Prediction of surgical difficulty in minimally invasive surgery for rectal cancer by use of MRI pelvimetry

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 666-677, August 2020., 2020
This study highlights the impact of MRI pelvimetry in predicting surgical difficulty in laparoscopic rectal surgery. Multivariable analysis identified that surgical difficulty was significantly associated with four variables: BMI, tumour size, anorectal angle and pelvic outlet.

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

BJS 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

BJS (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

BJS 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

BJS 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 ...

Laparoscopic fundoplication and new aspects of neural anatomy at the oesophagogastric junction

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 400-404, June 2020., 2020
Small nerve branches penetrating the left crus of the diaphragm lateral to the hiatus, presumably running into the stomach, were observed during surgery. These nerve branches were allocated to the splanchnic and phrenic nerves. The origins and target organs of these nerves were identified.

Combined robotic approach and enhanced recovery after surgery pathway for optimization of costs in patients undergoing proctectomy

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 516-523, June 2020., 2020
Managing robotic total mesorectal excision (RTME) using an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programme in patients with rectal cancer decreased overall costs compared with RTME alone. The combination significantly decreased operating time, duration of hospital stay and global morbidity compared with RTME and laparoscopic total mesorectal excision ...

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

BJS (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.

Comparative treatment between sitagliptin vs. metformin, alone or in combination, in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. A clinical entity at high risk for developing diabetes mellitus and gestational diabetes: A pilot study

Revista Médica del Hospital General de México, 2018
Objective: To determine the efficacy of sitagliptin alone or in combination with metformin in women with polycystic ovary in terms of ovarian cyclicity, fertility and cardiometabolic profile compared to metformin alone.
