This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and prognosis of LAR in elderly patients (65 y and above) with rectal cancer and investigate the factors associated with the anastomotic leakage (AL). Besides, the study sought to create a nomogram for precise prediction of AL after anterior resection for rectal cancer.
Materials and Methods:
A total of 343 rectal cancer patients over 65 years old who underwent LAR or OAR at a single center between January 2013 to January 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate analysis was conducted to explore potential risk factors for AL, and a nomogram for AL was create...

Challenges in Anesthesia Management for Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy: A Retrospective Analysis
Conclusion:
Periprocedural abdominal decompression with veress needle led to a reduction in arterial PaCO2 and PIP, and improved postoperative analgesia. Serious complications because of perioperative aspiration and CO2 insufflation were observed during the POEM procedure. (Source: Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy and Percutaneous Techniques)

High Rates of Incisional Hernia After Laparoscopic Right Colectomy With Midline Extraction Site
Background:
Laparoscopic surgery aims at reducing wound complications and improving cosmetics, among other advantages. High rates of postoperative ventral hernia (POVH) are observed after laparoscopic-assisted colectomies.
Materials and Methods:
In a 2011 to 2016 retrospective study of all patients at Rabin Medical Center, we examined POVH prevalence after right hemicolectomy for neoplasia and correlation to specimen extraction site. We also compared laparoscopic-assisted colectomy to hand-assisted laparoscopic colectomy. Included were patients who had postoperative abdominal computed tomography or magnetic reso...

Robotic Direct Inguinal Hernia Repair: To Plicate or Not to Plicate?
Background:
Closure of the direct inguinal defect with plication in minimally invasive direct inguinal hernia repair may have potential benefits in terms of reducing postoperative surgical site events (SSEs) and recurrences. However, these advantages remain unclear, particularly in the robotic literature. This is the first comparative study to investigate the outcomes after robotic direct inguinal hernia repair (RDIHR) with defect plication.
Materials and Methods:
Among patients who underwent RIHR between 2013 and 2020, those who underwent RDIHR were selected. Patients were then stratified into 2 groups based on...

Endoscopic Pilonidal Sinus Treatment: Rapid Recovery, Satisfactory Success, and High Quality of Life
Purpose:
In the treatment of pilonidal sinus disease (PD), endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment (EPSIT), a skin-sparing minimally invasive technique, has attracted attention as an effective treatment. The aim of this study to evaluate the treatment success, cosmetic outcomes, and the quality of life in the patients who underwent an EPSIT for PD.
Materials and Methods:
The prospectively maintained data of 86 patients who underwent EPSIT for PD were retrospectively analyzed. The primary end-point of this study was complete wound healing, while the secondary end-points were the quality of life and cosmetic outcomes...

Benefits and Reduced Hospital Costs of Direct Surgery in Perforated Appendicitis With Abscess Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Treatment Complicated Appendicitis
This study compared the outcomes and cost-effectiveness of patients who underwent IA and those who underwent direct surgery.
Materials and Methods:
A retrospective analysis of 79 patients who were diagnosed with perforated appendicitis with abscess was conducted. We compared the hospital course, outcomes, and total medical costs between the 2 groups.
Results:
Forty-three patients underwent PCD insertion for the management of appendiceal abscess (IA group), and 36 underwent appendectomy (DS group). There was no significant difference in abscess size (5.67 vs. 5.35 cm, P=0.15), appendectomy method (laparoscop...

Postoperative Outcomes of Closed Versus Nonclosed Mesentery Laparoscopic Colectomy: A Retrospective Single-center Study
Conclusions:
This study revealed that closure of the mesenteric defect following laparoscopic colectomy might be associated with an increased incidence of postoperative ileus. (Source: Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy and Percutaneous Techniques)

Impact of Immune Response in Short-term and Long-term Outcomes After Minimally Invasive Surgery for Colorectal Liver Metastases: Results From a Randomized Study
Background:
The potential benefit related to laparoscopic liver surgery (LLS) for colorectal liver metastases outcomes is not well known.
Materials and Methods:
Serum cytokines associated with Th1 (tumor necrosis factor-α) and Th2 [interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-6] phenotypes were measured in 36 patients operated on for colorectal liver metastases by open liver surgery (OLS) and LLS. Measurements were performed at 3 time points: 1 day before surgery, day 3 postoperative, and 1 month postoperative. We compared the postoperative inflammatory response influence between LLS and OLS on long-term outcomes.
Results:
