Abstract Background There are data on the safety of cancer surgery and efficacy preventive strategies prevention postoperative symptomatic COVID-19 in these patients. But there is little such for any elective surgery. The main objectives this study were to examine bariatric (BS) during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic determine perioperative protective rates.

Abstract Background There is a paucity of data comparing 30-day morbidity and mortality sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), one anastomosis (OAGB). This study aimed to compare the safety SG, RYGB, OAGB in propensity score-matched cohorts. Materials methods analysis utilised collected from GENEVA which was multicentre observational cohort bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) 185 centres across 42 countries between 01/05/2022 31/10/2020 during Coronavirus Disease-2019...
Restarting elective services presents a challenge to restore and improve many of the planned patient care pathways which have been suspended during response COVID-19 pandemic. A significant backlog work has built up representing considerable volume need. We aimed investigate health status, quality life, impact delay for patients whose referrals treatment symptomatic joint arthritis had delayed as result COVID-19.We interviewed 111 referred our outpatient service first appointments cancelled...
Background: Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) remains an excellent treatment option for end-stage osteoarthritis. Questions remain regarding the superiority of either fixed- or mobile-bearing implants because equipoise in literature and a paucity long-term follow-up. We present results Salto TAA, aiming to add longer-term follow-up this TAA investigate survivorship patient satisfaction with implant. Methods: was performed 91 consecutive ankles (87 patients) independent, prospective,...

This would identify at-risk groups aid...
The incidence of open tibia/fibula fractures in the elderly is increasing, but current national guidelines focus on aggressive treatment high-energy injuries younger patients. There conflicting evidence regarding whether older age affects provision and outcomes fractures. aim this study was to determine if patients are sustaining a different injury how their differ. This may have implications for future verify application elderly. In retrospective single centre cohort (December 2015-July...

Seven models for tendon repair simulation (urinary catheter, liquorice, fishing lure, dental rolls, drinking straw, silicone sealant and the authors' modification of with Micropore™ tape) were assessed their performance in a number domains. The surgical tape model scored highest overall each individual domain. This was significantly higher than all other exception alone. lowest scoring straw model.

Abstract Aim Junctional injuries occur at the join of anatomically distinct zones. Recent battlefield casualties have shown junctional wounds account for 21% potentially survivable deaths from haemorrhage. Although well studied in military literature, this is not case civilian setting. This paper aims to describe injury pattern improve management and resource allocation. Method Retrospective study all patients with penetrating a zone presenting an urban MTC 2018. Patient records searched...
Abstract Background Junctional injuries occur at the join of ‘anatomically distinct zones’. The emergence junctional in trauma care has been a consequence recent battlefield casualties; accounting for 21% potentially survivable deaths from haemorrhage. Although well described military literature, there are no civilian studies into injuries. This study aims to examine epidemiology and resource burden penetrating Methods Retrospective adult paediatric patients with zone presenting an urban MTC...
