Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) occurs as a part of the natural history of cirrhosis in up to 15% of patients with cirrhosis. In the initial days, PVT was considered a contraindication to liver transplantation, but now with advanced techniques and perioperative management, patients with complex PVT also undergo living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) with a similar outcome. This review provides a comprehensive overview of methods to proceed with liver transplantation when the recipient has PVT.

Background: Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX), a common cause of perioperative anaphylaxis, is frequently used for skin testing in allergy evaluations. Although CHX's maximal nonirritating concentrations are known, the stability of its dilutions for skin testing remains unexplored, particularly when sterile water for injection (SWFI) or normal saline (NS) are used as diluents.
Objective: Our aim was to evaluate the stability and precipitation of CHX when diluted with SWFI or NS for drug allergy skin testing.

Unlabelled: Sleep-disordered breathing is common among patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and might impact their quality of life due to nighttime hypoxemia and awakenings. However, the factors contributing to deterioration in quality of life remain unclear. This study investigated the factors associated with quality of life deterioration in patients with HFpEF and sleep-disordered breathing.

Background: Adductor canal blocks (ACBs) have been associated with reduced pain following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). There is a paucity of evidence regarding whether these early differences impact longer term outcomes. This study aimed to identify whether using ACB in TKA was associated with improvements in both early and late outcomes.

Background: High-grade Isthmic Spondylolisthesis often requires surgical intervention for spinal realignment and decompression. This study describes a modified Bohlman procedure utilizing robotic-assisted navigation and a Globus SI-LOK interbody device.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on three patients who underwent the modified Bohlman procedure for high-grade spondylolisthesis at a single hospital between 2022 and 2023.
