Radiological Insights of a Complex Orbital Blow-Out Fracture.
Cureus
November 2024
Radiology, NHS, Essex, GBR.
CT is the gold standard for evaluating orbital trauma, providing rapid and detailed imaging of bony structures, soft tissue, and the globe. This is crucial in assessing orbital trauma due to its potential to cause significant impairment of ocular function. This case report presents a 35-year-old male who was admitted to the emergency department with a complicated left orbital blow-out fracture following blunt facial trauma.

Background: Guidelines advocate pulmonary function testing (PFT) in preoperative evaluation before lung resection. Although forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) are recommended, they are often poor predictors of complications.
Objectives: Determine if PFT testing results other than FEV1 and DLCO are associated with post-operative complications.

Department of Oral and Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospital Basel, Basel, Switzerland.
Study Design: N/A.
Objective: This study investigated the different ways of orbital floor reconstruction with special focus on reconstruction materials, imaging modalities (intra-/ post-operative), 3D printing and navigation.
Methods: The heads of all governmental-run or associated cranio-maxillofacial surgery units in Switzerland, Austria and Germany were asked in person or received an email link for an online survey with 12 questions.
Intraoperative navigation in craniofacial surgery.

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dankook University Hospital, Cheonan, Korea.
Craniofacial surgery requires comprehensive anatomical knowledge of the head and neck to ensure patient safety and surgical precision. Over recent decades, there have been significant advancements in imaging techniques and the development of real-time surgical navigation systems. Intraoperative navigation technology aligns surgical instruments with imaging-derived information on patient anatomy, enabling surgeons to closely follow preoperative plans.

Article Synopsis
- Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common surgical procedure for patients with severe knee osteoarthritis, especially when non-surgical treatments fail, leading to significant improvements in pain, function, and quality of life.
- The procedure can use various components (cemented, cementless, or a hybrid) and is generally performed with a focus on mechanical alignment, although newer alignment strategies like gap and kinematic balancing are showing promising results in early studies.
- The preferred surgical technique for cementless TKA involves a specific patient positioning and incision approach, starting with the application of a thigh tourniquet and a parapatellar incision, ensuring proper alignment and access during the surgery.*
