Osteomyelitis (OM) and septic arthritis (SA) are uncommon primary presentations for melioidosis but important secondary foci, often requiring prolonged therapy and multiple surgeries.

Aesthet Surg J Open Forum
September 2024
Background: Asymmetry, a prevalent phenomenon throughout the human body, prompts this retrospective study, in which the authors aim at discerning potential patterns in its manifestation. Building upon our previous investigations in which left-sided chest wall and pelvic bone width surpassed their right-sided counterparts, a hypothesis is formulated suggesting the likelihood of the right breast being narrower and longer compared with the left.
Objectives: Our objective in this study is to investigate the correlation between the left-sidedness phenomenon in the chest wall and breast shape and appearance, with the aim of understanding its potential impact on outcomes in breast aesthetic surgery.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, University Hospital Halle (Saale), Ernst-Grube-Str. 40, 06120, Halle (Saale), Germany.
This article describes the surgical treatment of superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome (SCDS) by isolating the dehiscence using transmastoid two-point canal plugging while preserving the high-frequency vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) of the affected semicircular canal. The superior semicircular canal is opened via a transmastoid approach anterior (as far from the ampulla as possible) and posterior to the dehiscence and then plugged with connective tissue and bone dust. In two clinical exemplary cases, vestibular testing showed that the VOR measured by video head impulse (vHIT) test was preserved (patient 1: gain preoperative 0.
