Abstract
AIM To identify factors influencing the Trendelenburg angle required during laparoscopic gynecological surgery. METHODS Patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery at a single university hospital between May 1, 2019, and March 31, 2021 were enrolled. Data were extracted from the medical records, while magnetic resonance imaging scans and all laparoscopic surgery videos were retrospectively reviewed to assess the presence of the small intestine in the pelvic cavity as well as the adhesions at each site. Groups with and without the small intestine in the pelvic cavity, and those requiring a Trendelenburg angle above or below 13° were compared. RESULTS In total, 219 patients were examined. The Trendelenburg angle was significantly higher (p = 0.004), while a significant increase in ovarian adhesions was observed (p = 0.033; odds ratio [OR], 2.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05-5.01) in the group without the presence of the small intestine in the pelvic cavity. Furthermore, the group requiring a Trendelenburg angle of ≥13° had significantly thicker subcutaneous fat (p = 0.044) and more ileal adhesions (p = 0.040, OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.03-3.23) than the group with an angle of <13°. CONCLUSION Cases of ileal adhesions or thick subcutaneous fat are more likely to require a Trendelenburg angle of ≥13°. Therefore, Trendelenburg complications should be considered in this group. In addition, ovarian adhesions make it more difficult to exclude the small intestine from the small pelvic cavity, and may be associated with endometriosis.

Suprapubic Transvesical Adenoma Resection of the Prostate (STAR-P): A Novel Technique for Surgical Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. Eur Urol Focus 2024:S2405-4569(24)00072-5. [PMID: 38839508 DOI: 10.1016/j.euf.2024.05.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Several minimally invasive treatments have been developed to treat benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) via a transurethral approach, with a non-negligible risk of complications such as urethral stricture and external sphincter damage. Our aim was to present the Gozzi surgical technique for suprapubic transvesical adenoma resection of the prostate (STAR-P) for BPO and to assess its safety, feasibility, and outcomes. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 44 consecutive patients who underwent STAR-P for BPO. All the procedures were performed in a single private hospital by one surgeon from 2020 to 2022. An innovative resectoscope designed by the surgeon was subsequently produced by Tontarra Medizintechnik (Wurmlingen, Germany) with a 42.06 Fr external sheath that allows the use of loops of three different sizes. The instrument is inserted into the bladder via suprapubic access, which ensures greater freedom of movement without compromising the external sphincter. Clinical data were retrospectively collected. Preoperative and intraoperative variables, postoperative complications, and functional outcomes of the STAR-P procedure were assessed. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed. KEY FINDINGS AND LIMITATIONS No intraoperative complications were observed. Two patients (4.5%) experienced urinary urgency symptoms after catheter removal that resolved within 90 d. Median times were 105 min for surgery overall and 65 min for resection. All patients showed an improvement in voiding quality. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS STAR-P is a safe, feasible, and cost-effective procedure that spares the bulbomembranous and penile urethra and the external urethral sphincter, and should be discussed with patients as a possible option for treatment of BPO. PATIENT SUMMARY We describe a new, safe, and feasible technique for surgical treatment of urinary obstruction caused by a large prostate. Keyhole surgery is performed through the lower abdomen, which means that the urethra below the prostate is not damaged. Only a small scar of 2-3 cm in the lower abdomen is evident at the end of the healing process.

[PMID: 38694343 PMCID: PMC11060214 DOI: 10.1097/ms9.0000000000001821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective One of the common methods of anaesthesia for caesarean sections (CSs) involves the use of spinal anaesthesia in mothers. Various positions are utilized in this method. This study aims to compare the evaluation of two positions, Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg, in candidates for CS to assess the duration of anaesthesia and changes in vital signs in women. Methods This study was a randomized clinical trial in which 60 pregnant mothers who met the inclusion criteria entered the study. These mothers were randomly allocated into two equal groups using block randomization. One group of patients received spinal anaesthesia in the Trendelenburg position, while the other group received it in the Reverse Trendelenburg position. Vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, Apgar score, and SPO2) of participants from both groups were evaluated for 1 h after the induction of anaesthesia. Additionally, sensory level and duration of anaesthesia were measured. Finally, the data from both groups were subjected to statistical analysis using SPSS version 26 software. Results The mean (SD) age of participating mothers in the Reverse Trendelenburg and Trendelenburg groups was 28.93 (5.82) and 30.97 (4.94), respectively. The two study groups did not significantly differ in baseline characteristics such as age, BMI, which could potentially impact vital sign outcomes or anaesthesia duration, and education (P>0.05). The mean (SD) duration of anaesthesia in the Trendelenburg position was significantly higher than in the Reverse Trendelenburg position [221.57(min) vs. 159.00(min)] (P<0.0001). There was no significant difference between the two positions, Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg, in terms of sensory level and its extent (P=0.08). The two study groups did not significantly differ in hemodynamic changes measured 13 times, including heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and Apgar score (P>0.05). Conclusion In spinal anaesthesia with the Trendelenburg position compared to the Reverse Trendelenburg position, there is a longer duration of anaesthesia. This is while the two positions did not differ in terms of hemodynamic changes and sensory level.

Abstract
Upper extremity complications are often a problem in robot-assisted pelvic surgery (RAPS) with the lithotomy-Trendelenburg position (LT-position). This study focused on upper extremity contact pressure (UEP) and examined the relationship between UEP and upper extremity complications. From May 2020 to April 2022 at the University of Tokyo Hospital, UEP was measured in 155 patients undergoing RARP and 20 patients undergoing RARC. A total of 350 sets of UEP were investigated in this study. UEP was measured using a portable interface pressure sensor (Palm Q, Cape CO., Kanagawa, Japan) in the preoperative lithotripsy position (L-position), preoperative LT-position, and postoperative L-position. UEP was increased in the preoperative LT-position than in the preoperative L-position (right side 5.2 mmHg vs. 17.1 mmHg, left side 5.3 mmHg vs. 17.1 mmHg, P < 0.001, respectively), and was decreased in the postoperative L-position than in preoperative LT-position (right side 17.1 mmHg vs. 10.8 mmHg, left side 17.1 mmHg vs. 10.6 mmHg, P < 0.001, respectively). Eleven upper extremities developed shoulder pain. UEP of the preoperative LT-position tended to be higher in the upper extremity exhibiting shoulder pain (25.6 mmHg (15.4-30.3) vs. 17.1 mmHg (12.0-24.4) P = 0.0901). UEP measurements may help prevent postoperative shoulder pain.

J Pers Med 2023; 13:1666. [PMID: 38138893 PMCID: PMC10744565 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13121666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP), restrictive fluid therapy (RFT) is often utilized until the vesicourethral anastomosis (console period) is completed. RFT can cause acute kidney injury (AKI). Thus, RFT prolongation in surgeries that utilize the Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum may increase the risk of postoperative AKI. We aimed to evaluate the effect of RFT duration on postoperative AKI. METHODS Forty-four patients who underwent RALP were included in this prospective observational study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the RFT duration (Group I, RFT duration ≤ 3 h, and Group II, RFT duration >3 h). AKI was diagnosed and staged according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria (KDIGO) using patients' serum creatinine levels after the first 24 h postoperatively. Hemodynamic parameters were monitored using the pressure recording analytical method. RESULTS The AKI incidence was significantly higher in Group II than in Group I (45.5% vs. 9.1%; p = 0.016). In both groups, all patients who developed AKI were KDIGO stage 1 and all recovered on the second postoperative day. At the end of the console period, the heart rate and arterial elastance were significantly higher, whereas the stroke volume index was significantly lower in Group II than in Group I (p = 0.041, p = 0.016, and p < 0.001, respectively). Although the amounts of fluid administered before and after the anastomosis were similar between the groups, the total amount of fluid administered was significantly different (p < 0.001). There was a significant negative correlation between RFT duration and the total amount of fluid administered (r2 = 0.43, p < 0.001). RFT duration of >3 h, total fluid administration of ≤3.3 mL/kg/h, and stroke volume index (SVI) at the end of the console period of ≤32 mL/m2 increased the risk of AKI by 12.0 times (1.7-85.2) (p = 0.013). CONCLUSION RFT prolongation in RALP may increase the risk of developing AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of robotic surgery is attracting ever-growing interest for its potential advantages such as small incisions, fine movements, and magnification of the operating field. Only a few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have explored the differences in perioperative outcomes between the two approaches. METHODS We screened the main online databases from inception to May 2023. We included studies in English enrolling adult patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery. We used the following exclusion criteria: surgery with the involvement of thoracic esophagus, and patients affected by severe heart, pulmonary and end-stage renal disease. We compared intra- and post-operative complications, length of hospitalization, and costs between laparoscopic and robotic approaches. RESULTS A total of 18 RCTs were included. We found no differences in the rate of anastomotic leakage, cardiovascular complications, estimated blood loss, readmission, deep vein thrombosis, length of hospitalization, mortality, and post-operative pain between robotic and laparoscopic surgery; post-operative pneumonia was less frequent in the robotic approach. The conversion to open surgery was less frequent in the robotic approach, which was characterized by shorter time to first flatus but higher operative time and costs. CONCLUSIONS The robotic gastrointestinal surgery has some advantages compared to the laparoscopic technique such as lower conversion rate, faster recovery of bowel movement, but it has higher economic costs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and describe a technique of primary retroperitoneal approach for vessel-sparing D3-lymph node dissection in the left colon and rectal cancer surgery; to evaluate the short-term results of the first series of patients treated with a new minimally invasive method. MATERIAL AND METHODS The first 10 patients with adenocarcinoma of the left colon and rectum, who underwent surgical treatment using the retroperitoneal approach with vessel-sparing D3 lymph node dissection, were included in the study. The primary retroperitoneal approach involved mobilization of the left side of the colon, D3 lymph node dissection with skeletonization of inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and selective ligation of afferent vessels from retroperitoneal space using SILS access system at the first steps of surgery. Intersection of visceral and parietal peritoneum, as well as intersection of mesentery within the bowel resection borders was performed laparoscopically. Surgical specimen was removed through retroperitoneal access incision. RESULTS Duration of retroperitoneal stage with lymph node dissection was 100 min (70.0-115.0). There were 28.5 (22-37) regional lymph nodes removed during vessel-sparing D3 lymph node dissection with IMA skeletalization, 3 (1-4) metastatic regional lymph nodes and 3.5 (2-5) apical nodes. In 4 out of 10 patients, we damaged visceral peritoneum during retroperitoneal dissection. Two patients developed Clavien-Dindo grade 1-2 complications. Mean postoperative hospital stay was 8 days (5-12). CONCLUSION We developed retroperitoneal vessel-sparing D3 lymph node dissection for the treatment of left colon and rectal cancer. Initial results demonstrated safety and feasibility of this approach.

Lung mechanics during video-assisted abdominal surgery in Trendelenburg position: a cross-sectional propensity-matched comparison between classic laparoscopy and robotic-assisted surgery. BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:356. [PMID: 36411445 PMCID: PMC9677621 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01900-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Video-assisted surgery has become an increasingly used surgical technique in patients undergoing major thoracic and abdominal surgery and is associated with significant perioperative respiratory and cardiovascular changes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of intraoperative pneumoperitoneum during video-assisted surgery on respiratory physiology in patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery compared to patients undergoing classic laparoscopy in Trendelenburg position. METHODS Twenty-five patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) were compared with twenty patients undergoing classic laparoscopy (LAS). Intraoperative ventilatory parameters (lung compliance and plateau airway pressure) were recorded at five specific timepoints: after induction of anesthesia, after carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation, one-hour, and two-hours into surgery and at the end of surgery. At the same time, arterial and end-tidal CO2 values were noted and arterial to end-tidal CO2 gradient was calculated. RESULTS We observed a statistically significant difference in plateau pressure between RAS and LAS at one-hour (26.2 ± 4.5 cmH2O vs. 20.2 ± 3.5 cmH2O, p = 0.05) and two-hour intervals (25.2 ± 5.7 cmH2O vs. 17.9 ± 3.1 cmH2O, p = 0.01) during surgery and at the end of surgery (19.9 ± 5.0 cmH2O vs. 17.0 ± 2.7 cmH2O, p = 0.02). Significant changes in lung compliance were also observed between groups at one-hour (28.2 ± 8.5 mL/cmH2O vs. 40.5 ± 13.9 mL/cmH2O, p = 0.01) and two-hour intervals (26.2 ± 7.8 mL/cmH2O vs. 54.6 ± 16.9 mL/cmH2O, p = 0.01) and at the end of surgery (36.3 ± 9.9 mL/cmH2O vs. 58.2 ± 21.3 mL/cmH2O, p = 0.01). At the end of surgery, plateau pressures remained higher than preoperative values in both groups, but lung compliance remained significantly lower than preoperative values only in patients undergoing RAS with a mean 24% change compared to 1.7% change in the LAS group (p = 0.01). We also noted a more significant arterial to end-tidal CO2 gradient in the RAS group compared to LAS group at one-hour (12.9 ± 4.5 mmHg vs. 7.4 ± 4.4 mmHg, p = 0.02) and two-hours interval (15.2 ± 4.5 mmHg vs. 7.7 ± 4.9 mmHg, p = 0.02), as well as at the end of surgery (11.0 ± 6.6 mmHg vs. 7.0 ± 4.6 mmHg, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Video-assisted surgery is associated with significant changes in lung mechanics after induction of pneumoperitoneum. The observed changes are more severe and longer-lasting in patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery compared to classic laparoscopy.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102844. [PMID: 35628970 PMCID: PMC9146028 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Intraocular pressure occurring during the Trendelenburg position may be a risk for postoperative visual loss and other ocular complications. Intraocular pressure (IOP) higher than 21 mmHg poses a risk for ocular impairment causing several conditions such as glaucoma, detached retina, and postoperative vision loss. Many factors might play a role in IOP increase, like peak expiratory pressure (PIP), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) and surgical duration and some others (anaesthetic and neuromuscular blockade depth) contribute by reducing IOP during procedures requiring both pneumoperitoneum and steep Trendelenburg position (25–45° head-down tilt). Despite transient visual field loss after surgery, no signs of ischemia or changes to the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) have been shown after surgery. Over the years, several studies have been conducted to control and prevent IOPs intraoperative increase. Multiple strategies have been proposed by different authors over the years to reduce IOP during laparoscopic procedures, especially those involving steep Trendelenburg positions such as robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP), and abdominal and pelvic procedures. These strategies included both positional and pharmacological strategies.
