Bowel obstruction by sigmoid strangulation as complication after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding
CONCLUSION: Although less often performed, knowledge of LAGB complications can be of importance. We believe that, the present strangulation of the sigmoid by the LAGB tubing is the world's first ever case reported. Nevertheless, when it is still proposed to selected patients, an adequate length of the intra-abdominal tubing could reduce the risk of loop formation and prevent this kind of obstruction by internal hernia.PMID:37409986 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2023.2234146 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Factors Influencing Postoperative Recurrence of Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Conclusion: The presence of LVI, VI, VPI, and STAS are negative risk factors for recurrence and DFS in all patients and in patients with AC. In patients with SCC, the diagnosis of SCC itself and the presence of STAS were risk factors for recurrence and DFS. Morover, the risk of distant recurrence is higher in the presence of LVI or VI, and the risk of locoregional recurrence in the presence of STAS is higher.PMID:37381717 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)
