Effectiveness and Tolerability of Fondaparinux vs Enoxaparin in a Population of Indian Patients with Symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis: A Retrospective Real-World Study.

Background: Fondaparinux is the first approved anticoagulant drug among factor Xa inhibitors, with proven effectiveness and safety in preventing deep vein thrombosis. However, limited data are available supporting the benefit-risk profile of fondaparinux vs enoxaparin in a real-world group of Indian patients with deep vein thrombosis.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness and tolerability of fondaparinux vs enoxaparin in patients with symptomatic deep vein thrombosis in a long-term real-world setting.

Indocyanine Green Angiography to Prognosticate Healing of Foot Ulcer in Critical Limb Ischemia: A Novel Technique.

Background: To predict wound healing in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) is an ongoing issue. Current methods such as ankle-brachial index (ABI), color Doppler and transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TCPO), and computed tomography angiography are lacking in demonstrating regional perfusion. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) has the potential to provide regional perfusion information lacking in other methods.

A Rare Entity: Traumatic Thoracic Aortic Injury in a Patient with Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery.

Background: Aberrant right subclavian artery is an uncommon entity incidence ranging from 0.5 to 2.5%.

Primary mucormycosis of abdominal wall: A rare fungal infection in a immunocompetent patient.

Mucormycosis of the anterior abdominal wall is an uncommon disease and it is very rare to find this disease in immunocompetent, non-diabetic patients which usually affects patients with trauma, with contaminated wounds, patients with underlying malignancies or patients with immunocompromised state, e.g., diabetics.

Traditional polypropylene and lightweight meshes in totally extraperitoneal inguinal herniorrhaphy.

Background: Placement of a prosthetic mesh is integral to successful totally extraperitoneal (TEP) herniorrhaphy. Available meshes have supported the surgical efforts well but search for an ideal mesh continues. Post-herniorrhaphy pain is an index of patient reported outcomes (PRO).
