Purpose: To evaluate the gender distribution of first and last authors with Brazilian surgical affiliations in PubMed-indexed surgical journals.
Methods: Data from eligible surgical journals were retrieved using Scimago Journal & Country Rank 2021 and manually reviewed. Manuscripts published from 2018 to 2022 were included if at least one author was affiliated with a Brazilian institution and a surgical specialty.
Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most frequently performed procedures by general surgeons. Strategies for minimizing bile duct injuries including use of the critical view of safety method, as outlined by the SAGES Safe Cholecystectomy Program, are not always possible. Subtotal cholecystectomy has emerged as a safe "bail-out" maneuver to avoid iatrogenic bile duct injury in these difficult cases.

This study aims to evaluate the relationship between gastrointestinal congenital malformation (GICM) mortality, health indicators, and socioeconomic factors in Brazil.
Methods: GICM admissions (Q39-Q45) between 2012 and 2019 were collected using national databases.
Introduction: Postoperative pain management is crucial for patient recovery with Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) and Transversus Abdominis Plane Block (TAPB) emerging as potential techniques. We aimed to compare the analgesic efficacy of QLB and TAPB in patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair.
Methods: We performed a systematic review of Cochrane, EMBASE, and MEDLINE databases to identify randomized controlled trials comparing QLB and TAPB in patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines whether RAS oncogene mutation status affects the frequency of positive surgical margins in liver metastases from colorectal cancer.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of 19 studies involving 7,391 patients found no significant difference in positive resection margins between RAS-mutated and non-mutated patients.
- Despite the known prognostic implications of RAS mutations in colorectal cancer, the analysis suggests that RAS status does not influence the prevalence of positive margins during surgical resection.
