Background: The robot-assisted neurosurgical procedures have recently benefited of the evolution of intraoperative imaging, including mobile CT unit available in the operating room. This facilitated use paved the way to perform more neurosurgical procedures under robotic assistance. Endoscopic third ventriculocisternostomy requires both a safe transcortical trajectory and a smooth manipulation.
Method: We describe our technique of robot-assisted endoscopic third ventriculocisternostomy combining robotic assistance and intraoperative CT imaging.
Conclusion: Robot-assisted endoscopic third ventriculocisternostomy using modern intraoperative neuroimaging can be easily implemented and prevented erroneous trajectory and abrupt endoscopic movements, reducing surgically induced brain damages.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the use of the endoscopic drill (ED) with the extra-endoscopic trephine (EET) in treating lumbar disc herniations with regard to efficiency, safety, and clinical outcomes.
Methods: From January 2022 and June 2023, 136 patients who had the single-level LDH and received the transforaminal endoscopic surgery were divided into two groups according to the foraminoplasty technique: the EET group (n = 69) and the ED group (n = 67). Surgery-related parameters, complications, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS, 0-10), and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI, 0-100%) were assessed and compared among two groups.

Background: Hepatolithiasis frequently presents with recurring cholangitis and complications. Oddi sphincter-preserved cholangioplasty with hepatico-subcutaneous stoma (OSPCHS), introduced in 1993, has shown favorable long-term results. Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) is commonly used, but its impact on OSPCHS outcomes remains unclear.

Objective: Globally, over 50% of the population is affected by , yet research on its prevalence and impact in patients with obesity undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of infection in individuals with obesity undergoing LSG, evaluate the percentage of postoperative staple-line leaks, and explore the potential link between infection and staple-line leaks.
Methods: This retrospective analysis assessed adult patients with class III obesity who underwent LSG between 2015 and 2020 at a tertiary care hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
