Usually manifest with reducible volume increase in the post-lateral region of the abdomen and may occur in two specific anatomic defects: the triangles of Grynfelt (upper) and Petit (lower). Despite controversies with better repair, laparoscopic approach, following the same principle of the treatment of inguinal hernias, seems to present significant advantages compared to conventional/open surgeries.

Methods: 12 female pigs were divided into two groups: laparoscopy group (GLap) and NOTES group (GNote). The animals underwent liver biopsy by peritoneal laparoscopy or transvaginal endoscopy.

Objective: To establish the usefulness of infrared radiation thermography on monitoring in situ liver perfusion with different preservation solutions during liver harvesting.
Methods: Twenty-four adult male Wistar rats, weighing 385.31 g were randomly divided into four groups of six animals each according to the solution used to perfuse the liver (Euro-Collins® solution--EC group; Custodiol® solution--CUST group; Celsior® solution--CEL group and Ringer-Lactate solution--RL group).
