Five‐year outcome of laparoscopic transanal total mesorectal excision in a single centre—A training model to acquire a new surgical technique

open access: yesSurgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Laparoscopic transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has been widely adopted globally. Short‐ and long‐term outcomes vary across different localities, especially during the learning phase. Method and patient The first 100 cases of TaTME performed by two experienced colorectal surgeons between 2015 and 2019 were reviewed. The aim

Slow Transit Constipation: Pathophysiological Perspectives and Management Updates

open access: yesJournal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Slow transit constipation (STC) is a complex neuromuscular disorder driven by interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) loss and enteric neuropathy. Diagnosis relies on objective transit testing while excluding pelvic floor dysfunction. Management follows a stepwise, phenotype‐driven approach, progressing from conventional laxatives to emerging targeted ...

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Impact of FDG‐PET/CT Following MRI Staging in Anal Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate staging is essential in anal cancer to guide therapy and prognostication. While MRI remains the modality of choice for local staging, its limitations in assessing nodal and distant metastases have prompted evaluation of FDG PET/CT as an adjunct.

Multifactorial determinants of male genital measurements: Correlations of stretched penile length and anogenital distance with anthropometric parameters

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The stretched penile length is recognized as the most reliable measure of true penile size, this fact is not widely acknowledged, and societal myths often associate penile length with other anthropometric measurements. While markers of prenatal androgen exposure, such as anogenital distance and the second‐to‐fourth digit ratio (2D ...

Transperineal ultrasound versus digital palpation: Identifying key parameters for objective pelvic floor muscle contraction assessment

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Transperineal ultrasound demonstrates high reproducibility and objectivity in evaluating pelvic floor muscle contractility. When integrated with digital palpation, it enhances functional assessment and facilitates standardized, imaging‐based strategies for individualized pelvic floor muscle training in clinical practice.
