A 45-year-old woman who had been operated for blow-out fracture, presented with a complaint of cosmetic concerns about her appearance. Orthoptic evaluation was notable for a left 35(∆) exotropia and 25(∆) hypertropia in primary position. Magnetic resonance imaging and the surgical exploration revealed a longitudinally transected left inferior rectus muscle. Transposition procedures which were carried out for left inferior and superior recti provided a good cosmetic result and satisfactory ocular alignment.

Compact Arterial Monitoring Device Use in Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA): A Simple Validation Study in Swine.

Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.
A New Approach to Ultra-Low Anterior Resection-Intersphincteric Dissection With Total Hiatal Ligament Excision for Very Low Rectal Cancer Located in the Posterior Wall of the Rectum: A More Satisfactory Technique for Local Recurrence Control.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of tumor location in ultra-low rectal cancer on patient survival and how total hiatal ligament excision (THLE) affects outcomes for those with posterior rectal cancer.
- Results show that circumferential tumor location (CTL) does not influence overall survival or disease-free survival, but THLE significantly reduces local recurrence compared to traditional transection.
- Key risk factors for local recurrence-free survival include circumferential resection margin (CRM), TNM stage III, and traditional hiatal ligament transection (HLTT).
Minimally invasive reconstruction of extensive mid-lower ureteral strictures using a bilateral Boari flap.

July 2024
Department of Urology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
Objective: To describe and evaluate the technique using bilateral Boari flap ureteroneocystostomy (BBFUNC) for bilateral mid-lower ureteral strictures.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed five patients who underwent minimally invasive BBFUNC in our institution (Union Hospital, Wuhan, China) between July 2019 and December 2021. The bilateral ureters were mobilized and transected above the stenotic segments.
Talocalcaneal Coalition Resection with Local Fat Grafting and Flatfoot Reconstruction.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Montefiore-Einstein, Bronx, New York.
Background: Talocalcaneal (TC) coalitions typically present in the pediatric population with medial hindfoot and/or ankle pain and absent subtalar range of motion. Coalition resection with fat interposition is well described for isolated tarsal coalitions; however, patients with concomitant rigid flatfoot may benefit from additional reconstructive procedures. To address this, we employ the surgical technique of TC resection with local fat grafting and flatfoot reconstruction.

Article Synopsis
- * By testing ten pairs of human cadaveric feet, researchers found that while both arches affect the collapse of the longitudinal arch and forefoot abduction, the MLA has a stronger influence compared to the TTA.
- * The results highlight that although weakness in the TTA significantly impacts certain aspects of PCFD, it doesn't surpass the influence of the MLA, which may inform better treatment approaches for flatfoot conditions.
