Because of the continuing trend toward earlier repair of hypospadias, improved visualization of tissues is important. We have reviewed 33 consecutive hypospadias repairs performed using the operating microscope. Complications included three strictures (9.1%) and five fistulae (15.1%). The microscope proved most useful in resident teaching, allowing both surgeon and assistant to visualize optimally the tissues.

Objectives: To assess the usefulness of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in patients with early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
Materials And Methods: Seventy-five patients (mean age 62 years) diagnosed with cT1-2 N0 underwent SLNB with Tc, lymphoscintigraphy/SPECT-CT, and gamma probe detection with intraoperative histological examination of the resected sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). Elective neck dissection was performed during the same surgical procedure of primary tumor resection when malignant deposits were detected microscopically.

Pulpotomy, which belongs to vital pulp therapy, has become a strategy for managing pulpitis in recent decades. This minimally invasive treatment reflects the recognition of preserving healthy dental pulp and optimizing long-term patient-centered outcomes. Pulpotomy is categorized into partial pulpotomy (PP), the removal of a partial segment of the coronal pulp tissue, and full pulpotomy (FP), the removal of whole coronal pulp, which is followed by applying the biomaterials onto the remaining pulp tissue and ultimately restoring the tooth.

To analyze the morphologic changes and the extent of severity in end-stage heart disease; and to explore the correlation with their clinical features. Twelve cases of recipients who underwent pediatric cardiac allograft transplantation were collected from May 2022 to November 2023 at the Seventh Medical Center of People's Liberation Army of China General Hospital. Gross pathologic examinations were performed and morphological changes were observed under a light microscope after HE, Masson's trichrome, and reticulin staining.

Chronic heart failure, caused by myocardial fibrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), remains a serious clinical problem that needs urgent resolution. Nitro-oleic acid (OA-NO), an electrophilic nitro-fatty acid found in human plasma, is believed to regulate various pathophysiological functions, particularly anti-inflammation and anti-fibrosis. However, the role of OA-NO in AMI remains unexplored.
