Background The use of topical vancomycin is increasingly popular in spine surgery. Large
retrospective reviews suggest that topical vancomycin provides a cost-effective decrease in …

Infarcted segments of myocardium demonstrate functional impairment ranging in severity from
hypokinesis to dyskinesis. We sought to better define the contributions of passive material …

Background Modern low-cost 3D printing technologies offer the promise of access to surgical
tools in resource scarce areas, however optimal designs for manufacturing have not yet …
