As deafness surgery is subject to the two imperatives of safety and reduction of bleeding, local anaesthesia constitutes a very satisfactory solution. The concomitant administration of Midazolam and Buprenorphine relaxes the patient and ensures analgesia and anterograde amnesia, allowing the surgeon to operate under excellent conditions. Over the last 6 months, except in one subject under the age of 16 years and one psychologically very fragile patient, all surgical operations for deafness, regardless of their importance, have been performed under local anaesthesia improved by means of diazanalgesia. It is probable that in the future, numerous cophosurgeons will adopt a similar protocol.

Background: Orthopaedic procedures often cause intense postoperative pain, posing challenges for effective management. Brachial plexus blocks offer relief but optimising analgesia with minimal local anaesthetic is still challenging. Perineural dexamethasone, with anti-inflammatory effects, shows promise in lower doses but lacks sufficient research.

Introduction: Transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB) is a common urological procedure, typically performed in an inpatient setting. This study aims to investigate safety, quality, and patient satisfaction aspects of TURB in an outpatient setting, reflecting the emerging strategy of outpatientization of surgical procedures in the German healthcare system.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 100 patients who underwent outpatient TURB.

Unlabelled: Earlobe clefts have been the major concern for aesthetic repair in the present situation. The advent of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for enhancement of healing has never been treated for cleft earlobe repair. This study aims to compare and evaluate the efficacy of wound healing with and without platelet-rich plasma injection in bilateral earlobe cleft lobe repair.

Objectives: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols for endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) have not been widely implemented, and a critical review of ERAS recommendations and a comprehensive analysis of the supporting literature has not been undertaken. We describe an ESS ERAS protocol including key perioperative interventions for patients undergoing ESS and assess the available evidence.

Data Sources: A search was conducted of all relevant ERAS literature in otorhinolaryngology, anesthesia, and surgery using Medline (via PubMed), and Scopus.
