Laparoscopic repair of perforated duodenal ulcers is safe and effective in centers with experience and increasingly performed by laparoscopic surgeons. However, the role of laparoscopy for the management of large duodenal perforations (>1 cm) is unclear. To date, no experience has been reported with emergency laparoscopic repair of large perforations for gastroduodenal ulcers. The commonest reason for conversion to open surgery is a perforation size of more than 1 cm. This paper reports a case of a large duodenal perforation due to a nasogastric tube in a 26-year-old male who had undergone a tracheostomy, following a cut-throat injury. This large perforation was successfully diagnosed and repaired laparoscopically. This is probably the first paper in the English literature to report duodenal perforation due to a nasogastric tube in an adult and also the first report of a successful laparoscopic repair of a large duodenal perforation.

The impact of vascular injuries on the management of bile duct injury following laparoscopic cholecystectomy- insights from a prospective study.
HPB (Oxford)

Department of Surgical Gastroenterology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna, India.
Background: Our study aimed to compare the clinical presentation and outcomes of post-cholecystectomy bile duct injuries (BDI) with and without arterial injuries.
Methods: A prospective analysis of 123 patients with post-cholecystectomy BDI between July 2018 and January 2022 was performed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the impact of vascular injuries on perioperative complications and long-term outcomes after delayed repair.

Purpose: Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a promising technique for postoperative pain control. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the TAP block in managing postoperative pain after laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair.
Methods: In this retrospective study, medical records of patients who had received ultrasonography-guided TAP blocks after surgery from January 2019 to August 2023 were reviewed and compared with those of patients who had not received.
Robotic Laparoscopy and Endoscopy Cooperative Surgery for Primary Appendiceal Mucinous Carcinoma Masquerading as Bladder Cancer: A Case Report.
Asian J Endosc Surg
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.
Bladder invasion by appendiceal cancer resulting in a vesico-appendiceal fistula is an uncommon occurrence. Both radical tumor removal and functional preservation of the bladder are desirable in the surgical treatment of this disease, and there are few reports on detailed surgical methods. Here, we describe a case of primary appendiceal mucinous carcinoma with bladder invasion treated with robotic laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery (RECS).

Aim: This study compared the short- and long-term efficacy of simple suture with omental patch repair (Graham patch) in open surgery versus laparoscopic omental patch repair (LOPR) in treating patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-associated gastric ulcers with perforation, and analyzed the incidence of complications.
Methods: The clinical information of patients who had stomach perforation repair surgery in Deqing People's Hospital between January 2021 and January 2022 was retrospectively analyzed.
Importance: Routine preoperative blood tests and electrocardiograms before low-risk surgery do not prevent adverse events or change management but waste resources and can cause patient harm. Given this, multispecialty organizations recommend against routine testing before low-risk surgery.
Objective: To determine whether a multicomponent deimplementation strategy (the intervention) would reduce low-value preoperative testing before low-risk general surgery operations.
