Staff satisfaction with reusable surgical drapes.

Background: Reusable surgical textiles have substantial environmental benefits over single-use, disposable items. However, staff satisfaction with the performance of reusable textiles is unclear. During a trial period using reusable drapes, staff were surveyed regarding satisfaction with the products.

Outcomes following extended resection of radiation-induced angiosarcoma of the breast: a sarcoma unit experience and systematic review.

Purpose: Radiation-induced angiosarcoma (RIAS) of the breast is a rare tumour with high rate of local recurrence. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of radical resections.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent extended surgical resection for RIAS of the breast between 2013 and 2022.

3D-SARC: A Pilot Study Testing the Use of a 3D Augmented-Reality Model with Conventional Imaging as a Preoperative Assessment Tool for Surgical Resection of Retroperitoneal Sarcoma.

Background: Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPSs) present a surgical challenge, with complex anatomic relationships to organs and vascular structures. This pilot study investigated the role of three-dimensional (3D) augmented reality (3DAR) compared with standard imaging in preoperative planning and resection strategies.

Methods: For the study, 13 patients who underwent surgical resection of their RPS were selected based on the location of their tumor (right, left, pelvis).
