Vascular clamps are often used during microvascular repair and anastomosis. However, pressure exerted by the clamps may damage the vessels, which compromises patency of vessels. This article reports on a microsurgical suture technique performed without any clamp to avoid clamp-related problems.

Background: Endodontic file fractures are common complications of root canal treatment, and requires removal via specialized techniques such as endodontic microsurgery when the file beyond the apical foramen. It is often challenging to precisely and minimally remove a fractured file. Recently the use of dental autonomous robotic system (ATR) has shown promise in precisely and minimally in dental surgery.

Background And Objectives: The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is a breakthrough in brain aneurysm treatment, widely used for intracranial wide neck and complex aneurysms, especially at bifurcations. Although effective, aneurysm recurrence can occur post-treatment and the impact of clipping angle on the WEB mesh remains unclear. In this study, using a human placenta-based ex-vivo aneurysm model, we simulated the application of aneurysm clipping on WEB-treated aneurysms to elucidate the technical aspects and nuances, particularly the influence of the angle of clip application on WEB collapse.

Pathological scars, including hypertrophic scar and keloid are the result of excessive tissue repair and are influenced by biomechanical forces like tension, mechanical pressure, and stiffness. These forces significantly impact scar development and progression, affecting wound healing, collagen deposition, and tissue remodeling. Understanding how these mechanical stimuli contribute to scar development is essential for devising effective therapeutic interventions.

Substantial nerve lesions almost always lead to persistent functional deficits, even with ideal treatment. Nerve lesions commonly occur in young patients, are often part of complex injuries, and are repeatedly diagnosed and treated with delay. Functional outcome crucially depends on early and adequate treatment.

Introduction: Individuals choose to undergo vasectomy reversal for a variety of reasons, including remarriage or due to the death of a child. To be proficient in this procedure, the surgeons need to be high volume and the trainees require a safe environment to develop their microsurgical skills. To overcome this challenge, we used three-dimensional (3D) printing to create a synthetic model of the vas deferens with properties similar to the human vas deferens.
