Background: Postoperative hemorrhage is one of the life-threatening complications of oral cancer surgery. The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors in a large cohort.
Patients And Methods: Patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma who had received surgery were enrolled. The variables between patients with and without postoperative hemorrhage were compared using univariate and multivariate models.
Results: Of the 1513 patients (or 1581 cases) enrolled in the study, 34 patients suffered from postoperative hemorrhage. In the univariate analysis, cigarette, and alcohol consumption, floor of mouth tumors, T4 classified tumors, flap reconstruction, surgical site infection, and flap necrosis were risk factors for postoperative hemorrhage. In the multivariate model, flap necrosis and surgical site infection were independent risk factors for postoperative hemorrhage.
Conclusions: The patients with surgical site infection or flap necrosis should be closely monitored in order to avoid postoperative hemorrhage.

Background: Surgery for tumors in the cerebellopontine angle is always a significant challenge due to the densely packed neurovascular structures, the narrow deep location, and the complex relationship between the lesions and surrounding neurovascular structures. Recently, great attention has been given to the neuroendoscope for its exclusive advantages, which have added a new dimension to many classical microscopic surgeries. However, the feasibility and advisability of fully endoscopic neurosurgery for cerebellopontine angle tumors remain to be further evaluated.

Background: Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare vascular disorder, and cases of bronchial pseudoaneurysms reported after lung surgery are even rarer. The number of reported cases is very limited due to the unclear pathogenesis, lack of diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines, and nonspecific clinical manifestations.
Case Presentation: The paper reports a case of a patient with primary lung adenocarcinoma who developed hemoptysis, chest and back pain, and right hemothorax after lobectomy.

Since contact laser vaporization of the prostate (CVP) was approved by the Japanese insurance system in 2016, the use of a 980 nm diode laser system for CVP has become widespread for treating benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) patients. Our institute has been implementing CVP for BPH since 2018, treating a total of 93 patients, including 28 with a risk of hemorrhage. This study examines the safety and efficacy of CVP treatment for BPH patients with a hemorrhagic risk.
