Objective: Transvaginal natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) has been widely used in laparoscopic surgery due to its benefits. However, laparoscopic radical cystectomy (LRC) with NOSES has rarely been reported.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of 25 patients who underwent 3D LRC with NOSES from November 2014 to November 2019 was performed. The clinical and perioperative related data, peri and postoperative complications, and oncologic outcomes were recorded.
Results: Surgery was successfully completed in 25 patients, and none were converted to open surgery. Mean total operative time was 294.1 ± 48.80 min. Mean NOSES time was12 ± 6.48 min. The median post-op hospital stay was 10.5 d (range 6-27 d). The median visual analog pain score on post-op day 1, 2, and 3 was 2, 2, and 1, respectively. Thirteen patients had 30-day complications (3 had Clavien grade I and 11 had Clavien grade II). Pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20) was 9.8 ± 1.9 after three months (compared with pre-PFDI-20, P = 0.06) and 9.3 ± 1.2 after six months (compared with pre-PFDI-20, P = 0.15). At the mean follow-up of 24.7 ± 12.05 months (range 11-60 months), one patient (4%) had recurrence, two (8%) had metastasis, and one (4%) died.
Conclusion: Transvaginal NOSES in 3D LRC is safe and feasible. Understanding the female vagina anatomy and comprehending the techniques is conducive to avoid incision-related complications. NOSES is minimally invasive with good cosmetic outcomes with few surgical complications or affecting pelvic floor function.

Enhancing repeatability of follicle counting with deep learning reconstruction high-resolution MRI in PCOS patients.
Sci Rep

Department of Radiology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, No. 238 Jiefang Road, Wuchang District, Wuhan, 430060, China.
Follicle count, a pivotal metric in the adjunct diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), is often underestimated when assessed via transvaginal ultrasonography compared to MRI. Nevertheless, the repeatability of follicle counting using traditional MR images is still compromised by motion artifacts or inadequate spatial resolution. In this prospective study involving 22 PCOS patients, we employed periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) and single-shot fast spin-echo (SSFSE) T2-weighted sequences to suppress motion artifacts in high-resolution ovarian MRI.

Article Synopsis
- The study details a modified transvaginal repair technique (V-NOTES) for treating apical vesicovaginal fistulas (VVFs) in 26 patients, with 17 undergoing the V-NOTES procedure between January 2020 and January 2023.
- Outcomes showed an 88.2% success rate, with an average operative time of 104.2 minutes and minimal blood loss (10.45 ml).
- No major complications arose, and even initially failed repairs were successful on subsequent attempts, indicating that V-NOTES is an effective and safe treatment option for apical VVFs.

Introduction: Transvaginal natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) is an innovative and feasible approach for left-sided colorectal resections in females. This study aimed to report our experience with transvaginal NOSES for left-sided laparoscopic colorectal resections.
Patients And Methods: We analysed data for all patients with transvaginal extraction performed for left-sided laparoscopic colorectal resections between 2011 and 2021 at a tertiary teaching hospital in Taiwan.

Background: Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS) uses the minimum possible number of ports or small-sized ports in laparoscopic surgery. The combination of RPLS and natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) minimizes the procedural damage.
Methods: A total of 17 patients diagnosed with right colon cancer were included: 5 patients in the RPLS + NOSE group and 12 patients in the conventional laparoscopic surgery (CL) + mini-laparotomy (ML) group.
