New technologies have been developed to make laparoscopic cholecystectomy less invasive through single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), however this approach has its own limitations. Single incision robotic surgery (SIRC) is designed to overcome them. The concerns that limit adoption of this technology are attributed increases in costs, prolonged learning curves and surgical times. Here, we provide a literature review as well as our own experience with SIRC, with the intent to clarify these important concerns.

Lateral abdominal wall hernias after coughing: a single center experience.
Hernia
December 2024
Department of Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Center for Abdominal Core Health Cleveland Clinic Foundation, 9500 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, OH, 44195, USA.
Purpose: Forceful coughing is assumed to be an uncommon etiology for lateral abdominal wall hernias. The literature regarding this topic is very limited and there is a lack of consensus in management, both operative and non-operative. We aim to report our center's experience in repair of lateral abdominal wall hernias secondary to vigorous coughing.

December 2024
Department of Colorectal Surgery, Tochigi Cancer Center, 4-9-13 Yohnan, Utsunomiya, Tochigi, 320-0834, Japan.
Purpose: Recent findings suggest that utilizing negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) concurrently with stoma closure may decrease the risk of incisional surgical site infection (iSSI). However, the specific impact of NPWT on iSSI after stoma closure remains unclear. This study investigated the impact of NPWT on SSI after stoma closure.

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
December 2024
Carolinas Medical Center, Charlotte, NC.
Background: Concurrent panniculectomy with abdominal wall reconstruction (CP-AWR) as a single-stage operation has reported increased complications, but constant quality improvement can improve results. This study describes outcomes for 21 years, impacted by evidence-based-practice changes.
Methods: Prospectively maintained database was reviewed for CP-AWR and separated by surgery date: "early" (2002-2016) and "recent" (2017-2023).
TYTOCARE™ home telemonitoring device after radical cystectomy to optimise postoperative outcomes.
BJU Int
December 2024
Division of Urology, Department of Oncology, San Luigi Gonzaga Hospital, University of Turin, Orbassano, Italy.
Objectives: To evaluate the role of the TYTOCARE™ telemedicine programme for home telemonitoring during the early postoperative period following radical cystectomy (RC) in a prospective single-centre study.
Materials And Methods: The study included patients aged <80 years with internet access who underwent RC at our institution between March 2021 and August 2023. Upon discharge, patients were monitored at home using the TYTOCARE™ telemedicine system.

World Neurosurg
December 2024
Chief, Division of neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, Howard University Hospital, 2041 Georgia Ave, Washington, DC, USA.
Background: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has been employed for post-surgical wound management across various disciplines, including spinal surgery. However, its efficacy in reducing wound infection rates following posterior thoracolumbar spine surgery remains uncertain.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted at a single institution, examining 266 patients who underwent posterior thoracic, lumbar, or thoracolumbar spine surgery performed by one neurosurgeon.
