Objective: To determine whether folded-flap palatoplasty (FFP) results in improved respiratory outcomes compared to standard staphylectomy (SS).

Methods: English Bulldogs were randomized to receive FFP or SS in a parallel, equal-allocation, prospective study design at a single institution. Exercise-tolerance testing (ETT), arterial blood gas, head CT, and an owner survey were completed preoperatively and at recheck (approx 30 days postoperatively).

Objective: Timely and complete surgical wound healing substantially affects the patient's performance and satisfaction with surgery outcomes. Sutures and staples are two common wound closure methods in total knee arthroplasty; however, their role in reducing the rate of surgical wound infections and dehiscence in diabetic patients is unclear. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the rate of infection and post-closure dehiscence in wounds closed with either nylon sutures or skin staples in diabetic patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a very effective method in the treatment of dehiscent, infected, and non-healing wounds. Difficult wound healing occurs especially in late pregnancy due to the rapid enlargement of the uterus and the constantly increasing tension of the entire abdominal wall. In cases of dehiscence of the surgical wound during pregnancy, proper subsequent treatment is needed, where it is necessary to consider the safety of the mother as well as the fetus.
