Objective: The aim of this study was to examine if tranexamic acid (TXA) can assist in improving outcomes of arthroscopic rotator cu! repair (RCR).
Methods: The databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL, and Scopus were searched for all types of studies examining the e"cacy of TXA for arthroscopic RCR. Twelve studies, 10 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and 2 retrospective studies were considered eligible.

In this manuscript, I comment on the article by Pospisilova published in the recent issue of the journal, in which selective embolization was used to treat anorectal hemangioma, a rare disease causing lower gastrointestinal bleeding. Anorectal hemangioma can easily be mistaken; for example, the patient in this case was previously misdiagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Choosing the appropriate tests and understanding the typical manifestations of anorectal hemangioma under colonoscopy, computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and other tests are beneficial for diagnosis.

Background: Tranexamic acid (TXA) use has become the gold standard in total joint arthroplasty to limit intraoperative blood loss and transfusion rates. More recently, the indications for TXA have expanded to knee and shoulder arthroscopy with promising early results. However, the effectiveness of TXA during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) is unclear.

Purpose: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) commonly results in significant postoperative pain. Adjuncts like dexamethasone (DEX) and tranexamic acid (TXA) are used to enhance postoperative recovery. This study aimed to determine whether the combined application of TXA and DEX could improve postoperative recovery during the first 24 hours in ARCR patients.

Purpose: Vertebral body tethering (VBT) is a non-fusion surgical option for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) that requires a postoperative (PO) chest tube. This study evaluates whether 48 h of PO TXA reduces chest tube (CT) drainage and retention compared to 24 h of TXA following VBT for AIS.
Methods: Consecutively treated patients with a diagnosis of AIS who underwent VBT were assessed.
