Retrospective analysis of medium-term outcomes following anterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery performed in a tertiary spinal surgical centre
CONCLUSIONS: Our 90-day complication rate of 10% lies within the 2.6% acute complication and 40% overall complications rates described in previous literature. The risk of vascular/visceral injury is significant (3%) and we recommend that ALIF be performed as a dual surgeon procedure with a vascular-trained access surgeon accompanying the spinal surgeon. ALIF is a valid revision surgical option for failed posterior approaches leading to complications such as pseudoarthrosis. In our sample, 89% of patients were managed with posterior fixation to augment the anterior fusion as, biomechanically, this is a proven construct.PMID...

Validation of the emergency surgery score (ESS) in a UK patient population and comparison with NELA scoring: a retrospective multicentre cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: In the UK population, ESS and NELA both predict 30-day mortality and ICU admission with no statistically significant difference but with higher c-statistics for NELA score. Both scores have certain advantages, with ESS being validated for a wider range of outcomes.PMID:38478020 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2023.0105 (Source: Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)

The effect of antiplatelet therapy and oral anticoagulants on the accuracy of faecal immunochemical testing
CONCLUSIONS: FIT accuracy for CRC detection remained unaffected despite more patients testing positive in the exposed group. FIT should be considered a supplementary tool for triage. Antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs do not need to be discontinued before collection of FIT.PMID:38478034 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2024.0015 (Source: Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)

CONCLUSIONS: Carer perceptions towards the use of AI in this setting are positive. However, they are not yet ready to relinquish human decision making to automated systems.PMID:38478040 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2024.0008 (Source: Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)

Postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) is equivalent to perioperative PTH drop in predicting postsurgical hypoparathyroidism
CONCLUSIONS: Day 1 PTH is equivalent to (if not better than) drop in PTH in predicting short- and long-term PoSH. Preoperative PTH measurements may not be needed in the detection and/or management of PoSH after thyroid surgery.PMID:38478048 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2024.0001 (Source: Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)
