Article Abstract
There is currently a shift toward using transverse osteotomies of the metatarsal neck for percutaneous or minimally invasive correction of hallux valgus (HV) deformity due to potential advantages over chevron osteotomies. Minimally invasive HV correction has also become more popular with more studies showing benefits of reduced pain with similar clinical outcomes compared to open techniques. This article reviews the evolution of minimally invasive HV surgery and the benefits of transverse osteotomies for correcting all types of HV deformity.

Fibrin Sealant-Assisted Fixation of an Autologous Iliac Bone Graft in Orbital Floor Reconstruction.
J Craniofac Surg

Orbital floor fractures can lead to enophthalmos and diplopia, often requiring surgical intervention to restore orbital volume. Autologous iliac bone grafts are commonly used due to their biocompatibility and mechanical stability, but achieving adequate fixation remains a challenge. Traditional fixation methods, such as plates and screws, may introduce risks of foreign body reactions, graft displacement, and surgical morbidity.

Topic: The aim of this study was to assess the meta-analysis of the studies comparing transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) to classical photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) (mechanical or alcohol-assisted).
Clinical Relevance: While PRK is a well-established procedure, TransPRK, a newer, minimally invasive technique may reduce surgery time and improve patient outcomes. Comparing these techniques helps optimize surgical choices.
Minimally invasive and standardized thoracoscopic surgery for stage III empyema using a variable-view rigid endoscope.

Thoracoscopic surgery for stage III acute empyema is often limited by poor visualization and anatomical complexity. We developed a standardized, minimally invasive approach using a variable-view rigid endoscope and fixed port placement, regardless of disease extent or patient physique. The variable-view endoscope enabled a wide, adjustable field of view without moving the camera shaft, allowing safe access even in the confined thoracic space.

Background: Precise preoperative discrimination of invasive lung adenocarcinoma (IA) from preinvasive lesions (adenocarcinoma in situ [AIS]/minimally invasive adenocarcinoma [MIA]) and prediction of high-risk histopathological features are critical for optimizing resection strategies in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
Methods: In this multicenter study, 813 LUAD patients (tumors ≤3 cm) formed the training cohort. A total of 1,709 radiomic features were extracted from the PET/CT images.
Tumor-phrenic nerve spatial relationship and intraoperative traction-induced injury during mediastinal tumor resection: implications for real-time protective strategies.
Int J Surg

Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.
Background: Phrenic nerve injury during mediastinal tumor resection can lead to significant postoperative diaphragmatic dysfunction. Current intraoperative protection techniques are imprecise and lack real-time feedback. We aimed to develop and validate a quantifiable, multimodal neuroprotective strategy.
