Imaging Threshold for Assessment of the Correct Reduction in the Treatment of Unstable Syndesmotic Injuries - A Retrospective Analysis of 57 CT Scans.

Introduction: An incongruence of the distal tibiofibular joint (TFJ) after treatment of upper ankle joint injury represents a prearthrotic deformity and must be corrected. The objectives of this study were to analyze postoperative CT scans after surgical treatment of unstable syndesmotic injuries, and to determine the prevalence of syndesmotic malreduction and its contributing factors. The specific parameters of three-dimensional imaging for objective detection of malreduction should be identified as a helpful intraoperative imaging threshold.

A novel minimally occlusive microvascular anastomosis technique using a temporary intraluminal shunt: a prospective technique to minimize brain ischemia time during superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery bypass.

Objective: To describe a new technique of suturing microvessels with persistent perfusion via a temporary intraluminal microshunt.

Methods: Experiments were conducted in Wistar rats. Abdominal aorta grafts were explanted from donor rats.
