Macroscopic comparison of open Metzenbaum and ultrasound‐guided fasciotomy techniques for surgical treatment of the hindlimb proximal suspensory ligament desmopathy in horses: A cadaveric anatomical study

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To macroscopically characterize and compare the open Metzenbaum (FOM) and ultrasound‐guided (FUG) plantar fasciotomy techniques for decompression of the hindlimb proximal suspensory ligament (PSL), and to determine whether either approach induces intraligamentous splitting (ILS). Study design Cadaveric experimental study.

Real‐time monitoring of seroma changes during breast cancer radiotherapy using Cherenkov imaging: A technical note

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Background Seroma formation after breast‐conserving surgery is a common postoperative occurrence that can significantly affect the accuracy of radiation therapy. Variations in seroma size and shape during treatment introduce uncertainties in dose delivery, potentially compromising target coverage and increasing exposure to healthy tissue ...

Case Report: Flap Management in Cochlear Implant to Avoid Magnet Retention Difficulties

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study presents a surgical technique for positioning the cochlear implant receiver coil above the temporal muscle, avoiding tissue resections and ensuring proper magnetic retention postoperatively. Preoperative assessment of flap thickness is crucial to prevent magnetic coupling issues and reduce long‐term complications.

Boost Approaches in Patients Undergoing Postoperative Radiotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, Volume 133, Issue 6, Page 773-784, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of breast conservation surgery for early‐stage breast cancer is common, and adjuvant radiotherapy is often recommended to reduce the risk of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence. Historical trials have used sequential boost techniques with favorable outcomes with reduction in local recurrence and acceptable cosmetic outcomes.

T2$$ {\boldsymbol{T}}_{\mathbf{2}} $$‐Weighted Imaging of Water, Fat and Silicone

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2765-2775, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a sensitive method for assessing silicone implant integrity, with T2$$ {T}_2 $$‐weighted imaging being essential for detecting abnormalities in surrounding tissue. Silicone breast imaging protocols often require multiple tailored sequences for species suppression and diagnostic contrast. We propose a

Autogenous Lateral Saphenous Vein and Fascia Lata Grafts Used in the Repair of Ureteral Defects in Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Autologous grafts using lateral saphenous vein demonstrated effective ureteral reconstruction in canine cadavers, with shorter procedural times and fewer complications than fascia lata grafts. Leakage and handling issues limited the performance of fascia lata prostheses.

Fluorescent Light Energy in Feline Surgical and Traumatic Wounds: A Prospective Single‐Arm Pilot Study of Healing Progression and Bacterial Findings

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Fluorescent light energy (FLE) is a safe and well‐tolerated strategy for feline wound management. In this study, its use resulted in a 73% improvement in TIME healing scores within 14 days. Notably, FLE significantly reduced inflammation and necrosis, even in wounds colonized by multidrug‐resistant bacteria.

Cystic cervical thymoma in a cat

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 12‐year‐old, female, neutered Persian cat was presented with a 4‐month history of a progressively enlarging, soft, fluctuating, ventral cervical mass that intermittently caused dysphagia and coughing. Repeated aspiration temporarily reduced the swelling.
