The last 14 years around 4000 operations of the gall-bladder and the gall-system were performed at the surgical hospital in Braunschweig. All cases were benign. A papillectomy was performed in more than 500 cases. Because of better intraoperative diagnostic and routine radiomanometry of nearly all the patients the contingent of papillotomy, which was usually 25% to 30%, decreased to 10% to 12%. Our statistic shows that there was no increase of complications or of the postoperative lethality due to the papillotomy. On the other hand we had to performe a second operation in 82 cases, who had no papillotomy at the first surgical approach. 14 of these patients had a biliodigestive anastomosis and later a bad polycystectomy syndrom. On the other side we had a group of patients who got ailments years after the cholecystectomy. These patients had a stenosis of the papilla as a real second disease and needed to undergo a second operation.

Background And Objectives: Accurate intraoperative assessment of coronal alignment is critical to achieving favorable clinical outcomes in adult spinal deformity surgery. However, surgical positioning creates challenges in predicting standing coronal alignment. Gravity-based plumblines require an upright posture and are not possible intraoperatively.

Case: A 48-year-old man with multiple injuries sustained a Gustilo type 3A right open distal humerus fracture with a 4-cm wound, contralateral radius shaft, and ilium fractures. Following wound irrigation on the day of injury, second look debridement showed crushed triceps and severe contamination extending into the distal humerus medullary canal. After 6 days of initial plate fixation, he developed signs of deep infection.

Balance is crucial for various athletic tasks, and accurately assessing balance ability among elite athletes using simple and accessible measurement methods is a significant challenge in sports science. A common approach to balance assessment involves recording center of pressure (CoP) displacements using force platforms, with various indicators proposed to distinguish subtle balance differences. However, these indicators have not reached a consensus, and it remains unclear whether these analyses alone can fully explain the complex interactions of postural control.

Potential trend of regenerative treatment for type I diabetes has been introduced for more than a decade. However, the technologies regarding insulin-producing cell (IPC) production and transplantation are still being developed. Here, we propose the potential IPC production protocol employing mouse gingival fibroblast-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (mGF-iPSCs) as a resource and the pre-clinical approved subcutaneous IPC transplantation platform for further clinical confirmation study.
