    Abstract Background: In both clinical practice and residency training, the use of robotic platforms in surgery is becoming more common. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review of the perioperative outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic paraesophageal hernia (PEH) repair.
    Methods: The PRISMA statement guidelines were used to perform this systematic review. We conducted a database search which included Ovid MEDLINE(R) and Epub Ahead of Print, In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations, and Daily, Ovid EMBASE, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus. There were 384 articles discovered in the initial search using various keywords. From those 384 articles, after duplicates were removed and publications were eliminated based on eligibility criteria, 7 publications were then chosen for analysis. Risk of bias was assessed using Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool. Narrative synthesis of results has been provided.
    Results: When compared to standard laparoscopic approaches, robotic surgery for large PEHs may offer benefits in terms of decreased conversion rate and shorter hospital stay. Some studies found a decrease in need for esophageal lengthening procedures and fewer long-term recurrences. The perioperative complication rate is similar between the two techniques in most studies; however, one large study of nearly 170,000 patients in the early years of robotics adoption demonstrated a higher rate of esophageal perforation and respiratory failure in the robotic group (2.2% increase in absolute risk). Cost is another disadvantage of robotic repair when compared to laparoscopic repair. Our study is limited by the non-randomized and retrospective nature of the studies.
    Conclusions: More studies into recurrence rates and long-term complications are needed to determine the efficacy of robotic versus laparoscopic PEHs repair.

    Abstract Small bowel carcinomas are rare in the general population, but the incidence is increasing. Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are at significantly higher risk of small bowel adenocarcinomas than their non-IBD counterparts, with Crohn's patients having at least a 12-fold increased risk and ulcerative colitis patients with a more controversial and modest 2-fold increased risk compared with the general population. IBD patients with small bowel carcinomas present with nonspecific symptoms that overlap with typical IBD symptoms, and this results in difficulty making a preoperative diagnosis. Cross-sectional imaging is rarely diagnostic, and most cancers are found incidentally at the time of surgery performed for an IBD indication. As such, most small bowel carcinomas are found at advanced stages and carry a poor prognosis. Oncologic surgical resection is the treatment of choice for patients with locoregional disease with little evidence available to guide adjuvant therapy. Patients with metastatic disease are treated with systemic chemotherapy, and surgery is reserved for palliation in this population. Prognosis is poor with few long-term survivors reported.

    Abstract Introduction: Idiopathic myointimal hyperplasia of mesenteric veins (IMHMV) is a rare type of chronic colonic ischemia. Patients commonly present with progressive abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, and weight loss. IMHMV is a common mimicker of inflammatory bowel disease. However, medical management does not have a primary role and curative treatment is surgical resection.
    Presentation of case: We report two cases of IMHMV with atypical presentation. The first is an 82-year-old male who had refractory, painless, explosive, and non-bloody diarrhea initially treated with antidiarrheal medications and dietary changes to no effect. Colonoscopy was not clarifying. However, CT scan had characteristic findings of IMHMV. He underwent partial colectomy and recovered well. The second case is a 59-year-old male who had recurrent episodes of sudden, massive diarrhea. He was initially treated for diverticulitis based on colonoscopy findings but did not experience relief. Eventually, MRI of the abdomen was suggestive of IMHMV. He underwent surgical resection, which confirmed the diagnosis of IMHMV. He was treated for Clostridioides difficile diarrhea five months after surgery and pulmonary embolism seven months after surgery. With over a year of follow up, neither has had disease recurrence.
    Discussion: Diagnosis and treatment of rare disorders like IMHMV is challenging, especially when they mimic common entities or present in atypical ways.
    Conclusion: We present two cases to highlight IMHMV as part of the differential for colitis-like symptoms. These cases demonstrate the importance of diagnostic imaging in diagnosis. Diagnostic uncertainty can lead to exposure to ineffective medical treatments and delay in curative surgery.

    Abstract Diseases affecting the aortic arch often require surgical intervention. Hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) enables a safe approach during open aortic arch surgeries. Additionally, HCA provides neuroprotection by reducing cerebral metabolism and oxygen requirements. However, HCA comes with significant risks (eg, neurologic dysfunction, stroke, and coagulopathy), and the cardiac anesthesiologist must completely understand the surgical techniques, possible complications, and management strategies.

    Abstract Background: The effect of previous abdominal surgery (PAS) in laparoscopic surgery is well known and significantly adds to longer hospital length of stay (LOS), postoperative ileus, and inadvertent enterotomies. However, little evidence exists in patients with PAS undergoing robotic-assisted (RA) rectal surgery.
    Methods: All patients undergoing RA surgery for rectal cancer were reviewed. Patients with PAS were divided into minor and major PAS groups, defined as surgery involving >1 quadrant. The primary outcome was the risk of conversion to open surgery.
    Results: A total of 750 patients were included, 531 in the no-PAS (NPAS) group, 31 in the major PAS group, and 188 in the minor PAS group. Patients in the major PAS group had significantly longer hospital LOS (P < .001) and lower adherence to enhanced recovery pathways (ERPs; P = .004). The conversion rates to open surgery were similar: 3.4% in the NPAS group, 5.9% in the minor PAS group, and 9.7% in the major PAS group (P = .113). Estimated blood loss (EBL; P = .961), operative times (OTs; P = .062), complication rates (P = .162), 30-day readmission (P = .691), and 30-day mortality (P = .494) were similar. Of note, 53 patients underwent lysis of adhesions (LOA). On multivariate analysis, EBL >500 mL and LOA significantly influenced conversion to open surgery. EBL >500 mL, age >65 years, conversion to open surgery, and prolonged OT were risk factors for prolonged LOS, whereas adherence to ERPs was a protector.
    Conclusion: PAS did not seem to affect the outcomes in RA rectal surgery. Given this finding, the robotic approach may ultimately provide patients with PAS with similar risk to patients without PAS.

    Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-related hypercoagulability has been of great interest in the pathophysiology of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Many patients have clinical findings of dead-space ventilation, similar to pulmonary embolism. Herein, a patient who presented with COVID-19 pneumonia and whose condition rapidly deteriorated to respiratory failure requiring intubation is described. Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) was administered because of concern of pulmonary microemboli, with improvement of respiratory status and extubation within 24 hours. Patients with COVID-19 infection have an increased risk of thrombus formation,
