Rehabilitation of patients suffering from consequences of burn injury is actual problem in plastic surgery. There is no unified strategy defining optimal terms and stages of treatment, possibility and advisability of simultaneous interventions on different anatomical areas, combination of surgical and conservative treatment while it is necessary for decrease of rehabilitation terms in victims. On basis of twelve-year experience of 1246 patients with consequences of burn injury the authors developed universal algorithm for optimization of surgical treatment, improvement of results and reduction of treatment time.

Pelvic masses in women can originate from both gynecological and non-gynecological sources, necessitating careful evaluation to ensure appropriate treatment. Gynecological masses can range from functional ovarian cysts and tubo-ovarian abscesses to malignant and benign tumors. This case report presents a mucinous borderline ovarian tumor (BOT), a rare type of ovarian neoplasm.

Burn injuries in patients with significant pre-existing medical conditions provide unique challenges in both medical management and surgical planning. Spasticity, if left untreated, can be one of the most disabling consequences of a neurologic injury. Treatment is largely dependent on pharmacologic management with anti-spasmodic agents such as baclofen.

Lymphedema, a severe and complex inflammatory disease caused by lymphatic system insufficiency and impeded lymphatic drainage that causes an enormous physical and psychological burden on patients and may even lead to death, has long been a challenging issue in the medical field. Clinically, conventional approaches including surgical treatment and conservative treatment have been employed for lymphedema therapy, but their curative effect is still unsatisfactory because of high operational difficulty, high cost, and long-term reliance. In this study, a novel kind of piezoelectric microneedle driven by ultrasound (US) is proposed to regulate macrophage polarization and remodel the pathological inflammatory microenvironment in a noninvasive manner, thereby promoting lymphatic regeneration and improving lymphedema.

Background: Primary blast lung injury is a common and severe consequence of explosion events, characterized by immediate and delayed effects such as apnea and rapid shallow breathing. The overpressure generated by blasts leads to alveolar and capillary damage, resulting in ventilation-perfusion mismatch and increased intrapulmonary shunting. This reduces the effective gas exchange area, causing hypoxemia and hypercapnia.

Conventionally, the size, shape, and biomechanics of cartilages are determined by their voluminous extracellular matrix. By contrast, we found that multiple murine cartilages consist of lipid-filled cells called lipochondrocytes. Despite resembling adipocytes, lipochondrocytes were molecularly distinct and produced lipids exclusively through de novo lipogenesis.
