Jul 5th, 2020 - Heterotopic ossification (HO) is defined as ectopic bone formation around joints and in soft tissues following trauma, particularly blast-related extremity injuries, thermal injuries, central nerve injuries, or orthopaedic surgeries, leading to in...

Jun 25th, 2020 - Stray energy transfer from surgical monopolar radiofrequency energy instruments can cause unintended thermal injuries during laparoscopic surgery. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery transfers more stray energy than traditional laparoscopic surge...

Jun 19th, 2020 - While high-velocity missile injury (gunshot) is associated with kinetic and thermal injuries, non-missile penetrating head injury (NMPHI) results in primary damage along the tract of the piercing object that can be associated with significant seco...

Dec 19th, 2019 - Thermolesions are a dangerous complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. We aimed to assess the reasons for thermolesions and the effect of esophageal position on recurrences. The study included consecutive patients undergoing AF catheter ...

Aug 26th, 2019 - Multiple surgical procedures required by patients with extensive thermal injuries impedes delivery of adequate nutrition support, leading to caloric deficits, weight loss, delayed wound healing, and increased length of stay. The standard practice ...
