Endoleak is a major complication of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Type IIIb endoleaks, which are caused by endograft fabric disruption, are relatively rare. Although relining of the previously placed endograft with another main endograft is considered an ideal approach, it is sometimes difficult. The efficacy of parallel placement of Excluder legs has been reported in various settings. Here, we report the successful treatment of a type IIIb endoleak with parallel placement of Excluder legs during EVAR by using an AFX2 device.

Finite model analysis of different anchorage sites for bone-supported facemask application in unilateral cleft lip and palate.

Introduction: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the miniplate application sites in the maxilla and the applied force vector changes during skeletally supported facemask application in adolescent patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) using finite element model (FEM) analysis.
Methods: A FEM was obtained from a cone-beam computed tomography image of a 12-year-old female patient with UCLP. Miniplates were placed on 3 different sites of the maxilla; 500 g of advancement force was applied bilaterally, parallel (0°), and downward (-30°) to the occlusal plane.
Transcorneal Vitrectomy in Eyes with Regressed Retinoblastoma.

Roski Eye Institute, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Purpose: Current treatments for retinoblastoma facilitate globe salvage but can result in vitreoretinal disorders that may require surgery. There is controversy on surgical approaches in eyes with retinoblastoma. Here we describe a transcorneal vitrectomy approach that avoids the use of chemotherapy or cryotherapy.

Approximately 90% of athletes return to play after Latarjet, comparable to arthroscopic Bankart repair. Patients may be physically unable to return to play, which may be due to persistent pain, apprehension, or weakness.

Tissue engineering offers immense potential for addressing the unmet needs in repairing tissue damage and organ failure. Vascularization, the development of intricate blood vessel networks, is crucial for the survival and functions of engineered tissues. Nevertheless, the persistent challenge of ensuring an ample nutrient supply within implanted tissues remains, primarily due to the inadequate formation of blood vessels.

Background: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a crucial role in monitoring disease progression and evaluating the effectiveness of treatment interventions. Cardiac MRI allows medical practitioners to assess cardiac function accurately by providing comprehensive and quantitative information about the structure and function, hence making it an indispensable tool for monitoring the disease and treatment response. Deep learning-based segmentation enables the precise delineation of cardiac structures including the myocardium, right ventricle, and left ventricle.
