Combined approach with negative pressure wound therapy and biological mesh for treatment of enterocutaneous fistula after synthetic mesh repair of incisional hernia. A case report.

Aim: Enterocutaneous fistula is a rare but severe complication of prosthetic incisional hernia repair. Management requires re-exploration with intestinal repair/resection and mesh removal. Repair of the parietal defect in this contaminated field is challenging.

Giant Spigelian Hernia presenting as small bowel obstruction: Case report and review of literature.

Introduction: Spigelian Hernia is an uncommon pathology of abdominal wall (0.12-2.4%), usually small sized and with vague symptoms.

Indocyanine Green Fluorescent Angiography During Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: Preliminary Results.

Introduction: Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescent angiography has been routinely applied for various laparoscopic procedures to evaluate the tissue blood supply. A promising branch for this technology is represented by bariatric surgery, especially to estimate the risk of gastric leak after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), which seems mainly related to ischemia of the stomach.

Materials And Methods: 43 consecutive patients from January 2018 to March 2019 underwent in our institution LSG with intravenous injection of 5 ml ICG after the realization of gastric tube to evaluate the blood supply of the gastric tube.

Complications of postlaparoscopic sleeve gastric resection: review of surgical technique.

Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become a very frequent procedure in bariatric surgery. Despite its simplicity, it can have serious complications. Among these, gastric leak is one of the most feared complications.

Which is the correlation between carcinoid tumor and Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy? A case series and literature review.

Introduction: Gastric Carcinoid Tumors (GCT) are very rare in general population, but some studies evidenced a higher incidence among bariatric surgery patients. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is a widely accepted procedure for the surgical treatment of morbid obesity. LSG acts both in reducing food intake and interfering with hormonal balance in the gut-brain axis.

Laparoscopic treatment of obstructed internal supravesical hernia: A cases series and rewiev of the literature.

Introduction: internal supravesical hernia (ISH) is an exceptional subtype of internal hernia often presenting with small bowel obstruction (SBO). Its rarity makes preoperative suspicion and diagnosis very difficult in an emergency setting.

Methods: we retrospectively analyzed the database of patients admitted in a single center emergency unit for small bowel occlusion (SBO) in virgin abdomen and treated by surgery from August 2013 to October 2018.

Advantage of laparoscopic resection for pelvic Schwannoma: Case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: Single pelvic schwannomas are rare tumor arising from the retrorectal, lateral or obturatory space. Laparoscopic approach to schwannoma located in lateral pelvic space has been previously described only in one case report. We present a case of a successful laparoscopic resection of pelvic schwannoma emphasizing the advantages of such a minimal invasive approach.

A single thyroid nodule revealing early metastases from clear cell renal carcinoma: case report and review of literature.

Introduction: We report the case of an incidental solitary renal cancer cell (RCC) thyroid metastatic nodule treated by thyroidectomy.

Presentation Of Case: A 53 year male presented with a solitary, asymptomatic thyroid nodule. He was treated with left nephrectomy 1 year before for a RCC.
