Extraperitoneal vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic pelvic reconstruction for multi compartment pelvic organ prolapse

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 172, Issue 3, Page 1806-1809, March 2026.
Abstract We describe a novel extraperitoneal vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) approach for pelvic reconstruction in women with multicompartment pelvic organ prolapse (POP). This retroperitoneal technique enables direct exposure of the presacral area, allowing secure fixation of a Y‐shaped mesh to the anterior ...

A Variable-Dimension Overtube for Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery

IEEE Access, 2020
In natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery, the insertion of surgical instruments can cause patient discomfort, even bleeding and perforation. This paper proposes a design of an overtube which can vary its radial dimension.

Third-Generation Nephrectomy by Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery [PDF]

Journal of Urology, 2007
Recently there has been increasing enthusiasm for performing simple abdominal procedures by transgastric surgery. We previously reported the usefulness of a combined transgastric and transvesical approach to cholecystectomy. In this study we assessed the feasibility of combined transgastric and transvesical approach for performing a more complex ...

A High‐Precision and Robust Geometric Relationships‐Inspired Neural Network for the Inverse Kinematic Modeling of the Tendon‐Actuated Continuum Manipulator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
An online learning control framework with a data cache pool based on a constant‐curvature model inspired neural network (CCMINN) model to obtain the inverse kinematics model of tendon‐actuated continuum manipulators is proposed. Combining the fast‐converging CCMINN with an online learning control framework enables high‐precision and highly robust ...
