Three-dimensional TEE, zoomed volume acquisition, oriented to the surgeon's view of the mitral valve. The left atrial erspective demonstrates a flail A3 segment with a ruptured posteromedial papillary muscle (). Three-dimensional color Doppler demonstrates severe MR. Three-dimensional transillumination; left atrial () and LV () perspective demonstrated. This technique was used to highlight the blood pool-tissue interface. The degree of transparency was adjusted to maximize the border definition between the ruptured posteromedial papillary muscle and blood pool and more clearly demonstrate the ruptured posteromedial papillary muscle ().

Background: An all-inside endoscopic flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer is indicated for the treatment of chronic, full-thickness Achilles tendon defects. The aim of this procedure is to restore function of the gastrocnemius-soleus complex while avoiding the wound complications associated with open procedures.
Description: This procedure can be performed through 2 endoscopic portals, a posteromedial portal (the working portal) and a posterolateral portal (the visualization portal).
Purpose: Ruptures of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are often accompanied by posterolateral corner (PLC) and posteromedial corner (PMC) injuries. This study investigates the incidence and impact of PMC and PLC injuries on posterior tibial translation (PTT). It was hypothesized that PMC injuries are more common and impactful than previously reported.

Objective: To summarize the characteristics of posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments and its research progress in treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fracture with cephalomedullary nail, provide valuable reference for clinical practice.
Methods: Relevant domestic and foreign literature was extensively reviewed to summarize the history, anatomical structure of posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments, and the need for reduction and fixation, the influence on the stability of cephalomedullary nail, and the remedies.
Results: The posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments refers to the second level fracture line of the intertrochanteric femoral fracture, involving four anatomical structures, namely, the posterior part of the greater trochanter, the intertrochanteric crest, the lesser trochanter, and the posteromedial cortex.

Alpine skiing is a high-risk sport due to the possibility of severe injuries, particularly complex knee injuries. The most common injuries are ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), meniscal tears and fractures of the lower limbs. Managing these injuries requires ligament reconstructions and specific surgical interventions to optimize rehabilitation and ensure a return to competition.
