Recent medical techniques for peripheral nerve repair: Clinico-physiological advantages of artificial nerve guidance conduits
AbstractThis review outlines advanced methods for reconstructing injured peripheral nerve fibers, applying a technology of nerve tubulization with nerve guidance conduits (NGCs), and discusses fundamental and applied prospects for further development of clinical and technological studies to solve this medical problem in young and elderly patients. The current neurosurgical practice includes manipulations on nerve fibers, matching and suturing nerve fiber ends (however, it is important to avoid any tension in the zone of diastasis for a successful nerve regeneration), as well as on allo/autologous nerve grafts. Unfortunatel...

The application of L-PRP in AIDS patients with crural chronic ulcers: A pilot study
Publication date: March 2018 Source:Advances in Medical Sciences, Volume 63, Issue 1 Author(s): Agata Cieslik-Bielecka, Rafał Skowroński, Magdalena Jędrusik-Pawłowska, Marcin Pierchała Nonhealing wounds or skin ulcerations are the result of insufficient repair and destruction of a local healing potential. Opportunistic infections which cause a lot of ulcer complications influence the worsening general condition of patients with AIDS, ultimately leading to death. The chronicity of the condition and poor results of conventional therapy have prompted the search for new methods of treatment. We have examined venous or ar...

Symptomatic congenital Morgagni hernia presenting as a chest pain: a case report
ConclusionMorgagni hernia is a rare form of congenital diaphragmatic hernia. It is commonly found either in the first few hours of life or in the antenatal period. It is less common in adults and is usually diagnosed accidentally in asymptomatic patients. Symptomatic adult cases are extremely rare. Respiratory symptoms are the most common presenting symptoms. The primary management for both symptomatic and incidentally discovered asymptomatic cases of Morgagni hernia is surgical correction. Various thoracic and abdominal surgical approaches have been described without a clear consensus on preference for operative repair technique.

Robotic voluminous paraesophageal hernia repair: a case report and review of the literature
ConclusionsVarious reports published in the literature suggested that the robot-assisted approach was effective and was associated with very low postoperative morbidity and was accompanied by satisfactory symptomatic and anatomical radiological outcomes during a follow-up period.The robotic approach to paraesophageal repair is safe and effective with low complication rates. With increased experience, the operative time, length of stay, and complications decrease without compromising surgical principles.

Aesthetic outcomes after surgical repair of pectus excavatum in females: Differences between patients and professional evaluators.
CONCLUSIONS: Surgical correction of pectus excavatum in female patients positively influences body perception and psychological well-being. It should therefore not be considered as a merely aesthetic correction, but as an important procedure to restore a patient's self-perception.

Medical Training and Errors: Competence, Culture, Caring, and Character
Medical trainees will inevitably make errors as they learn. Errors should be minimized by a stronger focus on competence through better supervision and increased opportunities for simulation, as well as by reinforcing a culture that supports open identification of errors, disclosing errors to patients and families, and that focuses on prevention through quality improvement. Yet, errors are also opportunities for education and remediation. Medicine’s duty of care includes care for those harmed through errors and should also include care for those who have made the error. Errors that cause harm to patients challenge traine...

Education unions call for urgent action on climate change crisis
NASUWT, NEU, UCU and UNISON have written to the Secretary of State for Education urging him to take action to ensure climate change education becomes fully embedded in ​the system.
As chair of COP 26 it is essential for the UK to lead by example to bring about the changes needed for a more sustainable future, the education unions urge.
The dire impact of climate change requires an emergency response, including from the education sector, because young people have most to lose from the current lack of direction, say the four unions.
They say there is concern the government has yet to grasp the gravity of the situat...

Analysis of Strengths in Exposure to Cases During Plastic and Orthopaedic Hand Surgery Fellowships
This study compares case volumes reported during plastic surgery and orthopaedic hand surgery fellowships.METHODS: The American Council for Graduate Medical Education case logs of accredited hand surgery fellowships were analyzed for hand surgery cases (2012 to 2013 to 2020 to 2021). The reported case volume was compared by specialty. Temporal trends were described, intrapathway variabilities calculated, and interpathway differences calculated with Student t-tests.RESULTS: Two hundred plastic surgery (13%) and 1,323 orthopaedic (87%) hand surgery fellows were included. The number of orthopaedic hand surgery fellowships inc...

Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection of Abdominal Wall after Lipoabdominoplasty: Complication following Medical Tourism
We present a case study of a 48-year-old woman diagnosed with NSTI of the abdominal wall following liposuction, abdominoplasty, and ventral hernia repair performed in Latin America. In the operating room, bowel perforation at the hepatic flexure was observed requiring emergent fascial debridement, bowel resection, and broad-spectrum antibiotics. She required multiple washouts and split-thickness skin grafts. Complications such as NSTI are possible after lipoabdominoplasty and are prevalent in cosmetic medical tourism, due, in part, to varying institutional standards and accreditations, and in some cases lack of consistent ...
