Grazia had her tubes burned after she decided she never wanted to have children. She then changes her mind and traveled from Honduras to the US for tubal reversal after having a failed cycle of IVF in her country.

Since then, a myriad of ablation techniques have been described, including multipolar electrocautery (MPEC), argon plasma coagulation (APC), cryotherapy, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). Each technique has had its advocates, and some of the techniques appear to have certain advantages in certain types of BE: e.g., long segment, nodular, etc. Most cases of BE are short segment, and most neoplastic cases do not have nodules or erosions. So the question I would like to see discussed is: In a patient with 1–2 cm of otherwise featureless flat but neoplastic BE: What ablation technique would you use, and what do you feel makes this technique advantageous?

Reversing blocked tubes from tubal sterilization surgery can be done with one of two advanced surgical reversal procedures. These procedures provide patients and alternative to in-vitro fertilization and also with excellent chances of pregnancy after removal of the tubal blockage.

Currently, there are several point-of-care tests on the market, but the cost of the consumable test strips make it more expensive than laboratory testing.  However, the SmartStrip mimics “lab on a chip” technology but instead of fluidics, it’s based on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) placed on a disposable test strip.  The result is a low-cost test that can be performed in minute...

Controlling internal bleeding without surgery or stitches?  Didn’t I see that on Star Trek?  Yes, but autonomous acoustic hemostasis is already here.  It’s an exciting technology based on high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) used to induce targeted blood coagulation within the body. Uncontrolled bleeding is a life-threatening concern with trauma, surgery, and stroke patients. When I asked Dr. Timothy Fabian, MD, Wilson alumni professor of surgery and chairman of the department of surgery, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, about the numbers, he confirmed, “Traumatic injuries kill more than 170,000 people each year.” Blood loss is one of the first priorities in treating trauma and hemorrhagic stroke.  In fact, according to the National Trauma Institute...
