Background/aim: To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic and robotic total proctocolectomy (TPC) for ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC).

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the postoperative outcomes of TPC in 13 patients with UC-CRC between January 2011 and December 2021. Laparoscopic TPC was performed in 10 patients. TPC consisted of two procedures: ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IAA) and TPC with end ileostomy. Using the da Vinci Xi platform with six ports, robotic TPC and abdominal perineal resection (APR) were performed in two and one patients, respectively. Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) was performed using the perineal approach in five patients.

Results: UC-CRC was located in the transverse colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, and anal canal in 1, 1, 10, and 1 patients, respectively. IAA, TPC with end ileostomy, and APR were performed in nine, three, and one patients, respectively. Postoperative complications included colitis, portal vein thrombosis, and liver dysfunction, without mortality. The pathological stages were 0, I, IIa, IIIb, and IIIc in five, four, one, two, and one patients, respectively. The tumors were completely resected in all cases. Eleven patients with pStages 0, I, and II survived without recurrence; however, two patients with pStage III died of cancer recurrence.

Conclusion: This study demonstrated the feasibility of laparoscopic and robotic TPC in patients with UC-CRC. However, long-term outcomes in terms of oncology and patient quality of life must be investigated in future large-scale studies.

Background: This study aimed to explore the feasibility and safety of using 5G communication technology for domestic surgical robots to perform ultra-remote hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of five cases of ultra-remote domestic robot-assisted laparoscopic hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery completed at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine (referred to as Hangzhou, Zhejiang) and Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Alaer Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine (referred to as Alaer city, Xinjiang) from February to September 2023. The main system of the operating desk at Hangzhou, Zhejiang, uses 5G network signal transmission to remotely control the bedside operating system at Alaer City, Xinjiang.

Objectives: To show that robot-assisted laparoscopic cutaneous continent urinary diversion (RALCCUD) is feasible and safe; however, data on clinical outcomes in adults are lacking.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of all adults who underwent RALCCUD between 2017 and 2022 at a single tertiary reference centre.Patient characteristics, clinical information and perioperative outcomes were recorded.

Background: Robotic surgery may have shown advantages over conventional laparoscopic surgery, but the da Vinci SP system, which utilizes a single incision, has had limited use in gastric cancer surgery. This study aims to evaluate the short-term outcomes of a novel hybrid technique, minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgery (MILAR), with the da Vinci SP system for gastric cancer.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 23 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer using the MILAR technique with the da Vinci SP system between May and October 2024.

Outcomes of Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy in Ia1-Ib1 Cervical Cancer Patients: A Multi-Center Study with 10 Years' Experiences in the Real World.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) outcomes in early-stage, low-risk cervical cancer patients compared to open abdominal radical hysterectomy (OARH).
  • In low-risk cases, 5-year overall and progression-free survival rates were similar for LRH (98.6% OS, 97.6% PFS) and OARH (99.3% OS, 98.4% PFS), with no significant differences found.
  • Conversely, in high-risk patients, LRH showed lower survival rates compared to OARH, indicating the need for careful surgical approach selection based on risk factors and imaging prior to surgery.

Department of Fetal & Neonatal Surgery, The Affiliated Children's Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University (Hunan Children's Hospital), Changsha, 410007, China.

To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic-assisted Soave procedure of Hirschsprung's Disease (HSCR) in neonates and infants within 3 months of age. Patients with HSCR who were admitted to the Department of Fetal and Neonatal Surgery of Hunan Children's Hospital from June 2012 to July 2020 and underwent laparoscopic-assisted Soave procedure were selected. The clinical manifestations, surgical procedures, postoperative fecal contamination, constipation, enterocolitis, and defecation function were analyzed.
