Currently, 11- to 14-week-detailed anatomic surveys are generally reserved for at-risk populations because of the lower incidence of major fetal anomalies in low-risk populations. Until recently, such standard reflects, in part, the fact that pregnant persons retain the option of abortion even if the initial anatomy scan was in the second trimester of pregnancy. However, on June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe, and many states subsequently lowered the gestational age at which abortions can legally be performed. Here, we argue for a reconsideration of limitations on first-trimester scans to preserve pregnant persons' reproductive options, particularly in those states that have imposed laws limiting access to abortion. Moreover, we acknowledge and discuss some of the challenges that will be associated with this approach.

This article aims to demonstrate the uniportal full endoscopic surgery for treating complex anterior and posterior spinal pathology at the T1-2 level, offering a invasive, accessible, stable, and versatile approach to challenging anatomical situations. Uniportal full endoscopic surgery is one of the most minimally invasive spinal surgeries, utilizing slim, elongated, and compact instruments that provide access to lesions from any angle and distance. This characteristic makes the technique especially suitable for hard, such as the T1-2 level, where traditional approaches may be limited or difficult.

Introduction: Multilocular cystic nephroma is an uncommon condition with only few cases described in the literature, although its benign nature is well-recognized.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a 28-year-old male patient who presented with a right flank pain, imaging suspected a multicystic renal cell carcinoma. A radical nephrectomy was performed view the size of the cyst and the high tumor complexity, which histology confirmed the diagnosis of multilocular cystic nephroma.
