“…The design of V-loc TM with an end-tail loop gives the surgeon to perform a knotless renorrhaphy, with only one Hem-o-lock TM placed at the end of the suture, reducing the cost of the surgery when comparing to multiple Hem-olock TM placing technique throughout the suture, Hem-olock TM clips representing an effective fixation system according to Grigore et al [12].…”

Combining technological development in the laparoscopic field alongside the increase of surgeon�s experience in partial nephrectomy, have extended the indications of laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery to more complicated cases, increasing the role of suture materials in obtaining a good collecting system closure and hemostasis, with short warm ischemia time and low postoperative complications rate. Suturing materials are continuously developed combining new and unique designs with novel synthetic materials in order to fulfill surgeon�s exigence.

“…Polymers selected to be used as a drug carrier should share following features: be biocompatible; do not interact with the drug; provide a platform for appropriate drug-eluting kinetics; behave biologically inert after the drug has been completely eluted, and be mechanically stable at longterm in the dynamics of coronary circulation milieu. Various permanent (biostable) and biodegradable polymers have been used on DES platforms with various results which are still in testing in clinical trials [7][8][9][10][11], (table 1).…”

Percutaneous coronary revascularization (PCR) with polymer-coated drug-eluting stents (DES) or bare-metal stents (BMS) is considered the standard therapy in advanced ischemic heart disease (IHD). Despite revascularisation, many of these patients subsequently develop heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We analysed 51 patients with IHD, treated by PCR and insertion of DES and/or BMS who later developed HFrEF. Patients with DES where more likely women, of younger age and a higher incidence of diabetes mellitus compared to patients with BMS who were generally men, of older age and had more frequently acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) as indication for PCR. Although patients with DES had more severe IHD, their EF was higher, possibly due to the benefits offered by the DES.

In this study, we investigated the outcomes of laparoscopic approaches for adrenal tumor resection in 67 patients from a single center with a median age of 51 (range 40–79). Predominantly comprising women, the majority of patients were overweight or obese. Adrenal tumors larger than 6 cm were mostly treated using the laparoscopic transperitoneal method (p < 0.001). Our results revealed that patients subjected to the retroperitoneal approach exhibited quicker recovery, as evidenced by faster resumption of oral intake and ambulation, along with reduced intraoperative blood loss and shorter hospitalization (p-value < 0.05). In contrast, patients subjected to the transperitoneal approach experienced minimal complications, though not statistically significant, despite the technique’s intricacy and slower recovery. These findings emphasize the significance of tailoring the surgical approach to individual patient characteristics, with particular emphasis on the tumor size. The choice between the retroperitoneal and transperitoneal methods should be informed by patient-specific attributes to optimize surgical outcomes. This study underscores the need for a comprehensive evaluation of factors such as tumor characteristics and postoperative recovery when determining the most suitable laparoscopic approach for adrenal tumor resection. Ultimately, the pursuit of individualized treatment strategies will contribute to improved patient outcomes in adrenal tumor surgery.
