The insane path of two cervical intervertebral implants: late migration, esophageal ingrowth, and rectal excretion: an exceptional case report.
J Spine Surg
December 2024
Spinal Surgery Team, Wirbelsäulenzentrum Ostschweiz AG, St. Gallen, Switzerland.
Background: The objective of this report is to present a case of two cervical spine artificial discs (Bryan Cervical Disk) that completely disappeared within 6 months as a result of a high-energy trauma more than 10 years after the initial surgery. Implant dislocation is a known complication in artificial cervical disc replacement. However, this report presents the case of an exceptional migration path with esophageal ingrowth and rectal excretion, not only for one artificial disc but for two at different times It highlights the need for long-term follow-up examinations after artificial cervical disc arthroplasty (ACDA).

Department of Anaesthesiology, Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India.
Background: To evaluate the role of ultrasound (US) in the assessment of the airway and to determine whether US has the potential to serve as effective, noninvasive and less time-consuming method for the diagnosis of difficult intubation in ICU patients.
Patients And Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried in 152 critically ill patients who underwent intubation in the ICU from December 2022 to April 2024. Prior to intubation thyromental height (TMH) and hyomental distance ratio (HMD-R) was measured using a scale and distance from skin to hyoid bone (SHB) and distance from skin to thyrohyoid membrane (STM) was measured using a US.
Transoral Laser Microsurgery Versus Radiotherapy for T1-T2 Glottic Cancer with Anterior Commissure Involvement: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Laryngoscope
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, Shreveport, Louisiana, U.S.A.
Objective: To identify the most effective treatment modality for achieving favorable outcomes in early glottic tumors with anterior commissure involvement (ACI).
Data Sources: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect.
Review Methods: Random-effects proportional meta-analysis model is used to evaluate the oncological and functional outcomes of transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) versus radiation therapy (RT) in early glottic (T1-T2) cancer with ACI.
Data on hydrodynamic flow and aspiration mechanisms in a patient-specific pharyngolaryngeal model with variable epiglottis angles.
Data Brief
February 2025
Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Massachusetts, 1 University Ave., Lowell, MA 01854, USA.
This dataset comprises a comprehensive collection of videos and images illustrating the fluid dynamics of swallowing and aspiration in a patient-specific pharyngolaryngeal model with varying epiglottis angles. The data also includes the physical properties of the fluids used, comprising dynamic viscosity, surface tension, and contact angle. Videos under varying swallowing conditions were collected to investigate the mechanisms underlying aspiration.
