OBJECTIVES: In-vitro data have shown that cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) enhances the proliferative and migratory properties of cells involved in periodontal wound healing/regeneration, stabilizes the blood clot, reduces the inflammatory response, and facilitates angiogenesis.

Background: The FIGO Working Group (FWG) in Pelvic Floor Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery (2012–2015) established a consensus among international opinion leaders in evaluating current evidence and providing practice recommendations. Objectives: To provide an update of the previous clinical opinion report on conservative and surgical treatment of posterior compartment prolapse. Search strategy: Search of evidence was performed using Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases up to August 2018.

Background: Locking plates are the gold standard for treatment of 3-part humeral head fractures, although major complications range from 9% to 36%. Percutaneous techniques may allow vascular supply preservation, maintenance of fracture hematoma, scarce blood loss. Many configurations with Kirschner wires can be performed, generating confusion on result interpretation. We studied the correlation between system configuration, stability, and clinical results in patients with 3-part humeral head fractures treated with the same fixation system but with 2 different biomechanical constructs.

Background: Arterial vascular anomalies in patients undergoing kidney transplantation (KT) are correlated with a higher incidence of early surgical complications, potentially causing graft loss. Arterial reconstruction allows patients to overcome these surgical challenges, thus minimizing the risk of poor outcomes.
