The authors present an analysis of their experiences with performing more than 330 video endoscopic operations on the autopsy material and in 172 patients. In 54 of these patients operations were performed for traumatic intracranial convex hematomas, in 21 for adenomas of the hypophysis, in 14--for arterial aneurysms, and 53 patients with discogenic radiculitis, spinal tumors, consequences of severe spinal traumas. In 25 patients the endoscopic videomonitoring was made during excision of the tumors, paratumorous cysts and abscesses of the brain, decompression of the optic nerve, plasty of the anterior cranial fossa fundus with closing the liquor fistulas. Intraoperative angioscopy in carotid endarterectomy was fulfilled in 5 patients. The video endoscopy was proved to result in less traumaticity of the radical surgery. It is a valuable and highly informative method giving optimum results in performing many microsurgical operations.

The 2024 European Society of Intensive Care Medicine clinical practice guideline provide clinicians with evidence-based recommendations on intravenous fluid in critically ill adults across a range of common conditions. These guidelines aim to improve the practices of fluid therapy by adopting a global perspective that considers both clinical efficacy and resource utilization in diverse healthcare settings. The guidelines address three key questions: (1) albumin versus crystalloids, (2) balanced crystalloids versus isotonic saline, and (3) small-volume hypertonic solutions versus isotonic crystalloids.

Tear trough deformity (TTD) is a significant cosmetic concern, with current treatments relying primarily on invasive injectable fillers, which are costly and carry risks of complications. Despite the widespread use of hyaluronic acid (HA) in cosmetic applications, its poor dermal permeation has limited the development of effective topical fillers for TTD.This study aim to develop and evaluate a novel hyaluronic acid nanogel (nanofiller, NF) as a non-invasive topical filler for TTD.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies, in addition to standard immuno- or chemotherapy and surgical approaches, have massively improved the outcome for cancer patients. However, these therapies have their limitations and improved strategies, including access to reliable cancer vaccines, are needed.
