Background: The third-generation streamlined liner of the pharynx airway (SLIPA-3G) is a new-generation supraglottic airway device (SAD) that is non-cuffed and disposable, with a sealing pressure that varies dynamically with the airway pressure. This study compared the SLIPA-3G with the laryngeal mask airway supreme (LMAS) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods: Two hundred and twenty patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly allocated to either the SLIPA-3G group or the LMAS group. Data were collected on the patients' hemodynamic parameters at different time points, ease of insertion, fiberoptic view, oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) at different time points and SAD-related complications.

Results: The mean OLP immediately after device placement in the LMAS group was significantly higher than that of the SLIPA-3G group (31.34 ± 6.99 cmHO vs.28.94 ± 6.01 cmHO, P = 0.008, 95% CI 0.62-4.17). The OLPs of the two groups were not significantly different after the induction of a pneumoperitoneum until the end of surgery. The OLP increased gradually through the course of the operation in the SLIPA-3G group (P value = 0.035) but not in the LMAS group (P value = 0.945). There was no significant difference between the two groups in hemodynamic parameters, insertion time and success rate, fiberoptic view and complication rate.

Conclusions: The SLIPA-3G and LMAS were associated with comparable OLPs, hemodynamic parameters, ease of insertion, fiberoptic views and complication rates when used during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The SLIPA-3G can be used as an effective alternative to the LMAS in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries.

Actinomycosis is a chronic, granulomatous infection caused by species, a group of anaerobic, gram-positive bacteria commonly found in the human oral cavity, gastrointestinal, and female genital tracts. Although it predominantly affects the cervicofacial region, rare manifestations such as gallbladder actinomycosis can occur. This report presents a case of gallbladder actinomycosis in a 61-year-old man who presented with a two-week history of right upper quadrant pain, jaundice, nausea, and vomiting.

Laparoscopic surgery for gallstone ileus.

We present a case of a woman in her 70s who arrived in the emergency department with signs of small-bowel obstruction. CT scanning revealed acute cholecystitis with a cholecystoduodenal fistula, pneumobilia and small-bowel obstruction possibly secondary to gallstone ileus although no radio-opaque gallstones were seen. The patient underwent an emergency operation and intra-operative findings revealed mechanical small-bowel obstruction of the proximal jejunum where a 4×2 x 3 cm gallstone was impacted.

The biliary system exhibits significant anatomical variations, which pose challenges for most surgeons during cholecystectomy. Among these variations, a true left-sided gallbladder (LSG) is an uncommon finding. In such cases, the gallbladder is located to the left of the round ligament.

Background: Acute cholecystitis (AC) is increasingly common and imposes a burden on healthcare systems, particularly in the elderly population. While laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the definitive treatment, percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is often preferred based on various factors. The treatment of elderly patients requires a multidisciplinary approach that carefully assesses surgical risks due to age-related changes and comorbidities.
