    Abstract Background: Proximal humeral fractures (PHFs) are still controversial with regards to treatment and are difficult to classify. The study's objective is to show that preoperative planning performed while handling a three-dimensional (3D) printed anatomical model of the fracture can ensure a better understanding of trauma for both surgeons and patients.
    Materials and methods: Twenty patients (group A, cases) with complex PHF were evaluated preoperatively by reproducing life-size, full-touch 3D anatomical models. Intraoperative blood loss, radiographic controls, duration of surgery, and clinical outcomes of patients in group A were compared with 20 patients (group B, controls) who underwent standard preoperative evaluation. Additionally, senior surgeons and residents, as well as group A patients, answered a questionnaire to evaluate innovative preoperative planning and patient compliance. Cost analysis was evaluated.
    Results: Intraoperative radiography controls and length of operation were significantly shorter in group A. There were no differences in clinical outcomes or blood loss. Patients claim a better understanding of the trauma suffered and the proposed treatment. Surgeons assert that the planning of the definitive operation with 3D models has had a good impact. The development of this tool has been well received by the residents. The surgery was reduced in length by 15%, resulting in savings of about EUR 400 for each intervention.
    Conclusions: Fewer intraoperative radiography checks, shorter surgeries, and better patient compliance reduce radiation exposure for patients and healthcare staff, enhance surgical outcomes while reducing expenses, and lower the risk of medicolegal claims.
    Level of evidence: Level I, prospective randomized case-control study.

    Abstract Background/aim: Despite the application of colorectal cancer (CRC) surveillance guidelines, the detection of early neoplastic lesions might be difficult in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To explore the risk of post-colonoscopy CRC (PCCRC) in patients with IBD we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis.
    Patients and methods: A systematic literature search was performed (PROSPERO; no. CRD42023453049). We included studies reporting the 3-year PCCRC (PCCRC-3y) prevalence, according to World Endoscopy Organization (WEO)-endorsed definition, in IBD and non-IBD patients. As primary outcome we evaluated the PCCRC-3y prevalence, according to WEO definitions, in IBD- and non-IBD patients and calculated the odds ratio (OR). The secondary outcome was to assess risk factors for PCCRC development in IBD patients.
    Results: Three retrospective observational cohort studies were included. The pooled PCCRC-3y rate in patients with IBD was 30.8% [95% confidence interval (CI)=24.4-37.5%] and in non-IBD patients was 6.8% (95%CI=6.2-7.4%). The PCCRC-3y occurrence in IBD patients was significantly higher than that in non-IBD patients (OR=6.04; 95%CI=4.04-9.4; I
    Conclusion: One-third of CRC in IBD patients were PCCRC, and these numbers were significantly higher when compared with those in non-IBD patients. Furthermore, the prevalence of PCCRC in patients with UC was higher compared to those with CD. However, prospective studies are required to better characterize risk factors for PCCRC development in patients with IBD.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to estimate the time needed for patients with Maisonneuve fractures to return to routine activities, after treatment with a suture-button system stabilization combined with plate and arthroscopic assistance (SBPAA).
    Methods: The study included 13 patients treated at our surgical department from January 2018 to June2022. Specific radiographical follow-up and periodic checks were performed in a short -to-medium term period, to evaluate syndesmosis evolution and tibiofibular overlap with medial clear space (MCS).
    Results: Progressive recovery and improvement were observed during follow-up from both radiographic and clinical perspective. Data showed that patients were able to return to full weight-bearing walking around the ninth week and to sport activities in 7.5 months. Long-term complications associated with residual joint stiffness, complex regional pain syndrome, or wound complications were observed in three patients.
    Conclusions: Intraoperative arthroscopy represent a valid diagnostic tool to better recognize and evaluate osteochondral lesions in case of syndesmosys. The study demonstrates the importance of intraoperative arthroscopy for recognizing and treating associated osteochondral lesions with proper syndesmosis evaluation. Plate associated to double TightRope represent valid solution to functionally fix and reduce fractures. Additionally, it imitates the normal syndesmosis's anatomy and provides elasticity and robustness, guaranteeing a rapid return to sporting activity. Data and casuistry support these findings.

    Abstract Introduction: Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome (SVCS) is a life-threatening occurrence that necessitates prompt treatment. At present, endovascular stenting is proposed as a first-line treatment to relieve symptoms. We assessed the effectiveness, safety and outcome of SVC stent positioning in patients affected with advanced cancer.
    Methods: Forty-two patients undergoing stent positioning in the SVC for neoplasms from January 2002 to December 2018 form the basis of this retrospective study. Demographic data, risk factors, associated diseases, symptoms at presentation according to the score proposed by Kishi and the type of SVCS according to Sanford and Doty were collected. Minor and major complications were recorded. Suspected stent occlusion was confirmed by means of recurrence of symptoms followed by a confirmatory computed tomography (CT).
    Results: Thirty-four (81%) patients had a nonresectable lung tumour invading or compressing the SVC. Five (12%) patients had a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and three (7%) had metastatic lymphadenopathies. Nitinol stents (Memotherm
    Conclusions: We recommend the use of the endovascular procedure as a first-line treatment in locally advanced or metastatic tumour in the presence of SVCS.
