Objective: To evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of totally laparoscopic, laparoscopic-assisted, and open total gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy.

Methods: This multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted to collect clinical data from 289 patients who underwent total radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant therapy at five centers. The patients were divided into three groups according to the surgical method they received: totally laparoscopic, laparoscopic-assisted, and open groups.

We report a case of totally endoscopic mitral valve repair for severe mitral regurgitation (MR) due to Barlow's disease in a 55-year-old man with severe pulmonary dysfunction following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. He had developed severe COVID-19 one month earlier, requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO). Although successfully weaned from ECMO, the patient continued to experience persistent fever and was referred to our department for suspected acute MR.

Robotic cardiac surgery continues to evolve, offering patients a less invasive alternative to traditional median sternotomy, even for complex procedures. This report presents a case of robotic totally endoscopic aortic valve replacement using a rapid deployment valve combined with mitral valve repair, demonstrating the feasibility and safety of this approach.

Introduction: The weakest part of the duodenal wall is the ampulla of Vater, since here the circular arrangement of the duodenal musculature is destructured to integrate the sphincter of Oddi. This characteristic could be the reason why most duodenal diverticula appear in the juxtapapillary region, even including the papilla inside.

Objective: The objective of the research was to determine the patients diagnosed with juxtapapillary diverticulum (JD) after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), who were confused with different previous diagnoses.
