Lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA) is the first-line surgical treatment for lymphedema. The therapeutic effects of LVA, including edema reduction and cellulitis prevention, vary among patients. We examined cases of palliative LVA in patients with lymphedema who were in the terminal stage due to recurrence or distant metastasis of the primary disease, with a focus on the course and usefulness of palliative LVA.

Conventional treatments, such as insulin therapy and lifestyle modifications, have shown limited efficacy in addressing the multifactorial nature of DM. Emerging evidence suggests that gut microbiota, a diverse community of microorganisms critical for metabolism and immune function, plays a pivotal role in metabolic health.

Cardiology, a high-acuity medical specialty, has traditionally emphasised technical expertise, often overshadowing the critical role of non-technical skills (NTS). This imbalance stems from the historical focus on procedural competence and clinical knowledge in cardiology training and practice, leaving a significant gap in the development of crucial interpersonal and cognitive abilities. However, emerging evidence highlights the significant impact of NTS on patient outcomes, team dynamics, and overall healthcare efficiency.
