Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) often necessitates spinal fusion surgery in pediatric patients, posing significant challenges in postoperative pain management. Standard care involves the administration of intravenous opioids perioperatively, often requiring high doses to achieve adequate analgesia following an operation. This increases the risk of adverse events, may delay recovery and prolong hospital stay, and increases the likelihood of future abuse and dependence.

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this review is to evaluate the existing literature in order to compare the clinical outcomes and complications associated with the kidner procedure and simple excision procedure. Furthermore, this review will help determine if one procedure is advantageous over the other in treating accessory navicular among patients.
Recent Findings: Previous research on this topic has seen a low success rate in treating patients with symptomatic accessory navicular using conservative treatment options such as shoe-wear modification, braces, and/or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory.
Article Synopsis
- Lung cancer is a prevalent and deadly disease, with 20% to 40% of patients experiencing metastatic bone disease, leading to pain and related complications that can shorten survival.
- The study aimed to conduct a network meta-analysis of randomized trials to evaluate which bone-modifying agent (denosumab or bisphosphonates) offers the best outcomes in terms of overall survival, time to skeletal-related events (SREs), SRE incidence, and pain relief.
- A total of 131 randomized controlled trials involving 11,105 lung cancer patients were included in the analysis, following strict guidelines for systematic reviews to ensure reliable data extraction and evaluation.
