Summary: Trans-anal excision is the surgical treatment of choice for various types of rectal tumors, with the single-port robotic (SPR) platform being a novel and safe technique for performing these procedures. The study successfully performed the SPR-TAMIS technique on five patients with no reported complications, showing promising results for non-piecemeal resections of low-risk rectal tumors. Further research is needed to evaluate long-term safety and outcomes.

Summary: The feasibility and safety of the supine anterior retroperitoneal access (SARA) technique with the da Vinci Single-Port (SP) robotic platform were assessed in patients undergoing surgery for renal cancer, urothelial cancer, or ureteral stenosis. The surgical procedure involves a 3-cm incision at the McBurney point and the development of the retroperitoneal space for robotic access. The outcomes of the surgery were favorable.

Summary: This article provides a brief overview of the da Vinci single-port (SP) platform and reviews the current literature on this technology. Although there are relatively few high-quality studies, multiple case series have demonstrated the safety and feasibility of the SP robot in the hands of experienced surgeons. Additionally, prospective studies comparing SP and multiport (MP) approaches show benefits of the SP system in terms of improved cosmesis, postoperative pain control, and decreased length of stay.

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 effects of robotic reduced-port surgery and conventional laparoscopic surgery for left-sided colorectal cancer. The results showed that the two groups were similar in most outcome measures except for the distal resection margin, which was significantly longer in the laparoscopic group. The between-group differences in reoperation, incisional hernia development, and overall and progression-free survival were not significant, but the total hospital cost was significantly higher in the robotic group. Therefore, robotic reduced-port surgery for left-sided colorectal cancer is safe and effective but more expensive with no additional benefit compared with the conventional laparoscopic approach. This observation warrants further evaluation.

Summary: Reduced-port robotic gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection appears to be comparable to the conventional four-port robotic approach in terms of postoperative pain, surgical quality, and short-term outcomes. However, further studies are needed to confirm these findings and clarify the advantages of the reduced-port robotic approach.

Summary: Intraoperative fluid restriction below 9 mL.kg-1.h-1 in cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy was associated with a higher percentage of major postoperative complications, including longer hospital stays. Conducting further research on fluid therapy strategies is crucial in reducing postoperative morbidity.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between frailty and long-term clinical outcomes after emergency surgery. The results indicate that frailty is a predictive marker of long-term mortality in patients undergoing emergency procedures, with diabetes and depression potentially representing independent risk factors for transition to frailty over time.

Summary: This study demonstrates the feasibility of using hyperspectral image analysis in the visible and near-infrared range for primary screening of SARS-CoV-2. By applying spectral feature descriptors, partial least square-discriminant analysis, and artificial intelligence, information can be extracted from fluid samples and analyzed quantitatively and descriptively. The proposed technology is reagent-free, fast, scalable, and could significantly reduce the number of molecular tests required for COVID-19 mass screening, even in resource-limited settings.

Summary: This study assessed the incidence, risk factors, and management of anastomotic leakage (AL) after total colectomy (TC) and subtotal colectomy (STC). The results showed that male sex, ASA score, and lower preoperative protein level were identified as independent risk factors for overall and Grade B-C AL. Performing diverting ileostomy in revision surgery may lower the permanent stoma rate.

Summary: A systematic literature review compared the results of different techniques used in the treatment of Crohn's disease or cryptoglandular fistula. The study found that new surgical techniques had better healing rates in Crohn's disease patients compared to traditional techniques, while traditional techniques had better results in cryptoglandular fistula. The new techniques were less invasive and could improve fecal incontinence rates.

Summary: In this study, a new approach called Hough-Isoflux(TM) was introduced for counting Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) and CTC clusters in patients with pancreatic cancer. The accuracy of the Hough-Isoflux(TM) approach for detecting pancreatic cancer cells was found to be high, with a correlation rate better for free CTCs compared to clusters in PDAC patient samples. This method can provide valuable prognostic information for pancreatic cancer patients.
