Maximum Diameter of the Gallbladder Determined Presurgically Using Computed Tomography as a Risk Factor for Difficult Emergency Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in Patients With Mild to Moderate Acute Cholecystitis
Background: Early or emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) was recommended in the 2018 Tokyo Guidelines for patients with mild to moderate acute cholecystitis (AC). Although surgical difficulty is frequently encountered during these surgeries, risk factors for predicting surgical difficulties have not been fully investigated, especially based on computed tomography (CT) findings. Materials and Methods: We investigated 72 patients who underwent emergency LC with mild (n=45) to moderate (n=27) AC. Patients who previously underwent presurgical percutaneous or endoscopic biliary drainage were excluded from thi...

The Omental Plug: A Novel Management Approach of Concomitant Ventral Hernias During Bariatric Surgery
Conclusion: The omental plug technique is a feasible, inexpensive, and safe alternative for ventral hernias with the potential prevention of bowel incarceration during bariatric surgery. This approach allows deferring the definitive hernia repair for a later stage. (Source: Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy and Percutaneous Techniques)

Late (≥5 y) Complications of Laparoscopic Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (LVSG) and Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB): A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Conclusions: LRYGB is associated with a higher proportion of surgical and endoscopic interventions at 5 years compared with LVSG. More high-quality, long-term studies are required to further elucidate both surgical and nutritional long-term outcomes post these procedures.

Hernia Defect Closure With Barbed Suture: An Assessment of Patient-reported Outcomes in Extraperitoneal Robotic Ventral Hernia Repair
Conclusions: Barbed suture for fascial defect closure in rVHR was found to be safe with an acceptable rate of possible recurrence by the use of PRO data. Patients with multiple hernias and previous repairs had a higher likelihood of recurrence and a lower quality of life after rVHR. (Source: Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy and Percutaneous Techniques)

Retention Time of Endoscopic Nasobiliary Drainage and Symptomatic Choledocholithiasis Recurrence After Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: A Single-center, Retrospective Study in Fuyang, China
Conclusions: This preliminary study showed that symptomatic choledocholithiasis recurrence may be associated with ENBD retention time after ERCP, particularly for duration of ENBD more than 4.01 days. (Source: Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy and Percutaneous Techniques)

Does Gastric Expansibility Affect Weight Loss Success After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy?
Reduced excess weight loss (EWL) or regain is a worrying problem after metabolic surgery. Factors attainable from the resected specimen that can predict this outcome are investigated. We retrospectively analyzed 64 patients who had undergone laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. We collected demographic data, preoperative gastric emptying measurements, volume, expansion capacity, and 6-dimensional measurements of sleeve gastrectomy specimens. Correlations between EWL, body mass index levels, and gastric specimen measurements related to gastric remnant dimensions were also scrutinized. We found a significant correlation between ...

Impact of Underlying Disease and Preoperative Factors on Postoperative Outcomes After Laparoscopic Splenectomy: A Bicentric Retrospective Analysis
Conclusion: In addition to the underlying disease, preoperative conditions may also affect the complication rates after LS. These findings may be helpful in patient selection, especially in the early stages of the learning curve for minimally invasive splenectomies.

Titanium Clip-dental Floss Traction-assisting Endoscopy in Patients With Difficulty in Cannulation Into the Duodenal Peridiverticular Papilla
Objective: To assess titanium clip-dental floss traction-assisting endoscopy in patients with difficulty in cannulation into the papilla located at the lower, left or right side of the periampullary diverticulum. Materials and Methods: Sixty-eight patients who had difficulty in cannulation into the papilla located at the lower, left, or right side of the periampullary diverticulum upon endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were recruited at Taizhou Hospital from July 2016 to June 2020. A random number table was used to divide the patients into an intervention (with titanium clip-dental floss trac...
