Background: Evaluation of the result on the nasal septum (NS) of primary anterior septoplasty in cleft surgery is lacking. The deviation in patients with a cleft between those with (S+) and without (S-) primary anterior septoplasty during a cleft lip repair was compared.

Methods: This was a retrospective, descriptive, single-center study.

Idiopathic purpura fulminans (IPF) is a rare and severe form of purpura fulminans caused by acquired protein S deficiency. It can lead to severe thrombotic complications, such as large skin necrosis and amputation. The lesions almost exclusively affect the lower limbs, and their distribution is similar among patients with IPF, unlike classical purpura fulminans lesions.

Article Synopsis
  • A personalized 3D breast model could enhance patient-surgeon discussions and surgical planning by accurately simulating breast tissue properties.
  • The study aimed to measure breast skin thickness and the stiffness of different breast tissues, considering factors like age, BMI, and menopausal status as potential influences.
  • Results indicated that menopausal status significantly impacted breast skin thickness and stiffness, with average measurements found to be 1.83 mm for skin thickness and 39 kPa for breast tissue stiffness, and future work will focus on integrating these findings into a biomechanical model.
