Recently, mostly as a result of drinking water fluoridation, the number of young patients affected by fluorosis increased considerably. This study describes a minimally invasive technique, using in-office dental bleaching (35% hydrogen peroxide) and enamel microabrasion (silicon carbide and 12% hydrochloric acid)to eliminate fluorosis like stains. The association of techniques was efficient and can be recommended as a good conservative alternative for the treatment of fluorosis affected teeth.

Objective: The purpose of the study was to evaluate early clinical and radiological results with a novel minimally invasive surgery (MIS) technique for Lapidus arthrodesis using intramedullary nail. Methods: Retrospective review of patients with hallux valgus surgery during an 18-month period. Patients with a procedure other than MIS Lapidus nail fixation were excluded. We describe surgical technique with a percutaneous joint preparation and fixation with an intramedullary nail through a MIS approach. Demographic variables, early complications and radiographic parameters were measured. Results: Ten feet in 8 patients with severe HV underwent a Lapidus procedure performed with a minimal invasive technique using intramedullary nail for fixation. No soft tissue complications and 1 patient required screw removal after bone healing. Mean HVA decreased from 31,4 degrees (range 17 to 47) SD (±9,3) to 10,3 degrees (range, -8,8 to 31,5) SD (±8,4), mean IMA decreased from 17,91 degrees (range, -17 to 20) SD (±0,9) to 5,46 degrees (range, –7,3 to 15.3) SD (±2,9) and mean DMAA decreased from 20,36 (range, 10-40) SD (±8,4) to 7,67 (range, -5 to 30) SD (±8,0). Conclusion: Intramedullary nail for Lapidus arthrodesis with minimally invasive technique showed satisfactory radiographic correction and minimal complications, but further follow up is needed to analyze clinical-radiographic results. Level of Evidence IV; Therapeutic Study; Case Series.

Objective. To review the existing studies on single-site robotic myomectomy and test the safety and feasibility of this innovative minimally invasive technique. Data Sources. PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar (from their inception to October 2019), as well as Clinicaltrials.gov databases up to April 2020. Methods of Study Selection. Clinical trials (prospective or retrospective) that reported the outcomes of single-site robotic myomectomy, with a sample of at least 20 patients were considered eligible for the review. Results. The present review was performed in accordance with the guidelines for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Four (4) studies met the inclusion criteria, and a total of 267 patients were included with a mean age from 37.1 to 39.1 years and BMI from 21.6 to 29.4 kg/m2. The mean operative time ranged from 131.4 to 154.2 min, the mean docking time from 5.1 to 5.45 min, and the mean blood loss from 57.9 to 182.62 ml. No intraoperative complications were observed, and a conversion rate of 3.8% was reported by a sole study. The overall postoperative complication rate was estimated at 2.2%, and the mean hospital stay ranged from 0.57 to 4.7 days. No significant differences were detected when single-site robotic myomectomy was compared to the multiport technique concerning operative time, blood loss, and total complication rate. Conclusion. Our findings support the safety of single-site robotic myomectomy and its equivalency with the multiport technique on the most studied outcomes. Further studies are needed to conclude on the optimal minimally invasive technique for myomectomy.
