We report a case of a 53-year-old male with inferolateral myocardial infarction, presenting an atypical Aslanger pattern on electrocardiogram (ECG). The ECG showed ST elevation in leads III, aVR, aVF, and posterior leads, with ST depression in II and V2-V6 with terminal positive T waves. Coronary angiography revealed total occlusion of the left circumflex artery (LCx) with significant stenosis of the left anterior descending (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA).

Purpose: Augmented reality navigation in liver surgery still faces technical challenges like insufficient registration accuracy. This study compared registration accuracy between local and external virtual 3D liver models (vir3DLivers) generated with different rendering techniques and the use of the left vs right main portal vein branch (LPV vs RPV) for landmark setting. The study should further examine how registration accuracy behaves with increasing distance from the ROI.

Article Synopsis
  • Enoxaparin, a medication used to treat blood clots, is dosed based on actual body weight, but its effectiveness can vary in obese patients due to distribution differences related to body composition.
  • The study evaluated dosing strategies and monitored Antifactor Xa (AFXa) levels in obese patients receiving enoxaparin, reviewing data from 762 patients over a year.
  • Results showed no significant link between dosing and AFXa levels, and the rates of treatment failure (2.2%) and bleeding (5%) were comparable to general expectations, indicating that obesity did not independently impact treatment outcomes.

Sleeve gastrectomy is the most popular procedure; however, it often requires revision surgery because of insufficient weight loss, weight regain or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). The most popular revisional procedures are Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB).
