The treatment for obturator bypass graft infection has been rarely reported and is a surgical challenge because it is difficult to debride infected tissue around the graft located in the deep route and to ensure an alternative revascularization route in patients with a history of inguinal infection. Percutaneous continuous irrigation and drainage is an effective and less invasive definitive therapy for obturator bypass graft infection.

Management of Radix Entomolaris of Mandibular First Molar With Complex Root Canal Curvatures: A Case Report and Mini Review.
Clin Case Rep
January 2025
Student Research Committee, School of Dentistry, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences Mashhad Iran.
Radix entomolaris (RE) characterized by an extra root in mandibular molars is a rare phenotype. When this condition coincides with complex root canal curvatures or S-shaped canals, root canal therapy (RCT) challenges arise. The present study presents three cases of RE along with complex root curvatures.

Article Synopsis
- Managing limb ischemia in cancer patients with complex histories of surgery and radiation is difficult due to complications like radiation arteritis and extensive tissue scarring.
- A 68-year-old male with a history of liposarcoma developed severe limb ischemia, and traditional endovascular treatment failed, leading to a bypass surgery from the axillary to the popliteal artery.
- Post-surgery, the patient had reduced pain and regained some mobility, but continued rehabilitation was needed due to persistent foot drop.
Routine External Iliac Artery Cannulation in Robotic Cardiac Surgery: Role of the Corona "Vitae" in Distal Limb Perfusion.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, University of Chicago, IL, USA.
Objective: Femoral artery cannulation is the most commonly used approach for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in robotic cardiac procedures. However, without adding a distal perfusion cannula, leg ischemia can occur in up to 11.5% of patients.

Background: A rather common side effect of using prosthetic grafts is infection of the groin area. Infections in the groin may be avoided by performing arterial bypass tenneling via the obturator foramen during lower extremity revascularization. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of extra-anatomical bypass obturator in patients with groin infection.

This case report presents the management of a 69-year-old man with an extensive history of peripheral vascular disease including 2 previous failed right femoral to distal bypasses and a left above-the-knee amputation who presented with right lower extremity rest pain and non-healing shin ulcers. A redo bypass was performed for limb salvage via the obturator foramen to avoid his extensively scarred femoral region. The postoperative course was uneventful and the bypass remained patent in the early period.
