Perceptions of Competition-Based Learning After a Brief Experience at a National Surgical Meeting
CONCLUSION: Participants described an overall lack of confidence in their MIS skills prior to the 2022-2023 Annual SAGES conference. Participants felt that this brief CBL experience, aided in the development of their MIS skills. Furthermore, this brief CBL experience may inspire learners to seek out further training of their MIS skills.PMID:37831491 | DOI:10.1177/15533506231207438 (Source: Surgical Innovation)

Design of a Miniature Observation Robot for Light Emitting Diode Irradiation and Indocyanine Green Fluorescence-emission Guided Lymph Node Monitoring in Operating Rooms
CONCLUSION: The proposed robot design is cost-effective and highly adjustable, enabling suitability for rapid and accurate detection of fresh lymph nodes during surgeries. The robot's capability to detect small lesions (<1 cm), as validated by phantom tests, holds promise for the detection of minute lymph nodes.PMID:37828758 | DOI:10.1177/15533506231206871 (Source: Surgical Innovation)

Development and Implantation of 3D Anatomically Tailored Polypropylene Mesh for Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair Designed on the Basis of CT Images (the ILAM Study)
CONCLUSIONS: The new mesh provides a better anatomic fit to the patients' inguinal region geometry. Mechanical stability is ensured by the multiple contact points between the implant and the tissues, which generate friction forces. Together with the possibility of shape design (proper overlap), the authors believe that there is no need for mesh fixation. If so, the use of such design meshes can change the guidelines in laparoendoscopic hernia repair in the future.PMID:37819833 | DOI:10.1177/15533506231208335 (Source: Surgical Innovation)

Impact of Preoperative Three-Dimensional Endoanal Ultrasound on the Surgical Outcome of Primary Fistula in Ano. A Multi-Center Observational Study of 253 Patients
CONCLUSION: The three-dimensional endoanal ultrasound preoperative evaluation may have a relevant impact on the outcome of a defined group of patients undergoing surgery for anal fistula, since the careful evaluation of ultrasound results could simplify the internal orifice intra-operative detection and improve the success rate.PMID:37776197 | DOI:10.1177/15533506231204821 (Source: Surgical Innovation)
