We report a 60-year-old patient who underwent bilateral mastectomy at different times, followed by immediate autologous reconstruction with different flaps: deep-inferior epigastric-perforator flap on one breast, and fat-augmented latissimus dorsi on the contralateral side. At 20-month follow-up, good symmetry was recorded; patient-reported outcome measurements revealed high satisfaction scores.

Factors Influencing Success in Endoscopic Treatment of Grade 4-5 Primary Vesicoureteric Reflux (VUR) in Infancy and Childhood.
J Pediatr Surg

Introduction: There is equipoise among pediatric urologists regarding endoscopic versus surgical intervention for symptomatic Grade 4-5 Vesicoureteric Reflux (VUR), particularly in infancy. Our aim was to assess outcomes of first-line endoscopic treatment in all cases of symptomatic Grade 4-5 VUR and we hypothesised that using endoscopic Dx/HA as first line management for primary VUR would obviate the need for ureteric reimplantation in the majority of cases.
Methods: Retrospective single-surgeon analysis of consecutive patients with primary Grade 4-5 VUR over 15 years.
Blood flow restriction-enhanced platelet-rich plasma: A pilot randomised controlled trial protocol.
J Exp Orthop
January 2025
Centro Médico Profesional Las Mercedes, Av. Principal de Las Mercedes Caracas Venezuela.
Purpose: To assess platelet-rich plasma (PRP) changes in platelet and leucocyte count, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) concentration after bilateral low-load knee extensions under blood flow restriction (BFR).
Methods: The present randomised controlled trial protocol will include two groups: the intervention group, which will undergo bilateral knee extensions under BFR, and the control group, which will perform bilateral knee extensions without BFR. Participants will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio.
Safety of pre-operative venogram for hemodialysis access planning in pre-end-stage kidney disease patients.
J Vasc Access
January 2025
Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Although conventional pre-operative venography can accurately delineate venous anatomy as an alternative to ultrasound for hemodialysis access planning, it may carry a risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and progression of renal failure in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients not yet on dialysis. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pre-operative venograms in pre-end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study (2018-2022) of consecutive pre-ESKD patients who underwent staged bilateral venograms for preoperative vein mapping prior to hemodialysis access creation at a tertiary care medical center.
Audiovisual analysis of the diagnostic video polysomnography in patients with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder.
J Neurol
January 2025
Sleep Unit, Neurology Service, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, CIBERNED, Universitat de Barcelona, Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: The diagnosis of isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (IRBD) requires video polysomnography (V-PSG) showing increased muscle activity and abnormal behaviors in REM sleep.
Objective: To describe in IRBD the behavioral manifestations occurring during REM sleep in the diagnostic V-PSG.
Methods: This is a systematic audiovisual V-PSG analysis of consecutive IRBD patients.
Impact of deep or ovarian endometriosis on pelvic pain and quality of life: prospective cross-sectional ultrasound study.
Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol
January 2025
EGA Institute for Women's Health, Faculty of Population Health Sciences, University College London Hospital, London, UK.
Objective: To assess whether premenopausal women diagnosed with deep or ovarian endometriosis on transvaginal sonography (TVS) were more likely to suffer from dyspareunia and pelvic pain symptoms, and have a lower quality of life, compared to women without sonographically diagnosed deep or ovarian endometriosis.
Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional study carried out between February 2019 and October 2020 at the general gynecology clinic at University College London Hospital, London, UK. All premenopausal women aged 18-50 years, who were examined consecutively by a single experienced examiner and underwent a detailed TVS scan, were eligible for inclusion.
