Da Vinci single-port robotic system current application and future perspective in general surgery: A scoping review.

Background: The da Vinci Single-Port Robot System (DVSP) allows three robotic instruments and an articulated scope to be inserted through a single small incision. It received FDA approval in 2014 and was first introduced in 2018. The aim of this new system was to overcome the limitations of single-incision laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

[Endometriosis, a participatory study in the Serchio Valley (Tuscany Region, Central Italy): state of the art and perspectives].

Background: endometriosis is a chronic condition with a significant impact on women's health, featured by endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. A limited number of studies have been conducted in the general population, and the true prevalence of endometriosis is unknown for many areas of the country.

Objectives: to better estimate the prevalence of endometriosis in three Italian regions (Friuli Venezia Giulia, Tuscany, Apulia) and to assess the relationship between endometriosis and environmental factors in three participating areas (Trieste, Barga, and Taranto), with a focus on Tuscany Region.

First-in-human robotic percutaneous coronary intervention by the ROSES robotic system: a case report.

Background: Robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI) is increasingly gaining acceptance owing to several advantages.

Case Summary: Here, we report the first-in-human R-PCI performed with RObotic System for Endovascular Surgery (ROSES), an innovative robotic system designed to perform transcatheter angioplasty. We have reported a case of severe proximal posterolateral (PL) branch disease of the right coronary artery managed with R-PCI.

KETASER01 protocol: What went right and what went wrong.

Objective: To discuss the results of the KETASER01 trial and the reasons for its failure, particularly in view of future studies.

Methods: KETASER01 is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label, sequentially designed, non-profit Italian study that aimed to assess the efficacy of ketamine compared with conventional anesthetics in the treatment of refractory convulsive status epilepticus (RCSE) in children.

Results: During the 5-year recruitment phase, a total of 76 RCSEs treated with third-line therapy were observed in five of the 10 participating Centers; only 10 individuals (five for each study arm; five females, mean age 6.
