AI‐Assisted Recognition of Actual Ureteral and Pancreatic Injuries in Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery: A Randomized Video Review Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
AI‐generated anatomical highlighting improved surgeons' recognition of actual ureteral injuries during laparoscopic colorectal surgery, including recognition within predefined injury time‐code windows. No significant overall improvement was observed for pancreatic injury, and incorrect adverse‐event judgments did not increase in no‐injury videos. These

Laser neoureterocystostomy to treat ectopic ureters

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ureteral ectopia is an uncommon but clinically important congenital abnormality in horses. If left untreated, it can lead to persistent dermatitis, urinary tract infections, and failure to thrive. Surgical correction is necessary, but traditional approaches have produced mixed results with high morbidity.

Indocyanine green for intraoperative ureteral identification in gynecologic surgery: A preliminary systematic review of feasibility, safety, and surgical outcomes

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative ureteral injury, although uncommon, can result in significant morbidity and medicolegal consequences, particularly during complex gynecologic procedures such as endometriosis excision and prolapse repair. Conventional ureteral identification techniques, including stents and methylene blue, have recognized limitations.

Recurrent UTIs in Children With CAKUT

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) encompass diverse diagnoses that commonly present as urinary tract dilatation and are the leading cause of kidney failure in children. Antenatal hydronephrosis occurs in ~1% of pregnancies; most resolve spontaneously, but conditions such as posterior urethral valves (PUV ...

Early Onset Bacteremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Current Era

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infection (BSI) after kidney transplantation increases the risk of graft loss and mortality. We aimed to identify contemporary risk factors and outcomes of early BSI (eBSI) at our transplant center. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) from 2019 to 2023.

Uterus‐preserving surgery for placenta accreta spectrum: An expert, illustrated review of techniques and its outcomes

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 10, Page 1932-1949, October 2026.
Uterus‐preserving strategies for PAS include myometrial resection and leaving placenta in situ, differing in surgical principles, complications, and follow‐up. Myometrial resection offers definitive treatment with lower rates of delayed morbidity, while leaving the placenta in situ minimizes surgical risk but is associated with prolonged follow‐up ...
