Purpose: To study the anatomy of the anterior transverse ligament of the knee (TL) and to correlate its presence with the occurrence of meniscal tears.
Patients: MR imaging studies of the knee performed over a 1-year period in 49 patients were reviewed by two readers in consensus for the presence and morphology of the TL. Ten cadaveric specimens underwent MR imaging and sectioning for anatomic and histological study.
Results And Conclusion: The TL is a frequent anatomical structure that usually connects the leading edge of the core of the anterior horn of the MM, to the external portion of the anterior horn of the LM, and in many instances with the ligamentum muscosum. There is an association between the presence of a TL attachment and the presence of tears in the MM.

The pine leafhopper genus Viraktamath & Sohi was previously classified within the tribe Grypotini. In a recognized classification system, it has been categorized as the subtribe Grypotina of the tribe Koebeliini within Deltocephalinae, based on morphological characteristics such as a crown exhibiting few transverse fine striations along the anterior margin; short antennae measuring less than 1.5 times the head length but not extending to half or more of body length; ocelli positioned below the anterior margin of the crown and not visible from above, with a considerable distance from the eyes; and an anteclypeus that is narrow and tapered beyond the anterior margin of gena, alongside metatarsomere I presenting platellae on the plantar surface.

Background: Anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) is a standard surgical procedure for cervical spondylosis with spinal cord compression (CSWSCC), especially in patients with intensity on T2-weighted imaging high signal (T2WIHS). The titanium mesh cage (TMC) utilized in this procedure is essential in stabilizing the spine; however, the optimal slotting width of the TMC remains unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of TMC slotting width on the clinical and radiological outcomes of ACCF in patients with spinal cord compression type cervical spondylosis with intensity on T2WIHS (CST2WIHS).

Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) is a type of bariatric surgery. Gastric stenosis or obstruction is a known complication of LAGB; however, its occurrence after band removal is extremely rare. A 60-year-old female, who had undergone LAGB 6 years earlier and band removal 4 years prior, presented to the hospital with recurrent vomiting.
