Objective: The complex changes in vascular surgical teaching and commonalities are to be outlined and discussed, in particular, similarities/differences to general surgery, specifics of teaching/teaching content and its university requirements.

Method: Compact narrative overview RESULTS: Vascular surgical teaching component at Magdeburg University Hospital comprises 10 academic teaching hours and includes the following topics: PAD, embolism/thrombosis, vascular injury, compartment syndrome, mesenteric ischemia, aortic aneurysm and venous surgery. This puts vascularsurgical teaching here well above the average of 6.1 academic teaching hours in Germany. The strength of (vascular)surgical training lies in the fact that the knowledge gained at the bedside can be linked to visual impressions and simultaneous explanations in the operating theatre. Close integration of the student into the team is the high art of promoting acceptance of surgery as a profession and vocation. The prerequisites for successful teaching are a didactically competent teacher with specialist expertise, a proactive teaching attitude, knowledge of the specific learning objectives, the curriculum, modern teaching methods and awareness of the special role model function for students. Classical teaching by means of lecture, seminar, practical course and textbook is justified and should be strengthened but it is increasingly supplemented by the use of internet-based learning platforms, libraries and video portals.

Conclusion: In the coming years, vascular surgical teaching will (have to) shift to a (rather) multimodal/-media approach with more practice-oriented components and intensive integration of students into everyday clinical practice.

Purpose: This brief report aims to summarize and discuss the methodologies of eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) and their potential applications in surgery.

Methods: We briefly introduce explainability methods, including global and individual explanatory features, methods for imaging data and time series, as well as similarity classification, and unraveled rules and laws.

Results: Given the increasing interest in artificial intelligence within the surgical field, we emphasize the critical importance of transparency and interpretability in the outputs of applied models.

Introduction: The anterior division of the internal iliac artery (ADIIA) is a crucial vascular structure that supplies blood to the pelvic organs, perineum, and gluteal region. The present study demonstrates practical data concerning the anatomy of the ADIIA and its branches. It is hoped that the results of the current study may aid in localizing the pelvic arteries effectively.

Purpose: To describe a case of short common trunk of the occipital artery (OA) and ascending pharyngeal artery (APA) arising from the internal carotid artery (ICA).

Methods: A 36-year-old woman with a history of surgical resection of a right lateral ventricular meningioma and atheromatous plaque of the right ICA underwent cranial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR angiography of the head and neck region with a 3-Tesla scanner.

Results: MR angiography of the neck region showed a small atheromatous plaque at the origin of the right ICA and an anomalous artery arising from the posteromedial aspect of the right ICA at the distal end of the carotid bulb.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the demographics and to evaluate long-term outcomes of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) in surgically treated patients ≤40 years in China.

Methods: This study included patients aged ≤40 with ATAAD who underwent surgical treatment at our institution between 2015 and 2019. The patients were categorized into groups according to heritable thoracic aortic disease (HTAD) presence or absence.
