Anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR) is one of the most common types temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which is often characterized by joint pain, abnormal joint sounds, and limited mouth opening. Disc repositioning has been described as an effective method to reduce joint pain and improve range of motion. Yang's arthroscopic disc repositioning and suturing surgery has been reported to be the most stable technique with 95%-98% of success rate.

Background: Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) is increasingly used in the treatment of intermediate and high-risk acute pulmonary embolism (PE), and the treatment of high-risk PE with the aid of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has also been reported. However, there are few reports of VA-ECOM-assisted PMT in the treatment of high-risk PE. The purpose of this study is to summarize the data of 11 patients with high-risk PE treated with VA-ECMO assisted PMT, and propose feasible treatment methods for such patients.

Background: Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited ion channelopathy characterized by a structurally normal heart sensitive to catecholamines. It primarily presents as Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BiVT) and is a significant cause of sudden cardiac death in children.
Case Presentation: We report our experience with central Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) therapy in a 4-year-old boy with CPVT.

The physiology of the kidney has long been understood, and its mechanisms are well described. The pathology of renal failure is also a deeply researched area. It seems logical, therefore, to create devices that can replace the lost normal function of the kidney.

Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a complex, life-saving procedure that uses mechanical support for patients with refractory cardiac arrest, representing the pinnacle of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) applications. Effective ECPR requires precise patient selection, rapid mobilization of a multidisciplinary team, and skilled cannulation techniques. Establishing a program necessitates a cohesive ECMO system that promotes interdisciplinary collaboration, which is essential for managing acute cardiogenic shock and severe pulmonary failure.
