Background: Proximal femoral varus osteotomy (PFVO) is commonly performed to improve femoral head containment and decrease deformity in Legg-Calve-Perthes disease (LCPD). Little is known about how PFVO impacts the quality of life after surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine the longitudinal changes to patient-reported physical, mental, and social health measures after PFVO.

Silent Sinus Syndrome of the Frontal Sinus: A Case Report.

Cureus

December 2024

Otolaryngology, Fairfield General Hospital, Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, GBR.

Silent sinus syndrome is a rare condition that typically affects the maxillary sinus, with only a few reported cases of frontal sinus involvement. Blockage of the sinus ostium leads to persistent hypoventilation, creating negative pressure and eventual sinus collapse. This report describes a previously undocumented case of facial asymmetry due to frontal silent sinus syndrome, following multiple childhood nasal injuries.

Recent Advances in Perioperative Analgesia in Thoracic Surgery: A Narrative Review.

J Clin Med

December 2024

Aberdeen Centre for Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Health (Epidemiology Group), Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, Aberdeen AB24 3UE, UK.

Thoracic surgery is associated with significant postoperative pain, which can hinder recovery and elevate morbidity risks. Traditionally, epidural anesthesia has been the cornerstone for pain management, but its drawbacks including technical challenges, side effects, and complications necessitate exploring alternative methods. This narrative review examined recent advances in perioperative analgesic strategies in thoracic surgery, focusing on regional anesthetic techniques like paravertebral blocks (PVBs), erector spinae plane blocks (ESPBs), intercostal blocks, and serratus anterior blocks.

Large oil-immersed transformers have metal-enclosed shells, making it difficult to visually inspect the internal insulation condition. Visual inspection of internal defects is carried out using a self-developed micro-robot in this work. Carbon trace is the main visual characteristic of internal insulation defects.

Fusion of FDG and FMZ PET Reduces False Positive in Predicting Epileptogenic Zone.

AJNR Am J Neuroradiol

January 2025

From the School of Biomedical Engineering (B.C., H.H., J.L., S.Y., Y.C., J.L.), Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China; Department of Neurosurgery (S.J., J.H., L.C.), and PET Center (W.B.), Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

Background And Purpose: Epilepsy, a globally prevalent neurological disorder, necessitates precise identification of the epileptogenic zone (EZ) for effective surgical management. While the individual utilities of FDG PET and FMZ PET have been demonstrated, their combined efficacy in localizing the epileptogenic zone remains underexplored. We aim to improve the non-invasive prediction of epileptogenic zone (EZ) in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) by combining FDG PET and FMZ PET with statistical feature extraction and machine learning.
