Aim: To compare the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic surgery for lower rectal cancer with open surgery. Methods: The multiple databases including PubMed, Springer, EMBASE, EMBASE, OVID were adopted to search for the relevant studies, and full-text articles involving the comparison of unilateral and bilateral PVP surgery were reviewed. Review Manager 5.0 was adopted to estimate the effects of the results among the selected articles. Forest plots, sensitivity analysis and bias analysis for the articles included were also conducted. Results: Finally, 1186 patients were included in the 10 studies, which eventually satisfied the eligibility criteria, and laparoscopic and open surgery group were 646 and 540, respectively. The meta-analysis suggested that there was no significant difference of the operation time between laparoscopic and open surgery group, while the time to solid intake, hospital stay time, blood loss and complication rate of laparoscopic group are much less than those of open surgery. Conclusion: Although both these two punctures provide similar operation time, we encourage the use of the laparoscopic surgery as the preferred surgical technique for treatment of lower rectal cancer due to less time to solid intake, hospital stay time, blood loss and lower complication rate.

Objective:  To compare the efficacy of clipless cholecystectomy using harmonic scalpel and clipped conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Study design: A randomized control trial. Place and duration of study: Department of general surgery at Nishtar Hospital Multan, from October 1st 2019 to March 31st 2020. Methodology: Total 188 patients of gallstone related cholecystitis were enrolled in the study and were selected using non-probability consecutive sampling technique. All the patients were randomly divided into two equal groups. One group was designated for clipless and the other for conventional clipped laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Age, gender, duration of cholecystitis, duration of Procedure, hospital stay, usefulness in difficult procedures and biliary leakage were recorded for all the patients. Data was entered in SPSS version 23 and analyzed. Results: Operation time was 28.35±7.92 minutes and 21.15±4.47 minutes in clipped and unclipped surgery, respectively (p<0.001). Hospital stay was 2.37±0.60 days in clipped surgery group and 1.71±0.74 days in clipless surgery group (p<0.001). Biliary leakage was reported in 2(2.1 %) patients of the clipped group and 1(1.1%) patients of the unclipped group (p = 0.561). Usefulness of the procedure in difficult cases was documented in 0 (0.0%) of the clipped procedures and in 8 (8.5%) of the clipless procedures (p=0.004). Conclusion: As witnessed from this study, it can be concluded that clipless surgery is a better option as compared to the clipped conventional laparoscopic Cholecystectomy as former is associated with shorter operation time, shorter hospital stay and better usefulness in difficult cases.

Summary. Aim of work: to determine and compare the level of visualization, comfort, safety and effectiveness of simultaneous technique of laparoscopic surgery of gallstone disease and concomitant hiatal hernia and standard «baseball diamond» technique of laparoscopic surgery of only hiatal hernia. Materials and methods: the study was performed based on data developed in MISU VRCH. 359 patients were treated and divided on two groups, of which the group №1 — patients who underwent simultaneous laparoscopic cholecystectomy and cruroraphy with Toupet fundoplication (n=155), and group №2 — patients who underwent only laparoscopic crurography with with Toupet fundoplication. The level of visualization, comfort, frequency of «fencing», duration of operation, length of hospital stay, complication frequency were determined. The method with the null hypothesis, Pearson’s analysis, Mann-Whitney method were used. The results of the study: the approach distance of the laparoscope was (8,11 ± 0,917) and (8,71 ± 0,256) cm for 30°-optics while (6,55 ± 0,491) and (6,66 ± 0,485) cm for 0°-optics in two groups, respectively. The frequency of fencing was just about 4 episodes in both groups and did not differ statistically significantly. The frequency of the need to change the viewing area` and the frequency of the need to change the position of the instruments did not differ statistically significantly in both groups. The operation time was longer in the group of simultaneous operations by 10 % or 4,24 minutes. The level of complications was comparable in both groups, no correlation was found. The length of hospital stay was (3,64 ± 0,71) days (2-8 days) versus (3,58 ± 0,67) days (2-8 days) for both groups, respectively (p = 0.967).

AbstractSurgery is developing in the direction of minimal invasiveness, and robotic surgery is becoming increasingly adopted in colonic resection procedures. The ergonomic improvements of robot promote surgical performance, reduce workload for surgeons and benefit patients. Compared with laparoscopy-assisted colon surgery, the robotic approach has the advantages of shorter length of hospital stay, lower rate of conversion to open surgery, and lower rate of intraoperative complications for short-term outcomes. Synchronous robotic liver resection with colon cancer is feasible. The introduction of the da Vinci Xi System (Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA) has introduced more flexibility to colonic operations. Optimization of the suprapubic surgical approach may shorten the length of hospital stay for patients who undergo robotic colonic resection. Single-port robotic colectomy reduces the number of robotic ports for better looking and faster recovery. Intestinal anastomosis methods using totally robotic surgery result in shorter time to bowel function recovery and tolerance to a solid diet, although the operative time is longer. Indocyanine green is used as a tracer to assess blood supplementation in the anastomosis and marks lymph nodes during operation. The introduction of new surgical robots from multiple manufacturers is bound to change the landscape of robotic surgery and yield high-quality surgical outcomes. The present article reviews recent advances in robotic colonic resection over the past five years.

Objective: To evaluate the consequent outcomes in the patients with rectal cancer endured laparoscopic surgical excision at Department of Surgery, Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences Jamshoro, Hyderabad and to review their curative resection and recurrence rates, postoperative morbidities and complete survival. Methods: This prospective case series study was done at the Department of General Surgery of Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences, Jamshoro, Sindh, Pakistan. All patients of 30-65 years ages with rectal cancer and underwent diagnostic laparoscopy either of gender were included. After removing the tumor, the specimen pinned out on a flat surface and placed in fixative solution to allow the orientation of the specimen and assessments of the exact margins. As the specimens had acceptable clear margins and limited invasion to the submucosa, no further surgical procedure was proceeded. Data was collected via study proforma. Results: A total of 40 patients were studied. Patients in the laparoscopic operation lost less blood with an amount of only 200mL during 190 minutes average operation time. The bowel functioning returned in 2 days averagely with 8 days average hospital stay. Conclusion: It is concluded that laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer is an effective, safe and feasible approach in terms of less post-operative complications and recovery time as well as Hospital stay. Key words: Rectal Cancer, laparoscopic surgery

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to compare the effects of nalbuphine and sufentanil on the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after laparoscopic surgery for gynecological malignancies. Methods A total of 100 patients aged between 18-70 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-II who scheduled for laparoscopic radical hysterectomy under general anaesthesia were enrolled. Patients were randomized to receive either sufentanil (Group S) or nalbuphine (Group N) to receive either sufentanil (Group S) or nalbuphine (Group N) in the intraoperative and postoperative periods. The time to the first passage of flatus, the time to the first defecation, the time to the toleration of diet, the serum gastrin and the length of hospital stay were compared between the groups. Postoperative pain by visual analogue scale (VAS), the number of PCA(patient-controlled analgesia)s, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and dizziness were compared between the groups. Results The time to the first passage of flatus(p =0.551), the time to the first defecation(p =0.310), the time to the toleration of diet(p =0.182), the serum gastrin(p =0.397), the number of postoperative nausea(p =0.920), vomit(p =0.334) and PCA events(p =0.167) and the length of hospital stay(p =0.482) were not significantly different between the two groups. VAS scores at postoperative 6 h(p=0.008), 12 h(p =0.002) and 24 h(p =0.013) were lower in Group N than in Group S. Conclusions Compared with sufentanil, nalbuphine was not associated with improved postoperative GI dysfunction after laparoscopic surgery for gynecological malignancies, but it was associated with reduced postoperative pain.

Introduction: Although it is controversial whether appendectomy can be safely delayed, it is often unnecessary to postpone operation as a shorter delay may increase patient comfort, enables quicker recovery, and decreases costs. In this study, we sought to study whether the time of day influences the outcomes among patients operated on for acute appendicitis. Materials and Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing appendectomy at Tampere University Hospital between 1 September 2014 and 30 April 2017 for acute appendicitis were included. Primary outcome measures were postoperative morbidity, mortality, length of hospital stay, and amount of intraoperative bleeding. Appendectomies were divided into daytime and nighttime operations. Results: A total of 1198 patients underwent appendectomy, of which 65% were operated during daytime and 35% during nighttime. Patient and disease-related characteristics were similar in both groups. The overall morbidity and mortality rates were 4.8% and 0.2%, respectively. No time categories were associated with risk of complications or complication severity. Neither was there difference in operation time and clinically significant difference in intraoperative bleeding. Patients undergoing surgery during night hours had a shorter hospital stay. In multivariate analysis, only complicated appendicitis was associated with worse outcomes. Discussion: We have shown that nighttime appendectomy is associated with similar outcomes than daytime appendectomy. Subsequently, appendectomy should be planned for the next available slot, minimizing delay whenever possible.

To compare the clinic outcomes of endoscopic stenting and laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy (LGJ) for patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). We retrospectively reviewed 63 patients with malignant GOO that underwent endoscopic stenting [Stent Group (SG), n = 29] or LGJ [Laparoscopic Group (LG), n = 34]. Then, we evaluated the medical effects, postoperative hospital stay, and hospitalization expenses in both groups. Compared to LG, SG has a shorter operation time [SG: (41.1 ± 9.3) minutes vs LG: (137.4 ± 21.7) minutes, P = 0.000], less intra-operative blood loss [(23.7 ± 9.0) mL vs (121.1 ± 24.3) mL, P = 0.000], relatively lower hospitalization expenses [(2272.7 ± 413.9) $ vs (5182.4 ± 517.3) $, P = 0.000]. Besides, the median intake time was significantly shorter in the SG than that in the LG [(0.9 ± 0.3) days vs (4.1 ± 0.6) days, P = 0.000]. However, there were no significant differences between SG with LG in surgical success rate (100 vs 100%, P = 1.000), length of hospital stay [(6.1 ± 3.3) days vs (10.9 ± 4.7) days, P = 0.422], recurrent obstructive rate (37.9 vs 26.5%, P = 0.949) and median survivals [(141.4 ± 81.4) days vs (122.7 ± 88.8) days, P = 0.879]. Endoscopic stenting and LGJ are both relatively safe and effective treatments for patients with malignant GOO. But we suggest that endoscopic stenting should be considered first in patients with malignant GOO because it has many advantages over LGJ.

Single port laparoscopic surgery is an emerging technique, now commonly used in cholecystectomy. The experience of using this technique in liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma is described in a series of 3 cases with single port laparoscopic liver resection performed during 2010. All patients were male aged 61 to 70 years, with several comorbidities. There were no complications in this early series. The length of hospital stay was 3–5 days. The blood loss was 200–450 mL, with operating time between 142 and 171 minutes. We conclude that this technique is feasible and safe to perform in experienced centers.
