Accuracy of a New Augmented Reality Assisted Technique for Total Knee Arthroplasty: An In Vivo Study.

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains the standard of care for treating end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee. Approximately 15%-20% of the patients are dissatisfied following surgery. To improve accuracy and outcomes of TKA, various assistive technologies have been introduced.

Real-life multi-center retrospective analysis on nivolumab in difficult-to-treat patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. The landscape of the systemic treatment for advanced HCC is changing quickly, and recently, the standard of care became either atezolizumab plus bevacizumab or tremelimumab plus durvalumab in the single tremelimumab regular interval durvalumab regimen. Nivolumab monotherapy has proven to be effective sometimes for advanced HCC and could be a valuable treatment option for patients outside current treatment indications and reimbursement criteria for the standard of care.

How should we evaluate robotics in the operating theatre?

The application of robotics in the operating theatre for knee arthroplasty remains controversial. As with all new technology, the introduction of new systems might be associated with a learning curve. However, guidelines on how to assess the introduction of robotics in the operating theatre are lacking.
