Objective: Simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (spktx) is the multiorgan transplantation. Thus various complications originated from transplanted organs and the complications that are not directly related to pancreatic or renal grafts could be developed at the same recipient.
Aim: The aim of this study is to explore whether there is a correlation between the severity of complications originated from transplanted pancreas, transplanted kidney and general surgical complication developed at the same spktx recipient.
Methods: Complications which developed among 112 spktx recipients were divided into three groups: related to the pancreatic graft (PTXc), to the renal graft (KTXc) and the general surgical complication (GNc). Severity of postoperative complications using modified Dindo-Clavien scale recipients was evaluated for each group. The correlation of severity of coexisting complications from different complication groups was analyzed.
Results: There were 22 recipients who developed the coexistence of complication between different complication groups. Complication originated from two and three complication groups developed 15 (68.2%) and 7 (31.8%) patients, respectively. There was not found correlation of the complication severity between: KTXc and GNc group, GNc and PTXc group, KTXc and PTXc group. The correlation (r = 0.84) of complication severity in recipients who developed concurrently complication from transplanted kidney, transplanted pancreas and general surgery complication was found.
Conclusion: The modified Dindo-Clavien scale is an useful methodology for the correlation description of complication severity in complex multiorgan transplantation such is spktx, especially when the complications originated from different, potentially independent from the pathophysiological point of view, sources.

Article Synopsis
- Bernese periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a procedure that helps manage symptoms and slow down degeneration in patients with acetabular dysplasia, but many will eventually need total hip arthroplasty (THA).
- This study aims to analyze the clinical outcomes, complications, and longevity of implants in patients who have THA after previously undergoing ipsilateral PAO.
- The research included a review of 113 THA surgeries, showing significant improvement in patient outcomes post-operation, though 7.1% experienced major complications, with a general trend of early failures occurring around 3.2 years after THA.
Laparoscopic floppy Nissen fundoplication with valve calibration: a safe and efficient procedure.

Department of Digestive and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery, Hôpital Saint Antoine, Assistance Publique Hôpitaux de Paris, 184 Rue du Faubourg Saint Antoine, 75012, Paris, France.
Purposes: A floppy Nissen fundoplication with valve calibration (FNF-VC) performed by laparotomy has been described, to reduce postoperative dysphagia and gas bloating after 360°-fundoplication. As laparoscopy is the gold standard for fundoplication, this study reports the first results of a modified FNF-VC adapted for laparoscopy (LFNF).
Methods: Seventy-two consecutive patients, who underwent LFNF for refractory GERD between 2012 and 2021, were included.
Modified dindo-clavien system for registration of perioperative complications in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy.

Article Synopsis
- Surgical procedures such as adenotonsillectomy are common in children, and understanding perioperative complications is crucial for safety and documentation.
- The study involved a retrospective evaluation of 402 children, revealing 124 complications (93 mild, 31 severe) categorized using the Dindo-Clavien system.
- Significant associations with complications included factors like long-term medication, additional diagnoses, and surgical duration, with severe complications linked to premature birth and ASA scores, highlighting the need for careful monitoring in at-risk groups.
The five-factor modified frailty index predicts adverse postoperative and chemotherapy outcomes in gynecologic oncology.

Introduction: Frailty is increasingly recognized as a predictor of postoperative morbidity and oncologic outcomes. Evidence of the predictive value of frailty assessment in gynecologic oncology remains sparse.
Objectives: To evaluate the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) comorbidity-based modified Frailty Index-5 (mFI-5) as predictor of severe postoperative complications, non-completion of chemotherapy and other patient-centered outcomes in gynecologic oncology patients >70 years-old undergoing surgery.
Simultaneous Complex Incisional Hernia Repair and Bariatric Surgery for Obese Patients: a Case Series of a Single-Center Early Experience.

Purpose: Obesity is associated with recurrence of complex incisional hernia repair (CIHR). Bariatric procedure during CIHR can improve recurrence rates without increasing morbidity. This study aimed to describe our results after CIHR in patients with obesity, in which a simultaneous bariatric procedure was performed.
