Free Mucosal Grafting Is a Simple Adjunct for Rapid Re‐Epithelization in Septal Perforation Repair
In septal perforation repair, a free mucosal graft placed on the contralateral septum to the pedicled mucosal flap can resurface an area vulnerable to crusting and poor healing. Among 90 patients, 92.6% of grafts integrated completely when the perforation was successfully closed and complete perforation closure was the only independent predictor of ...

How to Do a Laparoscopic Iliac Lymph Node Biopsy Under Indocyanine Green (ICG) Guidance
ABSTRACT Isolated abdominal lymphadenopathy can be difficult to diagnose when lesions are inaccessible to percutaneous biopsy. We describe a laparoscopic common iliac lymph node biopsy performed using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence guidance. A 67‐year‐old woman with bilateral lower limb oedema was found to have an FDG‐avid right common iliac ...
