Utility of White Light Scanning as an alternative to computed tomography to evaluate severity of pectus excavatum deformity
Pectus excavatum (PE) severity and surgical candidacy are determined by computed tomography (CT)-delineated Haller Index (HI) and Correction Index (CI). White Light Scan (WLS) has been proposed as a non-ionizing alternative. The purpose of this retrospective study is to create models to determine PE severity using WLS as a non-ionizing alternative to CT. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Surgery)

Orthopedic surgeons' transition into full-time practice over the last 20 years: an analysis using Ministry of Health billing data
CONCLUSION: The Ontario health care system has not expanded to support more orthopedic surgeons despite the aging and growing population; despite our growing population, the number of surgeons being trained and retained has not matched this growth. Further research needs to be done to guide optimal health human resource decision-making.PMID:38670580 | PMC:PMC11052579 | DOI:10.1503/cjs.002623 (Source: Canadian Journal of Surgery)

Geographic variation in breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomy for females with breast cancer in Alberta, Canada
CONCLUSION: We found an overall postmastectomy rate of breast reconstruction of 11.9%, and we identified geographic variation. Predictors of reconstruction in Alberta were similar to those previously described in the literature, specifically with patients in rural communities having lower rates of reconstruction than their urban counterparts. These results suggest that further interventions are required to identify the specific barriers to reconstruction within rural communities and to create strategies to ensure equitable access to all residents.PMID:38670581 | PMC:PMC11052580 | DOI:10.1503/cjs.003823 (Source: Canadian Journal of Surgery)

Isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection with concomitant vascular aberrancy: Extremely rare cases and clinical implications
CONCLUSION: Vascular aberrancy may be a new identified risk factor for ISMAD. Even in ISMAD cases with vascular aberrancy, conservative treatment still can be used as first line therapy.PMID:38664953 | DOI:10.1177/17085381241251426 (Source: Vascular)

Renal artery occlusion in a young woman - a tale of mysterious thrombosis
CONCLUSION: Renal artery thrombosis in young people is extremely rare and presents a diagnostic and management challenge requiring input from multiple teams including nephrology, rheumatology, paediatrics and vascular surgery. Systemic coagulopathy and vasculitis are differentials against anatomical aetiologies such as fibromuscular dysplasia. Our case adds to the limited literature regarding this in the young population. Renal artery thrombosis with occlusion in young people is very rare and is most often associated with a systemic coagulopathic disorder, such as antiphospholipid syndrome or structural pathology of the re...

Clinician perspectives regarding CYP2C19 genotype testing in patients with critical limb ischemia: A Delphi approach
CONCLUSIONS: PAD interventionalists practicing at an academic health system recognize the heterogenous response of their patients to clopidogrel therapy but are unsure when to leverage genetic testing to improve outcomes for their patients. Our study identified gaps regarding PAD interventionalists' knowledge, perceived barriers, and attitudes toward CYP2C19 testing in PAD. This information highlights the need for randomized data on genetic testing for clopidogrel responsiveness in peripheral vascular disease following intervention to help guide antiplatelet management.PMID:38669051 | DOI:10.1177/17085381241246318 (Source: Vascular)

Geometric Analysis of the Gore Excluder Conformable Endoprosthesis in the Infrarenal Aortic Neck: One Year Results of the EXCeL Registry
CONCLUSION: In most patients, the CEXC was implanted close to the renal arteries, and sufficient (≥ 10 mm) post-operative apposition was acquired at 30 days, which slightly increased at one year. Post-operative endograft tilt was relatively low, and aortic geometry remained unchanged after implantation of the CEXC, probably due to its high conformability.PMID:38670221 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2024.04.026 (Source: PubMed: Eur J Vasc Endovasc ...)
