Orbito-cranial schwannoma-a multicentre experience.

Objectives: To describe the features, management approaches, and outcomes of orbito-cranial schwannomas.

Methods: Retrospective review of ten patients with orbito-cranial schwannomas managed in six orbital services over 22 years. Data collected included demographics, presenting features, neuroimaging characteristics, histology, management approach, complications, and outcomes.

Delayed Judgments of Learning Are Associated With Activation of Information From Past Experiences: A Neurobiological Examination.

Research in metacognition suggests that the information people use to predict their memory performance can vary depending on the contexts in which they make their predictions. For example, if people judge their memories after a delay from initial encoding, they may be more likely to use retrieved information about the past encoding experience than if they judged memories immediately after encoding. Although this seems intuitive, past behavioral and neuroimaging work has not tested whether delayed memory judgments are more strongly coupled with information about past experiences than immediate memory judgments.

Understanding families' experiences following a diagnosis of non-syndromic craniosynostosis: a qualitative study.

Objectives: Craniosynostosis is typically diagnosed and surgically corrected within the first year of life. The diagnosis and surgical correction of the condition can be a very stressful experience for families. Despite this, there is little research exploring the impact that craniosynostosis has on families, especially in the period immediately following diagnosis and correction.

Successful same day discharge after immediate post-mastectomy alloplastic breast reconstruction: A single tertiary centre retrospective audit.

Background: Immediate Post-Mastectomy Alloplastic Breast Reconstruction (IPMABR) traditionally requires a post-operative overnight stay. Recent initiatives have identified same day discharge as a safe option.

Methods: A retrospective audit of all cases at a tertiary breast cancer centre was performed.

Hands-on Gross Anatomy Instruction Improves Clinical Imaging Skills Among Cardiovascular Fellows.

Introduction: Multi-modality imaging is a crucial component of cardiovascular (CV) fellowship training and requires knowledge of CV anatomy for interpretation. We hypothesized that hands-on anatomy education would improve the imaging interpretation skills of CV fellows.

Methods: The first-year CV fellowship class completed a hands-on cadaveric anatomy session correlated with clinical imaging.
