Abstract
The advantages of endoscopic shaver adenectomy are safety, accuracy of tissue removal, and low relapse rate. However, there is a lack of information about long-term clinical results of this method in the literature that arose a necessity of conducting such a study. The objective of the study - to consider the clinical efficacy of shaver adenectomy in the long-term observation period after the surgery (12-24 months). The study presents a comparison of the long-term results of endoscopic modified microdebrider adenotomy (EMMA) (a variant of shaver transoral combined adenotomy developed by the authors) in 203 children and the cold blade adenectomy (25 children). Evaluation of the results was carried out according to the survey of parents and clinical examination of children 12-24 months after the surgery. According to the survey, EMMA was 22.02% more effective according to the "restoration of nasal breathing" criterion and by 22.5% by the "frequency of acute respiratory infections" criterion in comparison with the cold blade adenectomy. The implementation of this technique in combination with tympanopuncture in children with secretory otitis on the background of pharyngeal tonsil hypertrophy allows achieving better results in the restoration of auditory function by 16.6%. Endoscopic modified microdebrider adenectomy is an effective and safe method for treating children with adenoid hypertrophy, which, according to the results of a long-term observation, allowed achieving a better level of nasal breathing and reducing the frequency of acute respiratory infections compared with cold blade adenectomy.

Abstract
Background Extended curettage has increasingly become the preferred treatment for giant cell tumour of bone (GCTB), but the high recurrence rate after curettage poses a major challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. Computed tomography (CT) is valuable in the evaluation of GCTB. Our aim was to identify specific features of GCTB around the knee in pre-operative CT images that might have prognostic value for local recurrence. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from 124 patients with primary GCTB around the knee who underwent extended curettage from 2010 through 2019. We collected demographic, clinical, and therapeutic data along with several CT-derived tumour characteristics. CT-derived tumor characteristics included tumour size, the distance between the tumour edge and articular surface (DTA), and destruction of posterior cortical bone (DPC). Akaike information criterion (AIC) was used to select which variables to enter into multivariate logistic regression models and to determine significant factors affecting recurrence. Results The total recurrence rate was 21.0% (26/124), and the average follow-up time was 69.5 ± 31.2 months (24–127 months). Age, DTA (< 2 mm), and DPC were significantly related to recurrence, as determined by multivariate logistic regression. The C-index of the final model was 0.79 (95% CI: 0.71 to 0.88), representing a good model for predicting recurrence. Conclusion Identifying certain features of GCTB around the knee on CT has prognostic value for patients treated with extended curettage. A three-factor model predicts tumour recurrence well after extended curettage. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s00264-021-05260-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treating chronic osteomyelitis of the lower extremities is challenging. The treatment of acute lower limb trauma by orthoplastic teams has shown good results over the past few decades. This study aimed to characterize surgical outcomes of leg and heel chronic osteomyelitis by an orthoplastic team. METHODS The cases of 113 consecutive leg and heel chronic osteomyelitis patients undergoing soft-tissue reconstruction with an orthopedic procedure were reviewed in this retrospective single-center observational study. The main objective was to assess surgical outcomes of skin healing and gait recovery at the 1-year follow-up. The secondary objective was to evaluate the global success rate at the last follow-up. RESULTS The median follow-up was 19.7 months. A free flap was performed for 33 patients (29.2 percent) and a locoregional flap was used in 79 patients (69.9 percent). Seventy-two patients (63.7 percent) had chronic osteomyelitis on continuous bone. The others had a septic pseudarthrosis with a mean bone defect length of 42.9 mm. Forty-four patients (38.9 percent) underwent curettage only, eight (7.1 percent) underwent curettage and cement, 20 (17.7 percent) underwent curettage and bone fixation, and 39 (34.5 percent) underwent the Masquelet technique. At the 1-year follow-up, 72 patients (63.7 percent) had achieved skin healing and had recovered their gait. The success rate at all follow-up time points was 82.3 percent. The median time to achieve skin healing was 6.5 months and that to bone union in cases of septic pseudarthrosis was 7.9 months. CONCLUSION Orthoplastic management of leg and heel chronic osteomyelitis patients with combined soft-tissue reconstruction using an orthopedic procedure was a viable strategy that offered good results even though the time to complete healing was long.

Abstract
Dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN) is a benign skin condition that is primarily reported in skin of color patients. While prevalent, treatment options are limited and the benign course of DPNs may cause them to be overlooked by clinicians. However, large and multiple lesions in cosmetically sensitive areas may be emotionally and socially distressful to patients. There are few literature reviews examining treatment options for this condition. A literature search was performed using PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases. 67 articles were identified and 15 studies met the inclusion criteria. Our findings demonstrate that laser therapy is becoming increasingly utilized as a safe and efficacious treatment for DPNs in skin of color patients.

Abstract
In-transit metastatic melanoma is classified as a regional intralymphatic metastasis of melanoma. Currently, there is no standardized regimen used to treat in-transit metastatic melanoma, and therapy is individualized based on the patient. While many patients undergo surgical procedures, those with surgical contraindications or declination face challenges when attempting to find adequate treatment options. This case report demonstrates the successful treatment of multiple in-transit metastatic melanoma lesions using the combination of shave excision, electrodesiccation and curettage, and topical imiquimod cream. Several months later, examination showed clinical resolution of the original metastatic lesions. This treatment regimen may provide an alternative option for a select group of patients with certain comorbidities and therapeutic contraindications.

Abstract
Introduction Cesarean scar pregnancy affects 6% of all ectopic pregnancies in women with prior cesarean section, and there is currently no consensus on the optimal treatment. Options of surgical treatment have a risk of intraoperative blood loss; therefore, uterine artery embolization (UAE) has been considered as an option of reducing intraoperative blood loss. However, UAE may be overused in clinical practice, especially in China. We present this protocol for a randomized clinical trial investigating the necessity of performing UAE for cesarean scar pregnancy, in combination with surgical suction curettage, taking into account the different subtypes of cesarean scar pregnancy. We recently developed a risk-scoring system (QRS) to estimate intraoperative blood loss, with 93.8% sensitivity and 6.3% false negative. Through this randomized clinical trial, we will retrospectively validate the QRS score on predicting intraoperative blood loss. Methods and Analysis We propose undertaking a randomized clinical trial sequentially recruiting 200 patients. All the patients will randomly receive ultrasound guided curettage with or without UAE. Data on the subtypes of cesarean scar pregnancy (Types 1 and II and III) detected by ultrasound will be collected before operation. The score on estimating intraoperative blood loss assessed by our recently developed quantitative risk-scoring system (QRS) will be collected before the operation. We will primarily compare the duration of the operation, intraoperative blood loss, and complications between the two groups. We will also retrospectively analyze the association of subtypes of cesarean scar pregnancy and the options of treatment and validate the QRS score. Outcomes of subsequent pregnancy within the 2-year follow-up will be secondary outcomes. Trial Registration Number [website], identifier ChiCTR2100041654.

Abstract
This Perspective briefly reviews the relationship between UV-induced mutations in habitually sun-exposed human skin and subsequent development of actinic keratoses (AKs) and skin cancers. It argues that field therapy rather than AK-selective therapy is the more logical approach to cancer prevention and hypothesizes that treatment early in the process of field cancerization, even prior to the appearance of AKs, may be more effective in preventing cancer as well as more beneficial for and better tolerated by at-risk individuals. Finally, the Perspective encourages use of rapidly advancing DNA analysis techniques to quantify mutational burden in sun-damaged skin and its reduction by various therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to present the mid-term functional outcomes and recurrence rate in patients with giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) treated by intralesional extended curettage, electrocauterization, and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cementation. METHODS In this retrospective observational study, 79 consecutive patients (41 females, 38 males; mean age=39 years; age range=19-62 years) who were diagnosed and treated for GCTB between 2005 and 2017 were identified from hospital medical records. All patients were treated by intralesional extended curettage using high-speed burr, electrocauterization of the cavity, and filling the defect with PMMA. No additional local adjuvants were used. The mean follow-up period was 47 months (range=24-96). The tumors were graded according to the radiological classification system described by Campanacci. Functional outcomes were evaluated using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Score (MSTS) preoperatively, one year postoperatively, and at the final follow-up. Postoperative complications and recurrence rates were recorded. RESULTS Twenty-nine tumors were located in the distal femur, 23 in the proximal tibia, nine in the distal radius, five in the proximal humerus, five in the pelvis, three in the proximal fibula, two in the distal ulna, two in the distal tibia, and one in the second metatarsal. According to Campanacci classification, 37 tumors were grade III, 32 grade II, and 10 grade I. The mean MSTS score was 46.1% (range 40.2 to 71.4%) preoperatively, 91.7% (range 73.3% to 100%) one year postoperatively, and 86.3 % (range 66.2% to 96,1%) at the final follow-up. The overall complication rate was 7.6%; which included local tumor recurrence in four patients, superficial wound infection in one, and deep wound infection in another. The recurrence rate was 5.1% (4 patients). Recurrent tumors were located at the distal femur in three patients and proximal tibia in one. CONCLUSION With satisfactory functional results and low recurrence rates at the mid-term follow-up, GCTB can be treated effectively with intralesional extended curettage, electrocauterization, and PMMA cementation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Adenoidectomy can be performed using the cold method (mainly adenoid curettes) or the hot method (suction diathermy). Both techniques have similar intra and postoperative outcomes. However, the long-term clinical outcome of improving sleep disorder symptoms has not been well established. The objective of this study was to compare outcomes of hot method and cold method adenoidectomy one year following the surgery. STUDY DESIGN A prospective, randomized, single-blinded study of children under age 16 years who underwent adenoidectomy during the years 2014-2017. Patients were randomized to hot or cold adenoidectomy techniques. SETTING A tertiary health care referral center. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The final analysis included 58 children, mean age 5.9 years (range 1.2-15). The primary outcome was change in the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) scores one month and one year after surgery. The secondary outcome was complication rate. RESULTS Clinical and demographic parameters were similar between the patients in the hot method group (n = 30) and the cold method group (n = 28). Adenoid size and estimated bleeding were similar between the groups. At one month after surgery, PSQ score was improved by a mean + 0.31 in the hot method group compared to +0.32 in the cold method group (p = 0.54). Improvement in PSQ scores was greater following hot than cold adenoidectomy at one year after surgery (+0.31 points vs. +0.22 points, p = 0.009). CONCLUSION Hot adenoidectomy is associated with better outcome than the cold technique, as reflected by PSQ scores one year after the surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Papanicolaou testing is effective in identifying squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix. Endocervical adenocarcinoma (EAC) and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) are far less commonly identified. Endocervical curettings (ECCs) are usually obtained after colposcopic biopsy, sample the endocervical canal, and aid in the detection of endocervical glandular lesions. Here, we examine the utility of Papanicolaou testing and endocervical curetting for detecting AIS and EAC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cases from 2007 to 2019 with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of AIS and EAC were identified and the clinical data and diagnostic material, including the cytology and surgical specimens, obtained. RESULTS A total of 108 cases of AIS and EAC were identified, Papanicolaou tests were performed in 97 of these cases, and ECC in 87. AIS or EAC were detected in 46.4% of Papanicolaou tests; 41.4% of ECC showed AIS or EAC. A total of 92.7% of cases were positive for high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) and concurrent squamous intraepithelial lesion was present in 53.3% of cases. AIS or EAC were more commonly identified in cases without concurrent squamous intraepithelial lesions. CONCLUSIONS Papanicolaou testing and endocervical curettings have a low detection rate for AIS and EAC. The majority of AIS and EAC cases test positive for high-risk HPV. Papanicolaou test and ECC show different detection rates and are complementary tools in patients with AIS and EAC. In some settings, an ECC can increase the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the pathologic diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low-risk non-metastatic gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) has been treated with single agent chemotherapy, but second curettage is emerging as an alternative strategy with reported cure rates of 40%. We sought to estimate the cost-effectiveness of second curettage as the first line treatment of low-risk GTN. METHODS A decision-analytic model was created using TreeAge software to compare costs and outcomes for women with WHO staged low-risk GTN undergoing treatment with 5-day methotrexate (MTX), biweekly pulsed actinomycin-D, or second curettage. Probabilities were derived from the literature. Outcomes of interest included side effects from chemotherapy, need for additional agents, hemorrhage, uterine perforation, and cure rates. Utilities were applied to discounted life expectancy at a rate of 3% to generate quality adjusted life years (QALYs). Sensitivity analyses were then performed in order to assess the robustness of our assumptions. RESULTS Of the three treatment arms, MTX was associated with the lowest cost and had similar QALYs to the other studied modalities. Second curettage was associated with 49 additional cures when applied to a theoretic cohort of 1000 women, as well as an additional 83 hemorrhages and 17 uterine perforations. Sensitivity analysis on the cure rate of second curettage revealed that second curettage was not cost-effective over MTX unless its probability of cure was 98%. CONCLUSION Our study found 5-day MTX was the cost-effective strategy for treatment of women with low-risk, non-metastatic GTN when compared to second curettage and actinomycin-D. In a carefully selected patient population, second curettage may be an additional treatment strategy.

Abstract
RATIONALE Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is the condition of having a low platelet count of unknown causes and is a poorly understood acquired hemorrhagic disease involving destruction of platelets in the reticuloendothelial system induced by antiplatelet antibodies. Patients with ITP can have traumatic intra-articular, intraosseous or soft tissue hemorrhage which may present as a rare intraosseous pseudotumor on medical imaging. PATIENT CONCERNS A 30-year old male patient had complaint of pain in the right leg for 1 year. Laboratory test revealed a much lower platelet count (3-12 × 10/L). DIAGNOSES Radiography and computed tomography showed expansive bone destruction in the distal segment of the right femur, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed heterogeneous signal intensity in the lesion. Lesion curettage and pathology showed an expansion cyst with a really thin cortical bone shell containing serum-like red liquid and some sediment-like deposit. Consequently, the diagnosis of a pseudotumor was confirmed. INTERVENTIONS Lesion curettage and bone graft surgery were performed, and 8 units of platelet were transfused to the patient. Giant cell reaction was found on the shell of the lesion, but no tumor cell was found on pathological examination. OUTCOMES The platelet count was 308 × 10/L 5 days after operation, and the clotting time was normal. At 6 month follow-up after lesion curettage, the patient remained normal with no deterioration in the lesion site. CONCLUSION The diagnosis of a pseudotumor of ITP relies mainly on imaging findings of the lesion and, in particular, knowledge of the underlying bleeding disorders. Radiologist and pathologist should be aware of the characteristics of this rare complication of ITP and other bleeding disorders like hemophilia in order to avoid misinterpretation of the lesion as a tumor or infection disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate routine second curettage for hydatidiform mole (HM) by comparing the characteristics and outcomes of developing gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). STUDY DESIGN This was a cohort study including 173 patients diagnosed with HM between January 2002 and August 2019 who were followed up at Nagoya University Hospital, Japan. After an evacuation, 105 and 68 patients were managed with the routine method (routine group) and elective method (elective group) for a second curettage, respectively. The routine second curettage was performed around 7 days after the first evacuation. Patients in the elective group underwent a second curettage if there was ultrasonographic evidence of molar remnants in the uterine cavity. Socio-clinical factors were retrospectively compared between the routine and elective groups, and between patients showing regression and those who developed GTN. RESULTS The incidence of GTN was 15.2% in the routine group and 20.6% in the elective group, and the difference was not significant (P = 0.364). The median GTN risk score was significantly higher in the routine group than in the elective group (P = 0.033). Presence of a complete HM, gestational age, and a pre-treatment human chorionic gonadotropin level of ≥ 200,000 mIU/mL were independent risk factors for GTN in molar patients. CONCLUSION The incidence of GTN was unchanged but the risk score of GTN was higher in the routine group than in the elective group. Routine second curettage may not be necessary, but further study will be needed to confirm this.

Abstract
Isolated cases of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) with partial myoepithelial component have been described. However, myoepithelial differentiation has not been described in sarcomatoid basal cell carcinomas, which usually show features resembling osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, or leiomyosarcoma. We report a case of an 87-year-old man with a forehead lesion that histologically showed a minor component of conventional nodular BCC in transition with a major biphasic sarcomatoid growth composed of invasive spindle-cell and epithelial-like components, the latter with a reticular pattern and scattered ductal structures. Both components showed cytological atypia and high mitotic rate (26/10HPF), with atypical mitotic figures. BER-EP4 immunostaining was exclusively found in the nodular BCC component whereas the sarcomatoid component revealed immunostaining for α-smooth muscle actin (SMA), muscle-specific actin (MSA), calponin, and p63 in both epithelial-like and spindle-cell populations. Focal immunoreactivity was observed in the epithelial component for S100 and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Furthermore, EWSR1-PBX1 gene fusion was also detected. This is to our knowledge, the first fully documented case of biphasic sarcomatoid BCC with myoepithelial carcinoma differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is an aggressive benign lesion that may sometimes be difficult to treat. Lesions that occur in the proximal femur require to be addressed aggressively because of the high rate of local recurrence and the risk of fracture. Few articles report the experience of management of ABC in the proximal femur. This location presents a surgical challenge due to its anatomical and biomechanical peculiarity. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 16 cases with ABC in the proximal femur that were treated in our institution between 2005 and 2014, utilizing extended curettage and liquid nitrogen as adjuvant therapy and reconstruction using nonvascularized autogenous fibular strut graft. The mean follow-up period was 50.5 months. Five cases presented as recurrent cases, while four cases presented with pathological fractures. RESULTS The functional score ranged from 70 to 90 on modified Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score with a mean score of 81.25, which is considered to be excellent function. Time for graft incorporation ranged from 10 to 12 weeks. One case got local recurrence, and one case got early surgical site infection. CONCLUSIONS Extended curettage and cryotherapy represent a recommended approach for management of ABC in the proximal femur with favorable results.

Abstract
We reviewed the files of 203 patients with extremities GCTB treated with curettage as first surgery from 1990 to 2013. Median follow-up was 84.2 months. We evaluated whether the years of practice and training in orthopaedic oncology are associated with local recurrences, function and complications after curettage as first surgery for giant cell tumour of bone (GCTB). Local recurrences were not significantly different between orthopaedic oncology trained and non-trained orthopaedic surgeons and between orthopaedic surgeons with < 10 years and ≥ 10 years of practice. Function was not significantly different between orthopaedic oncology trained and non-trained surgeons and between orthopaedic surgeons with < 10 years and ≥ 10 years of practice. The only important univariate and multivariate predictor for local recurrence was PMMA adjuvant. Complications were not significantly different between orthopaedic oncology trained and non-trained orthopaedic surgeons and between orthopaedic surgeons with < 10 years and ≥ 10 years of practice. Curettage may be effectively performed as first surgery for GCTB by early-career (< 10 years of practice) non-trained orthopaedic oncology orthopaedic surgeons. PMMA adjuvant is recommended after appropriate curettage.

Abstract
To compare the efficacy of curettage and bone grafting combined with elastic intramedullary nailing (EIN) vs curettage and bone grafting in the treatment of long bone cysts in children and to clarify the necessity of using EIN in the treatment of bone cysts.Sixty-two patients were involved in this study from Jan. 2009 to Sept. 2017 (43 males, 19 females; 27 humeri, 35 femurs); the patients were assigned to an EIN group, comprising 30 patients who underwent curettage and bone grafting combined with EIN, or to a non-elastic intramedullary nailing (NEIN) group, comprising 32 patients who underwent curettage and bone grafting alone. The prognosis of the 2 groups was assessed with reference to the standard of Capanna.No statistically significant differences in sex, age, location, activity, pathological fracture, cyst volume, operative time and intraoperative blood loss were found between the 2 groups (P > .05). The effective rate was 90.0% in the EIN group and 68.8% in the NEIN group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < .05).Compared to simple curettage and bone grafting, curettage and bone grafting combined with EIN treatment can significantly improve the prognosis of children with bone cysts. It is recommended that EIN be added to bone cyst curettage and bone grafting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Grade I or low-grade chondrosarcoma (LGCS) is a primary bone tumour with low malignant potential. Historically, it was treated by wide resection, since accurate pre-operative exclusion of more aggressive cancers can be challenging and under-treatment of a more aggressive cancer could negatively influence oncological outcomes. Intralesional surgery for LGCS has been advocated more often in the literature over the past few years. The potential advantages of less aggressive treatment are better functional outcome and lower complication rates although these need to be weighed against the potential for compromising survival outcomes. OBJECTIVES To assess the benefits and harms of intralesional treatment by curettage compared to wide resection for central low-grade chondrosarcoma (LGCS) of the long bones. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL; 2018, Issue 4), MEDLINE and Embase up to April 2018. We extended the search to include trials registries, reference lists of relevant articles and review articles. We also searched 'related articles' of included studies suggested by PubMed. SELECTION CRITERIA In the absence of prospective randomised controlled trials (RCTs), we included retrospective comparative studies and case series that evaluated outcome of treatment of central LGCS of the long bones. The primary outcome was recurrence-free survival after a minimal follow-up of 24 months. Secondary outcomes were upgrading of tumour; functional outcome, as assessed by the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score; and occurrence of complications. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We used standard methodological procedures recognised by Cochrane. We conducted a systematic literature search using several databases and contacted corresponding authors, appraised the evidence using the ROBINS-I risk of bias tool and GRADE, and performed a meta-analysis. If data extraction was not possible, we included studies in a narrative summary. MAIN RESULTS We included 18 studies, although we were only able to extract participant data from 14 studies that included a total of 511 participants; 419 participants were managed by intralesional treatment and 92 underwent a wide resection. We were not able to extract participant data from four studies, including 270 participants, and so we included them as a narrative summary only. The evidence was at high risk of performance, detection and reporting bias.Meta-analysis of data from 238 participants across seven studies demonstrated little or no difference in recurrence-free survival after intralesional treatment versus wide resection for central LGCS in the long bones (risk ratio (RR) 0.98; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.92 to 1.04; very low-certainty evidence). MSTS scores were probably better after intralesional surgery (mean score 93%) versus resection (mean score 78%) with a mean difference of 12.69 (95% CI 2.82 to 22.55; P value < 0.001; 3 studies; 72 participants; low-certainty evidence). Major complications across six studies (203 participants) were lower in cases treated by intralesional treatment (5/125 cases) compared to those treated by wide resection (18/78 cases), with RR 0.23 (95% CI 0.10 to 0.55; low-certainty evidence). In four people (0.5% of total participants) a high-grade (grade 2 or dedifferentiated) tumour was found after a local recurrence. Two participants were treated with second surgery with no evidence of disease at their final follow-up and two participants (0.26% of total participants) died due to disease. Kaplan-Meier analysis of data from 115 individual participants across four studies demonstrated 96% recurrence-free survival after a maximum follow-up of 300 months after resection versus 94% recurrence-free survival after a maximum follow-up of 251 months after intralesional treatment (P value = 0.58; very low-certainty evidence). Local recurrence or metastases were not reported after 41 months in either treatment group. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Only evidence of low- and very low-certainty was available for this review according to the GRADE system. Included studies were all retrospective in nature and at high risk of selection and attrition bias. Therefore, we could not determine whether wide resection is superior to intralesional treatment in terms of event-free survival and recurrence rates. However, functional outcome and complication rates are probably better after intralesional surgery compared to wide resection, although this is low-certainty evidence, considering the large effect size. Nevertheless, recurrence-free survival was excellent in both groups and a prospective RCT comparing intralesional treatment versus wide resection may be challenging for both practical and ethical reasons. Future research could instead focus on less invasive treatment strategies for these tumours by identifying predictors that help to stratify participants for surgical intervention or close observation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteofibrous dysplasia usually progresses until ten years of age and occasionally regresses spontaneously after puberty. Patients with osteofibrous dysplasia usually require close observation. Surgery is an option considered only for extensive, deforming lesions and those with pathological fractures and rapid progression prior to puberty. If surgery is indicated, the traditional intra-lesional curettage or subperiosteal resection usually leads to high recurrence. Hence, extraperiosteal wide excision and various methods of reconstruction after resection have been advocated for this lesion. We reviewed the clinical results of patients managed with extraperiosteal segmental excision and reconstruction by liquid nitrogen-treated tumor-bearing autograft combined with allograft. METHODS From January 2010 to December 2014, twelve patients with final diagnosis of tibial osteofibrous dysplasia were studied retrospectively. All these patients were treated with extraperiosteal segmental excision and reconstruction by liquid nitrogen-treated tumor-bearing autograft combined with allograft. RESULTS The patient group consisted of 5 males and 7 females, with a median age of 13 years (6-24 years). 3 lesions were located in left tibia and 9 in right. The median length of resected segment was 8 cm (5-11 cm). The patients were followed for 36-84 months (median 52 months). Follow-up radiographs showed that the median time for complete union of the grafted bone was 9 months (6-15 months). There was no evidence of recurrence. All patients had full range of motion in the knee and ankle joints after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Extraperiosteal segmental excision for osteofibrous dysplasia of tibia with reconstruction by liquid nitrogen-treated recycled autograft and allograft is a good surgical option to prevent recurrence and fill bone defects in this rare lesion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sebaceous hyperplasia (SH) is a common cutaneous disorder associated with cosmetic problems. Some optional treatments and various laser devices have been reported to be effective, but recurrence and cosmetic outcome have not been resolved. METHODS This interventional study was performed on SH lesions. First, the lesions were treated with a CO2 laser, and then the shrunken lesions were removed with a fine, sharp curette. RESULTS A total of 46 patients (32 females and 14 males, mean age 39.9 ± 5.7 years) with SH skin lesions varying in severity were included in this study. The mean time of repair was 11.5 ± 1.9 days; a shorter repair time was seen in females and for mild extension lesions (p < 0.001). A fair cosmetic outcome was seen in 76.1% of cases, with better results reported for females and for skin types II and III (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The method reported herein is an easy, rapid, and effective procedure for the complete removal of SH lesions with few complications in the majority of patients with numerous lesions and Fitzpatrick skin types II-IV. Cosmetic outcomes are better in females and skin types II and III.

Abstract
Anesthesia of curettage of uterine cavity (CUC) at postoperative period causes additional expenses. Preventive intraoperative anesthesia makes it possible to reduce these expenses and provide significant positive economic effect on state budget. The objective of this research is determination of influence of different methods of anesthesia of CUC on cash value of anesthetic maintenance of CUC and the possibility of saving of budgetary funds. 128 women took part in the research. They underwent the procedure of CUC. Anesthetic maintenance was performed using different medicamental combinations and their dosages. Mathematical calculation of the cost of each CUC stage was done considering the cost of consumables, medical preparations and value of labor of medical staff. In the course of this research, it was proven that a combination of additional use of dexketoprofen (at the stage of premedication of CUC) and performing preventive intraoperative applicational anesthesia with bupivacaine solution can save 130 452,26UAH of wage fund per year and general budget savings within the confines of a state can each 9 954 617,67UAH per year.

Abstract
RATIONALE It is very difficult to treat patients with placenta previa who underwent pregnancy termination and suffered antenatal massive hemorrhage in the 2nd trimester. PATIENT CONCERNS In this study, case 1 was with fetal malformation of 18-trisomy syndrome at gestation of 19 weeks + 2 days, case 2 was with fetal malformation of 18-trisomy syndrome at gestation of 22 weeks + 1 day, and case 3 was for intrauterine fetal death at gestation of 27 weeks. All the 3 cases were completely placenta previa. DIAGNOSES For the 3 patients, completely placenta previa was confirmed by ultrasound examination after hospitalization and underwent pregnancy termination for fetal death or fetal malformation in the 2nd trimester. INTERVENTIONS The 3 patients with placenta previa underwent pregnancy termination by mifepristone combined with ethacridine lactate in the 2nd trimester for intrauterine fetal death or fetal malformation from June 2017 to May 2018, and suffered antenatal massive hemorrhage during termination. Uterine artery embolization (UAE) was immediately performed to achieve hemostasis, then double balloon catheter (DBC) was carried out to promote cervical ripen, at last curettage was implemented with the help of ultrasound. After all these procedures, the clinical outcomes were observed. OUTCOMES The antenatal bleeding volume of these 3 patients were about 500, 600, and 550 mL. After implementing the combined treatment, all patients completed the abortion. The UAE-DBC time interval and DBC-curettage time interval were 58.4 and 6.0 hours, respectively, for case 1, whereas almost 0 (i.e., immediately) for cases 2 and 3. Case 1 had a fever lasting for 3 days, and the maximum body temperature was up to 39°C after UAE. Moreover, the blood culture was positive for Escherichia coli after curettage in case 1, whereas it was negative in the other 2 cases. LESSONS The UAE-DBC-curettage combined treatment is safe and effective for patients with placenta previa who undergo pregnancy termination and suffered massive antenatal hemorrhage in the 2nd trimester. Future studies are needed to advance our observation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Introduction: Scientific information sources point to the significant effectiveness of curettage of uterine cavity (CUC) as a diagnostic and treatment mode of gynecologic oncology. Today the anesthesia service is able to satisfy virtually all the requirements of a surgeon and a female patient, however, some institutional factors, as for example postoperative recovery of consciousness, and factors influencing it, remain unaddressed. The aim: to explore the possibilities of influence of different combinations and dosages of medical preparations used to provide monitored anesthesia care of CUC, to change the time of postoperative recovery of patient's consciousness. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: an interview of 96 patients by VAS, studies of cortisol, insulin and glucose levels in blood serum, measurements of time from the end of surgery to the awakening and complete recovery of consciousness and statistical processing of the results have been conducted. RESULTS Results: A combination of 50 mg of dexketoprofen and half-dose drugs for narcosis can hasten the postoperative wake-up time by 38%, while maintaining dosages can prolong by 37% on the contrary. There is a dose-dependent effect of drugs for narcosis on the time of full post-operative recovery of consciousness. The reduction of their dosages by half can reduce this time by almost 40%. CONCLUSION Conclusions: the dosage modification of anesthetic drugs and their combinations may have a significant effect on the time of postoperative awaking and complete recovery of consciousness in female patients after CUC. As a result, it has a positive physiological, psychological and social effect.
