Navigation-assisted endoscopic U-flap technique and steroid-eluting stent for choanal atresia repair.

Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China. Electronic address:

Objectives: Surgery is the only treatment for congenital choanal atresia (CCA). It is crucial to avoid postoperative restenosis or re-occlusion of the neo-choana. This study investigated the efficacy of a navigation-assisted endoscopic endonasal U-flap technique and a bioabsorbable steroid-eluting stent for CCA repair.

Article Synopsis
  • A multicenter study is assessing the safety and effectiveness of a cutting balloon angioplasty combined with a bioabsorbable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stent for treating calcified coronary artery lesions in patients.
  • The trial involves comparing the cutting balloon (Wolverine™) to a non-compliant balloon in a group of 250 patients who have received the Synergy™ stent, focusing on outcomes like stent area, major cardiac events, and operational metrics.
  • The research aims to validate the use of cutting balloons for a range of calcified lesions, potentially influencing insurance coverage for these procedures.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the development of bioabsorbable metals for medical implants like vascular stents, which release metal ions and degradation products into surrounding tissues, an area that hasn't been well researched.* -
  • Researchers used a technique called laser ablation inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-TOF-MS) to analyze the distribution and concentration of corrosion products from a new magnesium alloy (WE22) implanted in the vascular system of mice.* -
  • Findings show the presence of corrosion products in various vascular structures and suggest that their distribution may be influenced by inflammatory cells, particularly macrophages, within the tissue.*

Systematic Review of Femoral Artery Stent Fractures.

EJVES Vasc Forum

August 2024

Department of Vascular Surgery, Kidney Transplantation and Innovation, Strasbourg University Hospital, Strasbourg, France.

Objective: Primary stenting for long femoropopliteal (FP) lesions remains controversial because of the high risk of stent fracture (SF). This study aimed to summarise current knowledge on SF from randomised control trials about FP stenting.

Methods: A systematic review of the Medline database was performed by a combined strategy of MeSH terms: femoral artery, popliteal artery, stenting, and stent fracture.
