Minimally invasive endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery has become the gold standard procedure for the treatment of large kidney stones. However, one of the most important critical success factors is the level of precision during renal accession, which requires a long learning curve. Robot-assisted fluoroscopy-guided renal access has been developed to address this difficulty. We report here the case of a 63-year-old woman presenting with a very large renal calculus whose treatment was successful using a robot-assisted fluoroscopy-guided minimally invasive endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery with suction sheath. The entire stone was cleared, and the patient recovered well with an absence of adverse events.

Arthroscopic ligament repair has gained popularity as a minimally invasive alternative for addressing ankle instability, due to its minimally invasive nature, which offers significant advantages over traditional open procedures. These benefits include smaller incisions, reduced soft tissue dissection, and the ability to concurrently manage intra-articular pathology, contributing to its popularity among surgeons and patients alike. Despite these advantages, the procedure presents a range of technical challenges and potential complications that can impact patient outcomes.

Effects of Diverting Stoma Creation in Minimally Invasive Surgery for Rectal Cancer.

Department of Coloproctological Surgery, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
Objectives: In rectal cancer surgery, a diverting stoma (DS) is used to prevent severe anastomotic leakage (AL), peritonitis, reoperation, and longer hospitalization. DS creation has increased in the last few decades, without establishment of clear criteria for construction of a DS. Therefore, the goal of the study was to investigate the validity of DS construction based on risk factors for AL, as an approach to reduce the number of stoma creations.

Introduction: Total and sub-total lesions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are one of the most frequent and performance-limiting injuries to the knee joint within the active population. Early surgical management, often regarded as the primary management strategy, has recently been shown to have similar outcomes when compared with an initial rehabilitative approach followed by surgical ACL reconstruction if higher levels of functionality are needed. The primary objective of the study was to investigate the physiotherapists and orthopedic surgeons' "coper/non-coper" screening application in the clinical management of the patient after ACL injury.
