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
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.

Radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia using a linear accelerator with BrainLab system: report on initial experience in Lausanne, Switzerland [PDF]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Radiosurgery is an effective treatment for trigeminal neuralgia (TN) with minimal complications. Most experience is based on gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) and to a lesser extent on linear accelerators.

ABSTRACT Background Facial paralysis rehabilitation has progressed substantially over the past two decades, yet the scientific landscape of this field remains highly fragmented across surgical, neurological, and rehabilitation disciplines. Despite growing clinical and technological advances—including neuromuscular retraining, chemodenervation ...

Spontaneous Meckel\u2032s cave hematoma: A rare cause of trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Background: The most common etiology of classic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is vascular compression. However, other causes must be considered. Among these, spontaneous hematoma of the Meckel\u2032s cave (MC) causing symptomatic TN is very rare.

ABSTRACT Background The widespread use of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers has been accompanied by an increase in vascular complications, including ischemia and cutaneous necrosis. Although uncommon, filler‐induced vascular compromise represents one of the most severe adverse events in aesthetic medicine and requires immediate recognition and ...

Efficacy of primary microvascular decompression versus subsequent microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
OBJECTIVETrigeminal neuralgia (TN) is characterized by intermittent, paroxysmal, and lancinating pain along the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Microvascular decompression (MVD) directly addresses compression of the trigeminal nerve. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patients undergoing MVD as their first surgical intervention ...

Efficacy and Safety of Repeated Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation on Trigeminal Neuralgia Patients
ABSTRACT Background Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a pain condition characterized by paroxysmal, electric shock‐like facial pain, affecting one or more areas of the branches. Approximately 33%–50% of patients require invasive treatment. Radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFTC) is an established method for managing drug‐resistant and chronic TN. This study

Abstract figure legend Recent work has shown that treating the reduction in heart function following acute spinal cord injury (SCI) better optimizes peripheral haemodynamics and spinal cord oxygenation than the standard approach of using vasopressors.
