Various murine models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) are widely used in experimental brain research. Here, we demonstrate the model of transcranial permanent distal MCAO which produces consistent cortical infarction of a size corresponding to damage imposed by the majority of human ischemic strokes.

Here, we introduce a novel approach-Laparoscopic Extracorporeal Knot-Tying for Uterine Vessel Occlusion during Hysterectomy with Cervical Cerclage in Large Uteri. A laparoscopic extracorporeal knot-pusher is used to perform cervical cerclage, achieving complete occlusion of uterine arteries. Thereafter, the corpus uteri are excised to enhance visibility and facilitate the operative field.

2026
This study describes a standardized surgical procedure for single-port endoscopic axillary lymph node dissection without liposuction in breast cancer. Indicated for patients with biopsy-confirmed nodal metastasis or positive sentinel lymph nodes, the technique emphasizes preservation of critical structures, particularly the intercostobrachial nerve, to reduce postoperative morbidity and optimize functional recovery.
FAQs
The electrical circuit runs from the active electrode through targeted tissue to the dispersive grounding pad. Tissue resistance converts the applied high-frequency alternating current into heat, so the extent of heating depends on how energy travels through the treatment region. This circuit arrangement helps define the treated tissue volume.
Current, exposure time, and electrode placement jointly influence the treatment zone. Changing any of these conditions can alter how much tissue receives heat, but the source material does not establish a universal setting. In cancer research, investigators examine these parameters in relation to precision and safety, especially when nearby structures must be protected.
Controlled heating denatures proteins and produces coagulative necrosis, a form of tissue destruction relevant to local tumor treatment. The desired effect is a treatment zone that encompasses targeted tissue while limiting injury to surrounding structures. This balance makes thermal control central to evaluating the technique.
During an open or minimally invasive procedure, electrode placement determines where electrical energy enters the tumor region. The operator must consider the intended treatment zone and nearby structures while selecting placement, current, and exposure time. In research, these choices are examined as contributors to precision, safety, and control of residual tumor tissue.
When tumors require local treatment, researchers may investigate monopole electrocoagulation during open or minimally invasive procedures. Its relevance lies in assessing whether controlled electrical heating can destroy targeted tumor tissue and potentially reduce residual tissue while limiting damage to surrounding structures. Studies therefore focus on treatment precision and safety.
Evaluation centers on the precision of the treatment zone, the safety of surrounding tissue, and the potential to reduce residual tumor tissue. Researchers relate these outcomes to electrode placement, electrical current, and exposure time because those conditions shape the extent of heating. This connects procedural design with the method’s possible role in local tumor treatment.
