Background: Posterior sagittal is a very well accepted approach in the treatment of anorectal malformations. This approach provides good access and exposure through the perineum to the deep pelvic structures. It reduces risk of injury to important structures as dissection remains in midline.

Aims And Objectives: To access feasibility of posterior sagittal approach for non-anorectal malformation indications and to widen the spectrum.

Material And Methods: We present a series of 10 cases of non-anorectal malformations operated by this approach for 4 years.

Results: Six patients included in the study were of Disorders of Sexual Differentiation with pseudovagina, three of Y duplication of the urethra, and one of cervical atresia. All patients had good results.

Conclusion: Posterior sagittal approach is feasible, safe with minimal bleeding, and no postoperative incontinence. It can safely be used for non-anorectal indications.

Background: Comparative studies of posterior lumbar interbody fusion with cortical bone trajectory and pedicle screw in older patients, particularly in those aged ≥ 80 years, are rare. This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the clinical and surgical outcomes following posterior lumbar interbody fusion with pedicle screw fixation compared to cortical bone trajectory in patients aged ≥ 80 years with degenerative lumbar spine disease.

Methods: We included 68 patients aged ≥ 80 years who underwent degenerative lumbar spinal surgery at our spine center between January 2011 and December 2020.

What is the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fracture?

J Orthop Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Orthopedics and Rheumoorthopedics, Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education, Prof. Adam Gruca Orthopedic and Trauma Teaching Hospital, Konarskiego 13, Otwock, 05-400, Poland.

Background: Posterior malleolus fractures may be fixed to restore syndesmosis stability. However, these fractures are often accompanied by ruptures of other ligaments that stabilize the syndesmosis. This study investigates the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fractures and its effect on rotational stability.

Background: Prone lateral spinal surgery for simultaneous lateral and posterior approaches has recently been proposed to facilitate surgical room efficiency. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of minimally invasive prone lateral spinal surgery using a rotatable radiolucent Jackson table.

Methods: From July 2021 to June 2023, a consecutive series of patients who received minimally invasive prone lateral spinal surgery for various etiologies by the same surgical team were reviewed.

Development and validation of a score for clinical deterioration in patients with cerebral venous thrombosis.

Neurosurg Rev

January 2025

Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Friendship hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 95 Yong 'an Road, Xicheng District, Beijing, China.

Patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) may experience poor response to anticoagulant therapy and delayed surgical treatment may lead to clinical deterioration. However, the factors contributing to clinical deterioration remain poorly understood. Patients with CVT from three centers between January 2017 and October 2023 were included and grouped as the development cohort and validation cohort.

Objective: To describe our experience with anorectal malformation (ARM) patients, while analyzing complications and risk factors.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study of ARM patients aged 0-18 years old undergoing surgery from 2006 to 2023 was carried out. Demographic variables, associated malformations, age and repair surgery operating times, presence and type of colostomy, previous intestinal preparation, and presence and type of surgical complications -intestinal occlusion, anal prolapse, stenosis, bleeding, dehiscence, extrusion, anoplasty misposition, urethral perforation, and stomal complications- were collected.
