What is the difference in morphologic features of the lumbar vertebrae between Caucasian and Taiwanese subjects? A CT-based study: implications of pedicle screw placement via Roy-Camille or Weinstein method

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Safe placement of pedicle screws without jeopardizing neurovascular structures medially and anteriorly is important during spine surgery. Inferior breach of pedicle is also dangerous due to low margin of error.

Comparative Use of Double Bipolar Forceps Versus Ultrasound Energy Device in Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) offers excellent cosmetic outcomes and safe access to the central neck without a cervical incision. Traditionally, ultrasonic energy devices have been used for dissection and hemostasis, though these instruments are limited by unilateral use, bulkiness, and greater thermal spread.

Laparoscopic Resection of Caudate Lobe Liver Tumors in Clinical Practice

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The caudate lobe (Couinaud segment I), owing to its deep location in the posterosuperior liver, intimate encirclement by the inferior vena cava (IVC), and close adjacency to the hepatic hilum and major hepatic veins, presents a formidable anatomical challenge for resection.
