Comparison of Three Different Staging Systems Capable of Predicting the Severity of Congenital Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction (LUTO) and Its Prognosis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
The Ruano's proposed prenatal staging system for LUTO seems to offer a more comprehensive stratification of different severities of fetal LUTO as well as a guidance for potential prenatal therapy based on four stages. ABSTRACT Lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) is a rare but severe fetal condition associated with significant morbidity and long‐term

A Qualitative Review of Clinical Decision‐Making Using [99mTc]Tc‐Mercaptoacetyltriglycine Renal Scintigraphy in Patients With Malignant Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This case series evaluated the clinical utility of [99mTc]Tc‐MAG3 renal scintigraphy in managing malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO). Renal scintigraphy‐guided decision‐making allowed safe conservative management in selected patients, particularly those with a non‐functional excretion pattern, and helped avoid unnecessary urinary drainage.

Surgical Management of a Cerebellopontine Angle Tumor After Sudden Onset Facial Paralysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Patients with cerebellopontine angle tumors rarely experience acute facial weakness. In this report, we summarize a case where immediate tumor decompression after a patient presented with sudden ipsilateral flaccid facial palsy resulted in complete recovery of facial nerve function, followed by staged gross total tumor resection. Return of facial nerve

How I Do It: Middle Fossa Approach of Facial Nerve Decompression

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We present a reproducible, stepwise middle fossa approach for facial nerve decompression focused on the labyrinthine segment, geniculate ganglion, and meatal foramen, with consistent anatomical landmarks to preserve hearing. The article and video detail patient setup, safe corridor creation, and retrograde drilling with practical tips to avoid cochlear

Orbital Complications of Acute Rhinosinusitis in Adulthood: Predictors of Outcome and Management

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In a multicenter cohort of 213 adults with orbital complications of acute rhinosinusitis, 68% required surgery and the modified Chandler classification was the strongest predictor of treatment modality. While abscess‐related and type II complications frequently necessitated surgical management, final ophthalmologic outcomes were uniformly favorable ...
