Laparoscopic ovariectomy has been advocated as the preferred sterilization method for dogs for some time. The same arguments and benefits can be extended for many zoologic mammals, including carnivores, suids, primates, lagomorphs, and large rodents. This article summarizes the benefits, equipment options, surgical technique, recovery, and complications associated with this sterilization procedure.

Background: Approaches to paediatric ovarian tumours vary. Cross-sectional imaging is reliable but not always performed. Laparoscopic tumourectomy, although popular, is not recommended by International Paediatric Surgical Oncology Society (IPSO); tumour spillage remains the main concern.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of two different approaches for administering quadratus lumborum block (QLB) in dogs undergoing laparoscopic ovariectomy, focusing on pain control during surgery.
  • A total of 15 female dogs were randomly assigned to either a lateral or latero-ventral approach for the QLB, with pain management strategies monitored throughout the procedure.
  • Results indicated that the lateral approach significantly reduced the need for additional pain relief during surgery compared to the latero-ventral approach, while all dogs had similar postoperative pain scores.

Background: Despite achieving endoscopic remission, over 20% of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients experience chronic abdominal pain. Visceral pain and the microbiome exhibit sex-dependent interactions, while visceral pain in IBD shows a sex bias. Our aim was to evaluate whether post-inflammatory microbial perturbations contribute to visceral hypersensitivity in a sex-dependent manner.

Is single-port laparoscopy or vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery the better option for salpingo-oophorectomy?

J Obstet Gynaecol Res

November 2024

Division of Gynecologic Oncology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Medipol University, Istanbul, Turkey.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to compare postoperative pain and recovery between two surgical methods, single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) and vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES), in patients undergoing oophorectomy.
  • Researchers analyzed data from patients who had the surgery between 2016 and 2023, focusing on factors like pain levels and recovery quality.
  • Results showed that patients in the vNOTES group experienced less pain and had a higher quality of recovery score compared to those in the SPLS group, even though operating times were similar for both methods.
