Anastomotic Failure Is Not Affected by Anastomotic Technique in Minimally Invasive Two‐Stage Oesophagectomy

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The choice of anastomotic technique in minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO) may influence postoperative morbidity and long‐term outcomes. The primary aim of our study is to determine whether circular (CS) or linear‐stapled (LS) anastomosis is associated with anastomotic complications following MIO.

Gas exchange and pulmonary stress variations during SCUBA and breath‐hold diving in open seawater

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Healthy, trained divers were studied before, during and after diving in open seawater with different techniques. SCUBA divers (diving to 15 or 40 m with air; cycling at depth) and breath‐hold divers (BHDs; sled‐assisted dives to 15, 25 or 40 m) underwent underwater and surface arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling.

Management of patients with a neurovascular conflict involving the optic nerve and a non-diseased intracranial artery: Three cases

Brain and Spine
Introduction: Determining whether a neurovascular conflict (NVC) involving the anterior visual pathway (AVP) and a non-diseased intracranial artery is amenable for microvascular decompression is challenging.

Endoscopic microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm

Asian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2020
Introduction and Objective: Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a condition, characterized by painless, involuntary unilateral tonic or clonic contractions of the facial muscles innervated by the ipsilateral facial nerve. HFS starts with contractions in the orbicularis oculi muscle with subsequent eyelid closure and/or eyebrow elevation, but may ...

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Reconstructing the Post‐Burn Auricle: A Microsurgical Approach Using a Contralateral Free Temporoparietal Fascial Flap and Autologous Costal Cartilage Framework

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Post‐burn auricular defects compromise both aesthetics and facial symmetry, often imposing significant social and psychological burdens that severely diminish patients' quality of life. Scarring in the mastoid region following burns typically exhibits poor elasticity and texture, along with compromised cutaneous blood supply.

When Chronic Pain Clouds Acute Diagnosis: Femoral Shaft Osteonecrosis With Superimposed Pseudomonas Osteomyelitis in a Medically Complex Patient

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In medically complex patients with chronic pain, new or worsening symptoms should prompt careful reassessment. Avascular necrosis, particularly in the setting of prolonged steroid use, may be overlooked due to diagnostic overshadowing. Timely recognition requires multidisciplinary collaboration and vigilance to distinguish acute pathology from

Key-hole dual-mirror combined microvascular decompression for the treatment of hemifacial spasm

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery
Objective: Microvascular decompression is the main operative method to treat hemifascial spasm. In this study we aimed to explore the effect and safety of key-hole dual-mirror combined microvascular decompression for the treatment of hemifacial spasm ...

Early‐Onset Medullocervical Low‐Grade Glioma With FGFR1 Mutation and Leptomeningeal Spread in an Infant: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pediatric low‐grade gliomas (PLGGs) are generally slow‐growing tumors associated with favorable long‐term outcomes. However, their occurrence in early infancy is rare, particularly when arising in the posterior fossa with extensive dissemination and hydrocephalus.

Quantitative Sensory Testing Identifies Altered Thermal and Pain Processing in Trigeminal Neuralgia

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 6, June 2026.
DFNS‐based quantitative sensory testing (QST) and sensory phenotyping were performed on the most affected trigeminal division in 65 patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN). In the overall cohort, QST revealed bilateral thermal hypoesthesia and bilateral pain hyperalgesia, with mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia being the most frequent sensory ...
