Article Abstract

We describe a novel technique in which a guide wire is used for the placement of a decompression tube in patients with large odontogenic cysts involving crucial structures. This technique facilitates precise placement of the tube, rather than blindly positioning it within the space.

ObjectiveTo determine the effectiveness of bilateral decompression combined with a unilateral transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion approach in centralizing a lordotic cage and preventing contralateral radiculopathy by ensuring equal foraminal elevation.MethodsThis is a retrospective cohort study based on clinical records and radiological data. Eighty-seven patients diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis at L3-S1 levels underwent bilateral decompression and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion between 2017 and 2022.

Pediatric Transcatheter Atrial Septal Stent Removal Following ECMO Support Including Use of Novel Retrieval Device.

Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Department of Pediatrics, Congenital Heart Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, USA.

Left atrial (LA) decompression is often performed in patients on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to help offload the left ventricle. Atrial septal stents may be used to ensure the adequacy of LA decompression; however, if there is cardiopulmonary recovery and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support is no longer needed, the stents require removal. We describe 3 pediatric patients who required venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support and atrial septal stent placement who underwent successful transcatheter removal of the stents after cardiac recovery.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate whether preoperative computed tomography (CT)-based morphological parameters predict the clinical success of self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) in malignant colorectal obstruction.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-six patients with acute malignant colonic obstruction who underwent SEMS placement between 2016 and 2021 were retrospectively analysed. Tumour length, wall thickness, and lumen diameter were measured on preoperative CT, and ratios with SEMS dimensions were calculated.

Background: Decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC) can improve outcome in patients with elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) refractory to medical therapy. However, this transition point for treating refractory ICPs with DHC is unclear as ICPs can often be controlled with escalating doses of medical management. A more individualized and precise way to monitor and define medically "refractory ICP" may be achieved with the utilization of a quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) parameter called burst suppression ratio (BSR).
