- Abstract
In a review of 109 cases reported in the literature, including our own experience with two successful right laparoscopic adrenalectomies performed in a 3-year old girl for androgen-secreting adenoma and in a 9-year-old male for pheochromocytoma, we analysed the indications, surgical techniques and results of video-assisted (laparoscopic or retroperitoneoscopic) adrenalectomy in children. The indications are no different from those for traditional surgery. It seems that there are no age or tumour size limits for a well-trained surgical team. The best endoscopic approach needs to be more clearly defined. Experience shows that laparoscopy is undoubtly preferred for right adrenalectomy (95.2% of cases), while left adrenalectomy has been performed by retroperitoneoscopy in 30% of cases. Considering the conversion rate of laparoscopy vs retroperitoneoscopy (12.5% vs 28.5%), right laparoscopic vs right retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (4.7% vs 100%) and left laparoscopic vs left retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (5% vs 16.6%) and on the basis of our experience in adults, we recommend laparoscopic adrenalectomy via a transperitoneal route in 45-degree flank decubitus for both right and left adrenal lesions. However, we think that the best surgical result can be achieved if the paediatric and adult surgeon collaborate with their different experience and expertise. As a technical point, we would like to stress that because of the child's small peritoneal cavity, trocar placement must be lower than in adults. Lastly, we suggest the use of new technological devices such as the Ultracision Harmonic Scalpel, which was a critical factor in our two successful right laparoscopic adrenalectomies.

- Abstract
Background: At the present time, the precise indications for laparoscopic surgery of adrenal incidentaloma (AI) have yet to be completely clarified. The most controversial issue is the role of laparoscopy in the treatment of potentially malignant and large adrenal masses. Trying to address these questions, we retrospectively examined a group of patients with AIs., Materials and Methods: Forty-two patients with AIs who were laparoscopically treated since 1995 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups: the 27 patients of the immediate surgery (IS) group were operated on immediately, whereas the 15 subjects in the delayed surgery (DS) group needed further evaluations and/or a follow-up period before surgery. Surgical timing for both groups was decided according to a widely accepted decision-making algorithm. Many outcome parameters of laparoscopy (operative time, blood loss, conversion rate, time to liquid and solid food nutrition, drainage removal, resumption of normal bowel habits, and average hospital stay) were analyzed in the two groups. The subjects had AIs of various sizes and different histotypes., Results: Patients in the DS group had a higher risk for malignancy. The definitive pathology revealed a malignant biology in 26.6% of DS vs. 0% of IS cases. No difference in the outcome parameters of laparoscopy was observed between the two groups or among pathologically different AIs. A significant correlation was found between the operative time and the size of the AI (r=0.836, P<0.001, linear regression test)., Conclusion: Our study shows that laparoscopy is feasible and safe for AIs, regardless of the preoperative probability of malignancy. The size of the AI was the only determinant for choosing a laparotomy. Further long-term studies are necessary to confirm the laparoscopic efficacy in terms of oncologic safety.

- Abstract
Through a review of 83 cases reported in literature, including our experience of two successful right laparoscopic adrenalectomies performed in a 3-year-old girl for androgen-secreting adenoma and in a 9-year-old male for pheochromocitoma, we have anaIyzed the indications, the techniques and the results of laparoscopic or retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy in children. Nineteen pheochromocytomas, 18 neuroblastomas, 15 adenomas, 12 ganglioneuromas, 9 hyperplasias, 2 carcinomas, 1 teratoma and 1 adrenogenital syndrome have been treated with excellent results (follow-up 1 month to 4 years) with no evidence of recurrence. The age range is from 1 month to 16 years with an equal female/male ratio. The tumor size range from 10 mm to 80 mm with approximately a mean of 40 mm. Sixty-three laparoscopies of which 54 lateral and 9 anterior have been performed versus 14 posterior retroperitoneoscopies. Regarding right adrenalectomy, 29 were laparoscopic and only 2 retroperitoneoscopic. With regards to left adrenalectomy, 23 were laparoscopic and 9 retroperitoneoscopic. Looking at bilateral lesions, these tumors were approached laparoscopically in 6 cases alternating both sides and 1 retroperitoneoscopically (this case was already operated on the other side). The operative time ranged from 25 minutes in newborn to 320 minutes in bilateral cases with an average of 120 minutes. Conversion rate is higher in retroperitoneoscopy (30%) (4 cases out of 13), than laparoscopy (6%) (4 cases out of 63). Specifically, for right retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy conversion rate was 100% (2 cases out 2), for left retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy 22.2% (2 cases out 9), for right laparoscopic adrenalectomy 6.8% (2 cases out of 29) and for left laparoscopic adrenalectomy 8.6% (2 cases out of 23). Only in 1 case were blood transfusions requested. Hospital stays ranged from 35 hours to 17 days with an average of 4 days. In conclusion the indications of endoscopic adrenalectomy in children are not different from those of traditional surgery and the well-known advantages of laparoscopic adrenal surgery should be applied to pediatric patients. It seems that there is no age and tumor size limits for a well-trained surgical team. Lateral transperitoneal approach is the most utilized with the child positioned in 90-degree flank decubitus. Laparoscopy is undoubtly preferred for right adrenalectomy (93% of cases), while for left adrenalectomy retroperitoneoscopy has been used in 39% of the cases. Considering the conversion rate and on the basis of our experience with adults, we recommend laparoscopic adrenalectomy for both right and left adrenal lesions, but we think that the pediatric surgeon should feel free to choose the approach in which he/she is more skilled. However, the best surgical result will be achieved if the pediatric and adult surgeon collaborate with their different experiences. Lastly, we suggest the use of new technological devices such as Ultracision Harmonic Scalpel which was a critical factor in our two successful right adrenalectomies.

- Abstract
Aim of the Study: To retrospectively evaluate a series of patients with acute and chronic small bowel obstruction and discuss the indications of laparoscopic vs laparotomic approach and the outcome of both these techniques., Patients and Method: 85 patients with acute and chronic small bowel obstruction who underwent to either emergency or elective surgery since January 1999 up to October 2001 were enrolled. Subjects were divided into three groups: 39 treated with emergency laparotomy (group I), 13 with emergency laparoscopy (group II) and 33 with elective laparoscopy for chronic/subacute obstructions (group III)., Results: 1) the most frequent indication of the laparotomic approach was either multiple or major previous surgery as well as neoplastic diseases; 2) patients of the second group had frequently previous either minor or laparoscopic surgery; 3) the incidence of previous emergency surgery were maximum among the III group; 4) both post-operative ileus and mean hospital stay lasted less in the II than in the I group. The mean operative time and the morbidity was equal in the two groups; 5) we observed more intra-operative complications, a higher conversion rate and a longer both post-operative ileus and mean hospital stay in the II than in the III group., Conclusions: Our data support the role of laparoscopy in patients with chronic/subacute small bowel obstruction. Patients with acute obstruction may undergo laparoscopy after a careful selection, excluding subjects with previous either multiple or major surgery as well as neoplastic diseases. Such results need future confirmations from prospective randomized studies.

- Abstract
Background: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has proved to be the technique of choice for managing benign pathologies of the adrenals and isolated adrenal metastases, especially those arising from lung tumor, but the procedure should not be performed for primitive adrenal carcinoma. The Authors wanted to test the advantages of the Harmonic Scalpel in laparoscopic adrenalectomy., Methods: From April 1995 to April 2001, the authors investigated their series of laparoscopic adrenalectomies performed at the Careggi General Hospital, Division of General and Vascular Surgery, Florence, Italy. This study enrolled 91 patients with various adrenal pathologies. The transperitoneal approach was used, with the patient in a lateral position, as suggested by Gagner. Special care was taken to improve the surgical approach to the adrenals by the use of new technological devices such as the Harmonic Scalpel. The operative time required by the surgical procedure was computed by dividing the study into three periods: 1995-1997, 1998-1999, 2000-2001. The first period was necessary to complete the learning curve. In the second period, a steady state in surgical time was reached. During the third period, the Harmonic Scalpel was introduced. The differences between the three periods were tested using a nonparametric analysis (Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis test) as appropriate. A two-tailed p value of 0.05 or less was considered statistically significant. The authors investigated the cost of the operation performed in each of the two groups using, respectively, the conventional laparoscopic device (1998-1999) and the Harmonic Scalpel (2000-2001). The following expenses were considered: Harmonic Scalpel impulse generator and disposable shears, operating room cost per hour, and endoclip applier., Results: The 91 laparoscopic adrenalectomies were performed with these indications: 31 incidentalomas (26 adenomas and 5 cysts), 25 cases of Conn's disease, 18 cases of Cushing's disease, 9 pheochromocytomas, 2 myelolipomas, 5 metastases (from lung, kidney, and breast) and 1 primitive carcinoma diagnosed preoperatively. Considering the whole series (1995-2001), there was a significant trend of reduction in operative time (p = 0.0001). Moreover looking at the first period (1995-1997), in which the learning curve was completed, the mean surgical time was 148 min, as compared with 125 mm. For the second period (1998-1999) (p = 0.0002). This represents a significant reduction in operative time. The authors noted a further reduction in the operative time when surgery was performed with the Harmonic Scalpel (2000-2001) (92 min; p = 0.001). The reduction in operative time attributable to the Harmonic Scalpel was confirmed also by a multivariate analysis of covariance general linear models procedure (GLM), which accounts for several confounders: age, gender, site and size of tumors, and histology (p = 0.0001). The rate was 3.3% for morbidity, 1.1% for mortality, and 2.2% for conversion. There was no difference in complications between patients treated with conventional devices and those treated with the Harmonic Scalpel., Conclusions: The laparoscopic approach has proved to be an extremely reliable procedure for benign pathologies and isolated metastases. There may yet be doubts about its use for the treatment of adrenal carcinomas preoperatively diagnosed. When surgery is performed using Harmonic Scalpel, operative time is significantly reduced and surgery is easier and less expensive. Infact use of the Harmonic Scalpel allowed the cost per operation to be reduced $70. Moreover, if surgery is performed using the nondisposable clip applier, the expenses are reduced $105.

- Abstract
Splenic cysts are rare in pediatric surgery. Congenital epidermoid cysts are exceptional representing only 2.5% of all splenic cysts in childhood. Nowadays, considering the short- and long-term complications of splenectomy in children, the management of epidermoid cyst consists of partial splenectomy or decapsulation of the cystic wall. To our knowledge, the case reported in this article describes the first successful laparoscopic decapsulation of an epidermoid splenic cyst in an 10-year-old child using the UltraCision LaparoSonic Coagulating Shears (LCS). Follow-up at six months confirms no recurrence. Laparoscopic splenic decapsulation provides minimal access and small surgical trauma for treating the cyst while preserving splenic function. The use of UltraCision LCS makes the laparoscopy safely, expeditiously, with minimal blood loss and short hospital stay.

- Abstract
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has proved to be the technique of choice for the treatment of benign pathologies of the adrenals and also for the treatment of isolated adrenal metastases, especially arising from lung tumor, but it shouldn't be performed for primitive adrenal carcinoma. The harmonic scalpel is very useful for laparoscopic adrenalectomy showing a significant reduction in operative time. The Authors retrospectively investigated 78 laparoscopic adrenalectomies performed from April 1995 to April 2000 using a transperitoneal approach with the patient on a lateral position as suggested by Gagner. Special care was taken to improve the surgical approach to the adrenals also by means of new technological devices as the Harmonic scalpel. The 78 laparoscopic adrenalectomies were performed in 70 cases for benign neoplasms: incidentalomas 24, Cushing's disease 16, Conn's disease 20, pheochromocytomas 9, myelolipoma 1. In the remaining 8 patients laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed in 7 cases for isolated adrenal masses (5 metastases, 2 adenomas) in neoplastic patients, and in 1 patient for a preoperatively diagnosed adrenal carcinoma. Patients operated for functioning neoplasms had all remission or improvement of symptoms and humoral parameters; patients operated for isolated adrenal metastases showed this survival: 3 patients 3 years asymptomatic and disease free, 1 patient 18 months, and 3 patients are still alive and healthy after 6-12-15 months. A fast onset of local recurrence was seen in a patient operated for a preoperatively diagnosed adrenal carcinoma. We analyzed the operating time dividing the patients in three groups: a) 14 patients operated in the first semester of 1998 when we completed the training curve (average operative time 120.7 minutes); b) 14 patients operated from 1998-1999 (average operative time 118 minutes); c) the last 14 patients (operated from December 1999 to April 2000) where surgery was performed using the Harmonic scalpel (HS) (average operative time 94 minutes). The analysis of the average operative time comparing groups B and C using T-Student Test showed a significant reduction (p = 0.004). The morbility rate was 2.6%, mortality 1.3%, and a conversion rate of 2.6%. Laparoscopic approach results to be an extremely reliable procedure also for the treatment of incidentalomas up to 4-5 cm in which the incidence of adrenal carcinoma is about 13%. Doubts may yet result for the treatment of adrenal carcinomas preoperatively diagnosed. When laparoscopic adrenalectomy in performed using HS the operative time is significantly reduced and surgery is easier.

- Abstract
Background: The incidence of complications resulting from fine-needle biopsy of adrenal masses in patients already treated by radical procedures for primitive neoplasms of the lungs and kidneys substantiates our opinion concerning laparoscopy as both a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure., Methods: We performed 70 laparoscopic adrenalectomies from April 1995 to December 1999. In five patients, the adrenal mass appeared at follow-up evaluation in patients submitted to surgery for a spinocellular lung cancer. One patient underwent surgery for renal adenocarcinoma. In two patients, the adrenal mass was present already at the time primitive lung tumor was diagnosed, so adrenalectomy was performed at the first lung surgery in one patient and 2 weeks before lung surgery in the other patient. All the patients were placed in a lateral position for a transperitoneal approach. Right adrenal masses were present in seven patients, whereas one patient had an adrenal mass in a left location., Results: No laparotomy was required. The average surgical time was 160 min. (range, 115-120 min). No morbility or mortality occurred, and the average hospital stay was 4 days (range, 3-11 days). All the patients had a complete removal of their masses, which averaged 4.5 cm (range, 2.5-6 cm) in size. Histology confirmed the metastatic origin of the mass in five of seven patients with primary lung cancer, and in one patient with previous kidney cancer. At this writing, three patients were disease free and still alive respectively at 3, 5, and 18 months. Three patients died of brain metastases respectively at 16, 36, and 36 months. An adenoma was proved in the other two cases., Conclusions: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy allows us to propose a much more aggressive approach to adrenal masses demonstrated at follow-up evaluation or in patients with primary lung or kidney cancer and no masses at other locations. Nevertheless a much larger study is required for definitive conclusions on a survival rate. We believe that a mini-invasive procedure such as laparoscopy may allow us to replace a rational surgical approach with a more certain pathologic diagnosis.

- Abstract
Portal thrombosis is a rare complication of splenectomy. We performed 12 laparoscopic splenectomies and observed this complication only in one patient with idiopathic thrombocytopenia (ITP). The right branch of the portal vein presented a partial thrombosis, while the left branch was completely obstructed by thrombi. Abdominal ultrasonography and an ultrasound doppler exam allowed us to diagnose this event and a retrograde angiography performed afterward confirmed our diagnosis. A 48-h intravenous heparin treatment was promptly begun, followed by anticoagulant drugs (dicumarol). The patient was dismissed 5 days afterward, presenting a steady-state ultrasound doppler pattern and a complete normalization of liver parameters. An ultrasound doppler exam performed 1 month after anticoagulant therapy showed a complete resolution of portal thrombosis. We believe that early diagnosis of this rare complication, prompt beginning of anticoagulant therapy, and care in surgical procedures may reduce patient life-threatening risks and assure complete remission.

Background While laparoscopic approach for right hemicolectomy (LRH) is considered appropriate for the surgical treatment of both malignant and benign diseases of right colon, there is still debate about how to perform the ileo-colic anastomosis. The ColonDxItalianGroup (CoDIG) was designed as a cohort, observational, prospective, multi-center national study with the aims of evaluating the surgeons’ attitude regarding the intracorporeal (ICA) or extra-corporeal (ECA) anastomotic technique and the related surgical outcomes. Methods One hundred and twenty-five Surgical Units experienced in colorectal and advanced laparoscopic surgery were invited and 85 of them joined the study. Each center was asked not to change its surgical habits. Data about demographic characteristics, surgical technique and postoperative outcomes were collected through the official SICE website database. One thousand two hundred and twenty-five patients were enrolled between March 2018 and September 2018. Results ICA was performed in 70.4% of cases, ECA in 29.6%. Isoperistaltic anastomosis was completed in 85.6%, stapled in 87.9%. Hand-sewn enterotomy closure was adopted in 86%. Postoperative complications were reported in 35.4% for ICA and 50.7% for ECA; no significant difference was found according to patients’ characteristics and technologies used. Median hospital stay was significantly shorter for ICA (7.3 vs. 9 POD). Postoperative pain in patients not prescribed opioids was significantly lower in ICA group. Conclusions In our survey, a side-to-side isoperistaltic stapled ICA with hand-sewn enterotomy closure is the most frequently adopted technique to perform ileo-colic anastomosis after any indications for elective LRH. According to literature, our study confirmed better short-term outcomes for ICA, with reduction of hospital stay and postoperative pain. Trial registration Clinical trial (Identifier: NCT03934151).
