Fluorescent ureterography with indocyanine green in laparoscopic colorectal surgery: A safe method to prevent intraoperative ureteric injury
We report our method of visualisation of the ureter in two patients undergoing laparoscopic anterior resection and Hartmann procedure, respectively. After induction of anaesthesia, retrograde catheterisation of both ureters was performed by the urologist. 2.5 mg ICG was injected into each catheter at the start of the procedure. Both ureters were visualised very well throughout the procedure with no post-operative complications. This technique using ICG adds visual cues to make up for the loss of tactile feedback, making it a safe strategy to prevent intraoperative ureteric injury. (Source: Journal of Minimal Access Surgery)

Use of indocyanine green-aided real-time angiography in laparoscopic mesenteric cyst excision & #8211; A safer approach
Amol N Wagh, Nikhil Dhimole, Shirish R Bhagvat, Sachin S Sholapur, Samprati DoddamalappaJournal of Minimal Access Surgery 2022 18(2):317-319Mesenteric cysts are rare abdominal lesions in the mesentery of the intestine. Complete surgical excision is the only treatment which can be done by an open laparotomy or laparoscopic technique. Application of indocyanine green dye during the surgery helps in identification of the mesenteric vasculature, prevention and early repair of inadvertent iatrogenic vascular and bowel injury.

Simultaneous robotic resection of pheochromocytoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumour in an adult neurofibromatosis type 1 patient: A single-docking procedure using da Vinci XI platform
Jan Grosek, Aleš Tomažič, Maja Frelih, Simon HawlinaJournal of Minimal Access Surgery 2022 18(2):311-313 The risk of tumours, including pheochromocytoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumour is higher in patients with neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). The co-occurrence of these two tumours is rare, and most patients are symptomatic. In this case report we describe the case of an asymptomatic 42-year-old female patient with left adrenal mass and concurrent lesion in the jejunum, just distal to the ligament of Treitz. Both tumours were successfully simultaneously removed by totally robotic tr...

Complexities in the management of a Richter & #39;s supraumbilical hernia with colocutaneous fistula in a patient with morbid obesity: A case report with a review of literature
Sarfaraz Jalil Baig, Pallawi PriyaJournal of Minimal Access Surgery 2022 18(2):308-310Abdominal wall Richter's hernia is rare. The usual presentation is with irreducibility, obstruction and strangulation. Occasionally, enterocutaneous fistula containing small bowel has been reported. Management is frequently difficult due to emergency presentation and contamination. A 60-year-old male with a history of suture repair of umbilical hernia presented with faecal discharge from a long-standing recurrent hernia in the background of obesity and history of pulmonary embolism. There were no features of peritonitis or obst...

Risk factors for patient selection in ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A Single-centre experience
Conclusions: We suggest that pre-operative ASA grading III and leucocytes are risk factors for the fitness of ambulatory discharge after LC and intraoperative time. Male, BMI and CRP predict complicated surgery, and they should be considered preoperatively. (Source: Journal of Minimal Access Surgery)

Laparoscopic posterior rectopexy for complete rectal prolapse: Is it the ideal procedure for males ?
Conclusion: LPMR/LRR is a safe and effective treatment for ERP in men with very low recurrence rates. Randomised trials comparing modified LPMR with LVMR are needed to establish the better procedure in males. (Source: Journal of Minimal Access Surgery)

Is it a myth to perform blind apical wedge resection in primary spontaneous pneumothorax surgery to improve recurrence rates ?
Conclusion: In VATS of PSP, blind apical WR without bleb or bullae reduced prolonged air leakage but did not contribute to lowering the rate of pneumothorax recurrence. (Source: Journal of Minimal Access Surgery)

Readmissions after cholecystectomy in a tertiary UK centre: Incidence, causes and burden
Conclusions: Non-specific abdominal pain ± deranged LFT is the most common cause of readmissions/revisits in the centre. Readmissions after a cholecystectomy are a significant encumbrance. (Source: Journal of Minimal Access Surgery)

Tailored one anastomosis gastric bypass & #8211; Subgroup analysis of a randomised control trial based on bilio-pancreatic limb length with long-term results of 101 patients
Conclusions: Tailored BPL of 150 and 180 cm do not show any difference in the number of patients achieving >50% EWL or >20% TWL and so increasing limb length may not increase the number of good responders for weight loss. Although the resolution of T2DM and improvement of QoL score do not change significantly with increase in BPL length, mean serum iron levels may be lower with longer BPL.
