INTRODUCTION: There is no clear consensus on the effect of computer games on laparoscopic surgical performance, this maybe due to the type of games used. This study aims to compare two high fidelity computer games, and their effect on the learning curve in laparoscopic surgery.METHODS AND PROCEDURES: 31 laparoscopic naïve subjects were randomly assigned to […]

Single Port Appendectomy has been described. One of the problems of single port surgery is that there are limited valves for insertion of instruments and that the instruments tend to clash with the camera outside as the point of ingress is the same. Caddedu and colleagues have been working on a magnetic camera that can […]

Introduction: We hypothesize that gender, BMI and preoperative chemoradiation may influence the ability to perform a hand-assisted laparoscopic (HAL) resection for patients with rectal cancer.Methods: We performed retrospective analysis of patients who underwent HAL resection of rectal cancer. Four trocars and a standard 7 cm incision length were used. We abstracted clinical and pathological variables […]

INTRODUCTIONEndoscopic balloon dilation has been shown to be an effective treatment for gastrojejunal (GJ) strictures after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). We hypothesize the number of necessary interventions is influenced by the time interval since RYGB. This is a retrospective review examining the relationship between the interval from RYGB to balloon dilation in patients with stricture.MATERIALS […]
