Completely Portal Robotic Lobectomy in lung cancer: Is subcostal specimen removal necessary?
CONCLUSION: We can conclude that performing a subcostal incision is not a sophisticated process, though it significantly prolongs the docking time. Although our study is based on a small group, we noticed that removing the specimen through the subcostal incision after CPRL-4 is potentially useful, has several advantages and it is a practical, feasible, and safe method.PMID:38374685 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2320510 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Laparoscopic Toupet-Sleeve gastrectomy in morbid obese patients with preoperative gastro-esophageal reflux: a 4-year follow-up cohort study
CONCLUSION: In our experience, with a 4-year follow-up, TS is associated with a significant risk of conversion, a moderate weight loss and a poor surgical success rate.PMID:38363708 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2320504 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Usage of rotational atherectomy and drug-coated balloon angioplasty for isolated popliteal artery lesions: two-year results of a retrospective study
CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular procedures using combined RA and DCB angioplasty seem to be effective alternative treatment modalities for the treatment of popliteal artery lesions with high rates of primary patency and freedom from TLR.PMID:38294176 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2313266 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Is extereme cytoreductive surgery beneficial to survival ın malignant peritoneal mesothelioma?
CONCLUSIONS: Rates of serious complications and morbidity are similar in patients undergoing eCRS compared to leCRS. In patients with high PCI and multiorgan involvement, complete cytoreduction can be achieved by performing eCRS, and survival results equivalent to those with low PCI can be achieved.PMID:38294331 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2301806 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Comparing the top 100 attacks in the Global Terrorism Database: high injury rate versus high fatality rate attacks
CONCLUSION: High injury rate incidents place a heavy burden on the health care system as the number of injuries is nearly ten times as high as the number of injuries in high fatality rate incidents. Epidemiological analysis of high impact terrorist events may contribute to counter-terrorism preparedness, to an increased focus on dealing with CBRN-events, and thus to a proper medical response to future terrorist events.PMID:38284807 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2312493 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)

Primary angiosarcoma of the Pancreas - A case Report and review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: Pancreatic angiosarcomas are very rare and prone to misdiagnosis. The formation of a more demarcated but high-grade tumour with necrosis is a feature that distinguishes angiosarcomas from ordinary carcinomas of this organ. Pathologic diagnosis is also highly challenging closely resembling undifferentiated carcinomas. Angiosarcomas are highly aggressive when they occur in the pancreas. Prompt diagnosis at an early stage is crucial as surgery with curative intent serves as the primary treatment approach.PMID:38265358 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2024.2309718 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)
