Formation of abdominal abscesses with perforated ulcers of the stomach and duodenum with conservative treatment ranges from 3% to 14%. The main strategy for their treatment is a minimally invasive puncture treatment. A case of a patient’s late treatment of 56 years with a perforated giant gastric ulcer, the formation of a subhepatic abscess and its drainage into the lumen of the stomach is presented. Used methods of drainage of an abscess through a mini-access under the control of gastroscopy. A complex of therapeutic measures has been described, which allowed for the obliteration of an abscess cavity and the healing of a giant stomach ulcer within a month. It is concluded that the need for early use of gastroscopy in the differential diagnosis of perforated ulcers.

Abstract Background Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) procedures cause less trauma to the patient and might improve recovery. This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of condylectomy with MIS to treat interdigital corns of the lesser toes. Methods This prospective cohort study was conducted in seven podiatry centers. Patients with interdigital corns of the lesser toes, progressing for more than a year, with one or more recurrences in the last year following conservative treatments were eligible. The recruited patients were classified according to their treatment: conservative or surgical (condylectomy with MIS) and were compared. Patient satisfaction, pain, the clinical and functional status of the foot and the appearance of sequelae were assessed at 3 and 6 months after treatment. Results At 6 months, patients in the surgical treatment group showed no pain on pressure, which significantly differed from the conservative treatment group (p <  0.001). They also improved clinical and functional status of the foot, reaching values comparable to those of the standard population. No paresthesia, joint stiffness or instability, toe malalignment, or corn transfer to a contiguous site resulted from the surgical treatment. Conclusions Condylectomy with MIS is effective and safe to treat interdigital corns of the lesser toes.

Abstract Background An epithelial cyst in an intrapancreatic accessory spleen (ECIPAS) is rare. We report a case of ECIPAS that was treated with robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy. Case presentation The case was a 59-year-old woman who was referred to our hospital after a pancreatic tail tumor was found on computed tomography prior to surgery for small bowel obstruction at another hospital. A cystic lesion in the pancreatic tail was discovered and evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging and endoscopic ultrasonography. Based on clinical and radiological features, mucinous cystic neoplasm was included in the differential diagnosis. The patient underwent robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy. The postoperative course was uneventful. Pathological evaluation revealed a 20-mm ECIPAS in the pancreatic tail. Conclusions If a pancreatic tail tumor is present, ECIPAS should be included in the differential diagnosis. However, preoperative diagnosis is difficult, and a definitive diagnosis is often not obtained until after surgery. Surgery should be minimally invasive. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has become a standard surgical procedure because it is minimally invasive. Robot-assisted surgery is not only minimally invasive, but also advantageous, because it has a stereoscopic magnifying effect and allows the forceps to move smoothly. Robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy may be a good option, when performing surgery for a pancreatic tail tumor.

Bleeding of the thoracic and abdominal wall most commonly occur in anticoagulated patients [1]. The management is based on anticoagulant therapy reversal which is mostly effective [2]. If conservative treatment is insufficient, good results are provided by endovascular embolization techniques [2,3]. The need of surgical intervention is extremely rare and limited to cases in which minimally invasive techniques are unsuccessful or somehow contraindicated [4].

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCs) is the gold standard method to treat gallstone disease. But there are some complications which occur frequently as compared to open cholecystectomy.Methods: The prospective study was conducted in the Department of Surgery, Kamineni Institute of Medical Sciences, Telengana during the period of 2 years; March 2015 to February 2017. A total of 1,695 laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases were included in this study. Several treatment options such as, conservative treatment, minimally invasive treatment and open surgery was performed based on the severity of the disease.Results: Majority of patients were female (83.9%) and most common age group affected was above 40 years. Intra-operative and post-operative complication occurred in 4.5% and 1.9% patients respectively. Majority complications were treated by conservative treatment and minimally invasive treatment. So, in conclusion, we can use conservative and minimally invasive treatment to manage the complications from laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Conclusions: Conservative treatment options and minimally invasive treatment was more efficient to overcome the post-operative complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

A brief review of the natural history of peptic ulcer in infancy and childhood is given. The symptomatology, differential diagnosis and diagnostic procedures are presented. The diagnosis of peptic ulcer should be considered more often in infancy and childhood and the proper diagnostic procedures instituted. A case of gastric ulcer simulating hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is presented. A summary of 31 cases with peptic ulcers found at autopsy at the Babies Hospital from January 1, 1924 to January 1, 1950 is given. From a summary of coexistent disease found in the autopsy cases at the Babies Hospital and reports from the recent literature, it would appear that diseases of the central nervous, gastrointestinal and respiratory systems are commonly present in cases which have shown peptic ulcer at autopsy.

Spontaneous intracranial haematomas remain a challenging pathology with high morbidity and mortality (60–80% of long-term disability). Despite decades of the search for specific treatments no evidence has yet been found for neither conservative nor surgical treatment in randomized controlled studies. While patients with space occupying infratentorial haematomas are more likely to benefit from surgery treatment of supratentorial haemorrhages remains controversial. Recent studies suggest that minimally invasive surgery including endoscopy to evacuate intracranial haematoma may be more effective than conservative treatment or standard surgical craniotomy (MISTIE II). Future studies (i.e. MISTIE III, MISTICH, SWITCH) will hopefully demonstrate evidence for individualized treatments.

✓The authors present the case of a 71-year-old man who presented with neck pain, a history of gout, and a mass in the dens. Results of transoral endoscopic biopsy sampling demonstrated tophaceous gout. The patient was treated medically and the pain resolved. Tophaceous gout isolated in the dens is extremely rare and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of masses in this region. With the aid of transoral or transnasal endoscopic biopsy sampling, the diagnosis can be reached in a minimally invasive manner.
