Laparoscopic cornual resection for interstitial pregnancy: Staying in the Marginal Zone.

Background: Fortunately, interstitial pregnancies are a rare early pregnancy presentation, yet they can be challenging to managed and are associated with a high risk of intra-abdominal haemorrhage. Once detected, surgical laparoscopic resection can be the preferred management method for both patient safety and for definitive treatment.

Objective: The video presents a new technique for laparoscopic resection of an interstitial pregnancy which enables the procedure to be effectively bloodless.

Barbed Sutures Compared With Conventional Sutures During Laparoscopic Myomectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Objective: To accumulate the currently available literature on the safety and efficacy of the use of knotless barbed sutures for the reconstruction of the uterine wall during laparoscopic myomectomy based on comparison with traditional suture studies.

Data Sources: We searched PubMed/Medline, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar up to February 29, 2024.

Laparoscopic Versus Vaginal Uterosacral Ligament Suspension in Women With Pelvic Organ Prolapse: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Literature.

Objective: Uterosacral ligament suspension (USLS) is one of the most frequently used operations for the restoration of apical support in women with uterovaginal prolapse. However, existing studies are inconclusive as to whether and which surgical access route is superior. The aim of the present meta-analysis is tentatively to compare the efficiency and the postoperative complications of laparoscopic USLS (L-USLS) and vaginal USLS (V-USLS), highlighting that current evidence remains inconclusive regarding the superiority of either surgical access route.

Laparoscopic management of a second trimester ruptured spontaneous heterotopic tubal pregnancy mimicking ovarian tumour, a case report.

Background: Laparoscopic surgery in the second trimester of pregnancy is a high risk and demanding operation. Especially when dealing with adnexal pathology, the surgeon should balance between the effort to establish adequate visualisation of the operating field with minimal uterine manipulation and use of energy application to avoid any potential adverse effects on the intrauterine pregnancy.

Objective: The video shows laparoscopic surgery performed in the second trimester of pregnancy and highlights modifications to technique to ensure safety.
