Advancements in Endoscopic Treatment for Gastric Subepithelial Tumors.
Gut Liver

Peroral flexible endoscopy is a minimally invasive technique that enables the local resection of gastric subepithelial tumors (SETs) with malignant potential. Resection techniques are mainly chosen on the basis of the lesion size. Minute SETs less than 1 cm should be managed through a watch and wait strategy, with the exception of histologically diagnosed superficial lesions, which require endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Jones Eye Institute, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas, U.S.A.
Purpose: To evaluate the long-term outcomes of enucleation without conjunctival closure in a large patient cohort.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted from January 2011 to January 2024, examining 144 eyes of 143 patients who underwent enucleation without conjunctival closure by a single oculoplastic surgeon. Data collected included patient demographics, indications for surgery, implant types, and complications.
Long-term Follow Up of a Complex Case of Foldable Capsular Vitreous Bag Implantation.
Retin Cases Brief Rep
December 2024
Liverpool Ocular Oncology Research Centre, Department of Molecular and Clinical Cancer Medicine, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK.
Purpose: The Foldable Capsular Vitreous Bag (FCVB) implant is useful in maintaining ocular structure in cases of chronic hypotony secondary to trauma or repeated surgery. There are few published reports of long-term outcomes and no indication of the chronic cellular changes of the adjacent tissues associated with FCVB implantation. We describe one of few FCVB cases in the UK and present histological findings associated with it following secondary enucleation.

Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg
December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery Service, Massachusetts Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess the surgical costs of enucleations and eviscerations and their relation to current reimbursement rates using time-driven activity-based costing.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients undergoing enucleation and evisceration surgeries with attachment of muscles (Current Procedural Terminology 65105 and 65093) for a diagnosis of blind, painful eye, from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2023, at a single, tertiary level, teaching hospital. A time-driven activity-based cost analysis for day of surgery was performed.
Comparative Outcomes of En-Bloc Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate and Transvesical Robot-Assisted Simple Prostatectomy for the Management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Propensity-Matched Analysis.

Department of Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital, New York City, New York, USA.
Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) have emerged as the two surgical treatments of medication-refractory benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The comparative outcomes of en-bloc HoLEP with early apical release and RASP with modified Freyer's technique remain unexplored. Between 2018 and 2022, patients with medication-refractory BPH and prostate volume ≥80 g underwent HoLEP or RASP depending on clinical characteristics, patient choice, and surgeon preference.
