A 25 year old male student presented with a discharging sinus and swelling over right forearm, which on culture yielded S. typhi, sensitive to Ciprofloxacin. Predisposing factors were absent but there was a history of surgery for chronic osteomyelitis of right ulna and injury with cricket ball at same site. Pus obtained during surgery was sterile. Patient responded to oral Ciprofloxacin. Soft tissue infections are uncommon manifestation of salmonellosis. This case is an unusual presentation of post-operative Salmonella typhi wound infection.

Proper timing or ERCP and cholecystectomy on acute cholecystitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Acta Cir Bras
January 2025
Instituto de Ensino, Pesquisa e Inovação - Liga Contra o Câncer - Natal (RN) - Brazil.
Purpose: To determine if endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) should be performed with surgery or as a different step, on acute cholecystitis, and which strategy has the least complications and morbimortality.
Methods: Various databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature, clinical trials, Google Scholar) were searched for randomized trials comparing the different timings for ERCP and cholecystectomy. No language or time restrictions were applied.
The use of topical antiseptic solutions in the healing process of post-surgical skin wounds in dogs (Canis lupus familiaris).
Acta Cir Bras

Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco - Programa de Pós-Graduação em Medicina Veterinária - Departamento de Morfologia e Fisiologia Animal - Recife (PE) - Brazil.
Purpose: To evaluate whether the effectiveness of topical antiseptic solutions in restoring skin continuity solutions is related to their antimicrobial action or to their action in maintaining moisture, in dogs undergoing elective surgeries.
Methods: Forty dogs, 20 males and 20 females, underwent orchiectomy and oophorectomy, respectively. Thereafter, the animals were allocated into four groups (n = 5) and treated with different topical solutions: polyhexanide 0.

Burn injuries in patients with significant pre-existing medical conditions provide unique challenges in both medical management and surgical planning. Spasticity, if left untreated, can be one of the most disabling consequences of a neurologic injury. Treatment is largely dependent on pharmacologic management with anti-spasmodic agents such as baclofen.

Operative Unit of Dentistry, Azienda Unità Sanitaria Locale, Ferrara, Italy.
Background: The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically-oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).
Methods: The technique is based on the stratification of three layers: a deep layer with a collagen sponge (CS) in the apical part of the alveolus (where the buccal bone plate was still present) to support the blood clot; a graft layer to correct the PIBD; and a superficial collagen layer to cover the graft thus providing space and enhancing clot/graft stability. Healing was obtained by primary closure.
The immunoglobulin of yolk and cerium oxide-based fibrous poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide)/gelatin dressings enable skin regeneration in an infectious wound model.

The bacterial infection and oxidative wound microenvironment delay skin repair and necessitate intelligent wound dressings to enable scarless wound healing. The immunoglobulin of yolk (IgY) exhibits immunotherapeutic potential for the potential treatment of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, while cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO NPs) could scavenge superoxide dismutase (SOD) and inflammation. The overarching objective of this study was to incorporate IgY and CeO NPs into poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide)/gelatin (PLGA/Gel)-based dressings (P/G@IYCe) for infected skin repair.
