IntroductionTumor complexity scoring supports preoperative planning for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), but evidence in larger tumors is limited. We evaluated whether PADUA and RENAL nephrometry scores are ass...

Abstract Objective The purpose of the study was to investigate the hemostatic effect of local application of 10 units hemocoagulase bothrops atrox for injection (HBA)during the perioperative period of primary total hip a...

BackgroundPerioperative hypothermia is common during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a noninvasive ne...

Background: While the S-enantiomer of Ketamine (S-Ketamine) is described to be more potent than the racemic form (Ra-Ketamine), with a shorter half-life and almost no side effects, both forms have never been compared in ...

Caring for kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) requires specialized knowledge in areas as varied as nephrology, immunology, pharmacology, endocrinology, infectious disease, and cardiology. In this context of increasing c...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains the dominant histologic subtype of primary liver cancer and a major cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Its epidemiology continues to evolve, with metabolic dysfunction-associated ...

Opioid-free Anaesthesia (OFA) for craniotomy is a method employed increasingly for intraoperative and postoperative pain management with reduced opioid side-effects. Standard opioid regimens, although best for analgesia,...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Myocardial injury after non‐cardiac surgery (MINS) is a significant postoperative complication. In 2022, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) updated its guidelines, recommending periop...

Background and aimCardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with a high rate of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). Mechanical power (MP) represents energy per breath multiplied by re...

Abstract Background Cardiac catheterizations in horses are mainly performed in the right heart, as access to the left heart traditionally requires an arterial approach. Transseptal puncture (TSP) has been adapted for hor...

Abstract Background and objective Surgery is a well-known trigger of Diabetes Ketoacidosis, DKA. Post-surgical DKA is poorly studied in the current literature. This study investigated post-surgical DKA association with p...

Hip fractures in the elderly represent a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. A considerable proportion of these patients are on antiplatelet medications, such as aspirin (Ecospirin) and clopidogrel (Clopitab), ...

ObjectiveTo compare the effects of routine and enhanced intraoperative warming strategies on perioperative hypothermia, coagulation function, and length of hospital stay in severely injured emergency surgery patients.Met...

Abstract Background Adrenaline is an emergency medication used in critical situations. However data on its early adverse events after intravenous injection are limited. Therefore, the goal of this study is to describe th...

Abstract Background Safe anesthesia is fundamental to safe surgery and depends on facility readiness, team behaviors, and consistent adherence to safety standards such as the World Health Organization (WHO) Surgical Safe...

Abstract Background Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) confers a markedly increased lifetime risk of breast and ovarian cancers. As no effective surveillance method for early detection of ovarian cancer has been...

IntroductionGouty tophi are chronic inflammatory nodules resulting from monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition, often leading to joint deformity, skin ulceration, and functional impairment. Surgical management remains...

Abstract Background Outcomes after curative-intent sarcoma surgery vary substantially and are incompletely explained by tumor-centered factors alone. Although CT-based body composition metrics provide objective host-rela...

BackgroundTraditional perioperative metrics such as complication rates and length of stay (LOS) are fragmented and fail to capture the “ideal” recovery trajectory. “Textbook outcome” (TO) has emerged as a composi...
