Comparison of endoscopic resection therapies for rectal neuroendocrine tumors
CONCLUSIONS: The CS-EMR technique is more effective and efficient than EMR for small rectal NETs. In addition, CS-EMR reduces procedure time, duration of post-procedure hospitalization and decreases patients' cost compared to ESD while ensuring sufficient vertical margin distances.PMID:38701133 | DOI:10.1080/13645706.2024.2330580 (Source: Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies)

Evaluation of the effect of 9.5/11.5-fr ureteral access sheath use on acute kidney injury with the myo-inositol oxygenase biomarker in patients undergoing retrograde intrarenal surgery: a prospective, randomized, and controlled study
CONCLUSION: Even if UAS is not used, significant acute kidney injury is not observed under gravity irrigation and therefore, if we avoid manual pumping, the intrarenal pressure remains low, thus potentially rendering the use of 9,5/11,5-Fr UAS unnecessary.PMID:38651905 | DOI:10.1080/13645706.2024.2340730 (Source: Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies)

From 3D to 2D-4K laparoscopic sacral colpopexy: are we addicted to technology?
CONCLUSION: The transition of urogynecology from an exclusive vaginal approach to 2D-3D-4K laparoscopy significantly increased the level of technology necessary for surgical treatment of prolapse. This could, as a result, lead to pelvic surgeons becoming increasingly dependent on technology.PMID:38648419 | DOI:10.1080/13645706.2024.2343855 (Source: Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies)

A meta-analysis: laparoscopic versus open liver resection for large hepatocellular carcinoma
CONCLUSION: LLR for large HCC is safe and feasible. This surgical strategy will not affect the long-term outcomes of patients.PMID:38634257 | DOI:10.1080/13645706.2024.2334762 (Source: Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies)
