Incidence and Risk Factors of Postoperative Urinary Retention After Thyroidectomy: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 907-913, April 2026.
Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication, but its incidence and risk factors after thyroidectomy are not well defined. We investigated the incidence of POUR after thyroidectomy and its risk factors. ABSTRACT Background Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication, but its incidence and risk factors after ...

Fibrosis‐Driven Surgical Risk After Thyroid Nodule Ablation: Quantitative Clinicopathological Determinants of Complications in Post‐Ablative Thyroidectomy—A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 914-923, April 2026.
Thermal ablation is increasingly used for selected benign and low‐risk thyroid nodules, yet some patients still require thyroidectomy for regrowth, persistent symptoms, or new oncologic concern. The surgical and pathological impact of ablation‐induced remodeling remains incompletely defined.

Posterior Auricular Artery as a Landmark to the Facial Nerve During Parotidectomy: A Cadaver Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 3, Page 1264-1270, March 2026.
In this cadaveric study, we examined the anatomical relationship between the main trunk of the facial nerve and its adjacent arterial structures, specifically the posterior auricular artery, stylomastoid artery, and occipital artery. Our findings demonstrated that, in all specimens examined, the posterior auricular artery maintained consistent and ...

A Study of Time to Recovery Following Loss of Neuromonitoring Signal of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve in Thyroid Surgery

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 660-667, March 2026.
Injuries of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) during thyroidectomy although infrequent can lead to major morbidity. Permanent RLN injury is uncommon; however, temporary neurapraxia and loss of signal (LOS) during intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) are seen more frequently. This study aimed to identify factors associated with type I (segmental) and

The Case of a 28‐Year‐Old Woman With Medically Refractory Focal Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 2, Page 418-423, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 28‐year‐old right‐handed woman with medically refractory focal epilepsy. Her seizure semiology and electroencephalography (EEG) indicated a seizure onset zone in the right central‐parietal area. However, both MRI and PET scans were unremarkable, showing no focal lesions or areas of altered metabolism.
