The present review encompasses the publications concerning peculiarities of blood supply of palatal tonsils, the frequency and variants of the anomalous structure of internal carotid artery. Analysis of the literature data has shown that the anomalous vascular structure is one of the important risk factors of the development of intra- and postoperative hemorrhage, besides redundant blood supply of the oropharynx, inflammatory changes in the tissue of tonsils and peritonsillar region. Special attention is given to the peculiarities of diagnostics of such conditions. The emphasis is laid on the importance of timely diagnostics of the anomalous structural changes in the main vessels of the neck prior to the surgical intervention on the pharynx. The analysis of the anomalous structure of internal carotid artery is presented.

Purpose: Assessment of tissue perfusion using near-infrared fluorescence (NIR) with indocyanine green (ICG) is gaining popularity, however reliable and objective interpretation remains a challenge. Therefore, this study aimed to establish reference curves for vital tissue perfusion across target tissues using this imaging modality.

Methods: Data from five prospective study cohorts conducted in three Dutch academic medical centres between December 2018 and June 2023 was included.

Background: Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) can be challenging due to the difficulty of establishing a retrohepatic tunnel under laparoscopy. Dissecting the third hepatic hilum before parenchymal transection often leads to significant liver mobilization, tumor compression, and bleeding from the short hepatic veins (SHVs). This study introduces a novel technique utilizing the ventral avascular area of the inferior vena cava (IVC), allowing SHVs to be addressed after parenchymal transection, thereby reducing surgical complexity and improving outcomes in in situ LLR.

Background: Medical resources, especially blood products, were in short supply during the COVID-19. Less intensive therapy with hypomethylating agents/venetoclax (VEN) seems an effective treatment option for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Objectives: To retrospectively analyze the efficacy and safety of VEN combined with azacitidine (AZA) in young adult patients with newly diagnosed (ND) AML.

Heart disease is a category of various conditions that affect the heart, which includes multiple diseases that influence its structure and operation. Such conditions may consist of coronary artery disease, which is characterized by the narrowing or clotting of the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle, with the resulting threat of heart attacks. Heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), heart valve problems, congenital heart defects present at birth, and heart muscle disorders (cardiomyopathies) are other types of heart disease.
