Study Design: Literature Review with clinical recommendations.
Objective: To highlight impactful studies on pyogenic spondylodiscitis (PS), identified by the AO Spine Knowledge Forum Trauma and Infection, with recommendations for their integration into clinical practice.
Methods: Five influential studies on PS that have the potential to shape current practice in spinal infections were selected and reviewed.

Background/objectives: For healthcare institutions developing a robotic programme, delivering value for patients, clinicians, and payers is key. However, the impact on the surgeon, training pathways, and logistics are often overlooked. We conducted a study on the impact of robotic surgery on surgeons, access to robotic surgical training, and factors associated with developing a successful robotic programme.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a very successful operation. Once the problem of implant fixation was solved with the use of bone cement, the next development steps focused on improving the bearing. Weber, a Swiss surgeon, introduced the first modular heads in THA.

We report the use of the Harms trabeculotome to facilitate 360° microcatheter advancement during illuminated microcatheter-assisted circumferential trabeculotomy (IMCT) ab externo in a 3-month-old infant with bilateral primary congenital glaucoma who required repeat surgery. The illuminated microcatheter was advanced 270°, from 9 to 6 o'clock; however, a focal blockage occurred, and, despite viscodilation, further advancement was not possible. The surgeon introduced a right Harms trabeculotome in the opposite direction, counterclockwise through the same scleral flap.

Introduction: The relationship between facial asymmetry and cervical anomaly is rarely mentioned in the diagnosis of dento-maxillo-facial orthopaedics. It is regrettable that the study of the cervical spine is often ignored in the etio-pathogenesis of these dysmorphoses, particularly in cases of facial asymmetry.
Objective: The aim is twofold: to encourage orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons to make a systematic study of the cervical spine in craniofacial dysmorphoses and in particular craniofacial asymmetries, without claiming that they are becoming specialists in cervical spine pathology, and to introduce the necessary training in malformations of this anatomical region as part of the orthodontist specialisation curriculum.
