Abstract:
... A case is presented of a 1‐year‐old Persian cat with a corneal sequestrum treated with a bidirectional corneoconjunctival transposition. The size of this lesion precluded use of a traditional corneoconjunctival transposition. At the time of writing, the patient maintained a clear visual axis with minimal scarring and no recurrence 6 months post‐operatively. This report describes a novel surgical t ...

Abstract:
... Late complications in ascending aortic surgeries are uncommon and may occur by infectious processes, usually caused by gram positive bacteria. We report a case of aortic prosthesis infection by Porphyromonas pogonae, an anaerobic gram-negative coccobacillus that can grow under microaerobic conditions, three years after ascending aortic reconstruction surgery. ...

Abstract:
... Near infrared fluorescence guided surgery (NIRFGS) offers better distinction between cancerous and normal tissues compared to surgeries relying on a surgeon’s senses of sight and touch. Because of the greater accuracy in determining tumor tissue margins, NIRFGS within clinics continues to grow. However, NIRFGS lacks standardization of the indocyanine green (ICG) dose and the preoperative period al ...
