Article Synopsis
  • The Italian Society of Echography and Cardiovascular Imaging (SIECVI) conducted a national survey to investigate stress echocardiography (SE) practices across Italy, collecting data from 228 laboratories in November 2022.
  • The survey revealed that out of 179 centers performing SE, most were located in northern Italy, and the study categorized them into low, moderate, and high volume of activity based on the number of SE examinations.
  • Key findings indicated differences in the use of stressors, with a tendency for high-volume centers to employ multiple stress techniques and incorporate advanced evaluations like coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) more frequently than low and moderate volume centers.

Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses a rare case of post-traumatic intra-orbital meningoencephalocele in a 69-year-old man due to an orbital roof fracture, which was successfully treated with a modified one-piece orbitozygomatic craniotomy.
  • An extensive literature review included 22 studies involving 28 patients, revealing that the majority were males around 34.7 years old, with most suffering from ocular injuries and many having associated intracranial issues.
  • The findings suggest that while many orbital roof fractures can be managed non-operatively, surgical intervention, such as the one performed in this case, provides better exposure and reduces brain retraction compared to traditional methods.
