Looking at the bibliography of the venous sole of the foot (Lejars), the authors point out the opposite convictions concerning this structure. For some ones, it doesn't exist, but fort the others, it is a very important network of tiny veins, such as it was described by Lejars himself. However, all this studies, are made upon cadavers, injected or not, and must be compared with results from living people by the mean of angiography, non invasive Vascular Assessment, or RMN, which take in account vasomotricity.

Intracranial complications in adult patients with severe pneumococcal meningitis: a retrospective multicenter cohort study.
Ann Intensive Care
December 2024
Université Paris Cité, INSERM U1137, Paris, F-75018, France.
Background: We aimed to investigate the association of intracranial complications diagnosed on neuroimaging with neurological outcomes of adults with severe pneumococcal meningitis.
Methods: We performed a retrospective multicenter study on consecutive adults diagnosed with pneumococcal meningitis requiring at least 48 h of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and undergoing neuroimaging, between 2005 and 2021. All neuroimaging were reanalyzed to look for intracranial complications which were categorized as (1) ischemic lesion, (2) intracranial hemorrhage (3) abscess/empyema, (4) ventriculitis, (5) cerebral venous thrombosis, (6) hydrocephalus, (7) diffuse cerebral oedema.
Retrocaval ureter: a case report and review of the literature.
J Med Case Rep
November 2024
Department of Surgery, School of Clinical Medicine, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Background: The retrocaval ureter is a rare congenital anomaly resulting from abnormal development of the inferior vena cava. The obstruction is usually at the retrocaval segment of the ureter, as it lies between the inferior vena cava and the body of the third lumbar vertebra. Computed tomography intravenous urography is the gold standard for investigating this condition and can reveal ipsilateral hydronephrosis and the fishhook sign or sickle sign of the proximal ureter, depending on the type of retrocaval ureter.

Purpose: Care of the acutely injured trauma patient is integral to the practice of emergency medicine. It is currently unknown how most emergency medicine residencies structure their residents' trauma experience and little guidance for competency assessment is provided by the Residency Review Committee. Our study aimed to determine current emergency medicine residency practices in trauma resuscitation.

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is considered a rare but devastating complication after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The problem lies in the fact that there is a paucity of "gold standard" diagnostic tests that make the diagnosis of PJI extremely challenging. Recently, there have been increasing evidence-based guidelines that have been introduced to standardise the approach to a patient with a suspected PJI.
