Purpose: Although laparoscopic liver resection has been widely adopted, performing a pure laparoscopic right hepatectomy remains a challenging procedure. The aim of this report is to evaluate the efficiency of a pure laparoscopic right hepatectomy (PLRH) in the semi-prone position using the intrahepatic Glissonian approach and a modified hanging maneuver.
Methods: Pure laparoscopic right hepatectomy was performed in the semi-prone position with the use of an intrahepatic Glissonian approach and modified hanging maneuver for patients with primary liver cancer (n = 3) and metastatic liver cancer (n = 1).
Results: The intraoperative total blood loss was only 95-140 g (mean: 126.2 g). None of the patients required a blood transfusion, and no serious complications were encountered. The durations of the surgeries ranged from were 308 to 445 min (mean: 394.8 min). The postoperative hospital stay was 8-11 days (mean 9.5 days).
Conclusion: Pure laparoscopic right hepatectomy in the semi-prone position using the intrahepatic Glissonian approach and a modified hanging maneuver is thus considered to be a safe modality, which minimizes intraoperative bleeding.

Utility of a novel scoring system for difficulty of pure laparoscopic hepatectomy for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Despite the growing adoption of laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), there is no scoring system available designed to evaluate its surgical complexity. This paper aims to introduce a novel difficulty scoring system (DSS), designated as the Wei-DSS, exclusively tailored to assess the surgical difficulty of pure LH for ICC. We retrospectively collected clinical data from ICC patients who underwent pure LH at our institution, spanning from November 2018 to May 2024.

Introduction: The three-arm approach is mainly selected, despite the multiple robotic arms in da Vinci Xi. This type of surgical setup may provide less autonomy to the console surgeon and result in greater dependence on the bedside surgical assistant. Therefore, the 4th arm is used instead of the assist port, which is why we developed "pure" robot simple hysterectomy (PRSH) as a novel surgical technique, in which all ports are operated by robotic arms.

Objective: To compare surgical parameters and short-term outcomes between open radical cystectomy (ORC) and robotic radical cystectomy with total intracorporeal urinary diversion (icRARC).
Methods: Among the study period, 133 patients who underwent ORC and pelvic node dissection for bladder cancer (group 1) were matched and compared to 61 patients who underwent icRARC during the same period (group 2). The groups were matched 1:1 according to their propensity scores adjusted on their baseline demographics and disease characteristics.
Effect of Transpancreatic Mattress Suture With Polyglycolic Acid Sheet in Pancreatic Stump Closure for the Prevention of Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula in Robotic Distal Pancreatectomy.

Objective: Pancreatic stump closure in minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (DP) commonly utilizes staplers due to its simplicity; however, postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) remains the most frequent complication. We have developed a novel stump closure technique using a transpancreatic mattress suture with a polyglycolic acid sheet (TP method) under robotic DP. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the TP method.

Article Synopsis
- Collaborative surgery involving both endoscopists and surgeons is shown to be an effective method for less invasive removal of gastrointestinal tumors, addressing the limitations of traditional treatments.
- In a study of 131 patients with various lesions, 96% achieved complete collaboration, and 95% had successful tumor resections.
- Overall, the results suggest that this collaborative approach is safe, with only 4% experiencing significant postoperative issues, making it a viable alternative to conventional surgical methods.
