Article Abstract
Malakoplakia is a rare chronic inflammatory disease that mainly affects the genitourinary system. A case of malakoplakia in the retroperitoneal space in a 53-year-old female patient with abdominal pain syndrome is presented. According to the results of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the abdominal organs and retroperitoneal space, the changes were assessed as nonspecific. Diagnostic biopsy revealed specific microscopic signs - the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration in the soft tissues of the retroperitoneal space with an abundance of CD68-positive macrophages containing PAS-positive cytoplasmic inclusions - Michaelis-Gutman bodies. Morphological examination allows differential diagnosis of malakoplakia with other pathological processes.

The care of patients with necrotizing pancreatitis is a complex problem for the general, acute care, minimally invasive, and hepatopancreatobiliary surgeon. In this brief report, we present a case series of 2 patients with fulminant retroperitoneal necrosis recently treated at our center using a novel robotic-assisted retroperitoneal necrosectomy and debridement (RAND) following failure of the step-up approach. This approach maximizes access to the retroperitoneum and allows improved visualization and dexterity in the challenging retroperitoneal space while maintaining minimally invasive surgical principles.

The aim of our study is to compare and assess the correlation of preoperative factors, intraoperative events and post-operative outcomes of robot assisted transperitoneal (RATP) and robot assisted retroperitoneal (RARP) partial nephrectomy (PN) in T1 renal cancer. Data from 2609 patients during the period of 10 years who underwent either RATP or RARP partial nephrectomies was retrospectively analyzed. We compared preoperative factors (age, BMI, tumour size/stage, PADUA score, preoperative eGFR, history of previous abdominal and ipsilateral surgery), intraoperative events: operative time (OT), warm ischemia time (WIT), estimated blood loss (EBL), and post-operative outcomes: complications, eGFR, positive surgical margins (PSM), and death due to disease (DOD) or due to other causes (DOC) and survival rates.

Case: A 57-year-old woman with lumbar scoliosis underwent L4-S1 anterior lumbar interbody fusion by retroperitoneal approach. A computed tomography scan performed on postoperative day seven showed a retroperitoneal fluid collection (15 × 10 × 19 cm). After excluding haemorrhagic, urinary, infectious, lymphatic and cerebrospinal origin, it was diagnosed as a transudate.
