Endoscopic management of acute cholecystitis in high‐risk surgical patients: A comprehensive review article

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Acute cholecystitis is frequently encountered in daily clinical practice, and early cholecystectomy is the standard therapy. In high‐risk surgical patients, such as those with advanced age, deteriorated performance status, or underlying diseases, conservative treatment is typically preferred to manage acute cholecystitis.

A comparative study of esmolol and dexmedetomidine on hemodynamic responses to carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery

open access: yesAnesthesia Essays and Researches, 2016
Background: Carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum for laparoscopic surgery increases arterial pressures, heart rate (HR), and systemic vascular resistance. In this randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, we investigated and compared the ...

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography‐guided Biliary Drainage with Duckbill‐type Anti‐reflux Metal Stent versus Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Hepaticogastrostomy for Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction in Pancreatic Cancer with Duodenal Invasion

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Duodenal invasion is a risk factor for early recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) due to the increased risk of duodenobiliary reflux. Transpapillary biliary drainage using anti‐reflux metal stents (ARMS) and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) are two different strategies for this condition.

Is there any effect of pneumoperitoneum pressure on coagulation and fibrinolysis during laparoscopic cholecystectomy?

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Background Laparoscopic cholecystectomies (LC) are generally performed in a 12 mmHg-pressured pneumoperitoneum in a slight sitting position. Considerable thromboembolism risk arises in this operation due to pneumoperitoneum, operation position and risk ...

Individualised Positive End‐Expiratory Pressure During Robotic‐Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Guided by Intratidal Compliance–Volume Curve Analysis

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 69, Issue 6, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Steep Trendelenburg positioning and capnoperitoneum during robotic‐assisted prostatectomy adversely affect respiratory system mechanics and decrease dorsal lung ventilation. Objective We hypothesised that individualising positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP) based on intratidal compliance–volume curve analysis enhances dorsal ...

Kurt Semm and an automatic insufflator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Work on tubal insufflation marked the beginning of Kurt Semm's (b. 1927) scientific career. In the early 1960s, he directed his attention to the fact that, from a technical standpoint, tubal insufflation was similar to creating pneumoperitoneum.

Influence of steep Trendelenburg position and CO2 pneumoperitoneum on cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory homeostasis during robotic prostatectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The steep (40 degrees) Trendelenburg position optimizes surgical exposure during robotic prostatectomy. The goal of the current study was to investigate the combined effect of this position and CO2 pneumoperitoneum on cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and

Airway management: induced tension pneumoperitoneum

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2016
Pneumoperitoneum is not always associated with hollow viscus perforation. Such condition is called non-surgical or spontaneous pneumoperitoneum. Intrathoracic causes remain the most frequently reported mechanism inducing this potentially life threatening

Hiatoplasty with crura buttressing versus hiatoplasty alone during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction. In obese patients with hiatal hernia (HH), laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with cruroplasty is an option but use of prosthetic mesh crura reinforcement is debated.

Robot‐Assisted Colectomy for Left‐Sided Colon Cancer: Comparison of da Vinci SP and Single‐Site Platforms

open access: yesThe International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 21, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background To compare the clinicopathological and cosmetic outcomes of robotic colectomy using the da Vinci SP and Single‐Site for left‐sided colon cancer. Methods The study included 31 and 52 patients who underwent robotic colectomy using the SP and Single‐Site, respectively, between July 2011 and July 2023.
