Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective therapeutic intervention for patients with obesity, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) being commonly performed primary MBS procedure. Long-term studies have demonstrated that 15-20% of require revisional (RBS) due to weight-related issues or surgical complications. Despite gold standard laparoscopic revision, there are other available approaches such as open robotic-assisted. An extensive literature review was articles from their inception...
Abstract: Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common orthopedic procedure driven by factors such as an aging population, rising obesity rates, and surgical advancements. Despite improved venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis, eradication remains challenging, necessitating personalized prevention strategies. This study aims to identify predictors of VTE following TKA. Methods: A retrospective analysis the American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program...
Introduction:The concept of same-day discharge has garnered increasing significance within orthopedic surgery, particularly in hip and knee procedures. Despite initial concerns surrounding the absence prolonged hospital care, a burgeoning body evidence highlights numerous advantages associated with discharge, ranging from mitigating in-hospital infections to offering substantial financial psychosocial benefits for both patients healthcare providers. In this study, we aim scrutinize trends...
Introduction: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a well-known contributor to morbidity after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Considerable efforts have been invested in reducing PE occurrence through pharmacological and perioperative interventions. Nonetheless, the effectiveness of these strategies incidence overall mortality associated with pulmonary events remains matter debate. Therefore, identifying risky patients has gaining importance. Methods: We utilised data from National Surgical Quality...
Abstract Introduction Bariatric surgery revisions and emergencies are associated with higher morbidity mortality compared to primary bariatric surgery. No formal outcome benchmarks exist that distinguish MBSAQIP-accredited centers in the community from unaccredited institutions. Methods A retrospective chart review was conducted on 53 61 surgical by a single surgeon at high-volume hospital accredited program 2018 2020. Primary outcomes were complications or deaths occurring within 30-days of...
Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective intervention for weight loss leading to significant resolution of obesity-related medical conditions. Recent literature has demonstrated risk reduction certain cancer types after MBS. Studies have shown an overall in hormonal cancer, such as breast endometrial cancer. However, association between incidence various non-hormonal esophageal, gastric, liver, gallbladder, colorectal, pancreatic kidney remains contested. The aim this...
<title>Abstract</title> Introduction: Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) is increasingly common, with sepsis being a serious but rare complication. Sepsis rates in rTHA vary widely, and understanding risk factors crucial for improving outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the incidence of following identify preoperative intraoperative predictors. Methods: A retrospective observational using ACS NSQIP database analyzed 12,966 patients (2016–2021). Predictors were identified through...

Introduction Unplanned reoperations (UROs) following corrective surgery for adult spinal deformity (ASD) present significant challenges both patients and surgeons. Understanding the specific UROs types is crucial improving patient outcomes refining surgical strategies in ASD correction. Method This retrospective analysis utilized data from American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) database spanning 2017 to 2021. Patient information was extracted...
