PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of intracorporeal anastomosis in laparoscopic colectomy for benign and malignant tumor diseases in actual clinical settings. METHODS: From January 2016 to June 2021, a total of 114 cases were selected for laparoscopic colectomy for benign or malignant tumor diseases. Seventeen cases that underwent simultaneous combined laparoscopic procedures were excluded from the study. The remaining patients were separated into 48 cases in the intracorporeal group and 49 cases in the extracorporeal group...

Fallopian tube torsion secondary to paraovarian or paratubal cyst is a rare gynecological cause of acute abdomen. The condition has no distinctive signs and symptoms. There are no characteristic features on radiological imaging, making preoperative diagnosis very difficult. Paraovarian cysts that are less than 4 cm in size are mostly asymptomatic and found incidentally during a pelvic examination or radiological imaging. It seldom leads to any complications like fallopian tube torsion hemorrhage or rupture...

The aim of our study was to recommend a novel method for measuring the distance from the umbilicus to intra-abdominal organs, as well as recommend an instrument length that would accommodate transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site (U-LESS) surgeries to these areas. From CT scans of 50 men and 50 women, we calculated the distance from the umbilicus to 11 intra-abdominal points of interest using two triangles oriented perpendicular to each other. Using known lengths of the triangles, we used the Pythagorean theorem to calculate distances with and without insufflation...

The first case is a 45-year-old man who presented with complaints of right-sided indirect hernia. On examination the left hemiscrotum was empty. Open hernioplasty and mesh fixation with orchiopexy of both testes were done in the same hemiscrotum, followed by MRI for further evaluation. The second case is a 26-year-old man who presented with penoscrotal hypospadias and empty left hemiscrotum, with the left testis not palpable in the scrotum or the inguinal region. MRI, karyotyping and laparoscopic orchidectomy were performed, followed by endocrinology work-up...

A 23-year-old pregnant woman presented with acute right-sided abdominal pain and vomiting in the 21st week of gestation. An MRI scan showed an ovarian torsion and a dermoid cyst. On the same day, laproscopy was performed. After removal of the cyst, the pregnancy and the childbirth progressed without complications.

BACKGROUND: Infertility is a common health problem requiring imaging to delineate the anatomical causes in women. Three dimensional multi-detector computed tomography hysterosalpingography (3D-MDCT-HSG) offers an easy workup for uterine, tubal and peritoneal factors. METHODS: To present the spectrum of uterine, tubal and peritoneal factors on 3D-MDCT-HSG and determine its diagnostic accuracy for female factor infertility, a prospective study was conducted on 25 infertile women with non-diagnostic HSG from November 2012 to March 2014...

The new cases and mortality of gastric cancer in the population aged over 75 years account for 21% and 30% of the cases in the whole population respectively. These elderly patients with gastric cancer are characteristic of nonspecific clinical manifestations, high proportion of upper gastric carcinoma, larger tumor size, advanced TNM stage, concomitant diseases, poor body function and high risk of complications. Specialists should pay more attention to the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. Comprehensive and systemic assessment should be performed, and concomitant diseases should be treated...

Synchronized pluriparous Santa Inês ewes were subjected to natural mating (NM, n = 8) and AI, which was performed for a fixed time (55 ± 1 hour) by CRI (n = 8) or laparoscopy (n = 8). Ewes were classified as pregnant, with return to estrus (RE) or with embryonic loss (EL). Blood samples were collected on Day 0, Day 3, Day 5, Day 12, and Day 17 (Day 0 = AI/NM) for progesterone dosage and cytokines were quantified from Day 0 to Day 12...

Shoulder pain is a commonly reported symptom following laparoscopic procedures such as myomectomy or hysterectomy, and recent studies have shown that lowering the insufflation pressure during surgery may reduce the risk of post-operative pain. In this pilot study, a method is presented for measuring the intra-abdominal space available to the surgeon during laproscopy, in order to examine whether the relaxation produced by deep neuromuscular blockade can increase the working surgical space sufficiently to permit a reduction in the CO2 insufflation pressure...

Isolated torsion of fallopian tube is a rare event and often difficult to diagnose. This report describes such a condition in a patient who presented with pain lower abdomen and underwent laproscopy primarily by surgeons with the suspicion of appendicitis but eventually ended up in right salpingectomy because of isolated right tubal torsion. The issue of future fertility was obviously considered but unfortunately the tube could not be preserved because of necrosis and haemorrhage inside it. Tubal torsion should however be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of lower abdominal pain in women of all ages...

The da Vinci Surgical System represents a new technology in advanced laparoscopy: Sitting at a console that allows three-dimensional vision of the operating field, the robotic surgeon is enabled to perform complex laparoscopic procedures. The movements of telemanipulators ("masters") are transferred to EndoWrist instruments with all degrees of freedom. Compared with conventional laproscopy, the technology allows more dexterity, a shorter learning curve, improved vision, reduced operating time with reduced staff requirements, and an ergonomically designed work station with minimal burden on the back and joints...

Endometriosis is the presence of endometrial cells and stroma at ectopic sites outside the uterine cavity. The natural history of endometriosis is uncertain, its etiology unknown, the clinical presentation inconsistent, diagnosis difficult and the treatment poorly standardized. It causes significant morbidity due to pelvic pain and infertility among 15-25% of women during their reproductive age. The benign disease causes peritoneal inflammation, fibrosis, adhesions and ovarian cysts but displays features of malignancy, like neo-vascularization, local invasion and distant metastasis...
