Objective: This study analyses the anatomy and sensory outcomes of targeted nipple areola complex reinnervation (TNR) in gender-affirming double incision mastectomy with free grafting (FNG). Background: TNR is a novel technique to preserve reconstruct intercostal nerves (ICN) improve postoperative sensation. There little evidence on relevant outcomes. Methods: 25 patients were prospectively enrolled. Data included demographics, surgical technique, axon/fascicle counts. Quantitative...
The locus coeruleus (LC) has been identified as a site that develops phosphorylated tau pathology earlier than cerebral cortex. We present data using high-resolution postmortem MRI and validated histopathology in controls the earliest Braak (BB) stages (BBI-BBII) LC. ex vivo provides 3D volume (quantitative), while histology reveals specificity severity burden (semi-quantitative). mapped our highly regionally specific LC onto reconstructions of same samples used (n = 11). noted significant...
The authors describe the clinical, histologic, and serologic findings of a patient with necrotizing myositis extraocular muscles in setting antisynthetase syndrome, as well subsequent management. This is first case literature systemic to have associated ophthalmic findings.
Mass lesions within the insular are diagnostically and surgically challenging due to numerous critical cortical, subcortical, vascular structures surrounding region. Two main surgical techniques - transsylvian approach transcortical provide access cortex. Of range of pathologies encountered, abscesses in insula surprisingly rare.A 34-year-old patient was admitted for resection a suspected high-grade glioma dominant hemisphere. A rapid clinical decline prompted emergent neurosurgical...
A 68-year-old man without a medical history developed 2 months of progressive weakness and cervicalgia. Examination showed quadriparesis with T10 sensory level. Spine MRI revealed an expansile intramedullary lesion from obex to T11 peripheral nodular enhancement (Figure, A–D). Brain MRI, body PET/CT, broad serum diagnostics were normal (eTable 1, [links.lww.com/WNL/C653][1]). CSF protein 2,505 mg/dL, 0 cells/μL, glucose 88 cell-free DNA sequencing identified pathogenic variant in TERT...
BACKGROUND: Gender-affirming mastectomy is the most frequently performed procedure in patients transitioning from a woman to man. However, standard surgical approach, intercostal nerves (INC) are transected which may result loss of sensation. Targeted nipple areola complex (NAC) reinnervation (TNR) gender-affirming double incision with free grafts (FNG) aims improve postoperative The TNR technique involves preservation lateral ICN, and coaptation NAC. A comprehensive understanding relevant...
