We describe a modification of the cadaveric prolapse repair and sling - CaPS technique that uses the sling surgery principles to correct grade IV cystocele. In this modification, the central and paravaginal defects reconstitution are performed using cadaveric fascia lata fixed over rectus abdominis muscle, eliminating the need of pubic fixation by screws, as proposed by the original technique. The modification described, besides presenting the benefits of CaPS, i.e., not using impaired tissues to reconstruct vesical support, and lower risks of perineal hypercorrection, also reduces the probability of complications of bone fixation.

Purpose: To explore if recentering the humeral head could improve shoulder abduction in shoulders with irreparable massive rotator cuff tears (IMRCTs).
Methods: Nine fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders were used to simulate the intact condition and IMRCTs as controls. Four 'recenter' interventions were then sequentially applied: subacromial interposition (SI) using 4- and 8-mm spacers and superior capsule reconstruction (SCR) using two- and four-layer fascia lata grafts.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the penile fibrovascular assembly to determine if it functions as an independent vascular compartment within the human body, addressing a gap in cardiovascular research.
- Researchers examined 23 male cadavers and analyzed extensive medical imaging and hemodynamic data to gain insight into the structure and function of the penile vasculature.
- Results indicate that the human penis contains a unique bi-layered fibrovascular assembly with atypical vascular patterns, challenging previous assumptions about penile venous drainage.
Facial lipoatrophy, a sign of normal aging, also occurs due to lipodystrophy from metabolic disorders affecting lipogenesis. It can be hereditary or acquired, localized or generalized. In HIV patients, prolonged antiretroviral therapy (ART) is a major cause, affecting around 55% of patients with 47% experiencing facial lipoatrophy.

Introduction: Synthetic materials have traditionally been used to reconstruct the diaphragm during extensive surgery for pleural mesothelioma. However, new biomaterials have shown promising results in various surgical fields. This study describes our experience using homologous fascia lata for diaphragm reconstruction in patients undergoing surgery with radical intent for pleural mesothelioma.

CSF rhinorrhea secondary to anterior skull base defect may be spontaneous or traumatic (accidental or iatrogenic), spontaneous being common in middle aged, obese females. Nowadays endoscopic technique is gold standard for anterior skull base defect repair. The graft materials available may be autologous (fat, temporalis fascia, fascia lata, septal mucosa, cartilage, middle turbinate), homologous e.
