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.

In this article, we reviewed the techniques and outcomes of minimally invasive surgery for gallbladder cancer performed at an expert center. The techniques of laparoscopic extended cholecystectomy with the short- and long-term outcomes at our center were described. The short- and long-term survival outcomes of laparoscopic extended cholecystectomy are comparable to open surgery. Laparoscopic surgery is a safe, effective alternative for open surgery in the treatment of gallbladder cancer. The benefits of robotic surgery should be proven with further research.

Laparoscopic gastrectomy is evolving. With the increasing expertise and experience of oncologic surgeons in the minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer, the indication for laparoscopic gastrectomy is expanding to advanced cases. Many studies have demonstrated the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, including reduced risk of surgery-related injury, reduced blood loss, less pain, and earlier recovery. In order to establish concrete evidence for the suitability of minimal invasive surgery for gastric cancer, many multicenter RCTs, comparing the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic versus open surgery, are in progress. Advances in laparoscopic gastrectomy are moving toward increasingly minimally invasive approaches that enable the improvement of the quality of life of patients, without compromising on oncologic safety.
