Background: Endoscopic resection of giant gastric leiomyomas, particularly in the fundus and cardia regions, is infrequently documented and presents a significant challenge for endoscopic surgery.
Case Summary: Herein, a case of a 59-year-old woman with a giant gastric leiomyoma was reported. The patient presented to the department of hepatological surgery with a complaint of right upper abdominal pain for one month and worsening for one week.

This study aimed to compare ocular torsion measurements to investigate normative objective cyclotorsion values in a population of healthy, full-term and preterm children. The participants enrolled in this study had an age range of 3-12 years and were divided into two groups, full-term (gestational age (GA) > 37 weeks) and preterm without retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) (GA ≤ 37 weeks). The disc-center-fovea angle (DFA) was used to evaluate ocular torsion using two different imaging modalities: optical coherence tomography (OCT) with a 55-degree field of view (FV) and conventional fundus photography (CFP) with a 45-degree FV.

Endoscopic techniques have been widely used in orthopedic surgery, such as arthroscopy and transforaminal endoscopy, but the application in fracture is rarely reported. We reported a case of a 69-year-old male with pelvic fracture (AO/OTA type B2.1) who underwent successful laparoscopy-assisted pubic ramus plate fixation without auxiliary incision.

Introduction: Ectopic parathyroid adenomas represent an important cause of refractory hyperparathyroidism. While most ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenomas can be accessed through a transcervical approach, this is not always feasible, posing a significant challenge.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 60-year-old female patient who presented with symptomatic hyperparathyroidism.

The management of municipal wastewater sludge is a significant challenge for wastewater management, particularly the need to manage and dispose of the sludge in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. The emergence of stricter regulations regarding landfill disposal of wastewater sludge necessitates the need for alternative options for municipal wastewater sludge management, with thermochemical technologies potentially contributing towards achieving carbon neutrality goals and fostering sustainable development. This study sought to address these challenges through a technical and financial evaluation of a pilot-scale emerging thermochemical technology, the enhanced hydrothermal polymerization to provide adequate understanding of the technology's feasibility regarding its application for municipal wastewater sludge volarization into a multi-use hydrochar.
