Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of two or three concomitant laparoscopic procedures in the same patient in one anesthesia session.
Patients And Methods: Data were reviewed for 32 patients for whom two or three concomitant laparoscopic surgeries at our institution were considered. Preoperative details, port position, surgical time, blood loss, complications, hospital stay, and postoperative recovery were analyzed.
Results: Thirty-two patients underwent two concomitant laparoscopic procedures and one patient three procedures. Surgical time was increased by 6 minutes because of the repositioning time of the patients. There were no complications during all procedures, and hospital stay was not increased, being limited only by the first procedure.
Conclusion: Planned laparoscopic surgery for two or three urologic malignancies is feasible in one anesthesia session, thereby reducing cost and overall hospital stay for the patient without any increased risk of perioperative morbidity. The decision to continue with the second or the third procedures depends on the successful conclusion of the former procedures in a reasonable time and without any complications.

The Importance of the Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and the Platelet-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) as Biomarkers for Differentiating Complicated and Uncomplicated Appendicitis.
Diagnostics (Basel)
December 2024
1st Department of Pediatric Surgery, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 54124 Thessaloniki, Greece.
Background: This specific study evaluates the accuracy of two ratios, Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte (N/L) and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte (P/L), as inflammatory markers on differentiating simple and complicated appendicitis preoperatively.
Methods: The medical records of 341 children, up to 16 years old, with suspected acute appendicitis (AA) who underwent appendectomy, laparoscopic or open, between January 2020 and December 2022, in our department, were retrospectively reviewed. Routine blood exams and the demographic details were obtained.
Shockpulse lithotripsy during laparoscopic ureterocalicostomy for renal stone concomitant with secondary ureteropelvic junction obstruction: A case report.

Department of Urology, Persahabatan General Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia. Electronic address:
Introduction: In adult patients, most ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) occurs secondarily. Concurrent UPJO with nephrolithiasis is not rare and simultaneous treatment by performing laparoscopic pyeloplasty and endoscopic stone removal has been suggested. In the case of atypical anatomy or previously failed pyeloplasty, a laparoscopic ureterocalicostomy is preferred.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSCH) during minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy for treating uterovaginal prolapse.
- Results showed no significant difference in overall recurrence of prolapse between the two methods, but TLH had lower odds of recurrence in multivariable analysis.
- TLH had a higher proportion of mesh exposures with lightweight mesh, but this finding wasn't significant after adjusting for other factors.
Laparoscopic Warshaw Procedure for Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasms in Children.
Am Surg
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Surgery, Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt, Nashville, TN, USA.
Background: Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) arising in the body or tail of the pancreas can be amenable to laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with or without concomitant splenectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy for SPN using the Warshaw technique as a means to preserve spleens in children.
Methods: We reviewed our database of SPN patients 19 years and younger (January 2006-December 2023).

Objectives: To show that robot-assisted laparoscopic cutaneous continent urinary diversion (RALCCUD) is feasible and safe; however, data on clinical outcomes in adults are lacking.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of all adults who underwent RALCCUD between 2017 and 2022 at a single tertiary reference centre.Patient characteristics, clinical information and perioperative outcomes were recorded.
