Background: The AA. compared the preliminary results of two different methods of inguinal hernioplasty: one using only the mesh (Lichtenstein) and the other one using both mesh and plug (Rutkow-Robbins).
Patients And Methods: Seventy consecutive patients were randomly allocated into two groups, 35 patients each one, to receive either a Licthenstein mesh or a Rutkow-Robbins plug and mesh for primary monolateral groin hernia.
Results: Follow-up was planned at 1 week, 3 weeks, 3 and 6 months after surgery. The Authors evaluated early and late complications i.e.: the presence of paraesthesia, postoperative pain and the incidence of recurrence. The results were analysed statistically using the Fisher and chi2 tests.
Conclusions: Data parameters did not show statistically significative differences between the two groups (p > 0.05). No recurrences were detected. The Authors concluded that no advantage may derivate by an additional plug to the single mesh hernia repair.

Hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is a heterogeneous joint disease with high radiographic and symptomatic prevalence. The diagnosis of HOA is based on clinical and radiographic features. The identification of potential biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, disease severity assessment, and therapeutic efficacy evaluation of НОА remains an active area of research.

Purpose: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most important complications that occurs after upper gastrointestinal surgery, registering rates of 20-30% after esophagectomy. The role of systemic inflammatory biomarkers to predict anastomotic leaks is controversial and needs systematization.
Methods: A systematic review based on the PRISMA guidelines criteria was performed.

Background: One-stage direct-to-implant (DTI) breast reconstruction is increasingly popular with the use of prepectoral reconstruction leading to increased demand for structural scaffolds. It is vital to determine if differences in safety profiles exist among scaffolds.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients in our breast cancer center undergoing DTI reconstruction.

The aim of this study is to present a case of laparoscopic treatment of perineal hernia in a patient after abdominoperineal resection od the rectum. We present the case of a 63-year-old woman who was operated on laparoscopically with a mesh sewn in at the level of the sacrum, iliac vessels and pubic symphysis. And covered with a peritoneal flap above the urinary bladder.

Optimal router node placement (RNP) is an effective method for improving the performance of wireless mesh networks (WMN). However, solving the RNP problem in WMN is difficult because it is NP-hard. As a result, this problem can only be solved using approximate optimization algorithms such as heuristics and meta-heuristics.
