Aim: The aim of this study is to compare clinical and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted right colectomy with those of conventional laparoscopy-assisted right colectomy, reporting for the first time in literature, a cost-effectiveness analysis.
Methods: This is a case-matched prospective non-randomized study conducted from October 2013 to October 2017 at Sanchinarro University Hospital, Madrid. Patients with right-sided colonic adenocarcinoma or adenoma, not suitable endoscopic resection were treated with robot-assisted right colectomy and a propensity score-matched (1:1) was used to balance preoperative characteristics of a laparoscopic control group.
Article Synopsis
- PPP syndrome is a complex condition that links pancreatic disease with extrabdominal issues like panniculitis and polyarthritis, leading to serious health risks.
- A case of a 67-year-old male showed no initial abdominal symptoms, but tests revealed acute pancreatitis and resulted in a successful spleen-preserving total pancreatectomy, ultimately confirming chronic pancreatitis.
- With only 64 reported cases in literature, PPP syndrome often lacks early abdominal symptoms, complicating diagnosis, but timely treatment is vital for improving patient outcomes.
