Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of the inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique during vitrectomy for treating macular hole-induced retinal detachment (MHRD) in high myopia patients, a challenging complication for vitreoretinal surgeons due to its treatment complexity.
Methods: We conducted a prospective study analyzing 92 eyes diagnosed with MHRD, all undergoing vitrectomy using the inverted ILM flap technique between February 2022 and September 2024. Successful surgery was defined as achieving retinal reattachment, macular hole closure, and improvement in visual acuity by the 12-month postoperative follow-up.

The yeast buds at sites pre-determined by cortical landmarks deposited during prior budding. During mating between haploid cells in the lab, external pheromone cues override the cortical landmarks to drive polarization and cell fusion. By contrast, in haploid gametes (called spores) produced by meiosis, a pre-determined polarity site drives initial polarized morphogenesis independent of mating partner location.

Background: Prone transpsoas lumbar interbody fusion (PTP) is a newer technique to treat various spinal disc pathologies. PTP is a variation of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) that is performed with the patient prone rather than in the lateral decubitus position. This approach offers similar benefits of lateral spinal surgery, which include less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and quicker recovery compared with traditional open spine surgery.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease that manifests clinically in varying forms depending on the degree of enzyme deficiency. CAH is most commonly caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) due to mutations in the CYP21A2 gene. Whereas there is a spectrum of disease severity, 21OHD is generally categorized into 3 forms.

Objective: To report clinical outcomes of skeletally immature dogs with antebrachial deformities secondary to premature closure of the distal radial physis (PCDRP) treated with angular corrections and distraction osteogenesis using circular external skeletal fixation (CESF).
Study Design: Retrospective multi-institutional case series.
Animals: A total of 12 client-owned dogs with premature distal radial physeal closure.
