Article Abstract

Background: This study aimed to assess clinical results in terms of intraoperative outcomes, recovery and recurrence of our robotic technique for the treatment of patients affected by simultaneous inguinal and umbilical hernia, providing technical details to facilitate multiquadrant surgery in robotic hernia repair.

Methods: Data from patients affected by simultaneous primary inguinal and umbilical hernia who underwent robotic repair with our dual docking technique was retrospectively analysed.

Results: Fifteen patients were included. No intraoperative complications occurred. All patients achieved complete mobilisation within 7 h. The mean length of hospital stay was 21.6 h, with five patients discharged on the same day of surgery. There was no major complication and no recurrence within the median follow-up period of 673 days.

Conclusions: This surgical technique shows optimal postoperative outcomes, such as early mobilisation and short length of stay. Our study provides an aid to surgeons performing multiquadrant robotic surgery for the treatment of abdominal hernias.

Use of Muscle Interpolation Flap as a Reconstructive Option in Soft Tissue Coverage of Limbs: A Novel Technique.

Indian J Plast Surg

Background: In injuries of the hand or forearm with vascular compromise due to a single vessel supplying blood distally or difficulty in donor vessel access, a pedicled flap is preferred. Skin flaps like the groin flap are commonly used as an interpolation flap. Muscle flaps used as interpolation flaps have scarcely been reported in the literature.

Background: A Sister Mary Joseph's nodule is an umbilical metastasis from an intra-abdominal or pelvic malignancy, associated with a poor prognosis. Three possible metastatic pathways for Sister Mary Joseph's nodule have been postulated: hematogenous spread, lymphatic dissemination, and direct invasion. However, detailed analyses of these metastatic pathways, particularly those involving gene expression profiling, are lacking in literature.

Department of Surgery, University of California, Davis Children's Hospital, 4301 X Street, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA.

Purpose: Parents need to plan for patients' recovery after pediatric operations. Standard guidance for pain medication use and time off school is not evidence based, for lack of data. This study aims to quantify recovery time and pain medication usage after common pediatric operations to improve the post-operative experience for families.

Background: Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) for abdominal wall hernia repair is an established, minimally invasive technique that is in the early phase of adoption within the UK. We aimed to demonstrate the impact on patient outcomes and safety of hernia repair by adhering to the robotic abdominal wall surgery pathway developed by the European Hernia Society.

Materials And Methods: Two experienced laparoscopic surgeons in the UK underwent four phases that involved preclinical and clinical phases.

Background: Ventral hernia (VH) includes subtypes like incisional and umbilical hernias, which are more complex than groin hernias due to wider defects, higher recurrence rates, and more demanding surgical techniques. The purpose of the present research is to explore the causal relationship among metabolic syndrome-related components and abdominal wall hernia, and to provide genetic evidence to support the risk of metabolic syndrome-related components and abdominal wall hernia.

Methods: Data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were analyzed.
