Background: Following tumor resection, imaging recommendation for the follow-up of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCCA) include frequent chest, abdomen and pelvis computed tomography (CT) imaging. The appropriateness of additional imaging studies is usually derived from their clinical utility. The purpose of this work is to determine the value of chest CT imaging in the follow-up of patients with IHCCA.

Objective: To compare the effects of unilateral thoracic paravertebal block with lidocaine on hemodynamic and the level of consciousness during double lumen endotracheal intubation.
Methods: From June to october 2021, a total of 40 patients American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status Ⅰ-Ⅱ, aged 19-65 years, scheduled for elective thoracic sugeries in Peking University International Hospital block with under general anesthesia requiring orotracheal intubation were recruited and divided into two groups: The double-lumen endobronchial intubation (group C) and double-lumen endobronchial intubation after thoracic paravertebal block with lidocaine (group P). After an intravenous anesthetic induction, the orotracheal double-lumen intubation was performed using a Macintosh direct laryngoscopy, respectively.

Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to evaluate a new design of the Macintosh laryngoscope blade with a groove to support the endotracheal tube during throat pack insertion in otolaryngological surgeries.
- The trial involved 80 patients, comparing the effectiveness of the grooved blade (group G) to the conventional blade (group C) in terms of tube stability, ease of packing, and time taken.
- Results showed that the grooved blade kept the tube centered in 35 patients versus 10 in the conventional group, allowed for easier packing, and reduced the time needed for the throat pack insertion.

Background: Nasotracheal intubation is challenging for anaesthesiologists in faciomaxillary injuries due to the anticipated difficult airways. The effectiveness of a non-channelled McGrath video laryngoscope was compared with a conventional Macintosh laryngoscope during nasotracheal intubation.
Methods: Sixty American Society of Anaesthesiologists I-II patients aged between 18 and 60 years of both sexes undergoing elective faciomaxillary surgeries from September 2019 to February 2020 were prospectively randomised into two groups (Macintosh laryngoscope Group, McGrath video laryngoscope Group) of 30.
