Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The integration of AI and natural language processing technologies, such as ChatGPT, into surgical practice has shown promising potential in enhancing various aspects of abdominopelvic surgical procedures. This systematic review aims to comprehensively evaluate the current state of research on the applications and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and ChatGPT in abdominopelvic surgery summarizing existing literature towards providing a comprehensive overview of the diverse applications, effectiveness, challenges, and future directions of these innovative technologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search of major electronic databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, was conducted from October to November 2023, to identify relevant studies. Inclusion criteria encompassed studies that investigated the utilization of AI and ChatGPT in abdominopelvic surgical settings, including, but not limited to preoperative planning, intraoperative decision-making, postoperative care, and patient communication. RESULTS Fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. The majority of the studies were analysing ChatGPT's data output and decision making while two studies reported patient and general surgery resident perception of the tool applied to clinical practice. Most studies reported a high accuracy of ChatGPT in data output and decision-making process, however with an unforgettable number of errors. CONCLUSION This systematic review contributes to the current understanding of the role of AI and ChatGPT in abdominopelvic surgery, providing insight into their applications and impact on clinical practice. The synthesis of available evidence will inform future research directions, clinical guidelines, and development of these technologies to optimize their potential benefits in enhancing surgical care within the abdominopelvic domain.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Visceral artery aneurysms (VAA), including gastroduodenal artery aneurysms (GAA), are rare pathologies that can be challenging to diagnose due to their often-asymptomatic nature. VAA are usually correlated to atherosclerosis, fibro dysplasia, or hemodynamics changes, while pseudo aneurysms are mostly correlated to infection, inflammation, traumas, or iatrogenic lesions. PRESENTATION OF CASE We report the case of an 82-years-old female presenting with abdominal pain and hematemesis. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy retrieved a large duodenal mass and subsequent CT scans identified a large GAA with contrast extravasation. Endovascular procedure included selective arteriography, microcatheterization, and embolization. DISCUSSION VAA are mostly located in the splenic and hepatic artery. Symptoms of VAA are related to pressure on neighboring organs. VAA rupture is associated with a high mortality risk (over 76 %) and presents with symptoms like acute abdominal pain, hematemesis, and hemodynamic shock. Diagnosis is often made through CT scans and angiography. Treatment options for VAAs and GAAs include both surgical and endovascular methods. Endovascular treatment is preferred, with a success rate of 89 %-98 %. CONCLUSION This case provides an example of challenging diagnosis and treatment of a large and bleeding GAA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is gaining popularity. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after minimally invasive versus open procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Following the PRISMA statement, literature research was conducted focusing on papers comparing the incidence of POPF after open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) versus minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy (MIPD). RESULTS Twenty-one papers were included in this meta-analysis, for a total of 4,448 patients. A total of 2,456 patients (55.2%) underwent OPD, while 1,992 (44.8%) underwent MIPD. Age, ASA score III patients, incidence of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and duct diameter were significantly lower in the MIPD group. No statistically significant differences were found between the OPD and MIPD regarding the incidence of major complications (15.6% vs. 17.0%, respectively, p=0.55), mortality (3.7% vs. 2.4%, p=0.81), and POPF rate (14.3% vs. 12.9%, p=0.25). CONCLUSION MIPD and OPD had comparable rates of postoperative complications, postoperative mortality, and POPF.

Abstract
Transversal hypoplasia of the upper maxilla is a frequent condition between malocclusions. The rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is an already consolidated technique for these types of defects. This case report analyzes the outcome of a novel surgical technique that we named TOPP (Partial Palatal osteotomy technique) aiming to provide scientifically proven data over the percentage of relapse and the long-term stability of this type of surgical assisted palatal expansion. A 24 year old male patient with a hyperdivergent class III, presenting the absence of 1.1 due to a teenage trauma and a transversal contraction of the upper arch was selected for the surgery. The mucoperiosteal flap was performed at a palatal level with a paramarginal arch shape (from region 1.4 to 2.4) due to preserve the nasal-incisal vascular bundle and the mucoperiosteum was detached from the floor of the nose. A horizontal osteotomy was performed at 4-5 mm above the roots apexes; a sagittal osteotomy in a posterior direction was done at the level of the midline to divide the mesiopalatine suture and separate the maxilla in two halves. The only bony attachment that remained was represented by the perpendicular lamina of the palatal bone. The TOPP technique showed that it is possible to have a better control of both the intercanine and intermolar expansion, that is more difficult in the case of a conventional SARME. Other goals were a greater view and access to the site and the reduction of the risk of damaging the palatine fibromucosa. The incision of the archform paramarginal flap improves certainly the conditions of the palatal fibromucosa in the post operative and allows the reduction of the soft tissues’ elastic return. Key words:Rapid maxillary expansion, orthognatic surgery, maxillary osteotomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, we have recorded an increase in the number of hospital admissions due to odontogenic abscesses and neck phlegmons requiring surgery. We believe that the cause may be related both to the rationalization of funding allocation procedures in public health service making access to public dental healthcare more difficult, and the financial situation of Italian families. METHODS Fifty-five patients admitted between January 2013 and November 2017 with a diagnosis of "neck abscess" and/or "neck phlegmon" and/or "neck infection" were enrolled in this longitudinal retrospective study. RESULTS The results of this study showed that the number of cases of abscesses and neck phlegmons with an odontogenic origin have quadrupled, with reference to gender was 31 males (56%) and 24 females (44%). The average age was 46 and most cases involved patients between 30 and 50. Eighteen patients (33%) were not EU citizens and had been living in Italy for over 5 years. These data indicate an increase in the incidence of odontogenic neck infections. The data gathered by ISTAT (Istituto Nazionale di Statistica), Eurostat Data Explorer, Fondazione Giuseppe Di Vittorio and Tecnè revealed that these outcomes are directly related to the financial difficulties Italian families are experiencing. The exclusion of essential dental assistance from public healthcare forced Italians to consult expensive private facilities that not everyone can afford. CONCLUSIONS Connections were found between odontogenic neck infection complications and the financial difficulties Italian families are suffering from; Italians are reducing their budget for dental healthcare becoming exposed to serious neck pathologies.

Abstract
A seroepidemiologic survey was conducted to determine the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), HIV-2, human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I), and Treponema pallidum infection among southern Somalis. Sera were collected from 1,269 study subjects in the urban area of the capital city, Mogadishu, and in the rural towns of Merka, Qoryoley, and Kismayo. The subjects included 57 prostitutes, 79 sexually transmitted disease (STD) patients, and 1,133 others, including outpatient and hospitalized patients with leprosy, tuberculosis, other infectious diseases, individuals from rehabilitation camps and secondary schools, and Ethiopian immigrants. Results indicated that none of the sera were positive for HIV-1 and HIV-2 by Western blot, but one was positive for HTLV-I. The prostitutes had a significantly higher prevalence of treponemal antibody (50.8%; P less than 0.0001) than either the STD patients (12.6%) or the other subjects (5.2%). Epidemiologic data indicated that 94% of the males and females were circumcised and only 2.6% of the males used condoms. Overall, the results of this study suggested a very low prevalence of HIV-1, HIV-2, and HTLV-I infections, especially among prostitutes and STD patients, who were considered at greatest risk of contracting these retroviral infections.
