Total Thyroidectomy Versus Partial Thyroidectomy for Non-Toxic Multinodular Goiter: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Unlabelled: Thyroid follicular nodular disease (non-toxic multinodular goiter), the commonest thyroid disorder, can be managed with different surgical methods, including total thyroidectomy (TT), near-total thyroidectomy (NTT), subtotal thyroidectomy (STT), and Dunhill operation (DO). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to provide an update on the role of TT versus NTT, STT, or DO in MNG concerning goiter recurrence, thyroid cancer incidence, and reported complications. We conducted a systematic literature search in Medline, EMBASE, and CENTRAL.

Controlling the Apex in Early Onset Scoliosis Through Active Apex Correction (APC) Non Fusion Growth Modulating Technique, Is It a Myth?

Study Design: A multicenter retrospective study.

Objectives: To determine the rate of Apex facet fusion in children with Early Onset Scoliosis treated surgically with the Active Apex Correction (APC) technique.

Methods: Seventeen patients were treated with the APC technique as index surgery for Early Onset Scoliosis with more than 1 year of follow-up.

Life-threatening bilateral internal carotid artery and unilateral vertebral artery total occlusion presenting with dizziness: a case report.

Introduction: It is well known that whereas bilateral occlusion is less common, unilateral internal carotid artery blockage happens regularly. Asymptomatic to fatal ischemic stroke can be the clinical presentation, depending on whether there is adequate collateral blood flow. Internal carotid artery occlusion is often associated with significant neurologic events, both at the time of initial occlusion and during follow-up.
