Selective Neurectomy with Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interface Surgery for Facial Synkinesis.
Facial Plast Surg Aesthet Med
January 2025
Division of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA.
Selective neurectomy (SN) typically leaves cut nerve endings to be either free-floating or buried in facial muscles.

J Endovasc Ther
January 2025
Department of Vascular Surgery, Rijnstate, Arnhem, The Netherlands.
Purpose: The goal of the study described in this protocol is to build a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) model to predict abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) shrinkage 1 year after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
Methods: In this retrospective observational multicenter study, approximately 1000 patients will be enrolled from hospital records of 5 experienced vascular centers. Patients will be included if they underwent elective EVAR for infrarenal AAA with initial assisted technical success and had imaging available of the same modality preoperatively and at 1-year follow-up (CTA-CTA or US-US).

Management of Ankle Fracture Wounds Using Urinary Bladder Matrix: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Orthopedic Surgery, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, SAU.
Ankle fractures, often accompanied by other injuries and complications, pose a significant healthcare burden due to their high incidence and associated treatment challenges. This case report investigates the use of Cytal™ Wound Matrix, derived from urinary bladder matrix (UBM), in managing postoperative complications following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of a trimalleolar ankle fracture. A 57-year-old male with a history of hypertension sustained a trimalleolar ankle fracture following a road traffic accident.
