This article comments on the study by Peng , published in the , representing a notable advancement in hepatobiliary surgery. This article examines laparoscopic anatomical segment VIII resection, a challenging procedure due to the complex liver anatomy and difficulty in accessing deep-seated lesions. Peng and colleagues' experience with caudal and cranial approaches in 34 patients underscores the feasibility of these techniques while sparking debates about the optimal approach. Their study's strengths lie in technique standardization and comprehensive analysis, although its limitations highlight the need for further research. As minimally invasive liver surgery progresses, larger, prospective trials and integration of advanced technologies are essential for establishing best practices.

Background: Ever since the first description of the condition meralgia paresthetica in 1878, there have been multiple studies on anatomical variations of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN). More than 200 publications are available in various databases. This nerve is of interest not only to nerve surgeons but also to laparoscopic surgeons, bariatric surgeons, general surgeons, orthopedists, and spine surgeons.

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is an infrequent, but life-threatening, chronic granulomatous pyelonephritis. Surgical intervention can be challenging because of severe inflammation and often a fibrotic reaction that obliterates anatomical landmarks. In addition, a high rate of open conversion has been reported when performing a laparoscopic nephrectomy.

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome involves complete or partial agenesis of the female reproductive tract, leading to impaired menstruation and reproduction, or even clinical symptoms in certain cases. The absence of an anatomically intact reproductive tract usually misleads clinicians to ignore the possibility that common gynecological conditions may develop in MRKH patients, which is a rare but plausible scenario. In the present report, we present the rare case of a 49-year-old MRKH patient with uterine fibroid developing from rudimentary uterine tissue, one of only a few similar instances reported in medical literature.
