OBJECTIVE In the last decade, surgery of primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) due to a solitary adenoma has moved on from the traditional wide bilateral neck exploration (BNE) to more limited approaches such as unilateral neck exploration and minimally invasive parathyroidectomy. DESIGN To define the role of intraoperative gamma probe and injection of a low (99m)Tc-MIBI dose in performing minima...

The minimally invasive treatment of liver tumors represents an alternative to the open surgery approach. Radio-frequency ablation destroys a tumor by delivering radio-frequency energy through a needle probe. Traditionally, the probe is placed manually using imaging feedback. New approaches use robotic devices to accurately place the instrument at the target. The authors developed an image-guide...

Backgrounds and Objectives: Today we are witnessed a growing number of minimally invasive surgical techniques for different diseases. Laparoscopic colon surgery as a minimally invasive surgery is currently growing in treatment of malignancies after proving his place in the treatment of benign diseases. We compare in this study results of laparoscopic colorectal surgery with open surgery. Method...

  Wound complications following ankle fracture surgery are a major concern. Through the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques some of these complications can be mitigated. Recent investigations have reported on percutaneous fixation of distal fibula fractures demonstrating similar radiographic and functional outcomes to traditional open approaches. The purpose of this manuscript is to ...
