Lifesaving surgical approaches for severe penetrating knife injury to the neck.
J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Institute of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, Madras Medical College, Chennai, India.
Background: Penetrating neck injuries are rare and require urgent surgical intervention to prevent life-threatening complications. This report highlights a unique case involving complex surgical repair of tracheal, esophageal, and vascular injuries following a homicidal assault, emphasizing the challenges and techniques used in managing such severe trauma.
Case Presentation: A 45-year-old female presented with a severe penetrating neck injury after an alleged homicidal assault with a knife.

Deployment-related constrictive bronchiolitis (DRCB) has emerged as a health concern in military personnel returning from Southwest Asia. Exposure to smoke from a fire at the Al-Mishraq sulfur enrichment facility and/or burn pits was reported by a subset of Veterans diagnosed with this disorder. DRCB is characterized by thickening and fibrosis of small airways (SA) in the lung, but whether these are related to toxin inhalation remains uncertain.

Department of Neurosurgery, Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital, Frankfurt, Germany.
Introduction: Breathing-synchronized hypoglossal-nerve stimulation is a treatment option for suitable patients with severe obstructive-sleep-apnoea. The classical implantation technique requires three incisions: submental to place the stimulating-electrode on terminal branches of the hypoglossal-nerve, sub-clavicular to place the impulse generator, and on the lateral chest-wall to place a breathing-sensor lead. A two-incision-technique has been propagated and widely adopted whereby the respiratory-sensing-lead is placed deeper to the IPG-pocket.

Stomatological College of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing 210029, China.
Objectives: This study aims to compare the effects of two orthodontic treatment modalities for skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion on specific changes in airway volume, morphology, palatal angle, mandibular rotation, and bone displacement. Results provide scientific evidence for the selection of orthodontic treatment plans and reduce the risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).
Methods: Thirty-six patients diagnosed with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion at the Department of Orthodontics, the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from September 2018 to December 2023 were divided into two groups: orthodontic-orthognathic treatment group (18 patients) and camouflage orthodontic treatment group (18 patients).
