The aim of this study was to comparatively determine the frequency of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) by using prospective monitoring with perometer and circumferential measurements in a group of patients who underwent breast cancer surgery. We also aimed to evaluate the relationship between volume changes and functional status and quality of life (QoL) in patients with breast cancer-related subclinical lymphedema. Patients who had unilateral breast cancer surgery for breast were assessed with circumferential and perometer, respectively, for volumes at baseline, 3rd-month, 6th-month, 9th-month, and 12th-month by the same physiotherapist.

We reviewed the efficacy and safety of intravenous administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) in randomized trials involving patients undergoing intracranial meningioma resection surgery, with special emphasis on the effects of different dosages. A comprehensive search was conducted in the following databases: Cochrane, PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Lilacs, and Web of Science. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts, reviewed the full texts and collected data.

Background: Combat-related injuries have evolved in urban warfare because of close-contact engagements and high-energy blast injuries, with rapid medical evacuation improving survival rates. This study analyzes injury patterns and outcomes in the Gaza conflict, emphasizing the need to optimize trauma care protocols in modern combat environments, particularly because of the unique proximity of conflict zones to tertiary trauma centers.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at a single center involving 189 patients evacuated by helicopter to a Level I tertiary trauma center.
Application of Robot-assisted Pancreaticobiliary Junction Resection in Benign Duodenal Tumors.

Robot-assisted pancreaticobiliary junction resection is a surgical technique employed to treat benign duodenal tumors. The procedure involves several key steps: making a longitudinal incision in the duodenum, excising the tumor at the pancreaticobiliary junction, inserting a biliary stent, connecting the biliary and duodenal mucosa, and suturing the duodenal incision during phase I. The robotic system enhances visibility, facilitates precise operations, minimizes duodenal traction injuries to the duodenum and surgical trauma, ensures accurate suture and fixation of bile duct stents, connects the bile duct and duodenal mucosa and reduces postoperative recovery time.
