Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Blunt abdominal trauma is the most common cause of pancreatic injury in children. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy in a child with complete duct disruption has not been reported in the literature in children, although it has been well described in adults.
Methods: In this paper report a case of a 7-year-old male, with grade 4 pancreatic trauma, who was treated nonoperatively in the acute phase and subsequently by laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy 3 months after the trauma.
Discussion: Although in adults the surgical management of grade 3-4 pancreatic traumatic injury is well described, including the laparoscopic approach, no report of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy was found in the literature. We would like to emphasize the importance of using a conservative management in the acute phase of pancreatic injury, including grade 4 injuries. After this phase, the use of the high-definition computed tomography scan and endoscopic retrograde pancreatography were fundamental.
Conclusion: Magnification of laparoscopic technique allowed us to identify the structures much better than open surgery.

Background: Chronic intestinal bleeding caused by vascular malformations is uncommon. Locating these small intestinal vascular malformations with precision during surgery remains a challenge. With the rapid development of digital subtraction angiography (DSA), the detection of small intestinal vascular malformations has become easier.

A major cause of cancer death, colorectal cancer is becoming more common in younger people. The comparative effectiveness of robotic versus laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (TME) as surgical interventions for mid-low rectal cancer following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) remains uncertain. To systematically evaluate oncological, perioperative, and survival outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic surgery for mid-low rectal cancer following nCRT.

Surgical resection remains the only potentially curative treatment. Minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP), including laparoscopic and robotic approaches, has gained popularity, although the evidence of its efficacy is limited.

Surgical clip migration to the common bile duct is a rare late complication, typically originating from clips placed at the cystic duct and most commonly reported after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We present an exceptionally rare case of obstructive jaundice caused by clip migration from the liver dissection plane, rather than from the cystic duct, occurring 12 years after laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) and cholecystectomy and associated with chronic biliary inflammation. A 73-year-old man underwent LLR of segments 4a + 5 and cholecystectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma and was discharged on postoperative day 12 without any complications.

Background And Objectives: The occurrence of anastomotic leakage (AL) and gastroparesis syndrome (GS), common and severe complications after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, significantly impacts the prognosis of patients. The objective of this study was to investigate the risk factors associated with AL after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and GS after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 3779 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and met the inclusion criteria were included.
