Background: The transsylvian approach is a versatile treatment method for aneurysms of the anterior circulatory system. Studies have shown that sylvian veins run in various patterns, suggesting the need for dissection between veins to obtain appropriate surgical corridor. In case of inadvertent sylvian vein injury, serious complications such as venous congestion may occur.
Method: We herein describe the "side-to-side anastomosis reconstruction technique" of the resected superficial sylvian vein.
Conclusion: This technique can be effective for the reconstruction of other cortical veins, and indocyanine green videoangiography was effective in determining the indications for venous reconstruction.

Ectopic varices can result from portal vein stenosis following pancreaticoduodenectomy with concomitant portal vein resection reconstruction, and they can cause gastrointestinal bleeding. Although they can sometimes be fatal, various treatments have been reported. This report describes a case in which a percutaneous transhepatic approach was used to simultaneously perform variceal embolization and portal vein stenting in which a favorable outcome was achieved.

Objective: Obesity is a risk factor for joint arthroplasty complications. With this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assessed whether a positive history of bariatric surgery influences postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing various types of joint arthroplasty.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search database such as Scopus, PubMed, Medline Ovid, CNKI, and CENTRAL for studies comparing outcomes between patients undergoing arthroplasty with and without a history of bariatric surgery.

Anatomical variation of the pulmonary vessels poses challenges to thoracoscopic lung resection and may be associated with an increased risk of intraoperative bleeding and damage to pulmonary circulation. Herein, we reported a rare and dangerous variation as the partial anomalous venous drainage of the right upper lobe into the superior vena cava in a patient undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy for management of lung cancer of right upper lobe. The preoperative identification of such variation by 3D computed tomography scan allowed to plan a safe and accurate resection, and to prepare additional strategies for overcome unexpected intraoperative bleeding.

We currently perform noncontrast lymphatic ultrasound, which has a higher resolution and is less invasive than contrast lymphatic ultrasound. This study aimed to clarify the usefulness of screening lymphatic ultrasound (SLUS) to evaluate lymphatic function. A retrospective study was conducted on 22 patients with leg lymphedema.
