Endoscopic Management of Appendiceal Stump Lesions via Transcolonic Access: A Safe and Feasible Minimally Invasive Strategy

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 1303-1310, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Transcolonic endoscopic appendectomy is an emerging minimally invasive alternative to traditional appendectomy, offering potential benefits such as reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery, and avoidance of external incisions. The variable anatomical location of the appendix, however, influences both the surgical approach

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 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 ...
