Article Synopsis
- - The study analyzed outcomes of first lung transplants in children under 12 compared to adolescents (12-17 years) based on patient data from 2005 to 2021.
- - Children under 12 were more likely to be transplanted for severe conditions like interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension, and they required longer recovery times and support compared to older teens.
- - Despite these challenges, key outcomes like graft survival and mortality rates were similar between both age groups, indicating that younger children can have comparable results to older adolescents post-transplant.
Objective: To evaluate the adequacy of laparoscopic ureterolysis as a primary treatment option for ureteral endometriosis.
Design: Prospective collaborative cohort study.
Setting: Gynecologic departments of three university hospitals.
Objective: To evaluate whether the presence of kissing ovaries at ultrasound is a marker for endometriosis and whether it correlates with the severity of the disease.
Design: Prospective observational study.
Setting: Gynecologic departments of two university hospitals.
Background: This study aimed to explore the feasibility and safety of two-port abdominal cavity entry for adnexal surgery.
Methods: A series of patients undergoing laparoscopy for benign adnexal diseases requiring adnexectomy, ovariectomy, or salpingectomy were enrolled in the study. A 10-mm 0 degree umbilical operative laparoscope and one 3- or 5-mm suprapubic trocar were used.
The removal of surgical specimen at operative laparoscopy through an incision of the posterior fornix is frequently performed for the removal of pelvic masses of the internal genital tract. We present a technique for the removal of the appendix through a laparoscopic colpotomy. Eight patients who underwent laparoscopy for a suspected pelvic or adnexal disease and intraoperatively found to be affected by an appendicular disease were included in the present series.

Methods: Patients presenting with a suspected benign mass greater than 5 cm or an extrauterine pregnancy undergoing operative laparoscopy were considered eligible. Patients with endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and previous hysterectomy were excluded.
