    Abstract Among the various surgical treatments for basal joint arthritis, we modified abductor pollicis longus (APL) suspensionplasty by using two anchors. We hypothesized that this modification would prevent not only subsidence but also lateral migration of the first metacarpal. Thirteen thumbs that underwent APL suspensionplasty were investigated. Mean follow-up was 25 months (range, 12-69 months). Clinical and radiographic parameters were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively. Progression of subsidence (trapezial space) and lateral migration of the first metacarpal were investigated sequentially and with the thumb abducted or adducted against stress in a specifically designed mold. Clinical improvement was assessed by decrease in QuickDASH score (from 49.6 to 19.7). The immediate postoperative trapezial space decreased significantly by 39% (p = 0.003), and lateral migration was improved significantly by 14% (p = 0.007). At final follow-up, subsidence and lateral migration had not significantly progressed (p = 0.059 and 0.278, respectively). Under stress, the trapezial space ratio decreased significantly with the thumb in abduction (from 0.63 to 0.59, p = 0.011). APL suspensionplasty using two anchors in patients with basal joint arthritis maintained the position of the first metacarpal bone, and especially lateral subluxation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

    Abstract Dorsal augmentation using silicone and tip plasty with autogenous cartilage is commonly performed in Asians. No study has investigated the classification pattern and step-by-step procedure for tip plasty using silicone implants. Therefore, this study classified cartilage grafts using silicone implants in Asians and developed a step-by-step procedure for their implementation. The study included 39 patients who had undergone augmentation rhinoplasty with a silicone implant combined with a conchal cartilage graft as a shield, an onlay graft, or both. We classified the implant-conchal cartilage complex into two main types (edge and no-edge types). In the edge type, the shield graft tip was located 1-2 mm above the silicone implant or onlay graft. In the no-edge type, it was located at the same level as the silicone implant or onlay graft. Each type was classified into three groups depending on the number of onlay grafts: group I, 0; group II, 1; and group III, ≥2. The cartilage complex was placed on the dorsum. The conchal cartilages were harvested through a post-auricular incision while preserving the radix helicis as cartilage bars. The donor site was closed primarily without a tie-over dressing. Of the 39 patients, 35 were satisfied with the outcome. Three revision operations for implant displacement and one revision for a patient who changed her dorsal height preference were performed. No donor site morbidity occurred. This method may be safe and reliable, with minimal morbidity associated with graft harvesting for tip plasty in Asians.

    Abstract Introduction: It has been established that thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulates the growth and development of thyroid malignancy, and a higher serum TSH level is associated with the incidence of thyroid cancer and an advanced tumour stage. This study aimed to evaluate the association of preoperative subclinical hypothyroidism with the prognosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).
    Methods: A total of 466 patients who underwent surgery for PTC between December 2006 and June 2009 were enrolled. Among them, 44 patients had subclinical hypothyroidism, while 422 did not have subclinical hypothyroidism, as diagnosed using the preoperative thyroid function test. We compared the recurrence rate and association with clinicopathological features in the two groups.
    Results: The median patient age was 46.9 years (17-74 years). There were 420 female and 46 male patients. The median follow-up duration was 81.4 months. There were no statistical differences between the two groups with respect to age, sex, tumour size, extrathyroidal extension, multifocality, lymph node metastasis, TNM stages, recurrence and disease-free survival, despite a significant difference in the average TSH concentrations of the two groups.
    Conclusions: Our results suggest that preoperative subclinical hypothyroidism was not associated with tumour aggressiveness and recurrence in PTC.

    Abstract Purpose: Immunoscore can effectively predict prognosis in patients with colon cancer; however, its clinical application is limited. We modified the Immunoscore and created a tumor immune microenvironment (TIM) classification system for gastric carcinoma. Unlike previous studies that used small sample sizes or focused on particular immune-cell subtypes, our simplified system enables pathologists to classify gastric carcinomas intuitively using H&E-stained sections.
    Methods: Samples from 326 patients with advanced gastric carcinoma were reviewed and analyzed by pathologists using simple determination and digital image analysis. Comprehensive results of cancer-panel sequencing, Epstein-Barr‒virus (EBV) status, and PD-L1, HER2, ATM, PTEN, MET, FGFR2, and EGFR immunohistochemistry were evaluated with respect to the TIM class.
    Results: The TIM was classified as "hot" (n = 22), "immunosuppressed" (n = 178), "excluded" (n = 83), or "cold" (n = 43). TIM category was significantly associated with numbers of frameshift mutations (P < 0.001) and high tumor mutational burden (P < 0.004), and predicted overall survival. It was also significantly associated with age, histological type, degree of fibrosis, PD-L1 expression, loss of ATM and PTEN expression (P < 0.001), sex, EBV positivity, and HER2 overexpression (P < 0.04). "Hot" tumors were frequent in PD-L1 expressing and EBV-positive samples, and in those with ATM and PTEN loss. "Excluded" tumors were frequent in HER2-positive cases, whereas "cold" tumors were more frequent in younger patients with poorly cohesive histology and high fibrosis levels.
    Conclusions: TIM classification system for gastric carcinoma has prognostic significance and results in classes that are associated with molecular characteristics.

    Abstract With the expansion of the COVID-19 vaccination drive, an increasing number of adverse effects are surfacing. A 74-year-old woman presented with multiple erythematous and itchy patches on several sites. She had no relevant medical history, apart from the first AZD1222 vaccination 1 month previously. Microscopically, epidermal changes, including mild spongiosis and parakeratosis, were observed. Tight perivascular lymphocytic infiltration (coat-sleeve pattern) was also observed in the dermis. The final diagnosis was erythema annulare centrifugum (EAC) induced by SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Based on this report, dermatologists should be aware of the possibility of EAC from the AZD1222 vaccination.
