With the advancement of laparoscopic equipment and growing operational experience, the number of case reports or descriptions of series of nephrectomies performed in patients with the preoperative diagnosis of venous system involvement has become more frequent in the medical literature. In this article, we present the case of a laparoscopic nephrectomy performed with retroperitoneoscopic access for preoperatively diagnosed renal vein and vena cava thrombus. Operation time was 130 minutes and blood loss was 50 mL. The weight of the specimen was 460 g. The postoperative course was uncomplicated. The pathology report revealed pT3b clear cell cancer (Fuhrman grade 2) with negative margins on the venous cutting line.

Impact of aspirin on biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after robot assisted radical prostatectomy in a multicenter retrospective cohort study.

Department of Urology, Kyoto University School of Medicine, 54 Shougoinkawahara-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto, 606-8507, Japan.
This study evaluated the impact of aspirin on the biochemical recurrence (BCR) rate following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients. A database search identified patients who underwent RARP for pT2-3N0M0 disease at any of 25 centers between 2011 and 2022, categorized into aspirin (n = 350) and control groups (n = 5857). Adjustment by 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) and Mahalanobis distance matching (MDM) created 350 matched pairs.

Objectives: To explore new metrics for assessing radical prostatectomy difficulty through a two-stage deep learning method from preoperative magnetic resonance imaging.
Methods: The procedure and metrics were validated through 290 patients consisting of laparoscopic and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy procedures from two real cohorts. The nnUNet_v2 adaptive model was trained to perform accurate segmentation of the prostate and pelvis.
The Role of Patient-Controlled Epidural Analgesia in the Short-Term Outcomes of Laparoscopic-Assisted Gastrectomy in Elderly Gastric Cancer Patients.

Introduction: Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) and patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) constitute two major advances in pain management after major abdominal surgery. However, the role of PCIA or PCEA has not been particularly studied in elderly patients with gastric cancer. The aim of this study is to make a comparison between PCIA and PCEA in terms of their performance on short-term outcomes in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy.

Objective: Colorectal cancer (CRC) surgeries can be performed using either laparoscopic or open laparotomy approaches. However, the long-term outcomes based on tumor location and age remain unclear. This study compared the long-term outcomes of laparoscopic and laparotomy surgeries in patients with CRC, focusing on tumor location and age to identify suitable subgroups and determine an optimal cut-off age.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of general anesthesia combined with transversus abdominis plane block on postoperative sleep disorders in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor surgery.
Methods: For elderly patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumors, we recruited 94 patients, aged 65-80, who were scheduled for radical laparoscopic surgery. Using the random number table method, the patients were randomly divided into two groups, the general anesthesia group (group GA) and the general anesthesia combined with transversus abdominis plane block group (group GT).
