Objective: Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an antifibrinolytic drug that has achieved significant reduction in perioperative blood loss and the quantity of blood transfused in many pediatric surgical procedures, without morbidity. Despite the accumulation of evidence regarding its effectiveness in craniosynostosis repair surgery, TXA is not unanimously employed by pediatric neurosurgery teams. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of the routine use of TXA in a homogeneous population of children who underwent open surgery for monosutural craniosynostosis.

Introduction: Surgical treatment of Grade III gynecomastia generally utilizes mastectomy techniques and free transplantation of the nipple-areola complex. Moreover, with rising obesity rates and the development of bariatric surgery, an increasing demand for correctional surgery for pseudogynecomastia has been observed, which is comparable to Grade III gynecomastia in terms of its surgical management. Here, we describe an innovative technique to deal with these new demands: fascio-cutaneous flap by postero-inferior pedicle.

Background: The aim of our study was to analyze which of these 2 techniques (biceps femoris myocutaneous flap vs gluteus maximus myocutaneous flap) gave the best result for ischial pressure ulcers treatment.

Methods: A retrospective comparative analysis of medical records for stage III and IV pressure ulcers was conducted between the 2 groups by Fisher exact test for categorical variables (significance level P <0.05) followed by a survival analysis by the Kaplan-Meier method.
