Wound healing is a complex biological process critical for maintaining an organism's structural integrity and tissue repair following an infection or injury. Recent studies have unveiled the mechanisms involving the coordination of biochemical and mechanical responses in the tissue in wound healing. In this article, we focus on the healing property of an epithelial tissue as a material while the effects of biological mechanisms such as cell proliferation, tissue intercalation, cellular migration, cell crawling, and filopodia protrusion is minimal.

Article Synopsis
  • A 3-year-old male standard poodle mix was presented with severe health issues including vomiting, difficulty breathing, and lethargy, which led to a diagnosis of a peritoneal pericardial diaphragmatic hernia (PPDH) involving the liver and gallbladder.
  • Emergency surgery revealed serious complications including a necrosed liver lobe, gallbladder issues, and suspected right ventricular aneurysms, which were treated during the operation.
  • Post-surgery, the dog experienced ventricular arrhythmia but was successfully managed and discharged after 4 days, showing good recovery after 12 months; this case highlights the rarity and risks associated with right ventricular aneurysms in dogs.

After failed conservative therapy or in the absence of any intervention, a rupture of the digital subcutaneous extensor tendon at the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint, known as mallet finger, may lead to a chronic extension deficit due to excessive scarring and tendon elongation. Various surgical techniques to restore the extension of the distal phalanx have been proposed, but an optimal approach has not yet been established. To tighten the extensor tendon, a purse-string suture can be applied.

Although cornual pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy, the associated mortality rate is considerably higher than that of ectopic pregnancy overall. Historically, cornual ectopic pregnancy has been treated via laparotomy. With advancements in technology, equipment, and technique, laparoscopy offers a safer approach for the management of cornual pregnancy.
