Endoscopic Reconstruction of the Sellar Floor by Extended Inferior Turbinate Flap in Recurrent Pituitary Tumors.

 This aim of this study was to address the outcome of endoscopic reconstruction of the sellar floor by extended inferior turbinate flap.  This is a retrospective study of 34 patients with a recurrent pituitary tumor. They were treated between March 2018 and December 2021 by endoscopic extended endonasal approach with the reconstruction of the sellar floor by an extended posterior pedicle inferior turbinate flap.

Modified one third tubular plate (spring plate) augmented with reconstruction plates for treatment of comminuted posterior wall acetabular fractures, Short to midterm outcomes of 24 patients.

Unlabelled: The most common form of acetabular fracture is believed to be the posterior wall; its incidence ranges from 25% to 47%. Managing such fractures has been difficult in the past and until recently. To obtain a favorable functional outcome, an accurate diagnosis and a well-executed treatment strategy are essential.

To B or not to B: the application of uterine compression sutures to reduce blood loss after myomectomy.

Introduction: The aim was to assess the hemostatic impact of B-Lynch sutures following an open myomectomy for efficacy.

Long-Term Outcome of Pars Plana Vitrectomy for Retained Posterior Segment Intraocular Foreign Body Secondary to Gunshot Injury.

Purpose: To report the long-term outcome of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for management of retained posterior segment intraocular foreign body (IOFB) secondary to gunshot injury.

Methods: This is a retrospective interventional case series including consecutive patients who had PPV for retained posterior segment IOFB secondary to gunshot injury. Main outcome measures were final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), long-term globe survival and detection of complications.

Clinical presentations and outcome of severe community-acquired pneumonia.

Background: Severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP) represents a frequent and potentially life-threatening condition. About 10% of all hospitalized patients with CAP require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), and the mortality of these patients reaches 20-50%.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical presentation, bacteriological profile and outcome of severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP).
