Acromioclavicular Joint Reconstruction with Double-Bundle Constructs Provide Improved Maintenance of Reduction but Comparable Clinical Outcomes Versus Single-Bundle Constructs
Treatment of acute acromioclavicular (AC) joint separations is dependent on a variety of factors including severity, acuity, patient demographics, activity level, and surgeon preferences. For more severe or unstable separations (Rockwood types IIIB, IV, V, and VI), surgical intervention is typically recommended. Over 160 surgical techniques have been described, but none have emerged as a gold standard. Arthroscopic-assisted or all-arthroscopic fixation of the coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments with suture buttons has become increasingly popular due to lower complication rates compared to more rigid fixation.

Minimally Invasive Management of Complicated and Re-operative Crohn's Disease
This article aims to build on the 2019 Clinics in Colon and Rectal Surgery article on complex Crohn's and MIS by introducing new data in support of these approaches. Decisions for technique should be based on patient characteristics, but minimally invasive techniques have emerged as valid and possibly superior for complex and recurrent disease.

Difficulties and Disparities in Colorectal Cancer End-of-Life Care: A Patient's Story
Clin Colon Rectal Surg DOI: 10.1055/s-0044-1786393Patients with advanced colorectal cancer nearing the end of life require a multidisciplinary approach to address the unique challenges they face. Using a case vignette, we outline the various stages of a patient's journey with advanced rectal cancer and the common obstacles to their care as they interface with the medical system. We highlight how Black persons might be vulnerable to differences in screening, treatment, procedural interventions, end-of-life care, and health care decision-making. The article also addresses how health inequities and barriers relating to concor...

Treatment techniques for rectovaginal fistulas after low rectal resection for deep endometriosis
AbstractEndometriosis is a benign gynecologic affection that may lead to major surgeries, such as colorectal resections. Rectovaginal fistulas (RVF) are among the possible complications. When they occur, it is necessary to adapt the repair surgery as best as possible to limit their functional consequences. This video shows three different techniques for correcting RVF after rectal resection for endometriosis, with a combination of perineal surgery and laparoscopy: a mucosal flap, a transanal transection and single stapled anastomosis (TTSS) and a pull through.Supplementary file1 (MP4 469658 KB) (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)
