This article provides a critical analysis of the application of the advanced language model, GPT-4, in generating surgical operative notes, with a focus on its use in ophthalmology as presented by Waisberg et al. The discussion underscores the inherent complexity and specificity of operative notes, the issue of accountability, and the potential data protection issues associated with the use of AI in healthcare. The letter emphasizes the need for a more comprehensive understanding of the complexities involved in applying AI in healthcare and calls for a more nuanced and responsible approach to the integration of AI in surgical documentation.

Background: Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has been used in reconstructive microsurgery since the inception of the field. However, when compared to placebo groups, its efficacy is not confirmed. In our study, we hypothesize that the utility of ASA postoperatively in microvascular surgery is not associated with improved outcomes.

The bifurcation of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is one of the most common sites for the formation of cerebral aneurysms, presenting significant challenges for surgical management. A primary concern in this area is the recurrence of aneurysms following surgical clipping, which necessitates a thorough investigation of the contributing factors. This study examined all cases of rebleeding from previously clipped MCA aneurysms among 195 surgically treated patients over an 11-year period.

Introduction: More extensive and cohesive studies on quadriceps tendon rupture (QTR) repair surgery are required to guide effective treatment strategies. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to identify predictors of subjective functional recovery following QTR repair surgery.
Materials And Methods: This multicentre retrospective cohort study enrolled 191 adults (age ≥ 18 years) who underwent surgical unilateral QTR repair (2010-2022) and had ≥ 1-year postoperative follow-up at three trauma centres in Germany.
