Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the results of 300 cases of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) performed by the same surgeon. Material and methods: During the study period, a total of 300 TLH operations were performed between January 2017 and December 2018. Demographic characteristics, indications of hysterectomy, uterine weights, intra-operative and post-operative complications, duration of the operation, length of hospital stay, blood loss of patients, visual analogue scores and amount of analgesics needed were retrospectively evaluated. Complications were analysed and compared with literature. Results: Parameters analysed for 300 patients included in the study were as follows: mean age 47.82 ± 6.18 years, mean parity 3.4 ± 2.0 (0–11), BMI 27.41 ± 4.36 (kg/m²), mean uterine weight 367.67 ± 266.21 g (50–1600 g), mean operative time 89.07 ± 37.94 min (30–240 min), mean hospital stay 54.37 ± 21.95 h (24–168 h) and total complication rate 28 (9.3%). Conversion to open surgery was required in 29 (9.7%) patients. The level of technical difficulty and existence of prior abdominal surgery were associated with a higher risk of complications and conversions to laparotomy. Conclusion: Total laparoscopic hysterectomy is a well-designed surgical procedure for the management of benign gynaecological conditions, and after adequate training, it seems to be a safe and effective procedure for patients.

Background: Hysterectomy is the second most common operation performed by the gynecologists, next only to caesarean section. Objective of the study was to compare fall in blood haemoglobin level, duration of operation, intra- and post-op complications between non-descent vaginal hysterectomy and total laparoscopic hysterectomy and establish the better method for hysterectomy in non-descent uterus.Methods: A retrospective comparative study of 90 hysterectomies was done from a period of May 2018 - April 2019 at GMERS Medical College and Hospital Sola, with 45 cases in group of non-descent vaginal hysterectomy (NDVH) and 45 in group of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Demographic characteristics, co-morbid conditions, indications for surgery, operative time, intra- operative blood loss, post-operative analgesia requirements, post-operative hospital stay and post-operative complications were compared between both groups. Those patients having malignancy as diagnosed by Pap smear or by D and C were excluded from the studyResults: The most common age in both groups was 41-50 years. Adenomyotic uterus was the most common indication for surgery in both groups. The mean operative time in NDVH group was 45 min while it was 80 min in TLH group. p<0.001 suggested significant difference when operative time were compared between both groups. Both groups were similar in post-operative analgesia requirement and post-operative hospital stay. Post-operative complications were similar in both groups.Conclusions: In which way to approach the uterus shall depend upon skill of the surgeon, size and pathological nature of uterus, technology available in the hospital and preference of patient as well as surgeon.

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of modified Bakay technique (MT) to standard colpotomy (ST) and cuff closure in total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Methods This two-centre, randomized-controlled study included a total of 160 patients who were scheduled for TLH for benign diseases (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier is NCT05080114 and the first posted date was 15/10/2021). The patients were allocated into two groups by a computer-based randomization programme as ST group and MT group. Total operative time, cuff closure time, length of hospital stay, intra- and postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, pre- and postoperative vaginal length, and patient satisfaction according to the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) questionnaire were assessed. Results Seventy-seven patients in the ST group and 80 patients in the MT group underwent TLH. The total operative time was significantly shorter in the MT compared to the ST (55.5 vs. 59 min, respectively; p = 0.001). The median total operative time for colpotomy, extraction of uterus, and vaginal cuff closure steps was 9 (range 6–12 in MT vs. 6 to 11 in ST) min in both groups. The median hospital stay was 2 (range 1–4) days in both groups. Intraoperative blood loss was not significantly different between the groups (90 mL in ST vs. 80 mL in MT; p = 0.456). The mean uterine weight for the ST group and MT group was comparable (258.6 ± 88.6 g vs. 232.9 ± 102.5 g, respectively; p = 0.107). The preoperative vaginal length was not significantly different between the groups (p = 0.502). The median postoperative vaginal length was significantly higher in the MT group compared to the ST group on Day 90 (8 cm vs. 7,5 cm, respectively; p = 0.001). The PGI-I questionnaire score on Day 90 postoperatively was 2 (range 1–5) in both groups (p = 0.636). The complication rates were similar between the groups (p = 0.230). Conclusion The MT can be safely performed in most of the cases requiring TLH with the advantages of vaginal cuff closure before the alteration of pelvic anatomy, support to primary healing of the vaginal cuff, and routine concomitant apical support.

Abstract Background: Our aim in this study was to investigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on acute appendicitis cases.Methods: This study was designed as a single-center, retrospective, and observational study. The patients were divided into three groups relative to the date of the first COVID-19 case in Turkey, which was March 10, 2020 (Group A: before the pandemic; Group B: pandemic period; Group C: the same period one year before the pandemic). A total of 413 patients were included in the study.Results: In terms of treatment modality, the rate of open appendectomy was significantly higher in group B (p<0.001). Rates of conversion to open surgery, as well as rates of complicated appendicitis were also significantly higher in group B (p=0.027, p=0.024, respectively). While there was no difference between the groups in terms of preoperative hospitalization duration (p=0.102), it was found that the duration of symptoms, operation time, and postoperative length of hospital stay were significantly higher in Group B (p<0.001, p=0.011, p=0.001, respectively). In addition, the complication rate in group B (8.9%) was also significantly higher than in the other two groups (p=0.023).Conclusion: We found that the rate of open surgery, the rate of conversion of laparoscopic surgery to open surgery, complication rates, mean operation time, and postoperative hospital stay were significantly higher in acute appendicitis patients that underwent surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic period. We believe that the main reason for this negative outcome is the late admission of the patients to the hospital.

Abstract   Laparoscopic fundoplication is the gold standard for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, RNY reconstruction may be an alternative option in patients with complex pathophysiology and other risk factors. This study aimed to compare perioperative and short-term outcomes between primary fundoplication and RNY reconstruction. Methods After IRB approval, a prospectively maintained esophageal surgery database was retrospectively reviewed to identify patients who underwent primary fundoplication or RNY reconstruction from September 2016 to July 2020. We retrieved perioperative outcomes (operative time, length of hospital stay, intraoperative and postoperative complications) along with GERD-Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) scores at annual follow-up. Results During the study period, 226 patients underwent surgery (fundoplication: 210; RNY: 16). The most common indication for RNY was severe esophageal dysmotility or morbid obesity. There was only one conversion to open surgery due to adhesions (fundoplication group). The operative time, length of hospital stay, and ICU stay were significantly lower in the fundoplication group. Rates of intraoperative (fundoplication: 3% vs RNY: 0) and postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥II) (fundoplication: 3% vs RNY: 6%) were not significantly different between groups. Both groups had a significant and similar improvement of GERD-HRQL scores 1 year after surgery (Table 1). Conclusion Primary antireflux surgery is associated with low perioperative morbidity and excellent short-term outcomes. RNY reconstruction and fundoplication have similar outcomes. More liberal use of RNY reconstruction as the primary antireflux surgery in patients at high risk of failure with fundoplication should be explored.

Abstract Background Hysterectomy remains one of the most common major gynaecological procedures, with total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) now established as the technique of choice over conventional open approaches. This approach depends on the use of a uterine manipulator to facilitate uterine retraction and colpotomy. This study describes a novel approach in performing total laparoscopic hysterectomy without the use of uterine manipulator or vaginal tubes and reports the intra- and postoperative outcome of this technique. Methods A single-centre retrospective analysis of patients who underwent TLH without uterine manipulator or vaginal tube “Kamran’s TLH” for benign conditions was performed from January 2017 to October 2019. Data collected included patients’ demographics, intraoperative finding and postoperative course. Results A total of eighty-six hysterectomies were performed utilizing the Kamran’s TLH (KTLH) approach. Mean age was 52.2 (± 11) years old and BMI was 28.2 (± 7). TLH with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed in 63 (73.3%) patients and TLH with preservation of ovaries in 23 (26.7%) patients. Mean operative time was 64.7 (± 27.9) min and estimated bloods loss was 46.2 (± 54.6) ml. No intraoperative complications were recorded and there was no conversion to open surgery. Only one patient required readmission and surgery for vaginal vault dehiscence during their postoperative course. Conclusion Uterine manipulator is a key component in performing laparoscopic hysterectomy. However, our approach demonstrated that TLH can be safely performed without the use of any uterine or vaginal manipulation.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the impact of systematic laparoscopic skills and suture training (SLSST) on the total laparoscopic hysterectomy intra- and postoperative outcomes in a Brazilian teaching hospital. Methods A cross-sectional observational study in which 244 charts of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) patients operated from 2008 to 2014 were reviewed. Patient-specific (age, parity, previous cesarean sections, abdominal surgeries and endometriosis) and surgery-related variables (hospital stay, operative time, uterine volume and operative complications) were analyzed in three different time-frame groups: 2008-09 (I-1) – TLHs performed by senior attending physicians; 2010-11 (I-2) – TLHs performed by residents before the implementation of the SLSST program; and 2012-14 (I-3) – TLHs performed by residents after the implementation of the SLSST program. Results A total of 244 TLH patients (mean age: 45.93 years) were included: 24 (I-1), 55 (I-2), and 165 (I-3). The main indication for TLH was uterine myoma (66.4%). Group I-3 presented a decrease in surgical time compared to group I-2 (p = 0.010). Hospital stay longer than 2 days decreased in group I-3 compared to group I-2 (p = 0.010). Although we observed decreased uterine volume (154.2 cm3) in group I-2 compared to group I-1 (217.8 cm3) (p = 0.030), logistic regression did not find any association between uterine volume and surgical time (p = 0.103). Conclusion The total operative time for laparoscopic hysterectomy was significantly shorter in the group of patients (I-3) operated after the systematic laparoscopic skills and suture training was introduced in our hospital.

Background: Total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (TLPD) has become more feasible and preferred surgery for periampullary tumour. With the innovation of latest equipment and continuous learning curve, this has become more sophisticated and rampant, along the advantages of minimal invasive surgery.  Methods: We analysed data of all the 26 patients who underwent TLPD from October 2015 to November 2019. Preoperative haematological, liver function test, tumour marker, MRCP, triphasic CT, scan with pancreatic protocol, endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration or brush cytology done for confirmation of diagnosis, nodal status and operability. Meticulously selected patients with periampullary carcinoma of tumour size≤2.5 cm included. Demographic data, operative time, length of hospital stay, post-operative complication and pathological analyses of resected specimen (en bloc) observed. Results: TLPD for periampullary tumours attempted in twenty-six patients among them six converted to open surgery. Patients were of both genders and mean age was 45 (27-60, SD7.4) years. The mean operative time was 353 SD 28.77 (306-420) minutes. Postoperatively, there were few complications and mean length of hospital stay was 11 (9-13 days) days. The histopathology revealed maximum no. of cholangiocarcinoma with negative margins and positive nodes in all the patients.Conclusions: TLPD is feasible, safe and promising alternative to the standard open surgery with expert hands. This has benefits of short hospital stay, less blood loss, cosmetic, early recovery with few complications. Short-term surgical outcomes are superior or comparable to open surgery.
