Peritoneal bridging versus fascial closure in laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay ventral hernia mesh repair: a randomized clinical trial

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 587-592, August 2020., 2020
Fifty patients were enrolled and randomized to laparoscopic hernia repair with conventional fascial closure or a peritoneal bridging approach. Follow‐up by CT at 12 months (primary endpoint) revealed no seroma in either group, but seroma was detected clinically in the early postoperative period after 1 month (4 of 25 versus 0 of 25 patients in fascial ...

Neuroenhancement in surgeons: benefits, risks and ethical dilemmas

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 8, Page 946-950, July 2020., 2020
Mistakes are inevitable in healthcare, and surgeons traditionally aim to avoid these through training and surgical technology. Emerging neuroenhancement techniques have demonstrated significant gains in cognitive and motor domains that could offset the errors seen in surgical practice.

Repeat cytoreductive surgery with or without intraperitoneal chemotherapy for recurrent epithelial appendiceal neoplasms

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 478-485, June 2020., 2020
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has been established as the standard for the management of peritoneal surface malignancy (PSM); however, the utility of repeat CRS for recurrent epithelial appendiceal neoplasms has not been explored widely. A large retrospective cohort analysis was performed of patients with PSM of appendiceal origin, evaluating the short ...

Impact of technically qualified surgeons on laparoscopic colorectal resection outcomes: results of a propensity score‐matching analysis

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 486-498, June 2020., 2020
The outcomes of 586 procedures performed or attended by surgeons certified by the Endoscopic Surgical Skill Qualification System (ESSQS) were compared with 842 procedures performed by surgeons without the ESSQS qualification. Attendance of ESSQS‐qualified surgeons led to superior outcomes in terms of duration of surgery, and operative complication and ...

Prophylactic salpingectomy for prevention of ovarian cancer at the time of elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 5, Page 519-524, April 2020., 2020
Serous ovarian cancer is now understood to arise in the fallopian tubes. Prophylactic salpingectomy to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer is widely recommended at gynaecological surgery in appropriate women. This article explores prophylactic salpingectomy at the time of non‐gynaecological surgery.

Functional complaints and quality of life after transanal total mesorectal excision: a meta‐analysis

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 5, Page 489-498, April 2020., 2020
A novel surgical technique for total mesorectal excision (TME) is single‐port transanal minimally invasive surgery. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the functional outcomes and quality of life after transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) and compare them with those of laparoscopic TME (LapTME).

Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double‐flap technique versus laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy for proximal early gastric cancer

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 252-259, April 2020., 2020
Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double‐flap technique is different from laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy in terms of preventing problems involving the small intestine and anaemia after surgery for proximal early gastric cancer. However, these procedures are comparable for other outcomes, even though they are opposing procedures.

Availability, procurement, training, usage, maintenance and complications of electrosurgical units and laparoscopic equipment in 12 African countries

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 326-331, April 2020., 2020
This study investigated the current availability, procurement, training, usage, maintenance and complications in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) of two types of surgical equipment: the electrosurgical unit and laparoscopic equipment. Despite the availability of surgical equipment, surgeons still encountered complications during use of both ...
