Benefits, problems, and optimal timing of administration of indocyanine green fluorescence cholangiography in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
BMJ Surg Interv Health Technol
January 2025
Department of Surgical Oncology, Kanazawa Medical University, Kahoku-gun, Japan.
Objectives: The advantages of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence cholangiography have been emphasized, but its disadvantages remain unclear. This study investigated the advantages and disadvantages of this modality, particularly the optimal timing of administration of ICG fluorescence.
Design: This was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected patient data.
Reduction Mammaplasty: Closed Suction Drains Do Not Reduce Hematoma or Seroma But Increase Infection Risk.
Ann Plast Surg
February 2025
From the Department of Plastic Surgery, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN.
Background: While there is mounting evidence that closed suction drains are not necessary, there is a paucity of literature to demonstrate that drains are harmful after breast reduction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of drains on postoperative seroma, hematoma, and infection, as well as elucidate any risk factors that may be implicated in the development of these complications.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted of all reduction mammaplasty procedures at our university medical center between 2010-2020.
A Case of Fournier's Gangrene in a Patient with Human Immunodeficiency Syndrome.

General Internal Medicine, Larkin Community Hospital Palm Springs Campus, Hialeah, USA.
Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a type of necrotizing fasciitis affecting the abdomen or perineum. It is a polymicrobial infection that progresses to an obliterating endarteritis, causing thrombosis and subsequent tissue necrosis, allowing pathogenic invasion of interfacial planes.Patients with Fournier's gangrene typically have underlying systemic conditions that cause vascular insufficiencies or immunosuppression.

Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, The Affiliated Children's Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University (Hunan Children's Hospital), Changsha, Hunan, China.
Objective: To retrospectively assess the outcomes of open-heart repair for ventricular septal defect in children using a right vertical axillary incision compared to median sternotomy.
Method: From January 2022 to May 2023, children who underwent open-heart surgery for the repair of congenital ventricular septal defect in our department were selected for a propensity score-matched study. The propensity score matching method was utilized to pair children in the right vertical axillary incision group with those undergoing surgery via median sternotomy at a 1:1 ratio, based on age and weight.
Comparison of outcomes following prepectoral and subpectoral implants for breast reconstruction in patients with breast cancer.
Front Oncol
January 2025
Thyroid and Breast Medical Center, Weifang People's Hospital, Shandong Second Medical University, Weifang, Shandong, China.
Background: In recent years, different approaches to implant-based breast reconstruction have increasingly become an important option to meet both the treatment and postoperative aesthetic needs of breast cancer patients. This study selected two commonly used techniques for the prepectoral approach: single-incision, gas-inflated endoscopic prepectoral breast reconstruction (SIE-BR) and open prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction (C-BR), as well as a commonly used technique for the subpectoral approach: open subpectoral implant-based breast reconstruction (SI-BR). By comparing the clinical efficacy and aesthetic outcomes of these three techniques in the treatment of breast cancer patients, this study aims to summarize the advantages of the prepectoral approach.
