Robotic thoracic surgery: lessons learned from the first 1,000 procedures.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the thoracic robotic approach in a high-volume center regarding procedures and clinical outcomes after 1,000 procedures.

Methods: In a single-center subset of the Epithor® database, a prospective cohort database of French thoracic surgery, we analyzed procedural characteristics and clinical outcomes from February 2014 to April 2023. A surgical technique for lung surgery was conducted with a four-arm closed chest with the port access approach and vascular sewing and knotting were preferred over stapling.

Reassuring pregnancy outcomes in women with mild COL4A3-5-related disease (Alport syndrome) and genetic type of disease can aid personalized counseling.

Individualized pre-pregnancy counseling and antenatal care for women with chronic kidney disease (CKD) require disease-specific data. Here, we investigated pregnancy outcomes and long-term kidney function in women with COL4A3-5 related disease (Alport Syndrome, (AS)) in a large multicenter cohort. The ALPART-network (mAternaL and fetal PregnAncy outcomes of women with AlpoRT syndrome), an international collaboration of 17 centers, retrospectively investigated COL4A3-5 related disease pregnancies after the 20th week.

Post traumatic cerebral sinovenous thrombosis in children: A retrospective and multicenter study.

Context: Cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) is a rare but life-threatening condition in the pediatric population and there is no pediatric guidelines regarding anticoagulation for post traumatic CSVT.

Objective: This study aims to describe a cohort of children with post traumatic CSVT and the use of anticoagulant therapy in this population.

Methods: A multicenter retrospective study.
