Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of this new HURWA robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) technique to the accuracy of the conventional technique in a sawbone model.
Methods: The HURWA robotic-assisted TKA system was applied in the robotic group. After bone resection, all of these sawbones were scanned by the use of a structured light scanning system. Measurements of bone resections, femoral coronal and sagittal measurements, and tibial coronal and sagittal measurements were recorded.
Results: Compared to the conventional technique, the HURWA robotic-assisted system significantly improved the accuracy of the bone resection levels and angles. In the robotic group, the accuracy of all of the bone resection levels was below 0.6 mm (with standard deviation [SD] below 0.6 mm), and all of the bone resection angles were below 0.6° (with SD below 0.4°).
Conclusion: Our data suggest that this novel HURWA robotic-assisted system can significantly improve the accuracy of bone resection levels and angles.

Osteoarthritis of the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint is frequent but often pain-free or well tolerated with non-surgical treatment. Surgical options are numerous and none seems to have clear evidence of superiority. In addition to well-established procedures, such as scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint arthrodesis, distal scaphoid resection and trapeziectomy, more recent surgical techniques have been reported.

Background: Textbook outcome (TO) has been utilized to assess the quality of surgical care. This study aimed to define TO rates for minimally invasive gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) resections in a bi-institutional cohort.
Methods: Patients with gastric GIST (≤ 5 cm) who underwent laparoscopic or robotic resection (January 2014 to January 2024) were retrospectively identified from two GIST centers.

Objective: To confirm the incidence of subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage after craniotomy, analyze the risk factors for cerebrospinal fluid leakage leading to subcutaneous effusion, summarize the underlying causes of its occurrence and explore the corresponding treatment strategies.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 757 patients who underwent craniotomy at our hospital from January to December 2023. The authors documented the sex, age, surgical characteristics, and history of chronic diseases for all patients, including those who developed subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage.
