Department of General, Visceral, Thoracic, Vascular and Transplant Surgery, University Medical Center Rostock, Rostock, Germany.
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is the third most common endocrine disease, affecting predominantly postmenopausal women.

Parathyroidectomy is the only curative treatment.

In carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), pain and sensory disturbance are the main symptoms, but thumb palmar abduction (TPA) paralysis cannot be ignored as a concurrent symptom. The reliable quantitative measurement of TPA power was not established. The purpose of this study was to report on the reliability of TPA strength measurements by the hand-held dynamometry (HHD) in large samples of CTS and its superiority over other tests, including grip, pinch powers, TPA angles and manual muscle testing, in terms of clinical progress indicators.

Department of Urology, College of Medicine and Life Sciences, The University of Toledo, Toledo, OH, USA.
Background: Penile cancer is a rare malignancy treated via various surgical techniques guided by disease stage and grade with current guidelines suggesting partial or total penectomy for those with pT2 or greater. We report a case of a patient with pT2 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis who underwent circumcision with left partial-glansectomy and resection of preputial mass with good oncological control while providing good urinary and sexual function.
Case Description: An 82-year-old male presented to the clinic due to a mass that doubled in size in an 8-month timeframe.
Comparison of Outcomes of Deep Sclerectomy, Canaloplasty, and Viscocanaloplasty: A Multi-Centred Study.

January 2025
Ophthalmology Unit, University Hospital Maggiore della Carità, Novara, Italy.
Prcis: Deep sclerectomy (DS) and canaloplasty provide better intraocular pressure (IOP) control than viscocanalostomy. DS required less glaucoma medications but more interventions to reach target IOP.
Purpose: To compare real-world outcomes of three non-penetrating glaucoma surgery (NPGS) techniques.

Purpose Of The Study: Rhizarthrosis-osteoarthritis of the thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint is usually a primary idiopathic disease. Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is one of the surgical treatment options for symptomatic advanced thumb CMC arthritis. This retrospective study aims to evaluate the mid-term functional and radiological results of TJA with the minimum follow-up period of 3 years after the surgery.
