LAPAROSCOPIC ADRENALECTOMY: SINGLE CENTRE EXPERIENCE.

2013

Objective: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is today considered the gold standard treatment for all benign adrenal tumors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in a single centre. Methods: We reviewed clinical data on 32 adrenalectomies performed at our istitution from 2009 to 2012. The average age of patients was 47 years (range 38-68); 18 were men and 14 women. For the clinical analysis, patients were divided into the nonfunctioning tumor group (n = 20) and the functioning tumor group (n = 12). All operations were performed via transperitoneal lateral access. Results: All laparoscopic adrenalectomy were finished successfully and no open surgery was nece…

Laparoscopic management of adrenal tumors: A four-year experience in a single center

2014

AIM: Today laparoscopy is considered the first choice treatment of many adrenal tumors, although its use is still controversial for large adrenal masses and incidentally found adrenal cortical carcinoma. METHODS: From January 2009 to February 2014 we performed 42 lateral transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomies. The indications for surgery were non-functioning adenoma larger than 4 cm or rapid growth and hormone-secreting tumor. The diagnosis was confirmed in all cases with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging and also metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy if pheochromocytoma was suspected. In all cases we realized a complete preoperative hormonal study. We describe and ana…

S.I.L.C.indicazione e limiti: Risultati preliminari

2009

L'evoluzione della tecnica laparoscopica associata all'innovazione tecnologica ha permesso di aprire nuovi orizzonti all'approccio alla colecistectomia. Gli Autori presentano la loro iniziale esperienza (9 casi) sulla S.I.L.C. (single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy). Gli stessi, nel presente lavoro, ne descrivono la tecnica. Lo studio, senza enfatizzare i risultati, ne propone indicazioni elimiti.Da questa iniziale esperienza gli Autori traggono degli spunti di affinamento tecnico e miglioramento tecnologico.Gli Autori concludono che la S.I.L.C. non può sostituire la colecistectomia laparoscopica, attuale "gold standard", ma costituisce una tecnica più convincente della N.O.T.E.S.

A 3D totally absorbable synthetic mesh in antireflux surgery: Gore Bio-A tissue reinforcement for hiatal hernia repairing

2015

Introduction Hiatal hernia, defined as “transitory or stable dislocation of a part of the stomach in mediastinum through the diaphragmatic crura delimiting esophageal hiatus”. Its appearance presupposes anatomic anomalies or weakening of structures and mechanisms able to maintain esophago-gastric junction and stomach in the abdominal cavity [1]. Classically hiatal hernia was classified in four types using Hill’s classification: Type 1 hiatal hernia is associated with GERD in 50-90% of cases, in facts its presence gradually compromises esophago-gastric junction’s continence favouriting the backwater of acid secretion and its reflux in contact with esophageal mucosa during transient relaxatio…

LAPAROSCOPIC LEFT LIVER SECTIONECTOMY (LLLS) FOR PEDIATRIC LIVING RELATED LIVER TRANSPLANTATION (LRLT)

2011

PURPOSE: LRLT in children is a method to provide organs for transplantation. We report 2 cases of LLLS for pediatric LRLT. METHOD: Donor position: lithotomy with surgeon in French position. Trocars: three 12 mm, placed 2 cm upper the supra-umbilical mid-line and sub-costal bi-lateral on the nipple lines; one 5 mm in epigastrium. Special instrumentation: harmonic scissor, ligasure®, Hem-O-Lock clips, and Endo Catch-II® bag. Main steps: division of round, falciform, left triangular ligaments and of lesser omentum; inspection of anatomy; hepatic hilum dissection with exposure of the left hepatic artery; dissection of the right side of the falciform ligament with exposure of the left branch of …

A prospective randomized study comparing laparoscopic burch versus tvt. Short and long term follow-up.

2003

Objective: To report short and long-terms results of a prospective randomized laparoscopic Burch vs TVT for the treatment of stress incontinence (GSI). Methods: Since January 1999 to January 2003 we performed 66 LB and 67 TVT. In the LB group the mean age was 51years ( range 38–65), mean body weight 73 Kg.(range 48–88), mean parity 2,5 (range 1–5), menopause 38 (57,5%), while in the TVT group the mean age was 53years (range 37–72), mean body weight 70Kg. (range 46–84), mean parity 2,3 (range 1–4), menopause 19 (28,3%). All pts. preoperativelly underwent a complete urogynaecological work-up . All the pts. showed S.U.I. mean grade II (according to Ingelman Sundeberg) and urethra hypermobile. …
