RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Preserving sufficient oxygen supply to the tissue is fundamental for maintaining organ function. However, our ability to identify those at risk and promptly recognize tissue hypoperfusion during abdominal surgery is limited. To address this problem, we aimed to develop a new method of perfusion monitoring that can be used during surgical procedures and aid surgeons' decision-making. METHODS: In this experimental porcine study, thirteen subjects were randomly assigned one organ of interest [stomach (n = 3), ascending colon (n = 3), rectum (n = 3), and spleen (n = 3)]. After baseline perfusion recordings, using high-frequency, low-dose bolus injections with weight-adjusted (0.008 mg/kg) ICG, organ-supplying arteries were manually and completely occluded leading to hypoperfusion of the target organ. Continuous organ perfusion monitoring was performed throughout the experimental conditions. RESULTS: After manual occlusion of pre-selected organ-supplying arteries, occlusion of the peripheral arterial supply translated in an immediate decrease in oscillation signal in most organs (3/3 ventricle, 3/3 ascending colon, 3/3 rectum, 2/3 spleen). Occlusion of the central arterial supply resulted in a further decrease or complete disappearance of the oscillation curves in the ventricle (3/3), ascending colon (3/3), rectum (3/3), and spleen (1/3). CONCLUSION: Continuous organ-perfusion monitoring using a high-frequency, low-dose ICG bolus regimen can detect organ hypoperfusion in real-time.

The current application of robotic surgery is evolving at a high pace in the current years. The technical advantages enable several abdominal surgical procedures to be performed minimally invasive instead of open surgery. Furthermore, procedures previously performed successfully using standard laparoscopy are now performed with a robotic approach, with conflicting results. The present narrative review reports the current literature on the robotic surgical procedures typically performed in a typical Scandinavian surgical department: colorectal, hernia, hepato-biliary, and esophagogastric surgery.

BACKGROUND: Serrated lesions and polyps (SP) are precursors of up to 30â¯% of colorectal cancers (CRC) through the serrated pathway. This often entails early BRAF mutations and MLH1 hypermethylation leading to mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) CRC. We investigated predictors of dMMR CRC among patients with co-occurrence of CRC and SP to increase our knowledge on the serrated pathway. METHODS: We used data from The Danish Pathology Registry and Danish Colorectal Cancer Groups Database from the period 2010-2021 to investigate risk factors for development of dMMR CRC. We used logistic regression models to identify difference in risk factors of developing dMMR CRC in comparison to CRC with proficient MMR (pMMR). RESULTS: We included 3273 patients with a median age of 70.7 years [64.3,76.4] of which 1850 (56.5â¯%) were male. dMMR CRC was present in 592 patients (18.1â¯%), with loss of MLH1/PMS2 being most common. The risk of dMMR CRC was significantly higher in females OR 3.47 [2.87;4.20]. When adjusting for age, SP subtype, conventional adenomas (CA), anatomical location and lifestyle factors, female sex remained the strongest predictor OR 2.84 [2.27;3.56]. The presence of sessile serrated lesions with or without dysplasia was related to higher risk OR 1.60 [1.11;2.31] and OR 1.42 [1.11;1.82] respectively, while conventional adenomas constituted a lower risk OR 0.68 [0.55;0.84]. CONCLUSION: In conclusion we found several predictors of whom female sex had the strongest correlation with dMMR CRC in patients with SP.
