Post-acne keloids have become a serious problem affecting the physical and mental health of adolescents. However, traditional single-treatment methods have a high recurrence rate and are highly susceptible to a variety of complications. Postoperative radiotherapy has rapidly become a popular choice for comprehensive postoperative treatment because of its painlessness, non-invasiveness, convenience, low recurrence rate, and few complications. 1 In the available literature, no serious complications have been reported. Here we introduce a case of keloid after acne with isotope strontium-90 as a comprehensive treatment regimen, which leads to extensive depigmentation in the maxillofacial region. Combined with knowledge of the relevant literature, the mechanisms, types, and timing and dose, and reflect on balancing of recurrence rates and complications to deepen our understanding of the disease.

Research progress of femoral head necrosis in HIV-infected patients.
Ann Med
December 2025
Department of Joint and Sports Medicine, Zhongnan Hospital, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
As life expectancy among patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) increases, a growing number of complications have been observed. This population displays an elevated risk of ischemic necrosis of the femoral head in comparison to the general population, which may be attributed to HIV infection, antiretroviral medication use, and hormone application. Patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who also have necrosis of the femoral head tend to present at an earlier age, with a rapid disease progression and a high incidence of bilateral onset.

Ann Surg Oncol
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Isala, Zwolle, The Netherlands.
Background: Similar to T1 colon cancer (CC), risk stratification may guide T2 CC treatment and reduce unnecessary major surgery. In this study, prediction models were developed that could identify T2 CC patients with a lower risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) for whom (intensive) follow-up after local treatment could be considered.
Methods: A nationwide cohort study was performed involving pT2 CC patients who underwent surgery between 2012 and 2020, using data from the Dutch ColoRectal Audit, which were linked to the Nationwide Pathology Databank.

Department of Anaesthesia, Main-Kinzig-Kliniken, Herzbachweg 14, 63571, Gelnhausen, Germany.
Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain. Pain control is crucial for rapid mobilisation and reduces side effects as well as the length of hospital stay. In this context, a variety of multimodal pain control regimes show good pain relief, including several nerve blocks, iPACK and local infiltration analgesia (LIA).

Purpose: Traumatic abdominal intercostal/flank hernias present a perplexing challenge for surgeons seeking to repair them. There has been a paucity of studies describing robotic repairs of such hernias. We aim to evaluate the effectiveness of the Robotic-assisted Extended Total Extraperitoneal/Transversus Abdominus Release (rETEP/TAR) method in repairing traumatic abdominal intercostal and flank hernias.
