Article Abstract
Objective: To analyze the incidence of surgical complications its diagnosis and treatment after renal transplantation.
Methods: A retrospective study measuring the incidence of surgical complications and reviewing its diagnosis and treatment in 185 renal single transplants.
Results: 185 transplants, 27% had surgical complications. Only one patient lost the graft due to surgical complications and there was no associated mortality. Cold ischemia time 20 hours. Double J stenting in 19%, under surgeon's opinion. Vascular complications 3.2% (all of them renal artery stenosis). Urological complications 6.4%. Perinephric haematoma 7%. Lymphocele 4.9%. Peritoneum related complications 4%. Other 4%. The diagnosis was clinical and radiological in most of cases. 14% needed any kind of intervention.
Conclusions: Our results are similar to those reported in other recent series. Only one surgical team involved and the same technique for vascular and vesico-ureteric anastomosis probably makes lower our complications rate. Early postoperative abdominal ultrasonography contributes to the diagnosis of surgical complications. The initial treatment approach is the endoscopic-conservative one, with exceptions.

Background: Clavicle fractures associated with ipsilateral coracoid process fractures are very rare, with limited literature reporting only a few cases. This study reports on 27 patients with ipsilateral concomitant fractures of the clavicle and coracoid process who were followed for more than 12 months.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study reviewed the charts of skeletally mature patients with traumatic ipsilateral clavicle and coracoid process fractures treated at the authors' institution.

Introduction: Blunt traumatic aortic injury (TAI) is a critical condition and a leading cause of mortality in trauma patients, often resulting from high-speed accidents. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has developed into the preferred therapeutic approach due to its minimally invasive nature and promising outcomes. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of TEVAR for managing TAI over a 10-year period at a Level-1 trauma center.

Knowledge on the effect of different nicotine consumption modalities on dermatologic surgical outcomes is limited, with conflicting conclusions. Cigarette smoking is known to adversely affect outcomes, but the impact of other nicotine consumption modalities like cigars, smokeless tobacco, and nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) is less understood. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of various nicotine consumption modalities on complication rates after Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS).
