Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the gold standard for treating symptomatic cholelithiasis due to its minimally invasive nature and faster recovery times compared to traditional open surgery, but it is not without risks. A key component of this procedure is the creation of pneumoperitoneum. This is achieved by insufflating the abdomen with carbon dioxide (CO2).

Purpose: To evaluate the role of computed tomography-dacryocystography (CT-DCG) in the management of traumatic secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) and study its correlation with the intra-operative findings.
Methods: Retrospective interventional case series. Eighty-five lacrimal drainage systems (LDS) of 79 patients diagnosed with traumatic SALDO, who underwent pre-operative CT-DCG, between January 2019 and June 2023, were analyzed.

Background: Intraoperative imaging is critical for achieving precise cancer resection. Among available techniques, Raman spectral imaging emerges as a promising modality due to its high spatial resolution and signal stability. However, its clinical application for in vivo imaging is limited by the inherently weak Raman scattering signal.

Surgery, especially if minimally invasive, still plays a role in the diagnosis of suspect lymphoproliferative lesions in challenging locations such as the retroperitoneum. Fluorescence guidance may help in such cases facilitating the visualization of highly vascularized lesions. Our recent experience with a 71-year-old woman with retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy and suspected lymphoma supports this hypothesis.

Background: Donor lung procurement and preservation is critical for lung transplantation success. Unfortunately, the large variability in techniques impacts organ utilization rates and transplantation outcomes. Compounding this variation, recent developments in cold static preservation and new technological advances with machine perfusion have increased the complexity of the procedure.
