Background: Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) use in aortic endovascular interventions, including thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), may have similar benefits to those seen in coronary and peripheral interventions, but limited utilization and outcome data exist.
Methods: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services claims data were used to identify patients undergoing TEVAR and EVAR from 2016 to 2023. Utilization trends were stratified by region, urbanicity, distressed communities index, community versus academic center, Medicare versus dual enrollment status, indication, urgency, and presence of dissection with malperfusion.

Objective: Clinicopathologic illustration of sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma (SNTCS) in a middle-aged man, highlighting the difficulties and challenges encountered during surgical intervention, histopathologic diagnosis, and its overall management.
Methodology: Case report and literature review.
Results: A 40-year-old man having recurrent epistaxis for three months presented with a dark-colored protruding polypoid nasal mass.
Association Between Serum Thyrotropin and Cancer Recurrence in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: A Population-Based Retrospective Cohort Study.

Levothyroxine to suppress thyrotropin (TSH) to <0.5 mIU/L following thyroidectomy in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) may reduce recurrence in higher-risk DTC. However, there is limited evidence to support guideline recommendations to maintain TSH in the low-normal range of 0.

Background: The purpose of this study was to report on 2-year results of vertebral body tethering (VBT), performed under a Food and Drug Administration protocol, to obtain insight into outcomes and complications.
Methods: Forty prospectively enrolled patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) who had a Sanders score of ≤4 or a Risser score of ≤2 underwent VBT for curves between 40° and 70°. Surgical, radiographic, and patient-reported outcomes were reviewed at a minimum 2-year follow-up.
Value of P-wave Parameters in Predicting Outcomes of Repeat Catheter Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation.

Department of Cardiology, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, Glenfield Hospital, Leicester, UK.
Background: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been established as an effective management option for symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). We aimed to explore the role of P-wave parameters in a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in predicting the success of repeat PAF ablation.
Methods: We enrolled consecutive patients who underwent a second AF ablation procedure for PAF in a UK tertiary center after an index ablation conducted between 2018 and 2019 and a repeat ablation up to 2021.
