Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyse operating time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative bleeding rate and pain when using the relatively new BiZact™ tonsillectomy device compared to the commonly used cold steel dissection technique with bipolar cautery in adults. DESIGN Retrospective case control study. Parameters analysed for significant association with technique were operating time, intraoperative blood loss, wound pain on postoperative days 1-4 and rate of post-tonsillectomy bleeding (PTB). SETTING Monocentric study at a department of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery at a tertiary centre in Germany. PARTICIPANTS A total of 183 patients who underwent a bilateral tonsillectomy with either the BiZact™ tonsillectomy device or the cold dissection technique with bipolar cautery for haemostasis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Operating time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative pain on the first to fourth postoperative day (numeric rating scale: 0-10) (PTB, primary bleeding ≤24 h, secondary bleeding >24 h postoperative; Stammberger scale). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION The BiZact™ tonsillectomy device leads to a significant shorter operating time with less intraoperative blood loss compared to cold steel dissection with bipolar haemostasis. No benefits with regards to PTB or postoperative pain could be observed. The use of the BiZact™ device provides major benefits in clinical routine and stands up to conventional tonsillectomy techniques.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare clinical outcomes and complication rates of full arthroscopic latissimus dorsi tendon transfer (LDTT) vs. arthroscopically assisted LDTT, for the treatment of irreparable posterosuperior massive rotator cuff tears (mRCTs) in shoulders that had failed rotator cuff repair (RCR). METHODS We evaluated a continuous series of 191 patients who underwent LDTT over 4 consecutive years. A total of 107 patients did not have previous shoulder surgery, leaving 84 patients who had prior surgical procedures. All procedures performed over the first 2 years were arthroscopically assisted (n = 48), whereas all procedures performed over the last 2 years were full arthroscopic (n = 36). We noted all complications, as well as clinical scores and range of motion at ≥24 months. To enable direct comparison between the 2 techniques, propensity score matching was used to obtain 2 groups with equivalent age, sex, and follow-up. RESULTS Compared with the 48 patients who underwent arthroscopically assisted LDTT, the 36 patients who underwent full arthroscopic LDTT had comparable complications (13% vs. 11%) and conversions to RSA (8.3% vs. 5.6%). Propensity score matching resulted in 2 groups, each comprising 31 patients, which had similar outcomes in terms of clinical scores (except mobility component of Constant score, which was better following fully arthroscopic LDTT; P = .037) and range of motion at a minimum follow-up of 2 years. CONCLUSION At a minimum follow-up of 24 months, for the treatment of irreparable posterosuperior mRCTs in shoulders that had surgical antecedents, full arthroscopic LDTT had significantly better mobility component of the Constant score than arthroscopically assisted LDTT, although there were no significant differences in the other clinical or functional outcomes. Arthroscopically assisted LDTT and full arthroscopic LDTT had comparable rates of complications (8.3% vs. 13%) and conversion to RSA (5.6% vs. 8.3%).

Abstract
Background Our center proposes a new technique that effectively provides space to broaden the surgical field of view and overcomes the limitations of endoscopy-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (E-NSM) by changing the dissection sequence and combining it with air inflation. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of the new technique designated "reverse-sequence endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-E-NSM) with subpectoral breast reconstruction (SBR)" and the conventional E-NSM (C-E-NSM) with SBR. Method All patients undergoing E-NSM with SBR at our breast center between April 2017 and December 2022 were included in this study. The cohort was divided into the C-E-NSM group and the R-E-NSM group. The operation time, anesthesia time, medical cost, complications, cosmetic outcomes, and oncological safety were compared. Results Twenty-six and seventy-nine consecutive patients were included in the C-E-NSM and R-E-NSM groups, with average ages of 36.9 ± 7.0 years and 39.7 ± 8.4 years (P=0.128). Patients in the R-E-NSM group had significantly shorter operation time (204.6 ± 59.2 vs. 318.9 ± 75.5 minutes, p<0.001) and anesthesia time (279.4 ± 83.9 vs. 408.9 ± 87.4 minutes, p<0.001) and decreased medical costs [5063.4 (4439.6-6532.3) vs. 6404.2 (5152.5-7981.5), USD, p=0.001] and increase SCAR-Q scores (77.2 ± 17.1 vs. 68.8 ± 8.7, P=0.002) compared to the C-E-NSM group. Although trends increased in both the excellent rate of Ueda scores (53.8% vs. 42.3%, P = 0.144), excellent rate of Harris scores (44.0% vs. 63.1%, P=0.102), and decreased surgical complications (7.6% vs. 19.2%, P = 0.135) were observed in the R-E-NSM group, the differences were not significant. There were no significant differences in oncological outcomes between the two groups. Conclusion R-E-NSM improves cosmetic outcomes and efficiency of C-E-NSM, reduces medical costs, and has a trend of lower surgical complications while maintaining the safety of oncology. It is a safe and feasible option for oncological procedures that deserves to be promoted and widely adopted in practice.

Abstract
Background: Robotic adrenalectomy has become a surgical treatment option for benign and selected malignant adrenal diseases. We aimed to evaluate the eligibility of two-port robotic posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (PRA) as an alternative to the conventional three-port technique by comparing their surgical outcomes. Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study compared the clinicopathological factors and surgical outcomes among 197 patients who underwent two-port or three-port robotic adrenalectomy between 2016 and 2020 in a single tertiary center. For further evaluation, propensity score matching was performed to reduce the selection bias in population characteristics. Results: Patients were categorized by the number of ports (two-port group, 87; and three-port group, 110). The two-port group compared with the three-port group was significantly older (P = .006) and had a smaller mean tumor size (P = .003) and shorter mean operation time (P = .001). Upon comparing clinicopathologic characteristics according to adrenal disorders, for pheochromocytoma, the three-port group had a larger tumor size and a longer operation time. For Cushing's syndrome, the operation time was short and numeric rating scale pain score was significantly low in the two-port group. After propensity score matching, the two-port group had a short operation time and a significantly low postoperative pain score (P < .05). Predictive factors associated with prolonged operation time included male gender, an increased number of ports, and large tumor size. Conclusions: The two-port technique resulted in a shorter operation time and lower pain score compared with the three-port technique. The two-port technique may be a safe alternative to the conventional three-port technique for robotic PRA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to compare the treatment cost, operation time, clinical effect, and complications between punctures done under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) planning based on picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) and punctures done under immediate X-ray fluoroscopy guidance in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation by transforaminal lumbar epidural injection. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this prospective study conducted between October 2016 and June 2021, 128 patients were randomly divided into Groups A and B by the random number table method. In Group A (n=66; 36 males, 30 females; mean age: 64.5±2.4 years, range, 50 to 72 years), puncture was performed by planning with PACS-based MRI; in Group B (n=62; 34 males, 28 females; mean age: 65.3±2.6 years; range, 48 to 73 years), puncture was performed under immediate X-ray guidance. The cost of treatment, duration of procedure, clinical outcome, and complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The difference in treatment cost in Groups A and B was statistically significant (p<0.001), with 755.67±29.45 yuan and 1.158.08±43.92 yuan, respectively. The mean treatment time was statistically significant (p<0.001) between the groups, with 21.16±1.91 min in Group A and 37.26±2 min in Group B. However, there was no significant difference between Group A and Group B in terms of improvement in pain scores and Oswestry disability index (both p>0.05). There was also no significant difference between Group A and Group B in terms of complication rates (both p>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared to immediate X-ray guided puncture, the puncture method using PACS for MRI planning shortened the transforaminal lumbar epidural injection procedure time and reduced the treatment costs without exposing the physician or patient to additional radiation, while there was no significant difference in the short-term clinical outcome or complication rate.

Abstract
Objectives To compare the operative and postoperative outcomes of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). Materials and Methods In this retrospective comparative study, we reviewed all hysterectomies performed in the Al-Karak Governmental Hospital in Al-Karak, Jordan, from September 2018 to July 2022. We enrolled 129 patients who underwent hysterectomy. The patients were divided into the TLH (n = 39) and TAH (n = 90) groups. Patient data were accessed through hospital records and analyzed using SPSS 25.0. Results The most common indication for TLH was uterine fibroid, and that for TAH was abnormal uterine bleeding, although the specimen weights were comparable. There was no significant between-group difference in the patient's demographics. Although the TLH group had longer operative time, the hospital stay was shorter and there were no reported cases of wound infection. The estimated blood loss was significantly lower in the TLH group than in the TAH group, but there was no difference between the two groups in terms of blood transfusion requirement and postoperative hemoglobin level. Conclusion TLH and TAH had comparable overall outcomes in the Al-Karak Governmental Hospital. However, TLH was superior to TAH in terms of blood loss, and patients with TLH recovered faster without postoperative wound infection.

Abstract
Background: Recently a novel omnidirectional (OD) ureteral access sheath (UAS) has been developed. By retrospectively reviewing and comparing the flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy (FURL) cases in our institution with either a conventional Cook UAS or an OD UAS in the past year, we shared our experience of the safety, efficacy, and relevant issues on the usage of OD UAS. Materials and Methods: The medical history and surgery details of 199 patients with kidney stones or ureterojunctional stones who underwent FURL in Xinhua Hospital, including 61 Cook UAS and 138 OD UAS, were reviewed and compared. The maximal deflection angle was measured by steering four different types of ureteroscopes to bend the OD UAS in different states. Result: The deflection angle of OD UAS was ∼110° to 130° free load, and 90° to 130° when loaded with different instruments. The stone burden and position were similar in two groups. Given a similar prestent ratio and operation time, the OD UAS group achieved a higher single-session stone-free rate (SFR) (63.9% vs 94.2%, p < 0.0001) at 1-month follow-up evaluated by a CT scan. Conclusion: OD UAS is a novel device with high safety and efficacy. The unique flexible design allows it to bend with the ureteroscope and enter renal calices and be set close to the stone. Combined with the suction port, OD UAS contributes greatly to dealing with large-burden kidney stones, shortens operation time, and improves single-session SFR.

Abstract
Background This study aims to describe a novel laparoscopic aspirator bracket (LAB) and its use in laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) by a simple enucleation (SE) technique. Methods A total of 123 renal tumor cases who underwent laparoscopic NSS via LAB or laparoscopic aspirator between July 2017 and April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. General characteristics, perioperative data and postoperative follow-up data of patients were compared. Results The application of LAB in laparoscopic renal tumor SE surgery shortened the operation time (88.58 ± 38.25 vs. 102.25 ± 35.84 min, p < 0.05) and improved the zero ischemia rate (18.75% vs. 3.39%, p < 0.05), shortened warm ischemia time (16.17 ± 5.16 vs. 19.39 ± 5.62 min, p < 0.05) and decreased intraoperative blood loss (166.19 ± 111.60 vs. 209.15 ± 127.10 ml, p < 0.05). In addition, the serum creatinine and eGFR values in the LAB group also showed faster and better renal function recovery. Conclusion The new LAB could aspirate and expose the operative field with a single instrument. In operations that need to expose and aspirate simultaneously, such as in renal tumor simple enucleation, it could shorten operation time, reduce intraoperative blood loss and improve the postoperative renal function recovery.

Abstract
Objective Single-port laparoscopy has been proposed as an ideal surgical method for the treatment of uterine leiomyoma. It can effectively remove the lesion, reduce the loss of hemoglobin, and has superior cosmetic effects. Therefore, we searched relevant studies and conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of single-port laparoscopy on myoma resection, hemoglobin loss, and scar beauty compared to conventional laparoscopy. Methods We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, scope, Cochrane, CNKI, and other databases to find randomized controlled studies on the efficacy of single-port laparoscopy and traditional laparoscopy for meta-analysis. The main outcomes of our study were the duration of surgery, the reduction of hemoglobin, and the cosmetic effect of the postoperative scar. The effect model was selected according to heterogeneity (random effect model or fixed effect model), and the relevant sensitivity analysis and publication bias test were performed. Results We searched a total of 501 related literature articles and finally included 19 studies involving 21 researchers. Comparison of single-port laparoscopic myomectomy with traditional surgery: Operation time had no significant difference (Standardized Mean Difference [SMD]: 0.13, 95% Confidence interval (CI), -0.04 to 0.30; I²=74%; P = 0.14); The reduction of hemoglobin is lower ([SMD]: -0.04; 95% CI, -0.23 to 0.14; I²=71%; P = 0.65), and the cosmetic effect of postoperative scar is more satisfactory ([SMD]: 0.42, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.83; I²=72%, P= 0.04). There was no significant difference in conversion rate, postoperative pain, blood loss, postoperative gastrointestinal recovery time, or length of hospital stay. Conclusion Compared with traditional laparoscopy, the operation time of the treatment of uterine leiomyoma by single-port laparoscopy is not extended, the reduction of hemoglobin is less, and the cosmetic effect of the scar is better. Therefore, single-port laparoscopy is superior to traditional surgery in the treatment of uterine leiomyoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have evaluated the impact of obesity on operation time in patients with ACL reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to understand the effect of obesity on operation time in patients with arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. METHODS A total of 103 patients were included. The mean pure operation time was 45.9 ± 13.4 min. Considering that 15 min incremental increases in operation time are an independent risk factor for complications, all patients were classified into two groups according to operation time: more or less than 61 min. Demographic data were compared between both groups. Pure operation time was defined as operative time without suture time (pure operation time = suture start time - operation start time). Correlation analysis between demographic data and pure operation time was performed, and multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the predictors of pure operation time. RESULTS The pure operation time ≥61 min group (n = 34) had a 14.7 kg higher weight and 4.5 kg/m2 higher body mass index (BMI) than those with pure operation time < 61 min (n = 69). Weight (r = 0.635, p < 0.001) and BMI (r = 0.584, p < 0.001) were positively correlated with operation time. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that weight (β = 0.635, p < 0.001) was the only predictor of operation time. A weight of 74.25 kg was a cut-off value for a pure operation time of >61 min. CONCLUSIONS The weight and BMI of the group with pure operation time of ≥61 min were 14.7 kg and 4.5 kg/m2 higher, respectively. The weight of patients with ACL tears was a factor affecting delay in the operation time. Patients weighing over 74.25 kg were more likely to delay ACL reconstruction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The precision of overall alignment and knee morphotype after robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty has been fully confirmed. This study aims to conduct a clinical evaluation of the first China-made semi-active total knee arthroplasty assisting robot. METHODS After a 1 : 2 propensity score matching, that is, a matched cohort study, patients were matched to the robot group (52 cases) and the conventional group (104 cases). The robot group received osteotomy according to preoperative planning, while the conventional group adopted preoperative planning based on the full-length radiograph and received conventional osteotomy. Perioperative clinical indicators, such as operation time, tourniquet time, hospitalization days, intraoperative bleeding, and hemoglobin level of the two groups were recorded; radiological indicators of postoperative prosthesis position, including hip-knee-ankle angle, frontal femoral component angle, frontal tibial component angle, lateral femoral component angle, and lateral tibial component angle were also recorded; deviations and outliers of the radiological indicators were calculated. RESULTS Compared with the conventional group, the operation time and tourniquet time of the robot group were longer, and the postoperative hemoglobin level decreased less, the differences were statistically significant; the lateral tibial component angle of the conventional group was 80.9°±3.6°, which was smaller than 86.7 °±2.3° of the robot group, the difference was statistically significant ( P <0.001); except for lateral femoral component angle, the absolute deviations of the radiological indicators in the robot group were significantly smaller than that in the conventional group ( P ≤0.001); the outliers of the radiological indicators in the robot group were significantly smaller than that in the conventional group with a statistical difference ( P <0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with the conventional group, the operation time of the robot group was relatively longer, but the perioperation blood loss was less. The robot group could better control the posterior inclination of the tibial prosthesis, and the absolute deviations and outliers of the prosthesis position were relatively smaller. There was no difference in short-term clinical score between the two groups.

Abstract
Background Latissimus dorsi tendon transfer (LDTT) is increasingly performed with arthroscopic assistance, requiring an open axillary incision, which could increase risks of infection, hematoma, and lymphoedema. Technological advancements now enable LDTT to be fully arthroscopic, but its benefits and safety have not yet been confirmed. Purpose To compare the clinical outcomes and complication rates of arthroscopic-assisted versus full-arthroscopic LDTT for irreparable posterosuperior massive rotator cuff tears in shoulders with no surgical antecedents. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods The study included 90 patients who had undergone LDTT over 4 consecutive years by the same surgeon and did not have prior surgery. During the first 2 study years, all procedures were arthroscopically assisted (n = 52), while during the last 2 years, all procedures were fully arthroscopic (n = 38). Procedure duration and all complications were recorded, as well as clinical scores and range of motion at minimum 24-month follow-up. To enable direct comparison between the techniques, propensity score matching was used to obtain 2 groups with equivalent age, sex, and follow-up. Results From the initial cohort of 52 patients who underwent arthroscopic-assisted LDTT, 8 had complications (15.4%), of which 3 (5.7%) required conversion to reverse shoulder arthroplasty and 2 (3.8%) required drainage or lavage. From the initial cohort of 38 patients who had full-arthroscopic LDTT, 5 had complications (13.2%), of which 2 (5.2%) required conversion to reverse shoulder arthroplasty but no patients (0%) required other procedures. Propensity score matching resulted in 2 groups, each comprising 31 patients, with similar outcomes in terms of clinical scores and range of motion. The procedure time was about 18 minutes shorter for full-arthroscopic LDTT, which had different complications (2 axillary nerve pareses) as compared with arthroscopic-assisted LDTT (1 hematoma and 2 infections). Conclusion Equivalent outcomes at minimum 24-month follow-up were found for arthroscopic-assisted and full-arthroscopic LDTT in terms of complications rates (15.4% and 13.2%, respectively), conversion to reverse shoulder arthroplasty (5.7% and 5.2%), clinical scores, and range of motion.

Abstract
Membrane biofilm reactors (MBfRs) have attracted more and more attention in the field of wastewater treatment due to their advantages of high mass transfer efficiency and low-carbon emissions. There are many factors affecting their nitrogen removal abilities, such as operation time, electron donor types, and operation modes. The operation time is directly related to the growth status of microorganisms, so it is very important to understand the effect of different operation times on microbial composition and community succession. In this study, two parallel H2-based MBfRs were operated, and differences in microbial composition, community succession, and NO3--N removal efficiency were investigated on the 30th day and the 60th day of operation. The nitrogen removal efficiency of MBfRs with an operation time of 60 days was higher than that of MBfRs with an operation time of 30 days. Proteobacteria was the dominant phylum in both MBfRs; however, the composition of the microbial community was quite different. At the class level, the community composition of Proteobacteria was similar between the two MBfRs. Alphaproteobacteria was the dominant class in MBfR, and Betaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria were also in high proportion. Combined with the analysis of microbial relative abundance and concentration, the similarity of microbial distribution in the MBfRs was very low on day 30 and day 60, and the phylogenetic relationships of the top 50 dominant universal bacteria and Proteobacteria were different. Although the microbial concentration decreased with the extension of the operation time, the microbial abundance and diversity of specific functional microorganisms increased further. Therefore, the operation time had a significant effect on microbial composition and community succession.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a new surgical procedure for non-small cell lung cancer, single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has lately gained popularity; nevertheless, it is unknown if single-port VATS offers any advantages over multi-portal. The study aims to assess the different impacts of using single-port VATS versus 2-port or multi-port VATS such as operation and drainage time, blood loss volume, number of resected lymph nodes, and hospital stay in lung cancer patients. METHODS Inclusion criteria included studies from different languages that compare single-port against 2 or multi-port VATS. The outcomes of these studies were analyzed using a random-effect model and it was used to calculate the mean difference with 95 percent confidence intervals to quantify the impact of different surgical techniques on clinical parameters. RESULTS Single or Uni-portal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery results in significantly lower drainage time after surgery compared with 2-port (P = .03) and multi-port (P < .001) VATS. In contrast to the resection of lymph nodes, there was no significant difference between uni-port and 2-port (P = .49) or multiport (P = .29) VATS. While operation time, blood loss, complications, and hospital stay were significantly lower in uni-port compared with multi-port VATS (P = .04, P = .002, P < .001, respectively), but not with 2-port VATS (P = .44, 0.06, P = .13). There were no significant differences between uni-port and multi-port VATS regarding conversion rate, mortality, and staging. CONCLUSION Single or Uni-portal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery has high efficacy and lower side effects compared with multi-port regarding the perioperative outcomes. Two-port VATS has similar results with uni-port in several parameters.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of delayed femoral vein ligation on the clinical outcomes of hip disarticulation. We retrospectively reviewed 20 patients with extremity tumors (10 bone tumors and 10 soft tissue sarcomas [STS]) who underwent hip disarticulation. Patients treated for hip disarticulation with synchronous femoral vein ligation (n = 10, regular surgery group) and hip disarticulation with delayed femoral vein ligation (n = 10, delayed ligation group), respectively, were enrolled in this study. The operative time and blood loss were used to evaluate the clinical outcomes. The delayed ligation group had significantly lower operative times than the regular surgery group (P < 0.05). Total, hidden, and intraoperative blood loss were all significantly lower in the delayed ligation group than in the regular surgery group (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in postoperative blood loss. In conclusion, delayed femoral vein ligation could significantly reduce the operative time, hidden blood loss, and intraoperative blood loss in patients undergoing hip disarticulation.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of hysteroscopy and suture on uterine scar diverticulum (CSD) after caesarean section and its influence on blood loss, operation time and antibiotic time. Eighty-nine patients with CSD were divided into observation group (n = 41 cases) and control group (n = 48 cases). Control group received laparoscopic scar diverticulum resection and suture, while the observation group received hysteroscopic resection of scar diverticulum. The operation time of the observation group was longer, while the bleeding volume and antibiotic administration time were significantly lower. The surgical treatment efficiency of the observation group (97.56%) was significantly higher. After treatment, the observation group's diverticulum repair indexes (width, depth and lower uterine muscular layer thickness) were better than those of the control group (p<.05). Hysteroscopic resection of scar diverticulum in CSD reduces intraoperative blood loss and the risk of complications, shortens time of antibiotic administration, and promotes diverticulum repair.Impact StatementWhat is already known on this subject? Uterine scar diverticulum (CSD) after caesarean section, also called postoperative uterine incision defect (PCSD), is due to poor healing of the uterine incision after caesarean section.What do the results of this study add? Hysteroscopic resection of scar diverticulum in CSD has a significant clinical effect, which can effectively reduce intraoperative blood loss and the risk of complications, shorten the time of antibiotic administration, and promote diverticulum repair.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? Clinical effect of hysteroscopic resection of scar diverticulum in CSD is significant.

Abstract
Objectives Surgical site infections (SSI) are the most common complications after liver transplantation (LT). Although there are some risk factors known in the literature after LT, the available data is insufficient for routine use. In the present study, it was aimed to define the parameters that may be used to clearly determine the risk of SSI after LT in our clinic. Material and Methods In the present study, we evaluated 329 patients who underwent liver transplantation with regard to risk factors for surgical site infections. The relation between demographic data and SSI was evaluated using SPSS, Graphpad, and Medcalc statistical programs. Results In a total of 329 patients, SSIs were determined in 37 (11.24%). Among the 37 patients, 24 were classified as organ space (64.9%) and 13 as deep SSI (35.1%). None of these patients developed superficial incisional infection. SSI showed statistically significant relation with operation time (p= 0.008), diabetes (p= 0.004), and cirrhosis due to hepatitis B (p <0.001). Conclusion As a result, deep and organ space infections are much more observed in patients undergoing liver transplantation with hepatitis B, diabetes mellitus and prolonged surgery. This is thought to have developed because of chronic irritation and increased inflammation. Since data on hepatitis B and duration of surgery are limited in the literature, this study is considered to be a contribution to the literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical outcomes of the paratricipital approach (PT) and olecranon osteotomy (OO) for the treatment of distal humerus intra-articular fracture have been reported. However, there is no consensus regarding which approach is better in terms of functional outcomes and complications. This study aimed to compare the operation time, functional outcomes, and complications of OO and PT. METHODS The databases of MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched for studies published before June 1, 2021. We performed synthetic analysis of the operation time, functional outcomes, and incidence of complication after the conduct of OO group or PT group in patients with distal humerus intra-articular fractures. RESULTS Five studies were included representing a total of 243 patients who underwent surgery for distal humerus intra-articular fractures. A pooled analysis showed that there was a longer operation time in the OO group compared with the PT group (mean difference [MD] = 13.32, 95% CI: 3.78-22.87; P = .006). There was no significant difference between the functional outcomes of the OO and PT groups (elbow flexion: MD = 2.4, 95% CI: -0.82 to 5.79, P = .14; elbow extension: MD = 0.36, 95% CI: -2.20 to 2.92, P = .78; elbow arc of motion: MD = 0.40, 95% CI: -4.05 to 4.84, P = .86; Mayo Elbow Performance score: MD = -1.37, 95% CI: -4.73 to 1.98, P = .42). The incidence of infection was significantly higher in the OO group compared with that of the PT group (odds ratio [OR] = 3.82, 95% CI: 1.03-14.16, P = .04). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of the heterotopic ossification and ulnar neuropathy (OR = 1.85, 95% CI: 0.51-6.71, P = .35 and OR = 2.74, 95% CI: 0.60-12.48, P = .19, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Since the choice of surgical approach does not influence outcomes, surgeons can base their choice of approach on the basis of their own experience and familiarity with the procedure and the need to visualize the entire articular surface in complex intra-articular fracture patterns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the development of otoendoscopic surgery technology and the update of equipment, more and more otoendoscopic tympanoplasty are carried out. OBJECTIVES To investigate application of otoendoscopic tympanoplasty. METHODS Seventy-six patients with tympanic membrane perforation were randomly enrolled into otoendoscopic group (OP, n = 38) and microscope group (MP, n = 38). We compared two-group patients using operative time, intraoperative blood loss, healing of postoperative perforations, and degree of postoperative hearing improvement. RESULTS Average operation time was statistically significant shorter in the OP than the MP (p < .05); the intraoperative blood loss in the OP was significant less than MP (p < .05); after postoperative follow-up, the healing rate of tympanic membrane perforation was 92.11% in the OP compared to 89.47% in the MP. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the two groups (p > .05). There were no statistically significant differences between the preoperative and postoperative air and bone conduction thresholds in the two groups (p > .05). CONCLUSIONS Otoendoscopic tympanoplasty is a minimally invasive operation but with similar effects as compared to microscopic one. But the operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the OP were significantly better than those in the MP, thus it is a safe, effective and easy to be operated in clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of intentional double scroll formation of donor Descemet membrane (DM) inside a glass tube inserter (the Fogla technique) in DM endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) for controlled insertion and unfolding of grafts. METHODS Eleven consecutive patients who underwent DMEK were included in this study. We sought to specify graft characteristics in which double scroll configuration was successfully formed using the Fogla technique. We compared donor age, graft size, surgical time, unfolding time, and visual outcomes between patients with and without double scroll configuration. The ability to form double scroll formation of DM grafts of various diameters and unfolding time of DM grafts was evaluated using total seven eye-bank eyes in ex vivo experiments. RESULTS A double scroll configuration inside a glass tube was successfully obtained in six DMEK grafts (54.5%). When comparing clinical features between those with and without double scroll configuration, only graft size was significantly larger in those with double scroll configuration (7.9 ± 0.2 mm) than in those without (7.4 ± 0.4, P = 0.03). There were no significant differences in other features and clinical outcomes, although unfolding-time was shorter in eyes with double scroll configuration (4.6 ± 2.0 min) compared to those without (8.6 ± 8.1, P = 0.21). Ex vivo experiments showed that unfolding time was significantly shorter in double scroll configuration (2.71 ± 0.49 min) than in single scroll (5.02 ± 0.79, P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS A double scroll configuration within a glass tube can be obtained more frequently in larger DMEK grafts (8.0 mm in diameter), which may result in easier and faster DMEK procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) outcomes and to determine the effect of operative time on complications of RIRS. METHODS Patients undergoing RIRS for renal stones were evaluated. These patients were divided into two groups according to the operation time (Group 1<60 minutes and Group 2>60 minutes). Peroperative outcomes such as fluoroscopy time, stone-free rates, complications and duration of hospitalization were compared. RESULTS Group 1 consisted of 264 patients and Group 2 consisted of 297 patients. SFR rates, duration of hospitalization, and postoperative urinary tract infection rates were similar in both groups. Fluoroscopy time was 7.8±7.3 (0-49) sec in group 1 and 13.1±9.8 (0-81) sec in group 2. Complications according to modified Clavien-Dindo classification system (MCDCS) were 13 and 32 patients (Grade 1), 31 and 63 patients (Grade 2), 1 and 1 patient (Grade 3) in group 1 and 2, respectively. There was statistical difference between the two groups in terms of duration of fluoroscopy time and the MCDCS. Although duration of hospitalization and UTI rates were higher in group 2, no statistical significance was observed among groups. CONCLUSION Limiting the operation time to 60 minutes in RIRS seems to be important in reducing postoperative complications.

Abstract
This study investigates the advantages and disadvantages of cone-beam-based navigated standardized posterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery (PLIF), regarding the radiation exposure and perioperative time management, compared to the use of fluoroscopy. Patients treated receiving an elective one- to three-level PLIF were retrospectively enrolled in the study. The surgery time, preparation time, operation room time, and effective dose (mSv) were analyzed for comparison of the radiation exposure and time consumption between cone-beam and fluoroscopy; Results: 214 patients were included (108 cone-beam navigated, and 106 traditional fluoroscopies). Using cone-beam navigation, reductions in the effective dose (2.23 ± 1.96 mSv vs. 3.39 ± 2.32 mSv, p = 0.002) and mean surgery time of 30 min (143.62 ± 43.87 min vs. 171.10 ± 48.91 min, p < 0.001) were demonstrated, which leveled out the extended preparation time of 7−8 min (37.25 ± 9.99 min vs. 29.65 ± 7.69 min, p < 0.001). These effects were fusion length dependent and demonstrated additional benefits in multisegmental surgeries. The cone-beam navigation system led to a reduction in the perioperative time requirements and radiation exposure. Furthermore, the controversially discussed longer preparation time when using cone-beam navigation was amortized by a shortened surgery time, especially in multilevel surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Obesity is a major technical limiting factor for laparoscopic surgery because abundant visceral fat is known to extend the operation time. However, special hardware is needed to assess it. We hypothesized that the depth from the peritoneum to the bifurcation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) defined as 'peritoneum to IMA distance (PID)' might be a simple predictive factor for extended operation time during laparoscopic colectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS One hundred twenty-four patients who were diagnosed with sigmoid or rectosigmoid colon cancer and underwent laparoscopic colectomy were included. The patients were divided into two groups based on the operation time (210 min). The vertical distance from the peritoneum to the bifurcation of the inferior mesenteric artery was defined as PID. The factors eliciting an operation time longer than 210 min were investigated. RESULTS There was significant difference in sex, BMI, cT, cN, and PID between the Early group (<210 min) and Late group (≥210 min). Less blood loss was observed in the Early group than in the Late group. Multivariate analysis showed that PID was the only independent factor that affected operation time (p<0.001). CONCLUSION PID predicts the operation time during laparoscopic colectomy for sigmoid or rectosigmoid colon cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We previously established a gross tissue response (GTR) system to evaluate the intraoperative response of perigastric tissue in patients with gastric cancers to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This prospective cohort study aims to confirm the relationship between gross tissue response and clinicopathological characteristics and explore the possibility of using the GTR system to predict the difficulty of surgery and the occurrence of postoperative complications within 30 days. METHODS A total of 102 patients with gastric cancer from January 2019 to April 2020 were enrolled in this study. The degrees of fibrosis, edema, and effusion in the perigastric tissues were assessed intraoperatively according to the GTR system. We systematically analyzed the relations between GTR and clinicopathological characteristics, and then a prediction model that includes GTR was established to predict the difficulty of surgery and the occurrence of postoperative complications within 30 days. RESULTS Finally, the study included 71 male patients and 31 female patients. The patients had an average age of 58.79 ± 1.03 years, BMI of 22.89 ± 0.29, and tumor diameter of 4.50 ± 0.27 cm. Among these patients, 17 underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy, 85 underwent open gastrectomy, the average operation time was 294.63 ± 4.84 minutes, and the mean volume of intraoperative blood loss was 94.65 ± 5.30 ml. The overall 30-day postoperative complication rate was 19.6% (20/102). The total GTR was significantly related to the primary tumor stage, operation time and 30-day postoperative complication rate (p<0.05). Edema and effusion were significantly related to intraoperative blood loss (p<0.05). The logistic regression analysis identified that the total GTR score (score: 4-9, OR 2.888, 95% CI: 1.035-8.062, p = 0.043) was an independent risk factor for postoperative complications within 30 days, and the total GTR score (score 4-9, OR 3.32, 95% CI 1.219-9.045, p=0.019) was also an independent risk factor for operation time. The AUC of the total GTR score for predicting postoperative complications within 30 days was 0.681. CONCLUSION According to the results of the present study, the gross tissue response (GTR) system is an effective tool that may be used to predict the risk of a difficult operation after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative complications. Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy improves the therapeutic effect, it also increases the risk of surgical trauma and postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delirium is a common postoperative complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA), excessively long time surgery may be one of the factors associated with it. This article aimed to employ literature retrieval and meta-analysis to investigate the correlation between operation time and postoperative delirium in THA. METHODS The databases of PubMed and Springerlink libraries were searched for retrospective case-control studies on delirium-related factors after THA. The retrieved studies were screened according to the inclusion criteria. Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to assess the quality of literatures. After extracting the data of included literatures, RevMan 5.3.5 software was used to analyze the data and obtain a forest plot and funnel plot. RESULTS A total of 137 literatures were initially screened in this study. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and literature quality evaluation, 6 studies were finally included, involving a total of 3,494 patients. The NOS scores were above 6 points in all 6 literatures. Meta-analysis revealed statistical heterogeneity among the 6 studies (I2=80%, P=0.0002). The random effects model was used, revealing that the operation time of patients with postoperative delirium was longer, and the difference was statistically significant [standardized mean difference (SMD) =0.43, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.20 to 0.66, P=0.0003]. The 6 studies were divided into unilateral or bilateral THA subgroups according to the type of surgery. Homogeneity was detected between the internal literatures: bilateral subgroup (I2=5%, P=0.37), unilateral subgroup (I2=0%, P=0.78). Postoperative delirium was associated with longer operation time in both subgroups, which was consistent with the combined analysis: bilateral subgroup (SMD =0.25, 95% CI: 0.12 to 0.37, P=0.0001), unilateral subgroup (SMD =0.70, 95% CI: 0.55 to 0.84, P=0.0001). DISCUSSION Operation time is one of the related factors of delirium after THA. The longer the operation time, the greater the possibility of delirium.

Abstract
Background: We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of minimally invasive surgery and open surgery in the simultaneous resection of colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases. Methods: A systematic literature search up to April 2021 was done and 13 studies included 1,181 subjects with colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases at the start of the study; 425 of them were using minimally invasive surgery and 756 were open surgery. They were reporting relationships between the outcomes of minimally invasive surgery and open surgery in the simultaneous resection of colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) or the mean difference (MD) with 95% CIs to assess the outcomes of minimally invasive surgery and open surgery in the simultaneous resection of colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases using the dichotomous or continuous method with a random or fixed-effect model. Results: Minimally invasive surgery in subjects with colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases was significantly related to longer operation time (MD, 35.61; 95% CI, 7.36-63.87, p = 0.01), less blood loss (MD, -151.62; 95% CI, -228.84 to -74.40, p < 0.001), less blood transfusion needs (OR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.42-0.89, p = 0.01), shorter length of hospital stay (MD, -3.26; 95% CI, -3.67 to -2.86, p < 0.001), lower overall complications (OR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.45-0.79, p < 0.001), higher overall survival (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.21-2.29, p = 0.002), and higher disease-free survival (OR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.13-1.97, p = 0.005) compared to open surgery. Conclusions: Minimally invasive surgery in subjects with colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal liver metastases may have less blood loss, less blood transfusion needs, shorter length of hospital stay, lower overall complications, higher overall survival, and higher disease-free survival with longer operation time compared with the open surgery. Furthers studies are required to validate these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse between a group in which only sutures were used (standard method), and a group in which a combination of tackers and sutures were used (tacker combination method). METHODS A total of 77 patients who underwent laparoscopic sacrocolpopexys from June 2016 to October 2019 were divided into a suture group (36 patients) and a suture + tacker group (41 patients). We retrospectively compared operation time, amount of blood loss, postoperative length of hospital stay, incidence of perioperative complications and anatomical cure rate 1 year after surgery. Lower urinary tract symptoms were evaluated using symptom questionnaires and objective parameters. RESULTS Operation time in the suture + tacker group was shorter (104.9 ± 27.0 vs 147.5 ± 33.7 min; P < 0.0001). The incidence of perioperative complications in the suture group and the suture + tacker group was 2.8% and 2.4%, respectively (P = 0.9409). Anatomical cure rates at 1 year after surgery were 94.4% and 100%, respectively (P = 0.2153). Both groups showed significant improvement after 1 year for International Prostate Symptom Score total and quality of life score, Overactive Bladder Symptom Score total score, voided volume, maximum urinary flow rate and post-void residual. [Corrections added on 7 September 2021 after first online publication: the first two P-values have been updated.] CONCLUSIONS: The combined use of sutures and tackers in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy simplifies the procedure and translates into shorter operation time. Surgical outcomes at 1 year and improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms are similar regardless of the technique.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of different operation time on the surgery effect and quality of life of patients with severe hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. METHODS A total of 98 patients with severe hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were selected in this prospective study. According to the random number table, 98 patients were divided into group A and group B. About 47 patients in group A received surgical treatment within 6 hours after onset of a cerebral hemorrhage and 51 patients in group B received surgical treatment within 6-24 hours after onset of a cerebral hemorrhage. The effect of the operation, quality of life (the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Brief Version, WHOQOL-BREF) score, neuro function (National Institute of Health stroke scale, NIHSS), the ability of daily living (Barthel index), athletic ability (Fugl-Meyer motor function score), complications and prognosis (GOS) were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The total effective rate of operation in group A (91.49%) was higher than that in group B (76.47%), and the incidence of complications (8.70%) was lower than that in group B (27.08%; all P<0.05). NIHSS score of group A was lower than that of group B, and the WHOQOL-BREF score was higher than that of group B three months after the operation (all P<0.05). Barthel Index and Fugl-Meyer motor function scores of group A were higher than those of group B three months after the operation (all P<0.05). The prognosis of group A was better than group B three months after the operation (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Operation performed within 6 hours after the onset of cerebral hemorrhage is useful in the treatment of severe hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. It can effectively improve patients' neurological function, the ability of daily living and motor function without increasing complications and, the quality of life, as well as the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This prospective study was performed to explore the change in sacrococcygeal pressure during an operation under general anesthesia in the supine position and identify the correlation between pressure injury and body mass index. METHODS This study involved 99 patients who underwent general anesthesia. Sacrococcygeal pressure was measured and recorded at seven time points: before general anesthesia, 5 minutes after general anesthesia, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours after the beginning of the operation. The pressure change at each time point was compared, and the factors affecting the pressure were analyzed. RESULTS The correlation analysis showed that the operation time was significantly and positively associated with the occurrence of pressure injury. CONCLUSION Perioperative management should be strengthened to speed up the surgical process and shorten the operation time, which will help to reduce the occurrence of intraoperative pressure injury.

Abstract
Methods: This retrospective cohort study identified patients who underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for lung cancer from January 2016 to December 2018 in a Chinese tertiary general hospital. The electronic hospital medical records associated with the VATS lobectomy for lung cancer were the data sources. Results: Based on the analysis of 433 patients with the utilization of staplers in their VATS lobectomy for lung cancer, using powered stapler was associated with significantly shorter operation time and postsurgery hospital stay length than using the manual stapler in the multivariable generalized linear regression analyses with the adjustment of patient characteristics. However, no other significant differences were observed for other clinical outcomes between the two staplers.

Abstract
To identify factors affecting blood loss and operation time (OT) during robotic myomectomy (RM), we reviewed a total of 448 patients who underwent RM at Seoul Asan Hospital between 1 January 2019, and 28 February 2021, at Seoul Asan Hospital. To avoid variations in surgical proficiency, only 242 patients managed by two surgeons who each performed >80 RM procedures during the study period were included in this study. All cases of RM were performed with a reduced port technique. We obtained the following data from each patient's medical chart: age, gravidity, parity, body mass index, and history of previous abdominal surgery including cesarean section. We also collected information on the maximal diameter and type of myomas, number and weight of removed myomas, concomitant surgery, total OT from skin incision to closure, estimated blood loss (EBL), and blood transfusion. Data on preoperative use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHas) and perioperative use of hemostatic agents (tranexamic acid or vasopressin) were also collected. Data on the length of hospital stay, postoperative fever within 48 h, and any complications related to RM were also obtained. The primary endpoint in this study was the identification of factors affecting EBL and the secondary endpoint was the identification of factors affecting the total OT during multiport RM. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify the factors affecting EBL and OT during multiport RM. The medians of the maximal diameter and weight of the removed myomas were 9.00 (interquartile range [IQR], 7.00 to 10.00) cm and 249.75 (IQR, 142.88 to 401.00) g, respectively. The median number of myomas was two (IQR, one to four), ranging from 1 to 34. Of the cases, 155 had low EBL and 87 had high EBL. Most myomas were of the intramural type (n = 179). The odds of EBL > 320 mL increased by 251% (odds ratio [OR], 2.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.16-5.42) for five to nine myomas and by 647% (OR, 6.47; 95% CI, 1.87-22.33) for ≥10 myomas. The odds of subserosal-type myomas decreased by 67% compared with intramural-type myomas (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.14-0.80). History of abdominal surgery other than cesarean section was positively correlated with EBL. The weight of the removed myomas and a history of previous cesarean section were not correlated with the EBL. Conclusion: The number of myomas (5-9 and ≥10), maximal myoma diameter, and history of abdominal surgery other than cesarean section affect the EBL in RM.

Abstract
Open reduction and pre-contoured locking plate fixation is a popular treatment option for displaced midshaft clavicle fracture. Lag screw and cerclage are 2 main intraoperative techniques to reduce and fix fragments. However, both lag screw and metallic cerclage have disadvantages. The doubled-suture Nice knot has been reported in many areas of orthopedic surgery for its effectiveness. This study aims to compare the outcomes of comminuted mid-shaft clavicle fractures reduced by Nice knots vs traditional techniques (lag screw or/and metallic cerclage) when bridged with pre-contoured locking plates.We retrospectively reviewed 101 patients (65 females and 36 males) diagnosed with midshaft clavicle fractures with at least one wedge fragment reduced by either Nice knots or traditional methods and bridged with pre-contoured locking plates between December 2016 and April 2019. Operation time, functional outcomes, pain, patient satisfaction, fracture healing, and complications were assessed at a follow-up of 12 to 40 months.The mean age of all the patients was 50.8 years. There were 52 and 49 patients in the Nice knot group and traditional group respectively, and no differences between 2 groups were found in general patient characteristics, fracture type, follow up and injury-to-surgery duration. The Nice knot group had significant less operation time (P < .01) than the traditional group (mean and standard deviation [SD], 78.6 ± 19.0 compared with 94.4 ± 29.9 minutes, respectively). For healing time, functional score, pain, satisfaction and complications, there were no significant differences between groups, despite the Nice knot group had slightly better results.Both Nice knots and traditional methods treated for comminuted Robinson type 2B clavicle fractures were effective and safe. And the Nice knots seemed to be superior with significant less operation time.

Abstract
Objective Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is a serious complication after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). We aimed to analyze the risk factors for APE in patients with OPCABG. Methods In this retrospective, observational study, patients with OPCABG who were treated in our hospital from 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2020 were included. The basic characteristics of patients and results of preoperative laboratory examinations were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 707 patients with OPCABG were included and the incidence of APE was 3.21%. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), a history of smoking, number of bypass grafting, duration of surgery, and age were significant risk factors for APE in patients with OPCABG. The areas under the curves of LVEF, number of bypass grafting, duration of surgery, and age were 0.773, 0.759, 0.738, and 0.723, respectively. The cutoff values of LVEF, number of bypass grafting, duration of surgery, and age were 59.84, 3.18, 237.42, and 73.28, respectively. Conclusions LVEF, a history of smoking, number of bypass grafting, duration of surgery, and age may be risk factors for APE in patients with OPCABG. Early measures should be taken to target these risks to prevent APE.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the efficacy of micro-incision vitrectomy surgery using a non-contact wide-angle viewing system for fovea-attached type epiretinal membrane, and to report the factors influencing the outcome. Methods A retrospective, comparative case series that included 50 patients with fovea-attached type epiretinal membrane who received micro-incision vitrectomy surgery using a non-contact wide-angle viewing system. Results All patients were followed-up for a minimum of 12 months. Seven cases were classified as group 1A (mainly outer retinal thickening), 17 were group 1B (more tenting of outer retina and distorted inner retina), and 26 were group 1C (prominent inner retina thickening and inward tenting of outer retina). Outcome measures included operation time, recurrent rate, postoperative BCVA, and CRT. The mean operative time was 26.2 minutes. The mean change of BCVA (LogMAR) was −0.43 (p< 0.001). The mean change of CRT was 135.3 μm (p< 0.001). The mean change of CRT was significantly higher in group 1C. Worse preoperative BCVA, male gender, and longer operative time can predict better postoperative BCVA found by multivariate logistic regression and multiple regression models. Conclusion Significant improvement in BCVA and CRT is noted after micro-incision vitrectomy surgery to operate fovea-attached type epiretinal membranes. Worse preoperative BCVA, male, and longer operation time could predict better improvement. These findings may assist surgeons in better evaluating the potential of this method to help their patients with epiretinal membranes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to identify radiographic factors that could predict surgical difficulty in direct anterior total hip arthroplasty (THA) for dysplastic hips. PATIENTS AND METHODS The clinical records of 160 patients (204 hips) who underwent primary THA for the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip were retrospectively investigated. All THAs were performed through a direct anterior approach by a single surgeon. A multiple regression analysis was developed to identify the independent predictor of operation time, including variables such as age, sex, height, body mass index (BMI), the use of bone cement, previous hip surgery, and radiographic references, including the pelvic horizontal to vertical ratio, the extent of proximal and horizontal migration of the femoral head, flatness of the femoral head, and the vertical distance between the tips of the greater trochanter and the femoral head. RESULTS A multiple regression analysis revealed that as radiographic factors, proximal migration of the femoral head, and lower position of the femoral head related to the greater trochanter were significantly associated with longer operation time. In addition, our results revealed that younger age, male sex, height, high BMI, cement use, and previous hip surgery were also significantly associated with longer operation time. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that proximal migration of the femoral head and high-riding greater trochanter are isolated radiographic predictors of the longer operation time of direct anterior THA for dysplastic hips.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM We conducted a randomized controlled trial to investigate whether minimally access spine surgery (MASS) is less morbid than open surgery (OS) in patients with metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 49 MSCC patients were included in the trial. The outcome measures were bleeding (L), operation time (min), re-operations and prolonged wound healing. RESULTS The median age was 67 years (range=42-85 years) and 40% were men. The peri-operative blood loss in the MASS-group was significantly lower than that in the OS-group; 0.175L vs. 0.500L, (p=0.002). The median operation time for MASS was 142 min (range=72-203 min) vs. 103 (range=59-435 min) for OS (p=0.001). There was no significant difference between the two groups concerning revision surgery or delayed wound healing. CONCLUSION The MASS technique in MSCC patients is associated with less blood loss, but a longer operation time when compared to the OS technique.

Abstract
Background: Although single-incision robotic cholecystectomy (SIRC) overcomes various limitations of single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC), it is associated with high cost. In this study, we intended to investigate if SIRC is recommendable and advantageous to patients despite its high cost. Materials and Methods: We prospectively collected and analysed data of patients who had undergone either SILC (n = 25) or SIRC (n = 50) for benign gallbladder diseases, with identical inclusion criteria, between November 2017 and February 2019. Results: SILC and SIRC showed similar operative outcomes in terms of intra- and post-operative complications and verbal numerical rating scale (VNRS) for pain. However, the SIRC group exhibited significantly longer operation time than the SILC group (83.2 ± 32.6 vs. 66.4 ± 32.8, P = 0.002). The SIRC group also showed longer hospital stay (2.4 ± 0.7 vs. 2.2 ± 0.6, P = 0.053). Although the SILC and SIRC groups showed no significant difference in VNRS, the SIRC group required a higher amount (126.0 ± 88.8 mg vs. 87.5 ± 79.7 mg, P = 0.063) and frequency (3.0 ± 2.1 vs. 2.0 ± 1.8, P = 0.033) of intravenous opioid analgesic administration. During surgery, the critical view of safety (CVS), the prerequisite for safe cholecystectomy, was identified in only 24% (n = 6) of patients undergoing SILC and in 100% (n = 50) of patients undergoing SIRC (P < 0.05). Conclusion: We conclude that although SILC and SIRC have similar operative outcomes, SIRC is advantageous over SILC because of its potential to markedly enhance the safety of patients by proficiently acquiring CVS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are many clinical associations and potential mechanisms of injury resulting in recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy (RLNP) after thyroidectomy. One possible cause of RLNP is focal intralaryngeal compression of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), which may be associated with the tracheal tube (TT). Therefore, we examined current RLNP rates to investigate potential associations, including intralaryngeal, airway, anaesthetic and anthropometric factors. METHODS We analysed 1003 patients undergoing thyroid surgery at The Alfred from 2010 to 2017, who had anatomically intact RLNs at the conclusion of thyroidectomy. All included patients underwent pre- and post-operative flexible nasendoscopy. The primary outcome was RLNP rate. We analysed potential associated factors including age, sex, operative time, surgical indication, pathology, American Society of Anaesthesiologists Physical Status, Mallampati scores, body mass index, intubation grade, TT size and specimen weight. The independent risk factors were identified by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Overall, RLNP occurred in 83 patients (8.3%) of which one was permanent (0.1%). On univariate analysis, RLNP was associated with male sex (P = 0.02), and duration of surgery (P = 0.002). On multivariate analysis, both male sex (P = 0.047) and duration of surgery (P = 0.04) remained significant. Further, factors postulated to cause intralaryngeal compression of the RLN, including TT size, body mass index, intubation grade and Mallampati score, were not significantly associated with RLNP. CONCLUSION Our study showed a RLNP rate of 8.3%, and associations with longer operative duration, and male sex. Potential intralaryngeal factors were not identified.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to analyze the correlation between perioperative hidden blood loss (HBL) and the general condition of patients undergoing transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent TLIF from July 2017 to July 2019 in our hospital. Sex, age, body mass index, underlying diseases, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, coagulation function, preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin level and hematocrit, surgery time, fusion level, intraoperative blood loss, and drainage volume were recorded. Postoperative complications were also recorded. The amount of HBL was calculated, and its correlation with related variables was analyzed. Results The mean surgery time was 153.32 ± 54.86 minutes. The total perioperative blood loss was 789.22 ± 499.68 mL, including HBL of 315.69 ± 199.87 mL. Pearson correlation analysis showed statistically significant differences in HBL according to the body mass index, hypertension, fibrinogen, surgery time, and fusion level. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that the surgery time and fusion level were independent risk factors for HBL. Conclusions A certain amount of HBL occurs in TLIF surgery and cannot be ignored in daily clinical work. The operation time and surgery level are independent risk factors for HBL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to examine the predisposing factors that play a role in the development of complications in patients undergoing vaginal hysterectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective analysis was performed on data provided from 239 patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy due to uterine prolapse at a single centre between January 2008 and August 2018. Complications were defined according to Clavien-Dindo classification of complications. The patients were divided into two groups: with and without complications. We built a model using multivariable logistic regression to examine the relationships between complications and five candidate predictors. RESULTS Intra/postoperative complications developed in 30 patients, and the complication rate was found to be 12.5%. 87.2% of the reported complications were classified as Grade ≤ 2 according to Clavien-Dindo system. It was found that complications were associated with factors such as intraoperative concurrent salpingo-oophorectomy [Odds ratio (OR): 1.24 (1.1-1.4)], low preoperative haemoglobin [OR: 0.96 (0.94-0.98)], uterine weight [OR: 2.69 (2.62-2.76)], and long operation time [OR: 1.04 (1.02-1.07)]. History of pelvic surgery was not found to increase complication rate [OR: 1.11 (0.96-1.27), p = 0.13]. Our multiple logistic regression model correctly classified 74% of participants within the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative anaemia, large uterus and concomitant adnexectomy were found to be factors associated with complications during and after vaginal hysterectomy for pelvic organ prolapse.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: There are currently no data available regarding pediatric scoliosis surgery in Latvia. The aim of this article is to present treatment specific variables, investigate their interrelation, and identify predictors for the length of stay after surgical pediatric scoliosis correction. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included all surgical pediatric scoliosis corrections in Latvia for the years 2012 to 2016. Analyzed parameters were chosen to portray the patients' demographics, pathology, as well as treatment specific variables. Descriptive, inferential, and linear regression statistics were calculated. Results: A total of 69 cases, 74% female and 26% male, were identified. The diagnostic subgroups consisted of 62% idiopathic (IDI) and 38% non-idiopathic (non-IDI) scoliosis cases. Non-IDI cases had significantly increased operation time, hospital stay, Cobb angle before surgery, and instrumented levels, while IDI cases showed significantly higher Cobb angle percentage correction. For all operated cases, the operation time and the hospital stay decreased significantly over the investigated time period. Early post-operative complications (PCs) occurred in 15.9% of the cases and were associated with increased hospital stay, instrumented levels, and Cobb angle before surgery. The linear regression analysis revealed that operation time and the presence of PCs were significant predictors for the length of the hospital stay. Conclusions: This is the first study to provide comprehensive insight into pediatric scoliosis surgery since its establishment in Latvia. Our regression model offers clinically applicable predictors and further underlines the significance of the operation length on the hospital stay. These results build the foundation for international comparison and facilitate improvement in the field.

Abstract
Background Our previous report described how postoperative progression of sarcopenia predicted long-term prognosis after complete resection of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in heavy smokers. However, there are currently no effective means to treat progressive sarcopenia. In this study, we aimed to confirm our previous findings in a larger population and to identify factors associated with postoperative progression of sarcopenia to propose possible preventative measures. Methods This retrospective study analyzed the data of 1,095 patients who underwent curative lobar resection for NSCLC at Kanagawa Cancer Center. We divided patients into four groups according to sex and Brinkman index (BI) above or below 600. Six-month postoperative changes in the skeletal muscle index (SMI) were calculated and associations between clinicopathological factors including changes in SMI and mortality from postoperative 6 months were examined. Only in groups in which postoperative depletion of SMI was shown to be associated with the prognosis, we identified clinicopathological factors associated with depletive SMI. Results The overall survival rates of 1,095 patients were 89.8% and 82.5% at 3 and 5 years, respectively. The median 6-month change in SMI was –3.4% (range, −22.3% to +17.9%). Multivariate analysis revealed that poor prognosis was independently predicted by a large reduction in the SMI (cut-off value: −10%) in males with a BI ≥600. In 391 heavy-smoking males, factors associated with a postoperative change in SMI ≤−10% were history of other cancers (including gastric cancer) low forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1.0, cut-off value: 1,870 mL), and prolonged operation time (cut-off value: 200 minutes). Conclusions Perioperative measures to prevent postoperative sarcopenia are appropriate for heavy smokers. We obtained some clues regarding countermeasures, one of which may be avoiding long-time operation. Further studies including clinical trials to assess perioperative anti-sarcopenia treatments, are needed.

Abstract
Background Pulmonary mucormycosis (PM) is a relatively rare but fatal infection. However, detailed surgery data have been lacking. We summarized the characteristics of this rare disease and clarified the experiences of surgical resection Methods We conducted a single-center retrospective study of seven patients with PM who underwent surgical resection at China-Japan Friendship Hospital from May 2011 to May 2018. Results Patient ages ranged from 18 to 70 years, with a median age of 47 years. Manual workers (85.7%) were the most common occupation and their educational level was also below high school. Diabetes was the most common underlying condition. The most common radiographic finding was lobar consolidation. Three patients directly underwent open thoracotomy, one patient underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and three patients converted from VATS to thoracotomy. The median operation time was 240 min [interquartile range (IQR), 150–390 min], the median intraoperative blood loss was 500 mL (IQR, 100–1,200 mL) and the median intraoperative blood transfusion was 600 mL (IQR, 0–1,600 mL). In-hospital, 90-day, 1-year and 5-year mortality were 14.3%, 14.3%, 28.8% and 42.9%, respectively. Conclusions PM is a rare but fatal infection. Due to chest adhesion and vascular invasion, the proportion of massive bleeding and long operation time has increased sharply.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate and discuss the therapeutic effect of pre-operative tirofiban on patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) within 6-24 h. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively queried our AIS database from January to November 2018, and selected 99 patients with AIS within 6-24 h and evidence of proximal large vessel occlusion who were suitable for MT. They were divided into two groups, group A (with tirofiban, n = 56) and group B (without tirofiban, n = 43), according to whether they were intravenously infused with tirofiban before MT. The baseline characteristics and outcomes of patients were subjected to statistical analysis, including age, gender and risk factors, occlusion site, the time from onset to door, time of door to puncture, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), pre-operative Alberta stroke programme early CT (ASPECT) score, angioplasty/stenting, modified Rankin Scale score 0-2 at 3 months, symptomatic haemorrhage and mortality, the time of door to recanalization, endovascular procedure time, 7-day (7d) NIHSS score, and a modified treatment in cerebral infarction (m-TICI) grade of 2b or 3. All of the thrombi were analysed by histopathology. RESULTS The differences in the time of door to recanalization, endovascular procedure time, 7d NIHSS score and the m-TICI were significantly different between groups (P < 0.05). The other agents were not significantly different between groups (P > 0.05 each). Histopathological analysis showed that all thrombi contained different amounts of platelets, fibrinogen, Haemamoebas and red blood cells. CONCLUSION The use of tirofiban before MT can shorten the procedure time and improve the recanalization rate of occluded vessels in AIS patients.

Abstract
Presentation to an emergency department (ED) after foot and ankle surgeries not only causes inconvenience to patients but also increases healthcare costs. To minimize this, many major institutions have tracked these data as a part of quality improvement measures. Our previous study showed that factors associated with any (surgery-related and unrelated) postoperative ED visits were not easily modifiable by surgeons. Therefore, in the current study, we focused on factors associated specifically with surgery-related postoperative ED visits, because this may provide some insights for surgeons rather than just administrators. We examined 513 foot and ankle surgeries, of which 114 resulted in 30-day postoperative ED visits for surgery-related reasons. Demographic, medical, and surgical factors were evaluated, and risk factors were identified after adjusting for potential clinically relevant covariates. Both inpatient and outpatient surgical settings and outpatient surgical settings alone were analyzed separately. Regardless of the setting, we found that shorter surgery was protective against postoperative ED visits, as was having a previous ED visit within 6 months before surgery. In the outpatient setting, younger age and having no insurance were also proxies for a postoperative ED visit, in addition to the above factors.

Abstract
Study Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on laparoscopic hysterectomy outcomes. Design: This was retrospective study. Setting: Minoh City Hospital, Japan. Materials and Methods: Between January 1, 2014, and June 30, 2017, 183 patients underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) at our institution. Intervention: Patients who underwent TLH were grouped according to BMI, as follows: underweight group (BMI <18.5 kg/m2), normal-weight group (18.5 ≤BMI <25 kg/m2), overweight group (25 ≤BMI <30 kg/m2), and obese group (BMI ≥30 kg/m2). Measurements and Main Results: Information on patients’ clinical characteristics and surgical results were collected retrospectively by medical record review. The severity of complications was graded according to the Clavien–Dindo classification. We assessed clinical characteristics, surgical results, and the perioperative complications in each BMI group. Surgical results included operation time, nonsurgical operating room time estimated blood loss, uterine weight, and postoperative hospital stay. Compared with the normal-weight group, the obese group had significantly more complications (P = 0.012) and longer operation time (P = 0.04). The underweight and overweight groups did not have significantly different surgical results than the normal-weight group. Conclusion: Underweight and overweight patients had no significant differences in surgical results, compared with patients of normal weight. Obese patients had significantly longer operation times and more perioperative complications than patients with normal weight. Laparoscopic hysterectomy has burdens and risks for obese patients. Our results suggest that appropriate weight control may decrease the risk of surgery for obese patients.

Abstract
The benefits of navigation-assisted technologies are not entirely understood. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the outcomes of patients with lumbar tuberculosis who received computer navigation-assisted minimally invasive direct lateral interbody fusion (DLIF).This was a retrospective study of 33 patients with lumbar tuberculosis who underwent minimally invasive DLIF at the Department of Spine and Orthopedics of Guigang People's Hospital (Guangxi, China) between January 2015 and December 2016. The patients were pathologically diagnosed as lumbar tuberculosis and grouped into the navigation-assisted fluoroscopy (NAV; n = 18) and non-navigation-assisted fluoroscopy (non-NAV; n = 15) groups. X-ray exposure and operation times were assessed in all patients.All surgical procedures were successfully completed. No case was converted into open surgery. The NAV group had longer surgical preparation time but shorter operation time compared with the non-NAV group (both P <.01). Total operation time showed no significant difference between the 2 groups (P = .1). The time of radiation exposure in the non-NAV group was longer compared with that of the NAV group (53.2 ± 9.9 vs 13.5 ± 2.6 s; P <.01). There were no significant differences regarding intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, length of hospital stay, bone fusion and complications between the 2 groups (all P >.05).Computer navigation-assisted minimally invasive DLIF could significantly reduce intraoperative radiation exposure, with no increase in total operation time.

Abstract
Background Operative management of lower back pain often necessitates anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) or transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). Specific pathoanatomic advantages and indications exist for both approaches, and few studies to date have characterized comparative early outcomes. Methods Adult patients undergoing elective ALIF or TLIF operations were abstracted from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) years 2011-2014. Univariate analyses were performed by surgery cohort for each outcome and adjusted for demographic/clinical variables (age ≥ 65, sex, race, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical classification score, functional status, inpatient/outpatient status, smoking, hypertension, Charlson Comorbidity Index) using multivariable regression. Means, standard errors, mean differences (B), odds ratios (ORs), and associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are reported. Significance was assessed at P < .05. Results Of 8263 subjects (ALIF: 4325, TLIF: 3938), ALIF subjects were younger, less obese, less physically impaired, and had significantly lower rates of hypertension, diabetes, coagulopathy, and previous cardiac surgery. On multivariable analysis, ALIF associated with shorter operative time (B = -11.80 minutes, 95% CI [-16.48, -7.12]; P < .001). Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion was associated with increased incidence of urinary tract infections (UTIs; OR = 1.57, 95% CI [1.10, 2.26]; P = .013) and of blood transfusions (OR = 1.19, 95% CI [1.04, 1.37]; P = .012). Multivariate analysis also demonstrated TLIF associated with shorter hospital length of stay (B = -0.27 days, 95% CI [-0.54, -0.01]; P = .041), and fewer cases of pneumonia (OR = 0.55, 95% CI [0.32, 0.94]; P = .029) and prolonged ventilator dependency (OR = 0.33, 95% CI [0.12, 0.84]; P = .021). Conclusions Comparatively, ALIF patients experienced decreased operative time and decreased incidence of postoperative UTIs and blood transfusions. Anterior lumbar interbody fusion patients were more likely to suffer postoperative pulmonary complications and longer hospital stays. Our data support the notion that both anterior and transforaminal surgical approaches perform comparably in context of 30-day perioperative outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To preoperatively predict the operative time (OT) for hysteroscopic myomectomy for G1 or G2 leiomyoma based on leiomyoma weight. METHODS The data from 544 patients who underwent one-step hysteroscopic myomectomy were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 340 patients with leiomyoma penetrating the intramural cavity were identified as suitable candidates for calculation of the OT based on leiomyoma weight; we considered leiomyoma weight to be the most objective parameter for evaluating leiomyoma tissues. Additionally, 460 patients with a single leiomyoma were analyzed to estimate the weight of the resected leiomyoma based on its diameter. RESULTS Considering total leiomyoma weight (TLW) and two additional coefficients (1.5: G2 leiomyoma, 0.75: vaginal parity of the patient), we demonstrated that our formula correlated well with OT (R 2 = 0.72). TLW also correlated well with the cube of the average diameter (AD) of leiomyomas (R 2 = 0.89). Predicting TLW significantly improved the application of specific coefficients depending on its value (1.0: AD 0.1-2.0 cm, 0.8: AD 2.1-3.0 cm, 0.7: AD 3.1-5.7 cm). CONCLUSION The OT for hysteroscopic myomectomy of intracavital leiomyoma can be predicted prior to surgery using simple clinical information of the target leiomyoma and the patient.
