Occipital Artery Vasculitis Not Identified as a Mechanism of Occipital Neuralgia?Related Chronic Migraine Headaches
Methods: Twenty-five patients with preoperatively documented bilateral occipital neuralgia?related chronic headaches underwent peripheral nerve surgery with decompression of the greater occipital nerve bilaterally, including the area of its intersection with the occipital artery. In 15 patients, a 2-cm segment of the occipital artery was excised and submitted for pathologic evaluation. All patients were evaluated intraoperatively for evidence of arterially mediated greater occipital nerve compression, and the configuration of the nerve-vessel intersection was noted.
Results: None of the 15 specimens submitted for pathologic evaluation showed vasculitis. Intraoperatively, all 50 sites examined showed an intimate physical association between the occipital artery and greater occipital nerve.
Conclusions: Surgical specimens from this first in vivo study provided no histologic evidence of vasculitis as a cause of greater occipital nerve irritation at the occipital artery/greater occipital nerve junction in patients with chronic headaches caused by occipital neuralgia. Based on these findings, mechanical (and not primary inflammatory) irritation of the nerve by the occipital artery remains an important theoretical cause for otherwise idiopathic cases. The authors have adopted an operative technique that includes physical separation of the nerve-artery intersection (in addition to musculofascial neurolysis) for a more thorough surgical treatment of occipital neuralgia.

Processed foods . . . can be good for you?
The dietary zeitgeist favors foods that are ?whole? and ?local? over those that are ?processed? and ?packaged.?
But omitting processed, packaged foods can make it hard to meet your body?s dietary needs. And although not all processed foods are of equal quality, the best of them can deliver lots of nutrition without doing you any harm.

Bobby Flay?s recipe for eating healthfully
The name Bobby Flay isn?t exactly synonymous with healthful eating. The Food Network star, restaurateur and celebrity chef is better known for his big juicy burgers than for figure-friendly meals. And you won?t find calorie counts on the menu at his growing chain, Bobby?s Burger Palace.
But Flay, 46, has slimmed down over the past year or so, losing, by his estimate, 10 to 15 pounds. He didn?t do it by joining Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers, a la other celebrities. He whittled his waist by making surprisingly few, surprisingly simple lifestyle changes. At 5 foot 11 inches, Flay weighs 172 pounds.

Complex Craniosynostosis
Methods: A retrospective review of all patients identified as having multiple sutural synostosis excluding bicoronal and FGFR- and TWIST-associated synostoses was conducted. Data were summarized using descriptive statistics.
Results: Over an 18-year period, 858 patients underwent craniosynostosis correction, and 31 patients (3.6 percent) satisfied inclusion criteria. Average number of affected sutures was 2.9 (lambdoid, 36 percent; sagittal, 31 percent; coronal, 18 percent; metopic, 15 percent), and 1.7 procedures were performed per patient (mean follow-up, 3.5 years). Average hospital stay was 2.3 days, 21 percent required blood transfusions, and there were no major complications. For synostosis patterns isolated to one side of the anterior sagittal suture (anterior or posterior skull halves), 93 percent were corrected with a single procedure. When the synostosis pattern crossed both skull halves, 80 percent underwent two procedures (p < 0.001). Forty percent developed acquired Chiari deformations; of these, 60 percent required decompression. The incidence of Chiari deformations increased from 7 percent to 70 percent with lambdoid sutural involvement (p < 0.002). Anthropometric data revealed postoperative growth impairment. Gross developmental delays were noted in 20 percent (mild, 16 percent; moderate to severe, 4 percent). Conclusions: Complex craniosynostoses are associated with a higher incidence of acquired Chiari deformations (especially with lambdoid involvement), require multiple operative procedures, and may have more developmental delays than the isolated single sutural synostoses. The authors recommend surgical paradigms based on sutural involvement, compensatory surgical overcorrection, and routine magnetic resonance imaging monitoring for Chiari deformations. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

Acellular dermal matrix in cosmetic breast procedures and capsular contracture.
Acellular dermal matrix in cosmetic breast procedures and capsular contracture.
Aesthet Surg J. 2011 Sep;31(7 Suppl):77S-84S
Authors: Mofid MM
Abstract
Prevention and treatment of capsular contracture after breast augmentation is a controversial and oftentimes vexing problem. While there are traditional methods of addressing this condition, acellular dermal matrix materials offer a new and promising modality that is gaining momentum in the field of plastic surgery. In this article, the author examines the etiology and pathophysiology of capsular contracture and review the existing literature on acellular dermal matrix in breast surgery related to capsular contracture.

Abdominoplasty with Suction Undermining and Plication of the Superficial Fascia without Drains: A Report of 113 Consecutive Patients
Methods: A retrospective review of 113 consecutive abdominoplasty patients operated on between April of 2004 and May of 2010 was carried out and complications were reviewed.
Results: There were 109 women and four men, with ages spanning 23 to 76 years (average, 50 years). Complications of the surgery included hematoma (2.7 percent), with one requiring drain placement (0.9 percent) and two treated with needle aspiration (1.8 percent); seroma (8.8 percent), with four requiring closed suction drainage (3.5 percent) and six minimally treated with needle aspiration (5.3 percent); infection (2.7 percent), with one requiring intravenous antibiotics (0.9 percent) and two with minimal local erythema (1.8 percent); and minimal marginal skin necrosis with spontaneous healing (3.5 percent).
Conclusions: The technique of abdominoplasty with the addition of an extended incision, liposuction undermining of the deep fatty tissue between the superficial and abdominal muscle fascia, and the use of progressive tension sutures results in a better abdominal wall and waist contour. This decreases the need for dissection of the abdominal panniculus above the umbilicus except for a small tunnel to allow for the suturing of the rectus abdominis muscles. This allows for preservation of the arterial and lymphatic vessels, improving blood flow to the superior flap and decreasing seroma formation to the point where operative drains are not required.

Traffic science struggles to keep cars flowing on highways in D.C. and elsewhere
Traffic science is one of those disciplines that seems permanently poised on the verge of a breakthrough. Professional journals regularly publish promising research, and the press trumpets their importance. In 1999, The Post reported that scientists had gathered at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico to solve our national traffic problem ? just as an earlier generation of physicists had done to build the atomic bomb. And yet driving on the Beltway is still about as enjoyable as cleaning out your ears with a lemon reamer.
