The transobturator tape procedure is a minimally invasive treatment for stress urinary incontinence. The widespread use of these slings has led to an increase in the number of rare complications, such as bladder erosion. Although in the last few years several minimally invasive techniques have been described, surgical management of such complications remains an open issue. We report a case of a bladder stone formed on a transobturator sling after unrecognized bladder perforation. Using pneumatic lithotripsy, the calculus was fragmented and the intravesical portion of the tape was successfully excised and removed by transurethral resection and endoscopic scissors. This minimally invasive transurethral technique is challenging but can be a safe and successful way to deal with such rare complications.

General Surgery, Cancer Center, Department of Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgery, Affiliated People's Hospital, Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital, Hangzhou Medical College, Hangzhou, 310014, Zhejiang, China.
Background And Aim: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly immunogenic tumor and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide with an increasing incidence. Therefore, the combination of immunotherapy with other approaches, such as anti-angiogenic agents and local area therapy, has become a new strategy for HCC treatment.
Methods: We searched PubMed and Web of Science and extracted publications relating to the radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and immunotherapy.

Purpose: In congenital scoliosis, the surgical strategy approach of hemivertebra excision, with or without instrumentation and fusion, is a common approach to correction of scoliosis. However, hemivertebra excisions are technically challenging, with potential complications including spinal cord injury, nerve root injury and cerebrospinal fluid leak. The purpose of this study was to determine whether correction of congenital scoliosis can be achieved using a posterior instrumentation/fusion-only approach without the need for hemivertebra excision.
