Summary: Suprapubic-assisted laparoendoscopic single-site surgery nephrectomy and standard laparoscopic nephrectomy are generally equivalent in terms of safety and efficacy. However, the former offers reduced postoperative pain, shorter time before returning to work, and better overall cosmetic results compared to the latter.

Summary: This study compared the perioperative outcomes of stoma-site approach single-port laparoscopic Miles procedure and conventional multi-port laparoscopic Miles procedure in patients with low rectal cancer, as well as evaluated the safety and efficacy of stoma-site approach single-port laparoscopic surgery in low rectal cancer. The results showed no significant differences in intraoperative bleeding, number of lymph nodes, average hospital stay, and time to flatulence between the two groups, but significant differences in operation duration and perioperative complications. Patients in the single-port laparoscopic surgery group had significantly higher satisfaction scores than those in the multi-port laparoscopic surgery group.

Summary: This study compared the perioperative outcomes and survival of endometrial cancer patients undergoing transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) with multi-port laparoscopic surgery (MLS). The results showed comparable perioperative outcomes and survival rates between the two surgical methods.

Summary: The study found that robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for clinical T1 renal hilar tumors has a shorter warm ischemia time and comparable positive surgical margin rate compared to laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

Summary: This study reports the 2-year outcomes of a multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing robotic and laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. The results suggest that robotic repair may offer similar or improved outcomes compared to laparoscopy at the 2-year follow-up.

Summary: This study compared the surgical outcomes between patients undergoing the most frequently performed laparoscopic procedures using AirSeal(R) and standard CO2 insufflators. The results showed that the use of the AirSeal(R) system did not reduce operative time and was associated with higher postoperative shoulder tip pain compared to the standard CO2 insufflator for short elective surgeries.

Summary: The study demonstrated that transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery is feasible for treating urachal remnant patients, and it provides better postoperative cosmesis compared to conventional laparoscopic surgery. The procedure type was found to be an independent predictor of higher postoperative esthetic satisfaction.

Summary: This study compares the effectiveness of open partial nephrectomy and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in treating renal tumors smaller than 7 cm. The results show that there is no significant difference in surgical and oncologic outcomes between the two procedures, but laparoscopic partial nephrectomy may better preserve kidney function.

Summary: This study evaluated whether a lower pneumoperitoneum pressure during laparoscopic nephrectomy would increase cerebral oxygen saturation. The results showed that the low-pressure group had similar rSO(2), arterial blood gas, and haemoglobin values compared to the standard-pressure group at different measurement times. Four patients (12.9%) in both groups experienced cerebral desaturation. rSO(2) values were moderately correlated with CO2 and haemoglobin levels.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) in the treatment of female infertility. The results showed that compared to the LESS group, the vNOTES group had a shorter postoperative bowel movement time and less pain at 4 and 12 hours. vNOTES represents a new, less invasive approach for infertility diagnosis and treatment that is particularly suitable for women who have special esthetic requirements, and it may be an ideal choice for scarless infertility surgery.

Summary: The gasless LOFF device is safe and feasible for simple laparoscopic cholecystectomy and has advantages in avoiding CO2 pneumoperitoneum-associated cardiopulmonary side-effects. The conventional CO2 pneumoperitoneum-assisted laparoendoscopic cholecystectomy group experienced significant fluctuations in intra-operative respiratory and hemodynamic parameters compared to the LOFF-LESS group.

Summary: The study demonstrates that feelings of physical fatigue are roughly equivalent between laparoendoscopic single-site adrenalectomy (LESS-A) and conventional laparoscopic adrenalectomy (CLA) procedures, despite LESS-A being considered a technically difficult procedure.

Summary: This study compares the effectiveness of different educational tools in laparoscopic rectal surgery. The results show that 3D animation + cadaveric videos, 3D animation alone, and cadaveric videos are all superior to surgical textbooks in teaching laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Additionally, they are also more effective than textbooks in facilitating understanding of rectal surgery.
