Antenor Orrego Private University, School of Medicine, Trujillo, La Libertad, Peru.
Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered safe; however, it is not free from complications, such as bile duct injuries, bleeding, and infection of the surgical site.
Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of two prediction tools, the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) calculator and the surgical Apgar, in predicting post-cholecystectomy complications.
Methods: A cross-sectional, analytical, and comparative study was conducted on patients over 18 years old diagnosed with acute cholecystitis who underwent open or laparoscopic cholecystectomy at the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo between 2015 and 2019.
Effects of Variable Ventilation on Gas Exchange in an Experimental Model of Capnoperitoneum: A Randomized Crossover Study.

From the Unit for Anaesthesiological Investigations, Department of Anaesthesiology, Pharmacology, Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland.
Background: The rapid advancement of minimally invasive surgical techniques has made laparoscopy a preferred alternative because it reduces postoperative complications. However, inflating the peritoneum with CO2 causes a cranial shift of the diaphragm decreasing lung volume and impairing gas exchange. Additionally, CO2 absorption increases blood CO2 levels, further complicating mechanical ventilation when the lung function is already compromised.

Department of Abdominal Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium.
Background: Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the treatment of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis with medical refractory disease or dysplasia. The aim of this research was to describe the evolution of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis surgery and surgical outcomes over a three-decade interval in a high-volume referral centre.
Methods: All consecutive patients undergoing ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis between 1990 and 2022 at the University Hospitals of Leuven were retrospectively included.

Department of Gastroenterology, Shengli Oilfield Central Hospital, Dongying, China.
Introduction: Gastric glomus tumor is a rare submucosal mesenchymal tumor with no distinct features on endoscopy. In clinical practice, it is often treated with laparoscopic partial gastrectomy. Here, we report a case of gastric glomus tumor successfully resected using a combination of gastroscopy and laparoscopy.
