Article Abstract
We present a case of tracheal anastomotic dehiscence requiring circumferential tracheal replacement. We developed a novel approach by deploying a silicone stent using a hybrid surgical and endobronchial technique, followed by pectoralis major flap coverage. The patient has remained free from dyspnea 6 months after the operation. Our interdisciplinary approach represents a relatively straightforward solution to tracheal anastomotic dehiscence, one of the most devastating complications in thoracic surgery.

The rupture of the teres major muscle is a well-known condition in sports activities like baseball, hockey, and tennis. There is no real consensus in the literature regarding treatment, with approaches varying between functional and surgical methods. While functional treatment appears to be a viable option, there is a lack of evidence indicating significant improvement in medial rotation strength after aforementioned treatment.

Purpose: We aimed to develop an AI-based system to score the positioning in mammography (MG), with the goal of establishing a foundation for future technical support.
Methods: Using 800 mediolateral oblique (MLO) images, we developed an AI model (Mask Generation Model) for automatic extraction of three regions: the pectoralis major muscle, the mammary gland region, and the nipple. Using this model, we extracted three regions from 1544 MLO images and generated mask images.

Introduction/objectives: Irreparable subscapularis tears can cause severe functional impairment and present significant clinical challenges. Current treatment options include tendon transfers (TTs), anterior capsular reconstruction, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Each approach has distinct biomechanical advantages and limitations, but there remains no consensus regarding the optimal treatment.

Objective: To demonstrate that the feasibility of using the da Vinci robotic XI surgical system for breast reconstruction with pectoralis major fascia instead of latissimus dorsi flaps.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 33 female patients with breast cancer who were treated with robotic nipple sparing mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction with gel implant (RNSMIBR) between September 2022 and June 2024 and met the selection criteria. The surgical techniques employed included the use of a latissimus dorsi muscle flap (LDMF) in seven cases (Group A), a LDMF without skin island in nine cases (Group B) and a pectoralis major fascia in 17 cases (Group C).
