Article Abstract
Aim: To evaluate microcirculatory changes in neighboring parenchyma as a result of pressure due to chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) in early and late periods after hematoma drainage.
Material And Methods: The subject group consisted of 25 patients who underwent CSDH drainage. Brain diffusion and perfusion magnetic resonance images (MRIs) were obtained preoperatively, and at 48 hours (early period) and 2 months (late period) postoperatively. Measurements were performed on 1 cm2 regions of interest (ROI) in the neighboring parenchymal tissue.
Results: The early postoperative diffusion values showed improvement compared to the preoperative values. The late postoperative values showed improvement compared to the preoperative and early postoperative values. The early postoperative perfusion values showed slight decline compared to the preoperative values. However, the late postoperative values showed improvement compared to the preoperative and early postoperative values.
Conclusion: The fact that there was an increase in diffusion values from early to late postoperative periods, compared with the preoperative period, indicates that the beneficial effects of surgery increase over time. Brain perfusion was found to be slightly decreased in early postoperative period. Following CSDH drainage, neurological deteriorations are observed in some patients in the early postoperative periods; a slight impairment in perfusion may account for this. However, during the late postoperative period, perfusion was seen to recover prominently.

Transplantation-mediated alloimmune thrombocytopenia following liver transplantation from a donor with ITP: a case report and review of the literature.

Adult Hematology, Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Section, Oncology Center, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Objectives: To describe a rare case of transplantation-mediated alloimmune thrombocytopenia (TMAT) following liver transplantation from a donor with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and to contextualize findings within the literature.
Methods: We reviewed the clinical course of a 63-year-old man with hepatitis C cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation from a donor with severe thrombocytopenia consistent with ITP. Clinical, laboratory, and bone marrow findings were analyzed, and alternative causes of thrombocytopenia were excluded.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the functional and radiological outcomes, complications and procedure survival in patients with posttraumatic tibial plateau deformities treated with unicondylar intra-articular tibial plateau osteotomy (UIATPO), comparing medial and lateral approaches.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on all patients with posttraumatic intra-articular tibial plateau deformities who underwent surgical correction at a single centre between 2016 and 2022, with a minimum follow-up of 24 months. Patient characteristics, radiological correction, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), including the Lysholm and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS), and complications were recorded.

Purpose: Robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA) has demonstrated several advantages over manual TKA (mTKA), including enhanced early recovery. Reduced soft tissue trauma and avoidance of femoral intramedullary canal opening have been hypothesised to lower the systemic inflammatory response. However, findings from previous small-cohort studies have been inconsistent.
