Comparison of menstruation recovery after ultrasound-guided suction curettage in patients with cesarean scar pregnancy pretreated using high-intensity focused ultrasound and uterine artery embolization
CONCLUSION: Compared to UAE, HIFU has less influence on postoperative MBL volume, which may be a fertility-sparing option for patients with CSP.PMID:37698065 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2023.2241686 (Source: International Journal of Hyperthermia)

A Novel Perivesical Fat Rotational Flap as an Alternative to Omental Interposition in Challenging Urological Reconstruction
We aim to introduce the application of the perivesical fat rotational flap as a substitute for omental interposition during several complex urologic reconstruction. We highlight our technique using a case of salvage prostatectomy after initial high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for recurrent high risk prostate cancer requiring future adjuvant radiation treatment. We have also successfully used this technique in the management of recurrent vesicovaginal, colovesical, rectourethral fistulas, and post radiation salvage prostatectomy setting. (Source: Urology)
