Hallux valgus recurrence after traditional open bunion surgery is a notable concern. New minimally invasive bunion surgery (MIBS) offers a promising new revision option for those with recurrent hallux valgus. This innovative approach signifies a noteworthy departure from traditional open surgical methods by minimizing tissue damage, allowing immediate weight bearing, and providing improved patient satisfaction outcomes. This article provides is insights into this emerging method, case examples, and key surgical treatment pearls for treating the recurrent bunion with MIBS. As more surgeons gain MIBS experience, this approach will likely become the gold standard revision method for revisions.

Anti-seizure medications and deep brain stimulation are widely used therapies to treat seizures; however, both face limitations such as resistance and the unpredictable nature of seizures. Recent advancements, including responsive neural stimulation and on-demand drug release, have been developed to address these challenges. However, a gap remains, as electrical stimulation provides only transient effects while medication has a delayed onset.

Objective: Oral cavity malignancies (OCC) and oropharyngeal malignancies (OPC) historically have higher rates of positive surgical margins (PSM) compared to other solid malignancies. The objective of this study is to understand trends and predictors in positive surgical margins (PSM) for OPSCC and OCSCC using the National Cancer Database (NCDB).
Study Design: Retrospective Cohort Study.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with several mild metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance (IR), obesity, and dyslipidemia, as well as with some more severe ones, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cardiovascular disease. Clinically, mild metabolic complications of PCOS such as IR or lipid metabolism disorders are the predictors of these more severe ones. So far, there is no reliable single marker that enables defining metabolic risk in patients with PCOS.

Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease characterized by persistent immune dysregulation, which presents considerable limitations in current medical therapy.
Objects: This study investigates a supramolecular gel (PSPD), which aims to minimize systemic adverse effects through local injection, provide long-lasting anti-inflammatory effects, and modulate the mucosal immune microenvironment.
Methods: The properties of PSPD were evaluated using rheological experiments.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is highly prevalent among aging men and a significant contributor to global mortality. Balancing early detection and treatment of "clinically significant" disease with avoiding over-detection and overtreatment of slow-growing tumors is challenging, especially for elderly patients with competing health risks and potentially aggressive disease phenotypes. This review emphasizes the importance of individualized approaches for diagnosing and treating PCa in geriatric patients.
