Article Abstract
Objectives: Subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery (SEPS) is usually performed for posteromedial perforators in the supine position, but subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery for posterolateral perforators in the prone position has not been reported.
Methods: A 51-year-old male suffered from a venous stasis ulcer around his lateral malleolus because of reflux in the small saphenous vein and incompetent perforating veins around the ulcer.
Results: Stripping of the small saphenous vein and subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery utilizing screw-type ports was successfully conducted in the prone position.
Conclusions: The prone position enables interruption of the posterolateral perforators, because gravity-dependent flattening of the muscles enables creation of sufficient subfascial space.

Impact of the antireflux implantation's site for continent cutaneous urinary diversion: Native bladder versus enterocystoplasty.

Introduction: In patients who cannot perform intermittent self-catheterization via the urethra, continent cutaneous urinary diversion (CCUD) represents a valuable alternative, often associated with enterocystoplasty (EC). The CCUD is created using the appendix or the ileum, which can be implanted into the native bladder (NB) or the EC using various surgical techniques. This study aimed to evaluate postoperative outcomes and functional results of CCUD according to these two surgical approaches.

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an established therapy for refractory back and leg pain, traditionally utilizing laminectomy-placed paddle leads or percutaneous cylindrical leads. Although percutaneous systems reduce soft tissue injury, they suffer higher migration rates and less precise dorsal column targeting. Minimally invasive surgical (MIS) techniques using tubular retractors combine the stability of paddle electrodes with reduced surgical trauma.

Transaxillary endoscopic subfascial operation for persistent muscular torticollis in pediatric patients: A 13-year retrospective study in Taiwan.

Division of Pediatric Surgery, Department of Surgery, Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital, Kaohsiung Medical University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Electronic address:
Background: The endoscopic surgery for persistent muscular torticollis has been well-described and most are subcutaneous working caverns. As the sternocleidomastoid muscle is located beneath the deep cervical fascia that corresponds to the pectoral fascia, this study aimed to review our results of the transaxillary approach under the pectoral fascia and the deep cervical fascia.
Methods: Between November 2009 and January 2022, pediatric patients with persistent muscular torticollis receiving transaxillary endoscopic subfascial operation were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed.

Introduction: Continent catheterizable channels (CCC) provide an alternative route to the bladder in both pediatric and adult patients. This study compared very long-term complications and revision-free survival of three different CCC techniques: appendicovesicostomy (AVS), ileum (Monti), and tubularized bladder flap (TBF).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed.
