Congenital Valve Procedural Planning Program, Division of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Children's, and Heart, Vascular, and Thoracic Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, USA.
Background: Congenital aortic valvar disease represents a heterogeneous population with suboptimal surgical repair or replacement outcomes. We assess our approach and short-term outcomes in this population using cardiac CT evaluation for personalised surgical planning and execution.
Methods: We assessed patients who underwent aortic valvar surgery from February 2022 to August 2024.

E-Da Hospital, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan.
Background: We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy of using additional obesity management medications (OMMs) within the first year after undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 246 patients who underwent primary LSG in our institution and were followed up for at least 12 months. We collected body weights preoperatively and at three, six, 12, and 24 months postoperatively, along with body composition and laboratory results preoperatively and at 12 months.

Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery, Tongji Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, No.389 Xincun Road, Shanghai, 200092, China.
Background: The integration of digital tools in aesthetic medicine has enhanced the precision of facial feature analysis. Using concepts like the Golden Ratio, these technologies enable more objective assessments of facial proportions and symmetry. The beauty scanner-face analyzer (BS-FA) app offers a digital approach to evaluate geometric proportions and facial alignment, providing valuable data for preoperative planning in plastic surgery and aesthetic treatments.

Department of Spine Surgery, The People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Guangxi, China.
Purpose: This study aims to assess the outcomes of combining oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) with anterolateral screw fixation (ASF) and stress endplate augmentation (SEA) in comparison to OLIF combined with pedicle screw fixation (PSF) for the treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) in patients with osteoporosis (OP).
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with DLSS who underwent OLIF in conjunction with either SEA and ASF (SEA-ASF group) or PSF (PSF group). Clinical outcomes, including the visual analog scale (VAS) scores for lumbar and leg pain, as well as the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), were assessed at various postoperative intervals and compared to preoperative values.

Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Istanbul Medeniyet University, Istanbul, Turkey.
Purpose: This study aimed to report and characterize bilateral renal artery (RA) variations observed during cadaveric dissection and to evaluate these findings in the context of embryological development and morphometric analysis.
Case Presentation: During routine anatomical dissection of an 87-year-old Caucasian male cadaver, bilateral variations in the renal arteries were identified. On the right side, two renal arteries (RRA1 and RRA2) were observed, each giving rise to presegmental and segmental branches.
