The anatomy of the retroperitoneum, including the high retroperitoneum, was studied as it appears with balloon dissecting techniques. We used fresh cadavers in this study. A relatively unknown fascia that is located between the lateral aspect of the perirenal fascia and the posterior parietal peritoneum, called the paraconal fascia, was a constant finding. This structure is important because it protects delicate retroperitoneal organs: the duodenum, pancreas, celiac axis, and superior mesenteric artery. Locating this fascia is an important step in the dissection of the high retroperitoneum, which is of interest in advanced videoendoscopic procedures involving retroperitoneal organs.

The main aim of this meta-analysis is to assess and compare the impact of two different surgical approaches, transperitoneal and retroperitoneal, on perioperative outcomes in robotic partial nephrectomy. A systematic search of MEDLINE, PubMed, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Database was conducted to identify relevant studies published between January 2000 and January 2025. Included were nine non-randomized controlled trials with a total of 2420 patients with matching propensity scores.

Background: An association between testicular cancer and Down syndrome has been reported by several studies. Down syndrome with cryptorchidism and retroperitoneal mixed germ cell tumours is rare, and yolk sac tumours are often considered secondary components of mixed germ cell tumours. Herein, we present a rare case of retroperitoneal mixed germ cell tumour with cryptorchidism accompanied by yolk sac tumour and seminoma in a patient with Down syndrome, along with its imaging features.

Background: Prone transpsoas lumbar interbody fusion (PTP) is a newer technique to treat various spinal disc pathologies. PTP is a variation of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) that is performed with the patient prone rather than in the lateral decubitus position. This approach offers similar benefits of lateral spinal surgery, which include less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and quicker recovery compared with traditional open spine surgery.

The patient was a male in his 60s who underwent a retroperitoneoscopic right nephrectomy for a diagnosis of right renal cell carcinoma (cT3aN0M0). During surgery, the patient was positioned in the left lateral recumbent, jackknife position. A blood test of the day after surgery showed an abnormally high CK level of 23,038 U/L.
