Summary: Pure laparoscopic donor right hepatectomy is feasible and safe in experienced living donor liver transplantation centers, although it may result in longer operation and recovery times. Complication rates in donors are similar, but recipients may have higher rates of certain biliary complications.

Summary: This study compared the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic gastrectomy versus open procedures in patients with gastric cancer. Results showed that laparoscopic gastrectomy had superior 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival, lower recurrence rates, and shorter hospital stay compared to open gastrectomy, demonstrating that laparoscopic gastrectomy can be safely applied in both early and locally advanced gastric cancer.

Summary: After the learning curve of LPD surgery, LPD performed by experienced surgeons is safe and effective. Compared to OPD, the postoperative length of stay is shorter for LPD patients, and the incidence rate of serious postoperative morbidities and mortality rates are similar.

Summary: This meta-analysis compared the outcomes of hybrid laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy and open pancreatoduodenectomy, showing that hybrid laparoscopic surgery had significantly longer operative time but comparable postoperative parameters and major morbidity to open surgery.

Summary: This study compared the differences between laparoscopic and open surgery in terms of wound infection rates and recovery outcomes. The results showed that laparoscopic surgery outperformed open surgery in terms of operative time, blood loss, hospital stay, and postoperative pain management. The study highlighted the potential of laparoscopic surgery for specific surgical interventions and emphasized the importance of personalized surgical strategy decision-making.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of open and laparoscopic surgery for perforated peptic ulcers. The results showed that laparoscopic surgery was significantly associated with fewer postoperative complications and a shorter hospital stay, and should be considered as the first-choice approach.

Summary: This study compared the hospitalization costs and clinical outcomes between robotic-assisted surgery and laparoscopic approaches for major abdominal operations, and found that the costs of robotic-assisted surgery were higher but did not result in significant clinical benefits.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the impact of laparoscopic surgery on weight loss parameters in morbid obese patients who underwent BPD, finding that laparoscopic surgery resulted in significantly shorter hospital stays and reduced incidence of incisional hernias compared to open surgery, with no significant difference in early postoperative complications.

Summary: This systematic review compared laparoscopic with open surgery for colon cancer treatment and found no significant difference in recurrence kinetics, overall survival, or disease-free survival at three or five years between the two approaches.

Summary: This study developed and validated multivariable logistic regression models to predict major complications of laparoscopic or abdominal hysterectomy for benign conditions. The models showed consistent discrimination in the development cohort and similar or better discrimination in the validation cohort. Adhesions were the most predictive factor for complications in both models.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the postoperative outcomes between laparoscopic and open feeding jejunostomy. The results showed that laparoscopic approach had a lower postoperative complication rate compared with laparotomy, especially after excluding major concomitant procedures. Therefore, laparoscopic feeding jejunostomy demonstrated superior performance in terms of postoperative complications.

Summary: This study retrospectively compared the short-term surgical outcomes and recurrence rates between laparoscopic and open surgery for pediatric intussusception. The results showed no significant differences in these outcomes between the two surgical methods, indicating that laparoscopic surgery is an acceptable treatment option.

Summary: In a multicenter randomized trial conducted in the Netherlands, laparoscopic gastrectomy did not show a significant advantage over open gastrectomy in terms of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and oncological outcomes for Western patients with predominantly advanced gastric cancer undergoing multimodality treatment. Both procedures demonstrated similar results in postoperative complications and oncological efficacy.
