly treated conservatively or operatively depending on the fracture type and patient factors. Conservative treatment with splinting or bracing results in union in over 90% of cases. Operative treatment with plating is indicated for open fractures, vascular injuries, or cases requiring realignment. This audit reviewed 57 humerus shaft fractures treated at a hospital over 2 years. Radial nerve injury was a major complication, occurring in 9 cases, while operative complications included 2 nonunions and 2 iatrogenic radial nerve palsies. Careful surgical planning and supervision are needed to minimize complications like nerve injuries.
This document outlines traumatic central cord syndrome (TCCS), including its definition, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management. TCCS is a partial spinal cord injury that results in disproportionate motor loss and bladder impairment in the lower extremities. It commonly affects middle-aged men and is often caused by hyperextension injuries to the cervical spine. The syndrome can be explained by compression of the spinal cord, though the specific pathogenesis is still debated. Diagnosis involves ruling out fractures or dislocations through imaging. Management is typically conservative initially but surgery may be considered, and outcomes seem to correlate with spinal canal size and early decompression.
Central cord syndrome is an acute spinal cord injury caused by trauma, most commonly from hyperextension injuries in individuals with cervical spondylosis. It is characterized by disproportionate weakness in the upper extremities compared to the lower extremities, along with bladder dysfunction and sensory loss below the injury level. Rehabilitation focuses on physical, occupational, speech, and recreational therapies to preserve mobility and range of motion, restore activities of daily living, and help patients return to pre-injury activities through adapted devices and techniques.
1) A study compared the clinical results of using hollow screws versus plates for treating spiral fractures of the lower third of the tibia combined with posterior malleolar fractures.
2) 61 patients were treated with tibia plate fixation and either hollow screw fixation (34 patients) or plate fixation (27 patients) of the posterior malleolar fracture.
3) At 6-36 months follow up, all fractures healed well with no differences in healing time or infection rates between the two groups. Functional outcomes assessed using the Baird-Jackson scoring system also did not significantly differ between groups.

Kyphosis as a sequel of myelomeningocele is a malformation that may result in many problems including ulcers, limited use of the arms for support purposes, and reduced pulmonary function. Treatment is complex and demanding. In 1998 the authors started treating 15 patients using the Alfredo Cardoso Monterrubio (ACM) plate for an average of 2.9 years. On average, the ACM plate provided 67.4 degrees of correction initially, with some loss of correction over time. Complications included infections and plate loosening, but patients reported improved posture and functionality.
1. The patient is a 22-year-old Thai male who was in a motorcycle accident where he collided with a passenger van, lost consciousness, and sustained lacerations to his face as well as fractures to his left forearm and right thigh.
2. Initial management at the scene included a cervical collar, IV fluids, splinting of the right leg, and transport to the emergency room.
3. At the ER, skeletal traction was applied to the right leg and a splint placed on the left arm. The patient was also given IV antibiotics and analgesics.
4. Femoral shaft fractures are most commonly caused by high-energy trauma in young adults and low-energy falls in older
Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are minimally invasive procedures used to treat painful vertebral compression fractures. Vertebroplasty involves injecting bone cement into the fractured vertebra to stabilize it, while kyphoplasty first uses an inflatable balloon to restore vertebral height before cement injection. Both procedures provide effective pain relief, though kyphoplasty may reduce risks of new fractures and cement leakage compared to vertebroplasty. Candidate selection, technical execution, and post-procedure management are important to achieve optimal outcomes and minimize complications.
This document reports a case study of a 29-year-old schizophrenic patient who attempted genital auto-mutilation for the second time. The first attempt resulted in shallow wounds, but the second attempt was more severe, resulting in complete amputation of the penis. The patient was brought to the emergency department in hemorrhagic shock and required resuscitation. Surgeons were able to control bleeding and perform a urethrostomy. Given the severity of injury and time delay, reattachment was not possible. The patient received postoperative care and will be followed by psychiatrists to monitor for risk of recurrence. Genital auto-mutilation is a psychiatric emergency that requires multidisciplinary treatment from surgeons,
A 36-year-old Thai man presented to the hospital after a motorcycle accident where he collided with a dog and fell off his bike 3 hours prior. He complains of left shoulder and chest pain. Imaging shows a closed fracture of the mid-shaft left clavicle with a left scapula neck fracture. The patient is admitted and managed conservatively with sling immobilization.
This document discusses endoscopic skull base and pituitary surgery from the perspectives of an otolaryngologist and anesthesiologist. It begins by outlining the anatomy of the skull base and approaches to the area. Common procedures discussed include tumor biopsy, excision, and CSF leak repair. Key preoperative considerations for the anesthesiologist include understanding the planned procedure and tumor type in order to focus evaluation on relevant risk factors. Pituitary tumors can cause endocrine abnormalities and increased intracranial pressure. A thorough history, physical, and labs are important to optimize patient management during surgery.
2004 crit care clin - blunt thoracic trauma f lail chest, pulmonary Aswad Affandi
Thoracic trauma is common and can cause life-threatening injuries to the chest. Rib fractures are clinically important as markers of serious injury, sources of pain, and predictors of pulmonary deterioration, especially in the elderly. Flail chest, defined as fractures of at least four consecutive ribs in two places, significantly impairs respiratory function and often requires intubation. Pulmonary contusion should be suspected in patients with significant blunt chest trauma and may not appear on initial chest x-rays, sometimes taking up to 48 hours to manifest radiographically.
This document discusses tibial pilon fractures, which involve fractures of the distal tibial articular surface. Key points include:
1) The term "tibial pilon" was first used in 1911 to describe the distal tibia resembling a pestle. Pilon fractures account for 7-10% of tibial fractures and usually result from high-energy mechanisms.
2) Classification systems include the Rüedi-Allgöwer system (based on articular displacement/comminution) and the AO/OTA system (which further subdivides based on extra-articular involvement and comminution).
3) Treatment involves restoring tibial alignment, stabilizing the fracture to facilitate union,

2015 Traumatic injuries of the thoracic aorta the role of imaging in diagno...Julio Diez
This document discusses traumatic injuries of the thoracic aorta, specifically focusing on the role of imaging in diagnosis and treatment. It provides details on:
- Road traffic accidents being the main cause, with injuries most common at the aortic isthmus.
- CT angiography playing a key role in diagnosis and assessment of injury severity to determine appropriate treatment.
- A classification system for injuries based on involvement of the aortic wall, with grades III and above generally requiring emergency treatment.
- Advances in endovascular techniques now making stent grafts the standard treatment for most injuries.
- Several imaging pitfalls that can mimic injuries, requiring careful evaluation.
Damage control orthopaedics By Dr Navin Kr singh;AIIMS New DelhiDcoNavin Singh
This document summarizes a presentation on damage control orthopedics (DCO) for polytrauma patients. It defines polytrauma and trauma scoring systems like AIS and ISS. It describes the historical evolution from early total care to DCO, including the recognition that early definitive fixation increased complications. DCO focuses on temporary stabilization through external fixation to minimize surgical insult until the patient is stabilized. The goals are to stop ongoing injury, facilitate care, and later restore function. Studies found DCO with early external fixation and later internal fixation had low mortality and infection rates comparable to primary internal fixation.
This case report describes a rare case of an acquired anterior thoracic lung herniation in a 63-year-old female that developed four years after video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer resection and adjuvant radiation for breast cancer. The 8 cm x 10 cm chest wall defect was reconstructed with mesh and reinforced with a latissimus dorsi flap. The authors believe the herniation was caused by intercostal muscle denervation from the distant VATS and soft tissue damage from radiation. The patient had complete resolution of symptoms after surgical repair. The case demonstrates that lung herniation can occur remotely from VATS incision sites due to potential nerve or muscle injury during the procedure.

CT-Guided Percutaneous Radiofrequency Thermal Ablation of Osteoid Osteoma by Pedro Manuel Serrano* in Crimson Publishers: Orthopedic Research and Reviews Journal
This document discusses neck dissection procedures. It begins with an introduction describing how cancer can metastasize to cervical lymph nodes. It then describes different types of neck dissections like radical and selective dissections. Complications from dissections like hemorrhage, nerve injury, and chyle fistulas are discussed. Reconstructive techniques using flaps and grafts are described. Nursing diagnoses and post-operative rehabilitation exercises are also summarized.
CT scans are highly effective at detecting injuries from blunt chest trauma. In a study of 100 patients with blunt chest trauma evaluated using CT scans, the most common injuries detected were pneumothorax in 28 patients, rib fractures in 53 patients, and lung contusions in 15 patients. CT scanning allows for rapid assessment of chest and potential abdominal injuries and is the preferred method for evaluating blunt chest trauma due to its high sensitivity and ability to detect a variety of injury types in a single exam.
Abdominal Wall Endometrioma: A Diagnostic Enigma—A Case Report and Review of ...KETAN VAGHOLKAR
Background. Abdominal wall endometriomas are quite uncommon. They are usually misdiagnosed by both the surgeon and the
gynaecologist. Awareness of the details of this rare condition is therefore essential for prompt diagnosis and adequate treatment.
Introduction. Endometriosis though a condition commonly seen in the pelvic region can also occur at extrapelvic sites giving
rise to a diagnostic dilemma. Abdominal wall endometrioma is one such complex variant of extrapelvic endometriosis with an
incidence of less than 2% following gynaecologic operations. Case Report. A case of abdominal wall endometrioma diagnosed
clinically and treated by wide surgical resection is presented to highlight the importance of clinical evaluation in the diagnosis of
this condition. Discussion. The etiopathogenesis, presentation, investigations, and management are discussed briefly. Conclusion.
Clinical evaluation confirmed by supportive imaging is diagnostic.Wide local excision is the mainstay of treatment.
1) The document discusses the widespread practice of applying cervical collars to conscious trauma patients as a precaution for potential cervical spine injuries.
2) However, the authors argue that for fully alert, stable, and cooperative patients, cervical collars may not be necessary and can even cause harm, as cervical collars allow some movement and can increase intracranial pressure.
3) The potential benefits of cervical collars for conscious patients are unclear and not well-supported by evidence, so the authors argue that more rigorous research is needed to test whether collars are truly needed for conscious trauma patients.
This study evaluated the functional outcomes of 15 patients who underwent thoracolumbar burst fracture stabilization using pedicle screw fixation and rods. Most patients were males between 21-30 years old, with falls being the primary cause of injury. The L1 vertebrae was most commonly fractured. Post-operatively, most patients experienced reduced pain and improved mobility, with 86.66% showing excellent or good functional outcomes and a mean hospital stay of 13 days. The results demonstrate pedicle screw fixation to be an effective procedure for stabilizing thoracolumbar burst fractures.
The document discusses fractures of the clavicle bone. It covers the epidemiology, anatomy, mechanisms of injury, classifications, and treatment options for clavicle fractures. Clavicle fractures are common injuries that make up 5-10% of all fractures. The majority heal without surgery. There is debate around indications for early surgical treatment of certain displaced or unstable fractures. Treatment depends on the location and severity of the fracture.
Adhesions are abnormal attachments between tissues and organs that commonly form after abdominal or pelvic surgery as part of the body's healing process. The formation of adhesions involves an inflammatory response to injury where fibrin deposits form bridges between tissues that can develop into fibrous bands unless dissolved. Adhesions cause significant complications like small bowel obstruction, chronic pain, infertility and increase the difficulty of future surgeries. They represent a large economic burden on healthcare systems costing an estimated $1-2 billion per year to treat adhesion-related complications. Efforts to prevent adhesions have focused on reducing inflammation, separating tissues and removing fibrin deposits but with limited success.

Recently published papers have defined the clinical characteristics and overall outcomes of COVID-19 patients with the influence on the healthcare system. Especially, general surgeons are uniquely affected due to the broad range of procedures they perform, many of which are conducted routinely in the outpatient setting. This report aims to represent the clinical presentation and outcomes of elective surgical patients during the COVID-19 epidemic.
Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) occurs when hematopoietic tissue develops outside the bone marrow, such as in the liver, spleen, or paravertebral tissues, as a compensatory mechanism for ineffective hematopoiesis. EMH often presents as pseudotumors that can be mistaken for other tumors. The underlying cause is usually a hematopoietic disorder like thalassemia or myeloproliferative neoplasm. A thorough medical history, physical exam, blood tests, and imaging tests are needed to diagnose EMH and identify the cause. Treatment focuses on managing the underlying disorder, as this will often resolve the EMH without need for surgery. A hematologist's evaluation is
Dunbar syndrome or celiac artery compression syndrome was described for the first time by Harjola in 1963. It’s an infrequent clinical condition, with few criteria for diagnosis and with obscure pathophysiology. It is usually associated with an extrinsic compression upon the celiac axis near its takeoff from the aorta by fibrous diaphragmatic bands or sympathetic
neural fibers. This syndrome is as uncommon cause for upper abdominal angina. The classic sympthoms include vomiting associated to pos prandial pain, weight loss and soufle
in the epigastric region. Diagnosis is made by abdominal angiotomography, arteriography and magnetic resonance imaging. Surgical ligament release is indicated in case of severe
compression of the celiac trunk or in patient’s refractory to clinical treatment [1].
Female genital mutilation has been condemned far more than male genital mutilation. There seems to be a conspiracy in the scientific community to ignore the benefits of the intact
prepuce (foreskin) and to deny the horrors of male genital mutilation. Science and human rights must always trump and triumph over superstition. The prepuce is on the penis for
a purpose. The foreskin/prepuce is not something to be jettisoned like the umbilical cord.When the umbilical cord is severed neither baby nor mother feel any pain. Why? Because
there are no nerves in the umbilical cord.
Mathematical modeling of the structure of vortex zones between periodic surface-located flow turbulators of a semicircular and square cross-section is carried out on the basis of multi-block computational technologies based on the solution of the factorized finite-volume method of the Reynolds equations (closed with the help of the Menter shear stress transfer
mode) and the energy equation (on different-scale intersecting structured grids). This method was previously successfully applied and verified by experiment. An exhaustive analysis of the corresponding streamlines is presented, proving the advantage of abruded turbulators.
The SARS-CoV 2 pandemic, since its origin in China as a cluster of pneumonia cases, had reached almost every part of the world and had killed more than one million people
worldwide [1]. The case fatality differs substantially between countries along with the number of symptomatic patients, sequelae of the disease and those who require intensive lifecare
support. Such a perceived difference can be attributed to macroecological dissimilarities like the general well-being of the population and a more extent, its demographic structure.
The demographic characteristics, most notably the age structure and population density, has important implications in the spread of infectious diseases [2,3]. Like most of the infectious
diseases we have known so far, COVID-19 is seen more severely in groups like the elderly and those with comorbidities [4,5]. Robustness of the health system and abundance of resources might have helped the western countries to report proportionately a greater number of cases. However huge proportion of elderly population in these countries might have contributed to higher reporting of severe illness and deaths in these countries [6].
“Occam’s Razor is a scientific and philosophical rule that entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily which is interpreted as requiring that the simplest of competing theories be preferred to the more complex or that explanations of unknown phenomena be sought first in terms of known quantity”. [1] Merriam Webster Dictionary, in other words, Occam’s razor says that, of two explanations that account for all the facts, the simpler one is more likely to be correct. “The greatest disorder of the intellect is to believe things because one wishes they were so” [2] Louis Pasteur, 1875.

:Extraocular foreign bodies (EOFBs) are a common presentation to the emergency
department (ED). Given that inadequate management can result in severe complications including visual
impairment, ED clinicians may be overly cautious and often schedule patient reviews in the ED even
where it is unnecessary, placing a burden on hospital resources.
Occurrence of a mural thrombus in a diseased descending thoracic aorta (atherosclerotic or aneurysmal) is a well-known and commonly encountered vascular entity. However, thrombus formation in a normal appearing descending thoracic aorta (NADTA) is rarely reported in literature so far. We present an
unusual case report with a brief literature review of an aortic mural thrombus (AMT) in descending thoracic aorta in a young male. He presented at our center in the emergency department with acute onset abdominal pain and underwent a contrast enhanced CT scan that confirmed mural thrombus in
NADTA.
Two case reports: the first, 50-year-old male patient, A.M.B., who suffered from hemorrhoids (2003 to 2005). Moisturizers, medications and cauterization were not successful. The patient started treatment with auricular acupuncture and apex ear bloodletting. He also received measurement of the
chakras 10 years later, which attested his chakras were rated at the minimum level of energy (1) of 8. The second, a 38-year-old male patient, started treatment with ancient medical tools for vitiligo. On the middle of the treatment, he reported to have symptoms of hemorrhoids. Treatment was the same done in case 1 and received measurement of the chakras.
Neuroblastomas are rare extracranial tumors of the pediatric population arising from cells of the embryological sympathetic nervous system. These malignancies most commonly occur in the abdomen, but other sites include the chest, neck, and pelvis with a predisposition for lymphatic and hematogenous
spread. Metastasis to the bone is a poor prognostic indicator, requiring surgical excision and other extensive medical management.
Pilonidal sinus disease is a soft tissue infection. It presents either acutely with abscess or the chronic form of sinus formation. The disease affects multiple body regions but the commonest is the sacrococcygeal region. There are different treatment strategies ranging from simple incision and
drainage of an abscess to complex constructive procedures.
Papua New Guinea has about seven active mining and exploration activities for minerals like gold, copper, and other minor minerals. Each is managed by different company and
together employs about ten thousand workers. A fifth of this would be foreign workers. Most of the Mine workers that are screened at the Employees Health and Wellness clinics tend to
have similar compounding health risks
Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP) is a rare benign lesion, originating from the submucosa in the gastrointestinal tract. It generally appears as an isolated benign lesion, rarely located at the level of the ileum. Its origin is controversial. Clinical presentation varies depending on its location; invagination and
obstruction are the most common indicative symptoms when the polyp is located at the level of the small intestine. We report the case of a 60-year old patient with abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting and a personal history of intermittent constipation. Radiological imaging objectified ileo-ileal invagination
completely obstructing the ileum light. Segmental resection of the obstructed ileal segment and terminalterminal anastomosis were performed. The final diagnosis of IFP was established using histological examination.
Candida septic arthritis is a debilitating condition affecting joint function. Candida tropicalis, an organism found in normal human flora is noted to be the third most common pathogenic yeast in the elderly and immunosuppressed population. Infections are rare in the US, typically limited to the neonate
and elderly populations. Most infections occur in the south America and southeast Asian regions. In the last 2 decades, Tropialis infection rates have risen impart due to antifungal resistance. We present a case of Candida tropicalis infection in the knee of a 13-year-old female with a past history of relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia following bone marrow transplant, pancytopenia and graft vs. host disease.
When properly performed, the true Maze procedure is highly effective to eliminate any type of atrial fibrillation or flutter. Since non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is sustained by macro-reentrant circuits located anywhere in both atria, a full bi-atrial lesion pattern is the best way to approach all possible causes in one single step. As we move into less invasive surgical techniques, we must more clearly maintain the
scope of the Maze procedure. Difficult approaches are oftentimes the source for incomplete, unsuccessful,
and frustrated forms of the Maze. T

A 10-year-old boy with a history of repaired tetralogy of Fallot underwent cardiac catheterization for recurrent left pulmonary artery stenosis. During the procedure, the patient's capnogram waveform displayed an unusual variable plateau pattern. This was attributed to ventilation-perfusion abnormalities from the critical left pulmonary artery stenosis, which caused differential lung perfusion with only 10% perfusion to the left lung. Balloon angioplasty and stent placement of the left pulmonary artery immediately normalized the capnogram waveform. The case report discusses how capnography can detect critical perfusion abnormalities through abnormal waveform patterns.
The objective of this letter is to report recent advances on the diagnosis and therapy of the loin pain hematuria syndrome (LPHS). The patho-aetiological link of LPHS with symptomatic
nephroptosis (SN) is a novel discovery of the 21st century that was first preliminary reported in 2002 [1]. The link was confirmed in 2016 in an article that précised the exact pathoaetiology of LPHS; ischemic nephritis and sympathetic neuropathy of SN. It also advanced a 100% curative therapy for LPHS namely; the renal sympathetic denervation and nephropexy (RSD&N) surgery [2].

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
