An Inanimate Intracorporeal Anastomosis Model With Real-Time Force Feedback: An Initial Study.

J Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Amsterdam UMC, Location Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Cancer Center Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Introduction: Laparoscopic intestinal anastomosis requires specific technical skills and should be trained in a safe simulation environment before performing surgery in daily practice. However, anastomosis simulation training with objective feedback is not widely available. This study aimed to analyze a laparoscopic intestinal anastomosis training task that utilizes objective force, motion, and time measurements.

Objective: The aim of this study was to comparatively analyze the therapeutic effects of uterine artery embolization (UAE) and laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) on uterine fibroids to determine which treatment method is more beneficial for patients.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 396 patients who underwent UAE (n = 153) or LM (n = 243) treatment from April 2010 to September 2019. After 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM), a comparative analysis was conducted on surgical trauma magnitude, postoperative recovery time, improvement in associated symptoms and quality of life, surgical adverse events, recurrence rates, and further interventions.

Cost analysis of laparoscopic total versus open total gastrectomy in gastric cancer.

Langenbecks Arch Surg

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universität Berlin and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Campus Charité Mitte and Campus Virchow-Klinikum, Augustenburger Platz 1, 13353, Berlin, Germany.

Purpose: Despite ongoing discussions concerning clinical equivalence of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) compared to open total gastrectomy (OTG) in gastric cancer (GC) surgery, complementary evidence regarding financial implications is sparse. The aim of this study was to compare hospital associated expenses and perioperative outcomes between both approaches.

Methods: Clinicopathological and financial data from 80 consecutive GC patients undergoing LTG or OTG between 2015 and 2022 were investigated.

Background: Obesity is a significant risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), with metabolic bariatric surgery offering potential renal benefits. However, there is limited comparative data on the impact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) versus laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on renal function in individuals with obesity without end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The objective of this study was to compare renal function outcomes following RYGB and LSG in patients with obesity, focusing on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum creatinine, albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), and serum cystatin C.
