Department of Radiology, San Pellegrino Hospital, Castiglione delle Stiviere.
Aims: To assess the characteristics of left atrial appendage (LAA) stump and left atrial (LA) volume after standalone totally thoracoscopic LAA exclusion in 40 patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and contraindications to oral anticoagulation (OAC), using cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE).
Methods: Using CCT and TOE, we evaluated correct AtriClip Pro II positioning, the presence and characteristics of the LAA stump and the postprocedural LA volume, at 3 months' follow-up. Stump depth was measured with both CCT and TOE using a new method, based on left circumflex artery (LCX) course.

Use of clodronate for painful knee prosthesis in osteoarthritis patients: a 6-month pilot study.
Minerva Med

School of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Research Center of Osteoporosis and Osteoarticular Pathologies, University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Knee replacement surgery often leads to pain from prosthetic devices, prompting the exploration of bisphosphonates like clodronate (CLO) for treatment due to their analgesic and anti-inflammatory benefits.
- In a pilot study with 18 patients averaging 73 years old, participants received CLO alongside rehabilitation to assess changes in pain and functionality over 6 months, using pain and activity scores as metrics.
- Results showed significant reductions in pain (VAS score decrease) and improvements in functionality (higher TLS score), suggesting that CLO combined with rehab exercises effectively alleviates pain and enhances the function of knee prostheses, with a high initial dose proving more beneficial than weekly doses.
