Published: August 2021

Open segmental tibial fractures are difficult injuries fraught with potential for complications. Delays or missteps in treatment and soft tissue coverage can lead to disastrous outcomes. This article and the accompanying video demonstrate an example of a timely, team-based approach for management of an open segmental tibial shaft fracture with complex osseous fixation and soft tissue reconstruction.

The current work introduces the hybrid ensemble framework for the detection and segmentation of colorectal cancer. This framework will incorporate both supervised classification and unsupervised clustering methods to present more understandable and accurate diagnostic results. The method entails several steps with CNN models: ADa-22 and AD-22, transformer networks, and an SVM classifier, all inbuilt.

Introduction: This study aimed to assess the precision of an open-source, clinician-trained, and user-friendly convolutional neural network-based model for automatically segmenting the mandible.

Methods: A total of 55 cone-beam computed tomography scans that met the inclusion criteria were collected and divided into test and training groups. The MONAI (Medical Open Network for Artificial Intelligence) Label active learning tool extension was used to train the automatic model.

Background And Purpose: We explored the impact of various craniotomy approaches on the outcomes and long-term cognitive function of microsurgical clipping for superiorly projecting anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 127 superiorly projected ACoA aneurysms underwent microsurgical clipping between January 2014 and January 2022. Patients were categorized into two types: type 1 (70 patients), characterized by the posterior positioning of the ipsilateral A2 segment (open A2 plane side), and type 2 (57 patients), characterized by the anterior positioning of the ipsilateral A2 segment (closed A2 plane side).

: Resection of the caudate lobe of the liver is considered a highly challenging surgical procedure due to the deep anatomic location of this segment and the relationships with major vessels. There is no clear evidence about the safety and effectiveness of robotic resection of the caudate lobe. The aim of this systematic review was to report data about the safety, technical feasibility, and postoperative outcomes of robotic caudate lobectomy.

Purpose: To investigate the factors that prolonged the operative duration (OD) in patients who underwent single-stage locked intramedullary nailing of their multiple concurrent long-bone fractures (LBFs) using Surgical Implant Generation Network (SIGN) nails.

Methods: Forty-nine patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were enrolled prospectively over 8½ years. Data collected included age, sex, injury mechanism and severity, fracture characteristics, nail types and diameter, OD, fracture-to-fixation time, length of hospital stay (LOS), functional outcomes and complications.
