Application of a New Mesh Fixation Method in Laparoscopic Incisional Hernia Repair.

Laparoscopic incisional hernia repair using intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) is one of the most widely used minimally invasive methods for repairing incisional hernias. The laparoscopic IPOM involves implanting the mesh into the abdominal cavity through laparoscopy to repair an abdominal wall hernia. In the IPOM surgery, after the closure of the hernia ring, an anti-adhesion mesh is placed laparoscopically.

Cuproptosis-related long non-coding RNAs model that effectively predicts prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Cuproptosis has recently been considered a novel form of programmed cell death. To date, long-chain non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) crucial to the regulation of this process remain unelucidated.

Aim: To identify lncRNAs linked to cuproptosis in order to estimate patients' prognoses for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Botulinum Toxin A Facilitated Laparoscopic Repair of Complex Ventral Hernia.

Complex ventral hernia repair can be challenging despite the recent advances in surgical techniques. Here, we aimed to examine the effectiveness of preoperative combined use of botulinum toxin A (BTA) and preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum (PPP) for surgical preparation of patients with complex ventral hernia. In this prospective, observational study, we included 22 patients with complex ventral hernia between January 2018 and May 2021.
