Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the feasibility, safety, and early effectiveness of a minimally invasive surgical technique called the trench technique for treating central calcified thoracic disc herniation (CCTDH) and thoracic ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (T-OPLL).
- Seven patients were analyzed retrospectively, all of whom underwent successful surgery with an average age of 51.7 years; the outcomes were measured using various clinical scores, including pain (VAS) and functional recovery (JOA).
- Results showed all surgeries were completed without complications, with a reasonable average operation time of about 80 minutes, minimal blood loss, and short postoperative hospital stays, suggesting the procedure is both effective and safe.
Rapid growth of calcified amorphous tumor with mitral annulus calcification: a case report.
Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg Cases
August 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Gifu Heart Canter, 4-14-4 Yabuta minami, Gifu-shi, Gifu, Japan.
Background: Calcified amorphous tumor (CAT) of the heart is a rare, non-neoplastic cardiac mass with mitral valves and annuli being the most common sites. The presence of mitral annular calcification (MAC) is associated with an increased risk of stroke or other systemic embolisms. Here, we report a case of CAT showing rapid growth with MAC and investigate the link between the two.

Association of optic disc drusen and small scleral canals - A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Eye (Lond)
February 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Necker-Enfants malades University Hospital, AP-HP, Paris, France.
The pathophysiology of optic disc drusen (ODD) has long been discussed. According to one leading theory, they develop from calcified mitochondria extruded from axons compressed by an unusually small scleral canal. To examine this hypothesis, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the scleral canal size in patients with ODD (PO) in comparison to healthy subjects (HS).
