ABSTRACT Introduction End‐stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have a high risk of Acquired Cystic Disease‐associated Renal Cell Carcinoma (ACD‐RCC) due to chronic inflammation and cystic renal atrophy. Although laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (LRN) is standard, massively enlarged kidneys may increase surgical difficulty.

Alkaline Phosphatase and Infantile GM1 Gangliosidosis: A Simple Biomarker for a Complex Disease?
ABSTRACT GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by β‐galactosidase deficiency, characterized by the accumulation of gangliosides in various tissues. Among different GM1 forms (infantile form, late‐infantile and juvenile form, and late‐onset form), the infantile form is the most severe: despite an early clinical onset with rapid ...

Opioids Delay Healing of Spinal Fusion: A Rabbit Posterolateral Lumbar Fusion Model [PDF]
Background Context Opioid use is prevalent in the management of pre- and postoperative pain in patients undergoing spinal fusion. There is evidence that opioids downregulate osteoblasts in vitro, and a previous study found that morphine delays the ...

The biomechanical responses of three lumbar models under both seat angles remain below injury thresholds. However, the occurrence of spondylolysis at a 22° angle poses a higher risk. ABSTRACT Background This study aims to quantify the biomechanical effects of different seat inclinations on the normal and spondylolysis lumbar of pilots under typical ...

Quantitative MRI reveals age‐related degeneration of lumbar intervertebral discs. Axial T2 and T2* relaxation time maps from representative young (15‐month) and old (130‐month) sheep demonstrate substantially higher relaxation times in young discs, particularly within the nucleus pulposus, indicating a well‐hydrated and proteoglycan‐rich matrix.

Oriental Medical Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
Lumbar spinal stenosis results from the progressive combined narrowing of the central spinal canal, the neurorecesses, and the neuroforaminal canals. In the absence of prior surgery, tumor, or infection, the spinal canal may become narrowed by bulging or

Lumbar fusion can cause adjacent vertebral diseases, about 50% of which is spinal stenosis. Our retrospective cohort study demonstrated that concurrent laminotomy decompression of proximal adjacent vertebrae during primary lumbar fusion surgery significantly reduces the incidence of adjacent segment stenosis at 1‐year follow‐up.

Therapy Potential of Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion 360 for Severe Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
Objectives The advent of O‐arm navigation optimized the oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) procedure, allowing the operator to simultaneously perform OLIF and percutaneous posterior pedicle screw implantation without patient position change, thus ...
