Aortic Pathologies

Over the decades, the Frozen Elephant Trunk (FET) technique has gained immense popularity allowing simplified treatment of complex aortic pathologies. FET is frequently used to treat aortic conditions involving the distal aortic arch and the proximal descending aorta in a single stage. Surgical preference has recently changed from FET procedures being performed at Zone 3 to Zone 2. There are several advantages of Zone 2 FET over Zone 3 FET including reduction in spinal cord injury, visceral ischemia, neurological and cardiovascular sequelae. In addition, Zone 2 FET is a technically less complicated procedure. Literature on the comparison between Zone 3 and Zone 2 FET is scarce and primarily observational and anecdotal. Therefore, further research is warranted in this paradigm to substantiate current surgical treatment options for complex aortic pathologies. In this review, we explore literature surrounding FET and the reasons for the shift in surgical preference from Zone 3 to Zone 2.

Fertility Sparing

The management of adenomyosis remains a great challenge to practicing gynaecologists. Until recently, hysterectomy has been the only definitive treatment in women who have completed child bearing. A number of nonsurgical and minimally invasive, fertility-sparing surgical treatment options have recently been developed. This review focuses on three aspects of management, namely, (1) newly introduced nonsurgical treatments; (2) management strategies of reproductive failures associated with adenomyosis; and (3) surgical approaches to the management of cystic adenomyoma.

Midcarpal instability is a collective term for a number of conditions where the instability of the wrist is predominantly between the proximal and distal carpal rows. It has been regarded as relatively rare and infrequently requires surgical treatment. Palmar midcarpal instability is the most commonly found type of midcarpal instability and can be responsible for causing a clunking and painful wrist. The diagnosis is made on clinical grounds using the midcarpal instability provocative tests. Standard imaging and arthroscopic inspection do not usually confirm a definite diagnosis, but are important in excluding other pathologies. The classification and staging has been described using the extent of palmar translocation of the distal carpal row, which is elicited on passive stress tests. As this is a functional instability, it may be that a functional staging description might be better, and a proposed scheme is described. Treatment options including partial wrist fusions, tenodesis stabilizations and arthroscopic capsular shrinkage have been described in small case series with limited follow-up. There are no comparative series or randomized studies because of the relative rarity of this condition.

Introduction The problem of treating chronic unstable pelvic injuries is characterized by the complexity of delayed one-step or staged reduction, difficulties in choosing the technology and treatment options, complexity of selecting criteria for evaluating planning along with the effectiveness of treatment. The use of spinal systems to perform reduction manipulations and fixation of the pelvis is described in few clinical observations. Therefore, the assessment of the effectiveness of the sequential use of various fixation systems in one patient was regarded by the authors as a rare opportunity and determined the purpose of the study. Purpose Demonstration of the possibilities of various osteosynthesis methods and their combination in reconstructive surgery of the pelvis in a case of its severe chronic injury. Materials and methods We present a clinical case and a brief analysis of the literature. This is a case of a patient with posttraumatic pelvic deformity and imbalance syndrome as a leading component of pelvic ring deformity. The effectiveness of reconstruction options, including those with the use of spinal systems, was analyzed. The treatment was assessed with radiological study methods (X-ray and CT) with balance evaluation on a digital platform and functional scores for the quality of life. Results Correction of frontal deformity of the pelvis was achieved with compensation for a relative shortening of the left lower extremity, restoration of the center of rotation of the hip joints, and relief of pain in the lumbar region. The functional state according to the Majeed score system and clear radiological signs of stabilization of the pelvic ring while maintaining the position of the acetabulum in the frontal plane prove the effectiveness of hybrid osteosynthesis with the use of spinal fixation systems. Conclusion The leading syndromic complexes are instability with clinical manifestations of non-union and pain along with an imbalance syndrome, manifested by a gross deformation of the pelvic ring. Syndromic evaluation determines the tactics of surgical treatment while a detailed planning of the sequence of intervention, choice of the level of osteotomy, combination of osteosynthesis options using spinal fixation systems provide the solution of reconstructive pelvic surgery tasks in one session.
