Chemoimmunotherapy-Resistant Ocular Surface Squamous Neoplasia Managed With I-125 Brachytherapy.
Cornea
October 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report the management of chemoimmunotherapy-resistant ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) with iodine-125 (I-125) brachytherapy.
Methods: A 36-year-old man presented to the clinic with biopsy-proven OSSN that covered ∼70% of the corneal surface and extended to the 6 o'clock position of the inferior limbus of the OS. The visual acuity was 20/20 in the OD and 20/40 in the affected OS.
Preventing Spinal Cord Injury in Single-Staged Juxtarenal and Thoracoabdominal Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair: An Evaluation of Cerebrospinal Fluid Catheter Drainage.
J Endovasc Ther
December 2024
Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Klinik Ottakring, Wiener Gesundheitsverbund, Wien, Austria.
Objective: This study offers a retrospective assessment of a single-center experience using cerebrospinal fluid catheters to reduce the risk of perioperative spinal cord injury in patients undergoing single-staged complex endovascular juxtarenal or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
Results: A total of 97 patients were included. On average, 70.
Efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy for biliary drainage in hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective study from Japan.
Clin Endosc
November 2024
Department of Gastroenterology, Aichi Cancer Center Hospital, Nagoya, Japan.
Background/aims: Biliary obstruction drainage in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is associated with symptom palliation, improved access to chemotherapy, and improved survival. Stent placement and exchange via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography biliary drainage risk traversing the HCC, a hypervascular tumor and causing bleeding. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) potentially prevents procedure-related bleeding.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIn percutaneous pelvic trauma surgery, accurate placement of Kirschner wires (K-wires) is crucial to ensure effective fracture fixation and avoid complications due to breaching the cortical bone along an unsuitable trajectory. Surgical navigation via mixed reality (MR) can help achieve precise wire placement in a low-profile form factor. Current approaches in this domain are as yet unsuitable for real-world deployment because they fall short of guaranteeing accurate visual feedback due to uncontrolled bending of the wire.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg Glob Res Rev
December 2024
From the Connecticut Orthopaedics, Fairfield, CT (Dr. Bernstein); the Epidemiology and Real-World Data Sciences, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, New Brunswick, NJ (Dr. Gupta and Ruppenkamp); the Global Health Economics and Market Access, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, Raynham, MA (Dr. Kabiri and Goldstein); and the Medical Affairs, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, Palm Beach Gardens, FL (Dr. Diaz).
Background: Computer-assisted fluoroscopic navigation and robotic technologies aim to optimize implant placement and alignment in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) to improve patient outcomes. This study uses a retrospective hospital billing database covering 1,300 hospitals to compare the clinical and economic effect of these technologies.
Methods: The study compared patients undergoing THA with robotic versus computer-assisted fluoroscopic navigation technologies between January 1, 2016, and September 30, 2021, using the Premier Healthcare Database.
