Miller School of Medicine Desai Sethi Urology Institute, University of Miami Miami FL USA.
Objectives: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of "en-bloc" Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) with trainee involvement in patients with prostates larger than 200 cc.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing HoLEP using the "en-bloc" technique for prostate sizes > 200 cc between July-2017 and December-2023 at an academic teaching hospital. Perioperative data was collected, including patient demographics, clinical parameters, operative details and functional outcomes.

Section of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Chicago Medicine, Chicago, Illinois.
Background: Free flap reconstruction in the setting of lower extremity trauma continues to be a challenging clinical problem fraught with a high risk of complications including flap compromise. Although studies have described certain risk factors that predispose these patients to poor outcomes, there remains a paucity of literature detailing frailty as a risk factor. As such, the aim of our study was to examine the application of the 5-item modified frailty index (mFI-5) in trauma patients undergoing lower extremity free flap reconstruction.

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Busan Paik Hospital, University of Inje College of Medicine, Busan, Republic of Korea.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a simple machine-learning model incorporating lymph node metastasis status with F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) and clinical information for predicting regional lymph node metastasis in patients with colon cancer.
Methods: This retrospective study included 193 patients diagnosed with colon cancer between January 2014 and December 2017. All patients underwent F-18 FDG PET/CT and blood test before surgery.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY, USA.
Background: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) demonstrates favorable long-term data and has outpaced anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty as the most-performed shoulder arthroplasty procedure. As indications and outcomes continue to favor rTSA, patients may turn to the internet as an efficient modality to answer various questions or concerns. This study investigates online patient questions pertaining to rTSA and the quality of the websites providing information.
