"A Bridge-over-the Bar": A Novel Strategy to Prevent Paravalvular Regurgitation during Mitral Valve Replacement for Severe Mitral Annular Calcifications.
Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg

Mitral annular calcifications have been known to increase complexity during mitral valve replacement (MVR). Standard procedure requires decalcification followed by reconstruction of the mitral annulus prior to placing the prosthesis. While this is the ideal technique, it is not feasible in every patient due to the associated risks.

Bifrontal decompressive craniectomy (DC), which was once a popular technique for treating midline mass lesions, has seen a notable decline in its therapeutic use within modern neurosurgery. Despite its diminished clinical use, the procedure offers considerable value as an educational tool for surgical training. This study used a Thiel-embalmed cadaver to demonstrate the bifrontal DC procedure, including a Souttar incision, strategic (MacCarty, zygomatic, and apical) keyhole/burr hole placement, superior sagittal sinus suturing, left frontal lobe decortication, and microscopic visualization of the anterior cranial fossa.

IS ESG EFFECTIVE IN THE TREATMENT OF OBESITY AND ASSOCIATEDCOMORBIDITIES?: Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is more effective than lifestyle modifications alone for weight loss and improving obesity-related comorbidities. While it has less effect on weight loss compared to Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) in the short to medium term, it offers similar comorbidities resolution to LSG. IS ESG A SAFE PROCEDURE, AND WHAT ARE ITS RISKS?: The safety profile of ESG is consistently supported in the literature.

Article Synopsis
- Tarsal heights in Asian eyelids were found to be higher than previously reported, which may clarify issues with traditional double eyelid surgery methods.
- A novel 'MAP method' for creating double eyelid creases was developed, involving specific suturing techniques that preserve important eyelid tissue and provide adjustable crease heights based on individual patient preferences.
- This new technique offers better eyelid mechanics, a quicker recovery process, and longer-lasting results with minimal complications compared to classic procedures.
Sports after single-suture synostosis surgery: a survey of Synostosis Research Group members.
Neurosurg Focus
January 2025
18Department of Neurosurgery, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.
Objective: Patients with a history of surgery for single-suture craniosynostosis (SSC) as an infant often wish to participate in sports later in childhood. However, there are no established guidelines from neurosurgeons and craniofacial surgeons to guide parents in which sports their child should or should not participate. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the attitudes and practice patterns of experienced neurosurgeons and craniofacial surgeons regarding the counseling of caregivers of these patients about sports participation.
