Postoperative hypoparathyroidism is a thyroidectomy complication. The effect of this complication cannot be accurately quantified. The incidence of hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy has high variability in the literature, between 7 and 37%. Data from 78 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with Tissue Dissection with Solution Injection (TDSI group) from December 2018 to August 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. These patients were compared with 78 patients to whom the technique was not applied (non-TDSI group), and they were treated from January 2018 to September 2018. All thyroidectomies were performed by the same surgeon. The mean duration of a thyroidectomy was 1 hour. The reduction of the incidence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism in the group of patients was applied in respect of the technique of tissue dissection with saline injection. TDSI technique paves the way for further application to other tissues and surgeries.

Morphometric and Morphological Study of Thoracic and Lumbar Intervertebral Discs in Guinea Pigs (Cavia porcellus).

This study investigates the gross morphological and morphometric characteristics of thoracic and lumbar intervertebral discs (IVDs) in guinea pigs, utilising micro-CT imaging and anatomical dissection. The findings reveal 13 thoracic and six lumbar IVDs were identified, with thoracic discs transitioning from rounded forms at T1-T3 to triangular and heart-shaped structures at T4-T13, while lumbar IVDs exhibited a consistently flattened heart shape. Morphometric analysis revealed statistically significant differences, with lumbar IVDs being larger in lateral and dorsoventral width, disc area, annulus fibrosus (AF) area and nucleus pulposus (NP) area, and ventral height compared to thoracic discs.

The plantaris tendon may be absent in some individuals, indicating its unclear function. Anatomically, the plantaris tendon originates from the lateral femoral condyle and has a variable course and insertion point at the calcaneal tuberosity. The plantaris tendon may influence conditions such as Achilles tendinopathy, particularly in its midportion, whether by its close relation to the calcaneal tendon or adhesions between both tendons.

Complete circumferential aortic dissection with bidirectional intimo-intimal intussusception is a rare occurrence in Stanford type A dissections. The antegrade dissection flap can obstruct the left ventricular outflow tract and coronary sinuses, whereas the retrograde flap can obstruct the aortic arch and branch vessels. Sequelae include aortic regurgitation, myocardial ischemia, and neurologic complications.

Background: A strategy combining tear-oriented initial surgical procedure and subsequent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) can be adopted for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). This study investigated this strategy's outcomes and the role of the aortic hiatus (AH).
Methods: Overall, 192 consecutive patients with ATAAD who underwent initial surgery between 2012 and 2021 were assessed in this observational retrospective study.
Optimal Timing of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Late Remodeling in Acute Type B Dissection.

Background: To determine the optimal timing of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for acute type B aortic dissection (TBAD), we investigated the relationship between the timing of TEVAR after onset and late aortic remodeling.
Methods: Between March 2015 and August 2020, 48 patients with TBAD (39 men [81.2%]; aged 61.
