Total en bloc spondylectomy is a surgical technique cutting off tumors of spine and its satellite. Previous studies have shown that this technique could reduce postoperative recurrence rate of spinal tumor, but surgical indications are not unified. Wide application of spinal tumor surgical staging and life expectancy system make it more clear for surgery. However, it is difficult to carry out extensive operation for the characteristics of more bleeding, great difficulty and high risk. As for continuous improvement of TES technology, application of endoscopy and appearance of 3D printing artificial vertebral body could push the operation becoming mature.

Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin T-cell lymphoma diagnosed in patients with a history of breast implants. Most patients develop a periprosthetic effusion at early stages of disease while less common presentations include a palpable mass, severe capsular contracture, lymphadenopathy, or cutaneous erythema. Due to the complex nature of this disease, a multidisciplinary approach is necessary for optimal management, particularly in locally advanced disease or inoperable patients.

Background And Aim: This work aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of free-hand endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) for duodenal subepithelial lesions (SELs).
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 105 patients with duodenal SELs who underwent free-hand EFTR. Free-hand EFTR means no other devices (over-the-scope clip or full-thickness resection device) are required.

Introduction: Pancoast tumors encompass any tumor located on the lung apex, extending into structures in the thoracic inlet and, often, leading to the characteristic clinical syndrome. The main goal of this study is to analyze the response to multimodal treatment and outcome of patients with Pancoast tumors.
Materials And Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort single center study of patients with superior sulcus nonsmall cell lung carcinomas who underwent surgery between January of 2011 and February of 2022.

Background: Penile cancer is a rare malignancy treated via various surgical techniques guided by disease stage and grade with current guidelines suggesting partial or total penectomy for those with pT2 or greater. We report a case of a patient with pT2 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis who underwent circumcision with left partial-glansectomy and resection of preputial mass with good oncological control while providing good urinary and sexual function.
Case Description: An 82-year-old male presented to the clinic due to a mass that doubled in size in an 8-month timeframe.
Hemostasis is a critical aspect of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). While HoLEP offers superior outcomes compared to traditional techniques, effective intraoperative and postoperative bleeding control remains a challenge.
