Studies have shown that direct admission to operating room (OR) can reduce mortality in trauma patients. We hypothesize that expediting direct admin to OR resuscitation time for specific mechanisms of injuries (MOIs), especially for motor vehicle accident (MVA) patients, will improve overall mortality.

During hypoxia-inducing events such as hemorrhagic shock, damage to the endothelial glycocalyx occurs. Injury to this luminal carbohydrate-protein matrix has been linked to downstream dysfunction in coagulation mechanisms.

Although adequate venous drainage from the cranium is imperative for maintaining normal intracranial pressure, the bony anatomy surrounding the inferior petrosal sinus and the potential for a compressive canal or tunnel has, to our knowledge, not been previously investigated.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament injuries are commonplace in non-contact sports and often necessitate surgical intervention. There are numerous options for controlling pain after an ACL reconstruction which influences the time spent in recovery and how soon a patient can return to play.

Ileo-ileal intussusception in an adult is a rare event, and even more uncommon is ileo-ileal intussusception secondary to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of small bowel.

Patients with obesity and ESRD may undergo bariatric surgery to decrease complication rates during kidney transplantation (KT). Nutritional management for these patients may be complex; however, literature lacks specific guidelines to address these issues.

Mandibulectomy with fibular free flap (FFF) is a procedure involving removal of all or part of the mandible followed by reconstruction using revascularized donor bone from the fibula.

Ectopic variceal bleeding is a potentially underrecognized source of gastrointestinal (GI) hemorrhage. While vascular complication following pancreatic transplant is relatively common, the development of symptomatic ectopic venous varices has rarely been reported.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most commonly diagnosed male malignancy in the United States. Genetic inheritance portends significant risk of developing aggressive PCa, yet limited understanding exists of whether germline alterations play a significant role in localized disease for men on active surveillance (AS).

Obese patients with ESRD have limited access and higher complication rate during kidney transplantation (KT). We report outcomes when screening obese patients with ESRD to undergo bariatric surgery prior to KT.
