Several randomized controlled trials have shown the oncological non-inferiority of minimally invasive surgery compared to open surgery for colon cancer patients. However, for UICC stage III patients, carrying the highest risk for local recurrence and the worst survival, the evidence remains inconclusive. The aim of this systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis is to improve the scarce evidence regarding minimally invasive surgery for this subgroup of patients. Data from adult patients with pathologically UICC stage III right adenocarcinoma of the colon will be included. The intervention to be assessed is the minimally invasive right hemicolectomy in comparison with the open procedure. The primary outcome will be the 5-year overall survival. Secondary outcomes will include further long-term outcomes, such as disease-free survival, short term, and histological outcomes. Only randomized controlled trials and quasi-randomized controlled clinical trials will be included. The literature search will be conducted in the following databases: PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Trials, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science. The review will be performed using the Cochrane methodology including GRADE tools. The findings of this meta-analysis will be important for choosing optimal treatment pathways and tailoring of surgical therapy in patients with locally advanced UICC stage III right colon cancer.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139000924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate reconstruction of the COR is suggested to be within 5 mm of its anatomical location. The goal of our study was to assess whether accurate reconstruction of the COR, based on preoperative planning, is associated with improved clinical outcomes. The study population consisted of patients who underwent THA at our institution between August 2018 and May 2020. All patients underwent preoperative digital templating. The position of the predicted COR was compared to its actual postoperative position. Patients were subsequently stratified into two subgroups based on the difference between the distance of the predicted COR and the reconstructed COR, over or under 5 mm. A 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were taken for each patient. 90 patients were included in this study. 60 patients (66%) had their COR reconstructed within 5 mm of preoperative planning, whereas for 30 patients (33%), reconstruction was outside of 5 mm of preoperative planning. Between the two cohorts, no significant difference existed in the physical component summary (PCS) (p = 0.33), the mental component summary (MCS = 0.16), or the visual analogue scale (VAS) (p = 0.12). The accurate restoration of COR based on preoperative planning is not associated with improved clinical outcomes. During postoperative evaluation, surgeons should feel confident if the COR is slightly greater than 5 mm of preoperative limitations.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139002111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It represents the most frequent primary tumor of the urogenital tract in childhood, and treatment consists of surgery and chemo-radiotherapy. However, concerning quality of life, the new therapeutic frontier is exploring other safer and potentially more effective options, such as minimally invasive surgery and biological drugs. Method: Literature (PubMed) from January 2013 to July 2023 was reviewed, checking for innovations in diagnosis and treatment. Results: A total of 130 articles was included in the review. Conclusion: In addition to the therapeutic strategies already identified, such as classic surgery and pharmacological therapies, recent studies focus attention on the new frontiers of minimally invasive surgery, such as diagnostics using biomarkers and immunotherapy, which could represent a new therapeutic option and is possibly less risky than in the past, contributing in fact to the current knowledge of the scientific panorama in terms of “tumor microenvironment” and systemic implications deriving from oncological disease.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138588807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different surgical approaches are discussed in the literature. We present a case report of a 25-year-old male admitted with headache, vertigo, and nystagmus. The MRI scan showed a tetraventricular hydrocephalus with a patent aqueduct. After endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV), symptoms resolved. We performed a systematic review of the literature, covering 26 years, with the aim to investigate the symptoms, therapy, and outcome of primary FVOO, according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) guidelines. We found 9 case reports and 2 case series and could extract a total of 34 cases. After ETV all symptoms resolved in 10 of 23 cases (43.5%), and in 13 of 23 cases (56.5%) symptoms improved partially. Seven cases (30.4%) required additional surgery. A decrease in ventricular volume occurred in most cases. In the 10 patients who were operated via fenestration, all symptoms resolved in 6 cases. ETV seems to be an effective treatment option for patients with idiopathic FVOO in a majority of cases.

Methods: Retrospective data of adult patients who underwent esophagectomy for esophageal carcinoma between July 2019 and 2022 were included (n = 105). ICG was delivered intravenously (2 mL, 2.5 mg/mL) to assess conduit perfusion into the small bowel mesentery, inguinal lymph nodes, or foot web spaces for TD visualization using fluorescence imaging. Incidence of TD injury, chylothorax, AL, and AEs were collected. Results: A total of 23 patients received ICG (ICG for TD and perfusion (n = 12) and perfusion only (n = 11)), while 82 patients were controls. TD was visualized in 6 of 12 patients who received ICG for TD. No intraoperative TD injuries or postoperative chylothoraces occurred in these patients. Non-ICG patients had 1 (1.22%) intraoperative TD injury and 10 (12.2%) postoperative chylothoraces (grade I–IIIb). While 10 non-ICG patients (12.2%) developed AL (grade I–IVb), only 2 (8.7%) ICG patients developed AL (grade IIIa). Conclusions: This study demonstrates the utility of ICG fluorescence in intraoperative TD and conduit perfusion assessment for limiting AEs. Standard incorporation of ICG in esophagectomy may help surgeons improve the quality of care in this patient population.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135590011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The highest difficulty parameters were for questions related to prosthetics (b = 0.879) and actions for oral cancer (b = 2.922). The 13 items were more appropriate to discriminate the teams with lower performance and relatively ineffective in differentiating those with better performance.

This pilot study aimed to investigate regional differences in thermal comfort in the head and neck areas by applying a surgical helmet equipped with cooling pads containing octadecane (CAS 593-45-3) as a phase change material (PCM) in healthy volunteers. Forty-three surgeons and nurses were enrolled. Octadecane is an odorless alkane hydrocarbon with an appearance of white crystal and a melting point of 28 °C. The PCM pads, each with a diameter of 5 cm and containing 7 g of octadecane, were placed between the helmet and the wearer’s head directly in contact with the skin. To identify the areas of the head and neck investigated, the surface was sampled and numbered, with the identification of a total of 38 different locations. A climate chamber maintained at 23–26 °C was used for the experiment. Thermal comfort of the stimulated area was reported by the subjects in an evaluation questionnaire at the end of the local stimulation conducted for 1 h. The sensations were reported as 1 (maximum uncomfortable) to 7 (maximum cold comfort), with 4 indicating a neutral sensation. The duration of the thermal comfort effect was also recorded. The highest mean value reported was 6 in five areas. The frontal region, the frontotemporal region, and the neck region were the areas sensitive to thermal comfort. A neutral sensation was reported in 13 areas. No uncomfortable sensation was reported in any area. This pilot study provides preliminary evidence of the feasibility and potential benefits of integrating PCM cooling pads into surgical helmets to enhance thermal comfort.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136262930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the increase in the age of the world’s population and to the intensification of surgeries for fractures, nowadays, peri-implant fractures are a very frequent entity in clinical practice, with an increasing trend expected in the future. A clear exclusive classification of NPPIFs is not reported in the literature. The aim of this study is to provide a valid comprehensive classification for all the NPPIFs. X-rays of all the peri-implant cases treated in our unit in a 3-year period were retrospectively collected. Five orthopedic surgeons reviewed 30 X-rays of NPPIFs, providing a code according to the classification proposed. After a 3-month interval, they reviewed the same X-rays. Eighteen femoral, eight humeral, and four forearm peri-implant fractures were collected and showed to the raters. Inter- and intra-observer reliability was calculated using a k-statistic, showing a moderate agreement between observers (κ = 0.73) and a substantial agreement between the observations of the same viewer (κ = 0.82). The literature lacks a comprehensive classification for peri-implant fractures that considers all the bones and all the types of implants. The proposed classification is meant to be an instrument for orthopedic surgeons to categorize these types of fractures and seems to be simple, easy to comprehend, and reproducible. This new classification can provide the orthopedic surgeon a reliable method to clearly catalogue different fractures according to the site and the implants; the physicians can use it, through a code, in clinical practice to describe an NPPIF without the need of images. Further studies may be necessary to confirm the validity and eventually to improve the suggested classification.","PeriodicalId":93623,"journal":{"name":"Surgeries","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135994834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
