Department of Surgery, The Univeristy of Adelaide, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- The systematic review investigates the effectiveness and cost benefits of a selective histopathology approach for cancer detection, rather than the usual routine analysis of surgical specimens.
- It analyzed data from 11 studies involving over 26,000 patients who underwent various surgical procedures, identifying a low rate of cancer diagnoses but noting substantial cost savings.
- The conclusion emphasizes that while this selective method doesn’t significantly increase missed cancer diagnoses, there are concerns regarding legal protections for surgeons who opt out of routine histopathological analysis.

In laparoscopic surgery, a 30° lens is frequently used to obtain a wider field of view. However, it is difficult for inexperienced surgeons to maintain the horizontal state of the image in laparoscopic camera navigation (LCN). If there is a great deviation in the camera's horizontal axis, it may result in ambiguous anatomical recognition, which could impair patient safety.
