Purpose: To evaluate long-term anatomical and functional outcomes in eyes undergoing scleral fixation of aniridic black diaphragm intraocular lens (BDIOL).
Methods: Total 38 eyes that underwent scleral fixation of BDIOL for secondary aniridia following ocular trauma with aphakia with absent posterior capsule or primary congenital aniridia with subluxated lens were retrospectively analyzed. Final visual acuity, early and late complications were examined.

Background: Sutural anatomy variation has long been a topic of debate among anatomists, paleontologists, and morphologists. While the exact reasons for the prevalence of this variance remains a topic of ongoing discussion, developmental and genetic factors are hypothesized to be the main reasons. Understanding the morphology and occurrence of normal sutural variations in pediatric patients is essential to making the right diagnosis, where a misinterpretation of a sutural bone may lead to an inaccurate assessment, completely misleading the diagnostic process.

Introduction: Closure of large hernia defects with minimally invasive surgery has long-been a challenge. Barbed sutures have helped us bridge this technical gap, but their off-label use is not well studied.
Materials And Methods: We describe a suturing technique for minimally invasive ventral hernia repair (MIS-VHR) termed "progressive defect tensioning" and explore its theoretical advantages.

Introduction: As medical education increasingly incorporates digital methods such as video lectures, e-learning, and virtual meetings, it becomes crucial to evaluate the effectiveness of virtual classrooms in teaching surgical techniques. This study aims to assess whether live virtual classrooms can effectively convey surgical skills to medical students.
Methods: First- and second-y medical students were randomized to in-person or live-video sessions once a week, for 2 wk.

Background: For complete disruption of the posterolateral corner (PLC) structures, operative treatment is most commonly advocated, as nonoperative treatment has higher rates of persistent lateral laxity and posttraumatic arthritis. Some studies have shown that acute direct repair results in revision rates upwards of 37% to 40% compared with 6% to 9% for initial reconstruction. In a recent study assessing the outcomes of acute repair of PLC avulsion injuries with 2 to 7 years of follow-up, patients with adequate tissue were shown to have a much lower failure rate than previously documented.
