PET/CT for perforator identification in deep inferior epigastric perforator flap harvest.
Am J Otolaryngol
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA; Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA. Electronic address:
Background: CT angiography (CTA) is used for preoperative localization in deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps, but is an additional costly study that involves contrast and radiation exposure. Many patients with head and neck cancer already undergo PET/CT. We investigated if PET/CT could be used to preoperatively localize perforators and if this corresponded with the intraoperative location.

December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Bilkent City Hospital, Ankara, Turkey.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare retinal and optic disc functions as well as vascular structures in dominant eyes (DE) and non-dominant eyes (NDE) among healthy adults using pattern electroretinogram (PERG), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) tests.
Methods: Seventy-two eyes of 36 healthy subjects with bilateral visual acuity of 1.0 were included.
Background: Dyspnoea is one of the emergency department's (ED) most common and deadly chief complaints, but frequently misdiagnosed and mistreated. We aimed to design a diagnostic decision support which classifies dyspnoeic ED visits into acute heart failure (AHF), exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (eCOPD), pneumonia and "other diagnoses" by using deep learning and complete, unselected data from an entire regional health care system.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we included all dyspnoeic ED visits of patients ≥ 18 years of age at the two EDs in the region of Halland, Sweden, 07/01/2017-12/31/2019.
Sustainability in Reconstructive Breast Surgery: An Eco-audit of the Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Pathway.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
December 2024
From the Division of Surgery and Interventional Science, University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap provides an effective and popular means for autologous breast reconstruction. However, with the complexity of the pathway, the environmental impact of the pathway has yet to be evaluated.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 42 unilateral DIEPs at a single reconstructive center was performed.
The Enigma of Retroperitoneal Fibrosis: Clinical Implications and Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenges.

Department of Internal Medicine/Rheumatology, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Paul L. Foster School of Medicine, El Paso, USA.
Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare disease with a nonspecific presentation. RPF can be classified into Idiopathic, the most common, or secondary due to malignancy and various medications resulting in chronic inflammation and fibrosis in the retroperitoneum. The complications arise due to the compression of structures in the retroperitoneum.
