Aims: The aim of this observational study is to describe the use of epiduroscopy to decrease the enlargement of the ligamentum flavum (LF) in patients with spinal stenosis, as well as the selection of the appropriate patient and the safety measures that enhance procedural success.
Materials & Methods: We introduce the patient selection protocol, define the appropriate indication and the safety measures to use the epiduroscopy as a tool to decrease the size of the LF and increase space, reducing possible complications.
Results: Among patients included in the study, there were no cases of access difficulty or coccydynia, and one case of urinary incontinence occurred in a patient with Schizas grade D (very severe) stenosis.

Purpose Of Review: Modern presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) offer a potential solution to address the rising postoperative demand and expectations for spectacle independence following cataract surgery. However, IOL calculation and selection becomes more complex when presented with previous corneal refractive surgery (CRS) or co-existing corneal conditions. This review explores the use of presbyopia-correcting IOLs in eyes with co-existing corneal conditions or surgically altered corneas.

Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder caused by mutation in a tumour suppressor gene, FLCN, leading to skin tumours (fibrofolliculomas), renal tumours and pulmonary cysts. Lung involvement is predominantly observed in 70% of the cases of BHDS, manifesting in the form of recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax. This video tutorial showcases the surgical management of recurrent right primary spontaneous pneumothorax in a young adult with a history of multiple episodes of bilateral pneumothorax managed by surgical intervention previously.

Our objective is to present the laparoscopic management of a mature cystic teratoma originating from the fallopian tube and to discuss different surgical approaches. A 28-year-old nulliparous woman presented with right groin pain, and after the diagnostic evaluation, laparoscopic exploration was performed for diagnosis and treatment. Intraoperative findings revealed a 4-5 cm cyst protruding from the right tubal fimbrial ostium was identified, originating from the tubal cavity without ovarian connection.
