One-stage laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography bile duct stone extraction is a feasible option in Indonesia within the National Health Insurance System.

Introduction And Importance: Bile duct stones are a widespread condition that can pose a significant risk to life due to the occurrence of complications. In recent years, there has been a growing inclination toward the use of one-stage minimally invasive procedures for the treatment of this condition. However, it is important to note that in developing countries, such as Indonesia, where the National Healthcare Insurance System is established, the implementation of these procedures is still relatively uncommon due to limitations in healthcare facilities.

Case series: Treatment outcome of late presentation of acute appendicitis.

Introduction And Importance: Late presentation of Acute Appendicitis (AA) is associated with a high risk of perforation-related complications and morbidity. Even though AA is a well-known disease, late presented AA is not uncommon. This study aims to report the treatment outcome of several cases of late presented AA, treated at a government public hospital at Mojokerto, a small town in East Java, Indonesia, where no previous report were known.
