Dual-Polymer Carboxymethyl Cellulose and Poly(Ethylene Oxide)-Based Gels for the Prevention of Postsurgical Adhesions.

Postsurgical adhesions are a common complication associated with surgical procedures; they not only impact the patient's well-being but also impose a financial burden due to medical expenses required for reoperative surgeries or adhesiolysis. Adhesions can range from a filmy, fibrinous, or fibrous vascular band to a cohesive attachment, and they can form in diverse anatomical locations such as the peritoneum, pericardium, endometrium, tendons, synovium, and epidural and pleural spaces. Numerous strategies have been explored to minimize the occurrence of postsurgical adhesions.

Background: Complications after male circumcision are numerous and may be presented as an adhesion between the glans penis and the preputial remnants, these adhesions may acquire different forms and troublesome the affected children.
Patients And Methods: This is a retrospective study of 95 consecutive children of presumed glanular-preputial adhesions referred for correction of circumcision. They were assessed and classified as having either an early preputial adhesion or a well-formed skin bridge into 2 groups; group (A) who have a simple adhesion that was resolved through a conservative preputial adhesiolysis while those in the group (B) had a well-formed skin bridge, which deserves surgical correction.

University Eye Clinic Maastricht, Maastricht University Medical Center, P.O. Box 5800, 6202 AZ, Maastricht, The Netherlands.
Introduction: To investigate 5-year outcomes on intraocular pressure (IOP) and safety of micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) in patients with glaucoma.
Methods: Patients with mild to advanced glaucoma who underwent a standardized micropulse TSCPC procedure at the University Eye Clinic Maastricht from November 2016 to February 2019 were included.
Results: A total of 165 eyes were included, with outcomes for 112 eyes available after 5-year follow-up.
Efficiency of new smart instillation technology with negative pressure wound therapy in managing complex chronic and surgical wounds: a case series.
Wounds

Lions Gate Hospital, North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Background: Use of negative pressure wound therapy with instillation and dwell time (NPWTi-d) of a topical wound solution has been limited in some settings due to perceptions of setup complexity. Typically, some guesswork was needed to estimate an adequate volume of solution to instill without causing leaks. A novel smart technology is recently available in certain NPWTi-d systems that automatically estimates and instills a solution volume according to wound dimensions.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the safety and effectiveness of subconjunctival injections of trypsin versus dexamethasone (DEX) for treating fibrin exudates in patients after globe rupture repair.
- A total of 52 patients were treated with either trypsin or DEX, with results indicating that both treatments led to similar levels of exudate absorption, but trypsin had a quicker absorption time and was less irritating for patients.
- Overall, trypsin was found to be a more comfortable treatment option than DEX, with no adverse effects reported and stable intraocular pressure.
