Therapeutic experience and key techniques of tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Urology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China.
The tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is highly favored by endourological urologists for its advantages in patient experience and length of hospital stay. However, there is currently no guideline or consensus that precisely describes tubeless PCNL. This study explores tubeless PCNL from two aspects: patient selection and technical improvements.

Ann Gastroenterol Surg
January 2025
Radical lymphadenectomy is the critical component of surgery for esophageal cancer. However, lymphadenectomy significantly contributes to postoperative morbidity, particularly in terms of pulmonary complications following esophagectomy. Function-preserving mediastinal lymphadenectomy seeks to balance the procedure's necessary radicality and optimal functional outcomes.

- The study evaluated global practices in preparing and caring for patients undergoing autologous free flap breast reconstructions (ABR) to improve decision-making for surgeons.
- A survey of 280 plastic surgeons yielded 82 responses, revealing that the deep inferior epigastric perforator flap is most commonly used, with preoperative imaging primarily done through computed tomography angiography.
- Postoperative care involves regular flap monitoring by nursing staff, typically after an average hospital stay of 5 days, with handheld Dopplers being the key monitoring tool.

Department of Cardiology, Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Objectives: Surgical options for mitral valve repair in dogs are unstandardized and influenced by various factors. This study describes a four-point surgical technique (MI-4) to reduce mitral regurgitation and provides data from a study of dogs with 12 months of follow up.
Methods: Twenty-five dogs with stages C or D mitral insufficiency were treated by one of two surgeons using the MI-4 procedure at Ueno no Mori Animal Hospital between October 2021 and May 2023.
Combination of age-adjusted d-dimer, platelet distribution width and other factors predict preoperative deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture.
BMC Surg
December 2024
Department of Vascular Surgery, the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, 050051, Hebei, P.R. China.
Purpose: This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify factors associated with preoperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in elderly patients with femoral neck fractures, and to investigate whether combining these factors could improve the ability to predict DVT.
Method: Medical records and laboratory test results were reviewed patients presenting with a femoral neck fracture and receiving routine chemoprophylaxis for DVT between January 2020 and December 2023 in a tertiary referral, university-affiliated hospital. Preoperative DVT was confirmed by Doppler ultrasound or CT venography.
