Case of the Week In the case of a 63-year-old male with metastatic cancer causing a pathological fracture in his right acetabulum, surgeons planned to excise the tumor and surrounding area, prompting concerns about physical alteration and mental impact. To address these, a #3Dprintedmodel of the patient’s anatomy was requested to visually and tactilely explain the pathology and procedure necessity. This model not only aided the patient in understanding and accepting the intervention but also facilitated surgeon communication and education, easing anxieties and enhancing procedural clarity.

MEETING REPORTER: Dr. Steven M. Silverstein, MD, FACS, the Founder of Silverstein Eye Centers, sheds light on the transformative role of technology in the field of glaucoma treatment. In this insightful discussion, Dr. Silverstein emphasizes how Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) has gained popularity, making it accessible to comprehensive surgeons beyond glaucoma specialists. Discover how this advancement allows surgeons to address both the inflow and outflow aspects of glaucoma simultaneously. This results in more effective and safer procedures, such as Endoscopic Cyclophotocoagulation (ECP), with reduced complications like hypotony. Explore the promising developments that are improving the lives of glaucoma patients and enhancing surgical outcomes.

ESSO Course on Fluorescence Guided Surgery We participate in the European Society of Surgical Oncology (ESSO) Course on Fluorescence Guided Surgery. It will be held on 6-7 June, 2024. Venue: LUMC Leiden. A few places are still available. Green Light Leiden is happy to welcome you. In this course participants will obtain a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals and state-of-the-art applications of fluorescence imaging of tumors (primary, metastases), sentinel lymph nodes, vital structures (bile ducts, ureters, nerves) and perfusion assessment of organs and tissues. Besides ‘traditional’ fluorescent dyes, participants will discover and work with novel antibody-/peptide-/nanobody-based targeted fluorescence-guided surgical navigation and will experience the possibilities and limitations of this intra-operative technique also in relation to open, laparoscopic and robotic approaches. #Fluorescentie #ICG #FGS #Surgical #
