Purpose: To evaluate the usefulness of pressure bandage with kidney-shaped cotton pad in parotidectomy and the relevant factors of parotid salivary fistula occurring after parotidectomy.
Methods: One hundred and ninety-six patients with parotid benign tumor or tumor-like lesions were randomly divided into two groups, 100 cases in the kidney-shaped cotton pad group and 96 cases in the traditional management group. The incidence of postoperative salivary in relation to surgical procedure, main parotid duct ligation, and parotid salivary fistula was analyzed. SPSS13.0 software package was used for Chi-square test.
Results: The incidence of parotid salivary fistula in the kidney-shaped cotton pad group was 1%, and the incidence in the traditional management group was 13.54%. The difference between the two groups was significant(P<0.01); Different surgical procedure, ligating the main parotid duct or not, had no effect on salivary fistula(P>0.05).
Conclusions: The kidney-shaped cotton pad pressure bandaging can effectively prevent the occurrence of postoperative salivary fistula and has certain value in clinical application.

Article Synopsis
- Percutaneous renal access (PCA) is a challenging procedure in endourology, and hands-on training with a realistic simulator can help reduce the learning curve and complications.
- The TOMATO model, made using inexpensive items like a yoga mat and tomatoes, replicates the renal structure and facilitates effective training for PCA techniques without needing liquid-contrast enhancement.
- Testing showed that residents experienced significant improvements in kidney access time and radiation time after using the TOMATO model, indicating its effectiveness as a training tool.

U.S. Forest Service, St. Paul, MN 55108.
Multiple annual cankers were observed on the upper main stems of bitternut hickory (Carya cordiformis) exhibiting top dieback in Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, and Wisconsin during a 2006 to 2008 survey of declining hickory. The top-killed trees had normal-sized, green leaves below and the cankers were oval, sunken, and bounded by heavy callus that seemed to arrest further canker expansion. Fusarium solani was consistently isolated from the margins of inner bark lesions or discolored sapwood of the cankers.
