Learning Invariant Representation of Tasks for Robust Surgical State Estimation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Surgical state estimators in robot-assisted surgery (RAS) - especially those trained via learning techniques - rely heavily on datasets that capture surgeon actions in laboratory or real-world surgical tasks. Real-world RAS datasets are costly to acquire, are obtained from multiple surgeons who may use different surgical strategies, and are recorded ...

A case of femoral hernia in a young male [PDF]
, 1968 Femoral hernia is an extremely rare condition in infants and children, and is rarely diagnosed before operation. A reducible lump in the groin of a child is by far most commonly that of an inguinal hernia.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Stapler‐assisted midline hernia repair. ABSTRACT Aim We successfully established the stapler repair technique (SRT), a straightforward laparoscopic Rives‐Stoppa approach utilizing a linear stapler. This study retrospectively evaluated its short‐term outcomes to determine its safety and efficacy.

Linea alba 3D morphometric variability by CT scan exploration [PDF]
Hernia, 2024, 28 (2), pp.485-494Purpose: The width of the Linea alba, which is often gauged by inter-rectus distance, is a key risk factor for incisional hernia and recurrence. Previous studies provided limited descriptions with no consideration for width, location variability, or curvature.

Appendiceal abscess in a giant left-sided inguinoscrotal hernia: a rare case of Amyand hernia [PDF]
, 2015 The hernia of Amyand is an inguinal hernia containing the appendix in the sac. It is a rare pathology often diagnosed only intra-operatively. We report a case even more rare of a giant left-sided inguinoscrotal Amyand hernia with appendiceal abscess ...

Aortic frequency response determination via bioimpedance plethysmography [PDF]
, 2019 Objective: Arterial stiffness is an important marker to predict cardio vascular events. Common measurement techniques to determine the condition of the aorta are limited to the acquisition of the arterial pulse wave at the extremities. The goal of this work is to enable non-invasive measurements of the aortic pulse wave velocity, instead. An additional

Overcoming the Force Limitations of Magnetic Robotic Surgery: Impact-based Tetherless Suturing [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Magnetic robotics obviate the physical connections between the actuators and end effectors resulting in ultra-minimally invasive surgeries. Even though such a wireless actuation method is highly advantageous in medical applications, the trade-off between the applied force and miniature magnetic end effector dimensions has been one of the main ...

Amyand’s hernia : a case report [PDF]
, 2013 The presence of vermiform appendix, whether normal or inflamed in the inguinal hernia, is referred to as Amyand’s hernia. This is rare occurring in about 1% of inguinal hernias in adults.

Crossover from Reptation to Rouse dynamics in the Extended Rubinstein-Duke Model [PDF]
, 2008 The competition between reptation and Rouse Dynamics is incorporated in the Rubinstein-Duke model for polymer motion by extending it with sideways motions, which cross barriers and create or annihilate hernias. Using the Density-Matrix Renormalization-Group Method as solver of the Master Equation, the renewal time and the diffusion coefficient are ...
