Presenting Symptoms

AbstractSphenoid wing meningiomas are benign tumors that can result in proptosis, visual impairment, and pain. Traditional open surgical approaches are associated with significant morbidity. Transorbital endoscopic surgery has been developed as a minimally invasive approach to gain access to these tumors and address the main presenting symptoms. Case series reporting transorbital endoscopic resection of sphenoid wing meningiomas using combined endonasal, pre-caruncular, and extended superior eyelid approaches have demonstrated stable and/or improved short- and medium-term visual outcomes. Earlier medial optic nerve decompression appears to result in more favorable long-term visual outcomes. Transorbital endoscopic surgery therefore represents an emerging minimally invasive alternative to deal with these challenging lesions.

Invasive Approach

Abstract Background Minimally invasive liver resections (MILRs) have been increasingly performed in recent years. However, the majority of MILRs are actually minor or limited resections of peripheral lesions. Due to the technical complexity major hepatectomies remain challenging for minimally invasive surgery. The aim of this study was to compare the short and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing minimally invasive right hepatectomies (MIRHs) with contemporary patients undergoing open right hepatectomies (ORHs). Methods Consecutive patients submitted to anatomic right hepatectomies between January 2013 and December 2018 in two tertiary referral centers were studied. Study groups were compared on an intention-to-treat basis after propensity score matching (PSM). Overall survival (OS) analyses were performed for the entire cohort and specific etiologies subgroups. Results During study period 178 right hepatectomies were performed. After matching, 37 patients were included in MIRH group and 60 in ORH group. The groups were homogenous for all baseline characteristics. MIRHs had significant lower blood loss (400 ml vs. 500 ml, P = 0.01), lower rate of minor complications (13.5% vs. 35%, P = 0.03) and larger resection margins (10 mm vs. 5 mm, P = 0.03) when compared to ORHs. Additionally, a non-significant decrease in hospital stay (ORH 9 days vs. MIRH 7 days, P = 0.09) was observed. No differences regarding the use of Pringle’s maneuver, operative time, major complications or perioperative mortality were observed. OS was similar between the groups (P = 0.13). Similarly, no difference in OS was found in subgroups of patients with primary liver tumors (P = 0.09) and liver metastasis (P = 0.80). Conclusions MIRHs are feasible and safe. Minimally invasive approach is associated with less blood loss, a significant reduction in minor perioperative complications, and did not negatively affect long-term outcomes.
