Dedifferentiated retroperitoneal large liposarcoma and laparoscopic treatment: Is it possible and safe? The first literature case report
2019
Highlights • We describe a case report of large retroperitoneal dedifferentiated liposarcoma totally treated by laparoscopic surgery. • In literature we found few cases of laparoscopic treatment only for Well-Differentiated liposarcoma. • To our knowledge this is the first description of Dedifferentiated liposarcoma completely treated with laparoscopic technique. • Literature review was performed to identify outcomes and advantages of laparoscopic approach for.
Results of 200 intracranial stereotactic biopsies
1994
200 stereotactic biopsies were evaluated. The validity of the intraoperative histopathological results were compared with the final diagnosis using conventional embedding and staining techniques. Further comparison between the histology of the biopsy and the post mortem or open operative findings were possible in 41 cases. Discrepancy was found in one case regarding the tumor detection, and in three cases regarding the tumor grading. The mortality in our patients was 1% and the morbidity 3%. Stereotactical biopsy had a low risk even in deep brain regions such as basal ganglia, mesencephalon, and pons. At the same time the high histologic validity makes the CT-guided stereotactical biopsy re…
The impact of conversion on the risk of major complication following laparoscopic colonic surgery: an international, multicentre prospective audit.
2018
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopy has now been implemented as a standard of care for elective colonic resection around the world. During the adoption period, studies showed that conversion may be detrimental to patients, with poorer outcomes than both laparoscopic completed or planned open surgery. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether laparoscopic conversion was associated with a higher major complication rate than planned open surgery in contemporary, international practice.METHODS: Combined analysis of the European Society of Coloproctology 2017 and 2015 audits. Patients were included if they underwent elective resection of a colonic segment from the caecum to the rectosigmoid jun…
Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Individual Patient Data Comparing Minimally Invasive With Open Oesophagectomy for Cancer
2021
Minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO) for oesophageal cancer may reduce surgical complications compared with open oesophagectomy. MIO is, however, technically challenging and may impair optimal oncological resection. The aim of the present study was to assess if MIO for cancer is beneficial.A systematic literature search in MEDLINE, Web of Science and CENTRAL was performed and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing MIO with open oesophagectomy were included in a meta-analysis. Survival was analysed using individual patient data. Random-effects model was used for pooled estimates of perioperative effects.Among 3219 articles, six RCTs were identified including 822 patients. Three-yea…
Comparison of endoscopic and open resection for Haglund tuberosity in a cadaver study.
2006
Background: About half of patients who have Haglund disease may require treatment by surgical resection of the superior portion of the calcaneal tuberosity. Endoscopic techniques have been described as alternatives to open surgery, but only results of uncontrolled retrospective clinical investigations have been reported. Up to now no research is available which compares these different procedures. Methods: A controlled laboratory study was done to evaluate the morphologic appearance of the superior portion of the calcaneal tuberosity after endoscopic or open resection. The tuberosity was resected in 15 isolated fresh-frozen human cadaver lower limb specimens with either open (nine) or endos…
