Postoperative hemorrhages (POHs) after pituitary adenoma surgery can have devastating consequences for patients. Many patients take acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for the primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular or stroke events. However, the impact of continued low-dose ASA use on the risk of postoperative hemorrhage and the frequency of thromboembolic events after discontinuing ASA in these patients remain poorly understood.

The influence of Acrylate Styrene Acrylonitrile (ASA) and ASA/nanosilica (ASA/Si) additives was investigated by using a dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Firstly, an ASA polymer was blended with the virgin asphalt binder at two different concentrations (3% ASA and 5% ASA). After observing that 5% ASA was the optimum concentration for modification, nanosilica particles were further incorporated into the 5% ASA-modified asphalt binder with two different percentages (5% ASA 3%Si; 5% ASA 5%Si).

Background/objectives: Patients with gliomas show an increased risk of spontaneous hemorrhages throughout the disease. Simultaneously, the number of patients taking acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for primary and secondary prophylaxis is rising in daily clinical practice, and interrupting ASA intake before elective or emergency intracranial surgery is not always feasible. This study aims to evaluate the risks associated with continuing ASA use perioperatively while focusing on hemorrhage and potential thromboembolic events that may arise from discontinuing ASA, particularly in multimorbid patients undergoing glioma surgery.

Study Design: Retrospective analysis.
Objective: This study sought to report the long-term outcomes of patients that underwent minimally invasive surgery (MIS) correction for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) in terms of radiographic, clinical, and patient-reported outcomes. Furthermore, we examined the learning curve of MIS technique over the course of 13 years.
