Re-evaluation of purse string suture in laparoscopic appendectomy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) using purse string invaginating sutures (PS) with those using intracorporeal knotting (IK) or Hem-o-lock polymeric clips (HL).

Methods: A total of 882 patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy from January 2015 to December 2017 were studied retrospectively. Of these, 538 patients used PS, 229 patients used IK and 115 patients used HL to close the appendiceal stump.

Simultaneous occurrence of primary aldosteronism due to aldosteronoma and ectopic meningioma in the adrenal gland: A case report.

Rationale: Primary aldosteronism due to aldosteronoma is the most common form of secondary hypertension, with an estimated prevalence of 4% of hypertensive patients in primary care and around 10% of referred patients. Diagnosis is a clinical challenge with simultaneous occurrence of primary ectopic meningioma in the adrenal gland. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of simultaneous occurrence of aldosteronomas and ectopic meningioma in the adrenal gland based on literatures.

Genetic polymorphism (rs6776158) in CaSR gene is associated with risk of nephrolithiasis in Chinese population.
