Article Abstract
Two methods of obtaining hemostasis after cold knife cone biopsy were compared in a prospective randomized trial involving 200 patients. One method relied primarily on hemostatic sutures, and the other involved the use of a styptic solution (Monsel's solution) and vaginal pack, thus avoiding the use of sutures altogether. The short- and long-term morbidity in these two groups were compared and 12-month follow-up was completed. The use of sutures did not reduce the incidence of primary hemorrhage. Secondary hemorrhage was twice as frequent in the suture group, although this trend did not quite reach statistical significance. During long-term follow-up, significantly more patients in the suture group developed menstrual symptoms, cervical stenosis, and unsatisfactory colposcopy, requiring further operative intervention as a result.

Endoscopic thulium-fiber laser deroofing and dual stenting for adult duplex ureterocele with preserved upper renal moiety: a case report.
Ann Med Surg (Lond)
September 2025
Universal College of Medical Sciences, Bhairahawa, Nepal.
Background: Adult duplex kidney with ureterocele is rarely diagnosed, especially when the upper moiety retains function. While pediatric laser decompression is established, the use of thulium fiber laser (TFL) with dual DJ stenting in adult duplex ureteroceles remains rare.
Case Presentation: A 23-year-old female presented in a tertiary care hospital with intermittent right flank pain and recurrent UTIs for 3 months.
Low-temperature plasma efficiently promotes blood coagulation with less thermal injury in porcine models.

How to maintain the efficacy of blood coagulation while minimizing thermal damage has been a significant challenge in the optimization of clinical electrosurgical units (ESUs). Recent studies have reported that reactive species produced by low-temperature plasma (LTP) can promote blood coagulation. In this study, two forms of home-made atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) were compared to argon plasma coagulation (APC) and utilized in three different porcine bleeding models.

Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.
Background: Subnormothermic machine perfusion shows promise as a viable alternative to static cold storage for prolonged preservation of vascularized composite allografts. To date, most studies have been conducted in nonprimate models, and we report its first utilization in a cynomolgus forearm preclinical model for 24-h preservation.
Methods: Forearms were procured from nonhuman primates weighing between 5 and 8 kg.

Introduction: Horner syndrome, a rare complication of pediatric adenotonsillectomy, results from oculosympathetic pathway disruption near the vulnerable superior cervical ganglion. Only 15 cases are documented, highlighting its exceptional rarity but significant clinical relevance.
Case Presentation: A 7-year-old girl underwent routine adenotonsillectomy for recurrent tonsillitis and sleep-disordered breathing, utilizing cold steel dissection and bipolar cautery for hemostasis.
The effect of leukoreduction and prolonged storage on coagulation in cold-stored whole blood: An in vitro study.
Vox Sang
September 2025
Finnish Red Cross Blood Service, Vantaa, Finland.
Background And Objectives: Cold-stored whole blood (CSWB) for haemodynamically unstable bleeding patients is especially convenient when platelets are otherwise unavailable and simple logistics are favoured, as in prehospital situations. Storage times exceeding the currently common 21 days would be beneficial in situations where normal blood processing and distribution is disturbed. To better understand extended-storage CSWB haemostatic properties, we studied leukoreduced CSWB (LR-CSWB) and non-leukoreduced CSWB (non-LR-CSWB) for 5 weeks of cold storage.
