Defect width as a percentage of transverse abdominal diameter: An index to predict the requirement for component separation in incisional hernia repair

Heliyon
Purpose: Preoperative decision making prior to incisional hernia repair brings benefits but also presents challenges. Defect width (DW) is the key index in hernia staging but does not precisely indicate the requirement for component separation (CS).

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

Physiologic changes with abdominal wall reconstruction in a porcine abdominal compartment syndrome model

, 2015
Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a severe complication of ventral hernia repair. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of intra-abdominal pressure on the physiologic changes of abdominal wall reconstruction and component ...

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with esophagogastrostomy using overlap method combined with gastric remnant "U"-shaped fold: a retrospective cohort study

Frontiers in Surgery
ObjectiveProximal gastrectomy (PG) is increasingly preferred over total gastrectomy for upper gastric cancer to preserve gastric function, yet postoperative reflux remains a critical challenge.

Abdominal Wall Closure in Recipients of Intestinal and Multivisceral Transplants

, 2013
Recipients of intestinal and multivisceral transplantation often present with difficult closure of the abdomen at time of surgery because of loss of abdominal domain from previous surgeries or edema of the graft.
