Purpose: To describe the principles of medical navigation systems in head and neck surgery, the possibility of their application and the existing limitations.
Material And Methods: The article presents the generalized experience of image-guidance equipment using in the ENT Department of First Pavlov State Medical University. 298 operations, mostly FESS, were performed from 2013 to 2018 under the control of navigation system. The majority of cases consisted of surgical treatment of chronic sinusitis, tumors of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses; also, navigation control was useful in the case of altered intranasal anatomy after previous surgical treatment or due to chronic polyposis. A case report of frontal sinus inverted papilloma surgical treatment, controlled by an electromagnetic navigation system, is presented.
Results: The use of navigation systems in head and neck surgery can improve surgery accuracy and safety, as well as providing a unique opportunity to learn FESS in real time.

Assessing Theoretical Considerations of Effects Within a Behavioural Obesity Treatment in Women: Implications for Medical Professional Referral.
J Eval Clin Pract
February 2025
California State University Monterey Bay, Seaside, California, USA.
Rationale: Obesity is an increasing medical issue not responding well to behavioural treatments beyond their initial weeks/months.
Aims And Objectives: Before suggesting surgical or pharmacological interventions, medical professionals might consider referrals to cost-effective, community-based behavioural treatments if stronger theoretical/empirical bases were demonstrated. Thus, evaluation of such is warranted.

Surgical treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the Tibia in children: CPAM-LRC consensus and guidelines.
Int J Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Purpose: Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is a rare condition typically manifesting within the first decade of life. The primary objectives of surgical intervention for CPT include achieving long-term bony union of the tibia, preventing or minimizing limb length discrepancies (LLD), avoiding mechanical axis deviations of the tibia and adjacent joints, and preventing refracture. This study aims to conduct a systematic review of current treatment methods for CPT to determine the most effective non-surgical and surgical management strategies for pediatric patients with this condition.
