Twenty-one complications occurred during TAPP (2.5%), and 28 occurred during TEP (12.3%). Conversion to open surgery for TAPP procedure was reported in seven patients (0.8%). TEP procedure required conversion to TAPP in 19 patients (8.3%), and open surgery in 18 patients (7.9%) (overall conversion rate 16.2%). Postoperative complication rate was 30.1% (317 patients), with 193 after TAPP repair (23.4%) and 124 after TEP repair (54.4%) (including Clavien-Dindo I-IV).

The overall recurrence rate was 1.6% (19 recurrences), of which 12 (1.3%) and seven (2.8%) recurrences after TAPP and TEP, respectively.Conclusions: MIS approaches for ISH repair are technically challenging. TEP repair should be avoided in case of ISH repair, due to the high rate of postoperative complications, risk of conversion and recurrences.","PeriodicalId":18537,"journal":{"name":"Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144528671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SG design featuring a gradient of five wave peaks and a minimum stent ring spacing of 5 mm has the best flexibility. The relationship in terms of radial support force magnitude is as follows: isopeak-ring with heights of 13 mm > combination > gradient > isopeak-ring with heights of 16 mm.

The automatically segmented 2D images were combined with tracking data to calculate placental volume. For 15 of the included pregnancies, placental volume was also estimated based on MRI examinations, 3D ultrasound and manually segmented 2D ultrasound images. The ultrasound methods were compared to MRI (gold standard).Results: The CNN demonstrated good performance in automatic image segmentation (F1-score 0.84). The correlation with MRI-based placental volume was similar for tracked 2D ultrasound using automatically segmented images (absolute agreement intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] 0.58, 95% CI 0.13-0.84) and manually segmented images (ICC 0.59, 95% CI 0.13-0.84).

This systematic review and meta-analysis were recorded in PROSPERO, identified as CRD42024509143.Results: Two hundred and eight studies underwent screening of which seven studies were found eligible. We found no significant difference in en bloc resection rates but complete resection rates were significantly better with PEMR. The duration of the procedure was significantly longer with PEMR as compared to EMR. There was no difference in the risk of delayed bleeding and recurrence between the two groups but the risk of perforation was significantly increased with PEMR.Conclusions: The use of PEMR for colorectal lesions can improve complete resection rates, albeit at the cost of increased duration of the procedure and higher perforation rates compared to conventional EMR.

Patients were treated with a 12 W very low-loss microwaves ablation system, guided by 3D ultrasound/MRI fusion imaging. Follow-up consisted in clinical visits, PSA and validated questionnaires.

All patients were discharged the same day of treatment without bladder catheter. No significant changes in PSA or questionnaires scores were reported. At rebiopsy, no cancer was found in five patients (45%); eight patients (73%) had an absence of in-field PCa and nine patients (82%) had an absence of in-field ISUP ≥ 2 PCa.

Each rat's anterior bladder wall was sutured with the designated material, and rats were sacrificed at 6- and 9-weeks post-surgery for histopathological evaluation. Tissue reaction, inflammatory reaction, fibrosis, and suture dissolution were assessed by a blinded pathologist.Results: Vicryl sutures showed significant reductions in tissue reaction, inflammatory reaction, and fibrosis from 6 to 9 weeks (p < 0.05). Quill sutures exhibited an increase in fibrosis over the same period (p < 0.001), while V-Loc sutures showed no significant changes. Comparative analysis revealed Vicryl had the best overall performance in terms of reduced tissue reaction and inflammation.Conclusions: Vicryl sutures demonstrated superior long-term histopathological outcomes compared to barbed sutures, indicating their potential preference for reconstructive bladder surgeries.
