Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is a congenital developmental disorder characterized by congenital sensorineural hearing loss and pigmentary deficiencies in the iris, hair, and skin. Ocular associations of WS include choroidal and iris hypopigmentation and foveal hypoplasia. Possible associations include cataracts and retinal vein occlusion. We report the first case of neurotrophic cornea and relate our experience with neurotization surgery.

Ultrasound Evaluation of Upper Limb Sublesional Muscle Morphology in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury.
Muscle Nerve
January 2025
International Collaboration on Repair Discoveries (ICORD), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Introduction/aims: Upper limb paralysis is arguably the most limiting consequence of cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI). There is limited knowledge regarding the early structural changes of muscles implicated in grasp/pinch function and upper extremity nerve transfer surgeries. We evaluated: (1) muscle size and echo intensity (EI) in subacute cSCI (2-6 months) and (2) the influence of lower motor neuron (LMN) damage on these ultrasound parameters.

Introduction: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is a technique that has proven effective for the treatment and prevention of chronic pain following amputation, though its adoption remains limited. The authors report on their initial experience using TMR.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted in a military trauma center involving traumatic amputees treated with either curative or preemptive TMR.
Vertical Superior Vector Suspension of the Anterior Mobile Face with the V Plication Facelift: A Volumization and Lifting Technique.
Aesthetic Plast Surg
January 2025
DrK Medical Group, Athens, Greece.
Background: In most of the published plication techniques in face lift surgery, the vectors of plication are not entirely superiorly and vertically directed. The same applies with the deep plane, SMAS elevation techniques in the majority of which the vectors of traction are not superiorly vertically directed. The aging symptoms are mostly prominent at the anterior mobile face due to the gravity effect, and this is the area where attention should be focused to correct these symptoms following a face lift surgery.

Material And Methods: Forty-nine fetuses, aged between 15 and 40 weeks of gestation, were examined for the morphological development of the latissimus dorsi.

Front Surg
January 2025
Department of Clinical Sciences, Umeå University, Umeå, Sweden.
Background: We analyzed trends in age at surgery and surgical approach over time and geography.
Methods: We performed a systematic review according to PRISMA-IPD guidelines to include individual patient data. Collected data included age at surgery, location of surgery, and surgical approach.
