Compared with traditional soft tissue wound closure methods such as sutures and staplers, bioadhesives have significant advantages in terms of tissue compatibility, ease of use, and wound adaptability, making them a hot topic among current wound repair materials. This study aimed to select polyurethane materials with good biocompatibility and high mechanical strength, optimize the prepolymer formula, develop new curing agents, and obtain a new dual-component polyurethane bioadhesive. Furthermore, key research will be conducted on its mechanical properties and tissue adhesion performance. The results show that through the optimization of prepolymer formulations and the development of novel curing agents, a dual-component polyurethane bioadhesive with good biocompatibility, flexibility, and high adhesive strength was obtained. This adhesive can quickly and effectively bond common soft tissue (skin, muscle) traumatic wounds, with an adhesive strength of up to 72 kPa. This adhesive matches well with the mechanical properties of soft tissues and safely and tightly adheres to the surface of soft tissues. Additionally, this dual-component polyurethane adhesive holds promise for repairing other soft tissues, such as the lungs and intestines, with broad application prospects.

BACKGROUND Morel-Lavallee lesions (MLLs) are uncommon, closed soft-tissue degloving injuries caused by high-energy trauma that are often missed due to their rarity and delayed presentation, resulting in serious complications. MLLs are particularly missed and underreported in pediatric and adolescent patients. We describe the case of an adolescent MLL occurring in an atypical lesion site at the calf to increase awareness of this diagnosis and associated presentation in this patient group, which can differ from adult presentation and contribute to diagnostic uncertainty that consequently impacts clinical decision-making.

DOTANOC avidity is a well-known feature of head and neck paragangliomas, detected using 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT due to their high somatostatin receptor expression. However, other hyper vascular tumours can also show increased tracer uptake, requiring further evaluation. We present a case of DOTANOC avid soft tissue mass in the right posterior cervical triangle on 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT, initially suspected to be a paraganglioma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have improved progression and overall survival in patients progressing on sorafenib therapy. But activation of the immune system can lead to numerous immune-related adverse events.

Jockeys endure considerable physical and psychological demands, rendering them vulnerable to occupational injuries such as fractures, concussions, and soft tissue damage. This descriptive case series presents the medical and occupational histories of three professional jockeys with long-term disabilities following work-related accidents. Each individual commenced their jockey career in early adolescence.
