Article Abstract
Objective: Transumbilical single-site double-port laparoscopic appendectomy (TSSDPLA) represents an innovative and minimally invasive approach for managing acute appendicitis. This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes of TSSDPLA vs. three-port laparoscopic appendectomy (TPLA) in a pediatric series.
Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted between July 2023 and July 2024 at the Department of General Surgery, Children's Hospital affiliated to Shandong University. The patients were categorized into two groups: the TSSDPLA group and the TPLA group. Outcomes including patient demographics, leukocyte count upon arrival, duration of the operation, costs associated with the operating room, and any complications encountered.
Results: The results indicated no significant differences between the TSSDPLA and TPLA groups in terms of age, gender, leukocyte counts, liquid diet, length of hospital stay, pathology or complications. However, the mean operating room costs were significantly lower in the TSSDPLA group ( < 0.001). Additionally, the mean operation time for the TSSDPLA group was marginally longer compared to the TPLA group.
Conclusions: TSSDPLA is a reliable technical technique for the management of acute appendicitis. This approach offers several advantages, including improved cosmetic outcomes, reduced surgical trauma, and lower costs.

De Garengeot hernia, characterized by appendiceal incarceration within a femoral canal hernia sac, is a rare condition with high risks of strangulation. Traditional open repair remains standard, but laparoscopic approaches offer minimally invasive alternatives. However, limited evidence exists on combining laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) with biologic mesh for this condition.

Foreign body ingestion in children, especially those aged 6 months to 3 years, is a common clinical concern. While most objects pass through the gastrointestinal tract uneventfully, some may result in obstruction and necessitate surgical intervention. We report a rare case of a 10-year-old child with autism who presented with small bowel obstruction following ingestion of a rubber feeding bottle nipple.

Background: Although procedure-specific guidelines have been established for postoperative opioid prescribing in the elective setting, it is unknown to what extent prescriptions in the emergency setting adhere to these standards. Variation in opioid prescribing for emergency general surgery patients may represent context-appropriate deviation or an opportunity for improved stewardship.
Methods: Leveraging data from a statewide Acute Care Surgery collaborative, we identified patients undergoing 4 common procedures in the emergency setting: laparoscopic appendectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, emergency hernia repair, and open colectomy.

Introduction And Clinical Importance: Primary signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) of the appendix is an exceedingly rare malignancy with a non-specific clinical manifestations, and it often masquerades as acute appendicitis. Case presentation A 76-year-old man presented with acute abdominal pain and peritonitis. Abdominal computed tomography revealed relative acute appendicitis with peritonitis, and emergency laparoscopic partial cecectomy with appendectomy revealed gangrenous appendicitis with perforation.
