Background: Complete mesocolon excision (CME) and D3-lymphadenectomy concepts have gained popularity for the surgical treatment of right colon cancer in comparison to the conventional laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (CLRH). The rationale of CME is to dissect the embryological planes between the mesenteric plane and the parietal fascia to remove the mesentery within a complete envelope of mesenteric fascia and visceral peritoneum that contains lymph nodes, the central vascular ligation, and adequate bowel length to remove involved pericolic lymph nodes in the longitudinal direction, having as the main goal to improve the oncological results. CME with D3-lymphadenectomy is challenge since involves the excision of the lymph adipose tissue covering the medial edge of the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) (trunk of Gillot, TG), and the gastrocolic trunk of Henle (GTH).

Background: Laparoscopic approaches and robot-assisted operations are used for colorectal cancer surgery because of their minimal invasiveness. 1 However, changes in intra-abdominal pressure during laparoscopy can lead to cardiovascular complications in compromised patients; 2 obesity and intraabdominal adhesions may further interfere with laparoscopic procedures. The retroperitoneal approach may facilitate minimally invasive surgery, even in patients with comorbidities.

Introduction: Traumatic duodenal injuries are complex in nature and pose major challenges to trauma surgeons. These injuries are associated with high mortality rates ranging from 18% to 30% and require prompt, comprehensive care. Traumatic injury induces a hypercatabolic state that mobilizes body energy stores, leading to muscle wasting, delayed healing, and potential multi-organ failure.

Purpose: Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor in children under 5 years, often surrounds visceral arteries. This study aimed to analyze the working space provided by standardized surgical techniques at key arterial landmarks in adult cadavers.
Methods: We assessed in eight adult cadavers the mobilization of the left colon, spleen and pancreas, right colon, duodenum and mesenteric root, access to the bursa omentalis.
