Robotic liver surgery is experiencing a period of great development, but some hurdles still need to be overcome. Parenchymal transection remains one of the most technically challenging steps. The lack of dedicated instruments and the flourishing of several techniques didn't allow surgeons to reach a standard technique so far.

Introduction: In recent years, significant progress has been made in treatment strategies for intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is a highly heterogeneous patient population requiring tailored therapies based on tumor characteristics.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive review of treatment approaches for intermediate-stage HCC, highlighting the evolution of treatment options over time. While chemoembolization remains the standard therapy for many patients, it has advanced to include combinations with systemic therapies, known as combination therapy, which is becoming the new standard of care for this group.

Ovarian cancer is a lethal disease due to late diagnosis and occurrence of drug resistance that limits the efficacy of platinum-based therapy. Drug resistance mechanisms include both tumor intrinsic and tumor microenvironment-related factors. A role for deubiquitinases (DUBs) is starting to emerge in ovarian cancer.

Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the first for primary liver tumors. In recent years greater therapeutic advancement was represented by employment of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) either in monotherapy or in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).
Areas Covered: Major attention was given to target therapies in the last couple of years, especially in those currently under phase II trials.

Targeting oncogene addictions have changed the history of subsets of malignancies and continues to represent an excellent therapeutic opportunity. Nonetheless, alternative strategies are required to treat malignancies driven by undruggable oncogenes or loss of tumor suppressor genes and to overcome drug resistance also occurring in cancers addicted to actionable drivers. The discovery of non-oncogene addiction (NOA) uncovered novel therapeutically exploitable "Achilles' heels".
