Early outcomes of robotic modified retromuscular Sugarbaker technique for end colostomy parastomal hernia repair.

Aim: The modified retromuscular Sugarbaker or Pauli technique is a technique for parastomal hernia repair, which requires the dissection of the retromuscular space and a transversus abdominis release for stoma lateralization and placement of a retromuscular mesh. Given the limited evidence regarding the robotic approach to this technique, this study aims to evaluate the outcomes of this newly introduced procedure, focusing on the rate of 30-day complications and recurrence rates.

Methods: Retrospective case series report.

Delay in the residents' choice for General and Digestive Surgery: Analysis of the period 2018-2022.

Introduction: Every year hundreds of medical residents choose their specialization in various surgical fields. However, these numbers have been poorly analyzed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the selection of General and Digestive Surgery by medical residents and compare these results with the selection of other surgical specialties.

Analysis of recurrence and risk factors in laparoscopic sandwich technique for parastomal hernia repair.

Introduction: Parastomal hernias are frequent and highly recurrent. The sandwich technique is a combination of the keyhole and Sugarbaker techniques, using a double intraperitoneal mesh. The objective of this study was to assess the outcomes of the sandwich technique, specifically focusing on recurrence rates.

Parietex™ Composite Ventral Patch for primary and incisional hernia repair.

Backgrounds: Ventral hernia repair with a preformed device is a frequent intervention, but few reports exist with Parietex™ Composite Ventral Patch. The aim was to evaluate the results of this mesh with the open intraperitoneal onlay mesh (open IPOM) technique.

Methods: Observational retrospective single institution study of all consecutive patients intervened for ventral or incisional hernia with a diameter inferior to 4 cm, from January 2013 to June 2020.

[Preliminary multicentric study on the nutritional status in hospitalization at home (HaD) with the same informational application of nutritional assessment].

Introduction: the prevalence of hospital malnutrition is high and involves an increase in health care costs. Home hospitalization (HH) allows better clinically stable patient control after an acute illness by a highly specialized health care team.

Objective: to know the nutritional condition of home hospitalization patients using a computer application that allows the implementation of early nutritional measures at home and improves post-hospital control of these patients.

Prospective, randomized comparative study between single-port laparoscopic appendectomy and conventional laparoscopic appendectomy.

Introduction: Laparoscopic appendectomy is probably the technique of choice in acute appendicitis. Single port laparoscopic surgery (SILS) has been proposed as an alternative technique. The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of SILS against conventional laparoscopic appendectomy (LA).

[Giant esophageal lipoma].

Esophageal lipomas are uncommon benign tumors. The main symptom of this type of tumor is dysphagia due to esophageal obstruction. The diagnostic studies of choice are endoscopy, radiological investigation with contrast administration, computed tomography, and echoendoscopy.
