Most surgical procedures in the past were performed through large incisions. Advancement of laparoscopic surgery has led to smaller incisions and reduction in most of the incision-related complications. However, laparoscopic surgery has its own complications. One of these complications is port site hernia which is an uncommon complication that can cause significant morbidity and requires an additional surgical procedure. Port site hernia following transperitoneal laparoscopic pyeloplasty is extremely rare. Herein, we present such a case in which the patient was managed conservatively. To our knowledge this is the first reported case in literature.

Impact of a lagoon with high anthropic activity on a World Heritage Site.

The Ichkeul-Bizerte Lagoon Complex (IBLC), a critical ecosystem for local biodiversity, faces a pressing threat due to climate change and severe pollution. Despite past conservation efforts, pollution persists, particularly in the Bizerte Lagoon. This study investigated the impact of water dynamics and climatic conditions on heavy metal contamination in the IBLC's sediments.

Background: Persisting post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) is a condition characterized by prolonged recovery from a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and compromised quality of life. Previous literature, on the basis of small sample sizes, concludes that there are several risk factors for the development of PPCS.
Objective: We seek to identify protective and risk factors for developing slow recovery or persisting post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) by analyzing medical history, contact sport level, setting, and the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool (SCAT) and Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI-18) assessments at baseline and post-injury.
Codeine 3-O-demethylase catalyzed biotransformation of morphinan alkaloids in Escherichia coli: site directed mutagenesis of terminal residues improves enzyme expression, stability and biotransformation yield.

The cultivation of opium poppy is the only commercially viable source of most morphinan alkaloids. Bioproduction of morphinan alkaloids in recombinant whole-cell systems provides a promising alternate source of these valuable compounds. The enzyme codeine 3-O-demethylase can transform morphinan alkaloids by O-demethylation and has been applied in single step biotransformation reactions or as part of larger biosynthetic cascade, however, the productivity for these reactions remains low and suboptimal enzyme properties could be improved.

Chyle leak is a rare complication following nephrectomy and may result in chylous ascites. A patient in her 70s was diagnosed with a left renal tumour and underwent a robotic-assisted radical nephrectomy. She presented 9 days post discharge with chyle leaking from the left port site wound, which settled after 2 days of inpatient monitoring.

French Guiana is a "transcultural world" in its own right, with its indigenous "inland" populations, highly isolated from the healthcare system, more affected by chronic cardiometabolic and infectious diseases than either the coast or mainland France. Transcultural clinics and therapeutic patient education (TPE) therefore play a key role. French Guiana is a pioneer in TPE, health mediation and the practice of "outreach" via local hospitals, delocalized specialty consultations and so on.
