Article Synopsis
  • - This study discusses a rare adverse event (AE) of gastrovesical fistula that occurred after the minimally invasive treatment of pancreatic walled-off necrosis (WON), an approach known to lower risks compared to traditional surgery.
  • - A 42-year-old man faced complications from transgastric drainage of a large WON, including inadvertent bladder penetration due to a stent, but was treated through a collaborative, non-surgical effort involving multiple medical specialties.
  • - The findings emphasize the need for awareness of potential AEs like gastrovesical fistula in endoscopic procedures and highlight the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary strategies for effective management.

Introduction: Heterotopic ossifications (HOs) are a well-known complication following total hip arthroplasty. Yet only little is known about the development of HOs following a femoral fracture and intramedullary stabilization in polytraumatized patients. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate whether the development of HOs is being observed more frequently in patients suffering polytrauma compared to those with single-extremity trauma.

This study investigates the rarely studied volatile organic compound emissions from a cheese production facility and the impact of its wastewater treatment system upgrade on the composition of emitted odorants. Wastewater grab samples were collected from six separate wastewater channels before (2019) and after (2021) the system upgrade and analyzed for volatile organic compounds, pH, total dissolved solids, and electrical conductivity. Results showed that the channel from hard cheese production in 2021 had the highest number of volatile organic compounds (35), followed by the fresh cheese production channel (22).

Article Synopsis
  • Kidney transplants are the best treatment for terminal kidney failure, with living donor transplants yielding significantly better outcomes compared to deceased donor ones, emphasizing safety and minimal invasiveness for donors.
  • The first robotic-assisted kidney harvesting in the Czech Republic took place in June 2022, where a 57-year-old man donated a kidney to his daughter, with no significant post-operative complications observed and satisfactory outcomes for both donor and recipient after six months.
  • Robotic-assisted donor nephrectomy is deemed a safe and viable option, offering advantages over traditional laparoscopic methods and reducing surgical stress, contributing to a global shift towards this advanced technique.
