Intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is now accepted as the most effective means of aphakic correction in selected patients undergoing cataract surgery. In terms of final rehabilitation, however, complications such as corneal oedema, retinal detachment, and cystoid macular oedema remain problematic. Results of prospective concurrent trials of IOL implantation performed at the Wilmer Institute are presented, with particular reference to the posterior chamber intraocular lens and with specific emphasis on postoperative complications.

What is the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fracture?
J Orthop Surg Res
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics and Rheumoorthopedics, Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education, Prof. Adam Gruca Orthopedic and Trauma Teaching Hospital, Konarskiego 13, Otwock, 05-400, Poland.
Background: Posterior malleolus fractures may be fixed to restore syndesmosis stability. However, these fractures are often accompanied by ruptures of other ligaments that stabilize the syndesmosis. This study investigates the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fractures and its effect on rotational stability.

Diaphragmatic rupture during labor is an exceptionally rare condition, with a limited number of cases reported in the literature. A recent review underscores the rarity of this complication and emphasizes the associated challenges in diagnosis and management. This case report presents a postpartum diaphragmatic rupture, focusing on the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges it poses, particularly in the context of unsupervised deliveries.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Osaka General Medical Center, Osaka, 558-8558, Japan.
Background: Left atrial dissection is a rare and occasionally fatal complication of cardiac surgery and is defined as the creation of a false chamber through a tear in the mitral valve annulus extending into the left atrial wall. Some patients are asymptomatic, while others present with various symptoms, such as chest pain, dyspnea, and even cardiac arrest. Although there is no established management for left atrial dissection, surgery should be considered in patients with hemodynamic disruption.

J Oral Sci
January 2025
Department of Anatomy, Nihon University School of Dentistry.
Purpose: This study aimed to characterize the 3-dimensional morphology of larger recurved caniniform teeth (LrCTs) and their underlying intraosseous structures in Caprodon schlegelii.
Methods: Specimens (n = 5) with a total length of approximately 32 cm were fixed and processed for micro-computed tomography and/or stereomicroscopy. Volume data of the LrCT-bearing jaws were examined using volume rendering images.
Relationship of Angle Kappa with Ocular Parameters using Swept-Source Ocular Coherence Tomography in Cataract Surgery Patients.
Curr Eye Res
January 2025
Sussex Eye Hospital, Brighton & Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK.
Purpose: To assess the relationship between angle kappa (apparent chord mu) and ocular parameters in cataract patients.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the data on apparent chord mu, age, axial length, anterior chamber depth, anterior and posterior mean keratometry, mean total keratometry, white-to-white, central corneal thickness and lens thickness were collected for consecutive cataract patients. Correlation (Pearson) between chord mu and the other ocular parameters was calculated.
