Article Abstract

Introduction: Recent technologies and new devices continue to be developed in vitreoretinal surgeries, and they provide more details, enhance safety, improve surgeons' comfort, and better visual and anatomical outcomes. Some devices have been used for better visualization during surgery, and some help the operation performance. They are divided into the following titles: Intraoperative OCT (including hand-held, probe-integrated, and microscope-integrated OCT), three-dimensional visualization system, virtual reality system, endoscopic vitrectomy (fiber optics and non-fiber optics), wide-angle viewing systems (contact and non-contact lenses), endo-illumination, light filters, chromovitrectomy, the retinal prosthesis (including epiretinal, subretinal, and suprachoroidal devices), robot-assisted vitreoretinal surgery, newer Vitreoretinal instruments, gene and cell therapy.

Areas Covered: In this narrative review, we focused on PubMed articles between 2010-2023 with these keywords: 'Optical Coherence Tomography,' 'Three-Dimensional,' 'Virtual System,' 'intraoperative,' 'endoscopic,' 'vitrectomy,' 'lens,' 'illumination,' 'filters,' 'chromovitrectomy,' 'prosthesis,' 'robotic surgery,' 'instrument,' 'gene,' 'cell.'

Expert Opinion: The main aim of this review is to update the reader on the latest progression in intraoperative imaging and surgical vision technologies and to provide an understanding of how each has helped improve operation and surgical outcomes. The surgeons should know recent updates to do their best and achieve the most excellent results.

Objective: The effectiveness and optimal stimulation site of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for central poststroke pain (CPSP) remain elusive. The objective of this retrospective international multicenter study was to assess clinical as well as neuroimaging-based predictors of long-term outcomes after DBS for CPSP.

Methods: The authors analyzed patient-based clinical and neuroimaging data of previously published and unpublished cohorts from 6 international DBS centers.

Zero-Crosstalk Tumor-Targeting Ratiometric Near-Infrared γ-Glutamyltranspeptidase Probe for Fluorescent-Guided Surgical Resection of Orthotopic Hepatic Tumor.

China.

The challenge of "false positive" signals significantly complicates tumor localization and surgical resection, which are pivotal for successful tumor surgeries. Therefore, the development of a method for preoperative tumor localization and intraoperative margin determination holds considerable promise for improving surgical outcomes. In this study, a zero-crosstalk ratiometric tumor-targeting near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe was developed for precise cancer diagnosis and intraoperative navigation via NIR fluorescence imaging.

Background: The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is currently the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction. In cases where the DIEP is contraindicated, the profunda artery perforator (PAP) flap is now the preferred second-line option in our institution. The PAP flap poses unique challenges to the reconstructive surgeon, especially in Asian women with low body mass index (BMI).

Surgical options and outcomes for treatment of osteoarthritis of the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint.

J Hand Surg Eur Vol

January 2025

Institut de la main Nantes-Atlantique, Saint-Herblain, France.

Osteoarthritis of the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint is frequent but often pain-free or well tolerated with non-surgical treatment. Surgical options are numerous and none seems to have clear evidence of superiority. In addition to well-established procedures, such as scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint arthrodesis, distal scaphoid resection and trapeziectomy, more recent surgical techniques have been reported.

Background: Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) arising in the body or tail of the pancreas can be amenable to laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with or without concomitant splenectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy for SPN using the Warshaw technique as a means to preserve spleens in children.

Methods: We reviewed our database of SPN patients 19 years and younger (January 2006-December 2023).
