    Abstract Background: In this retrospective cohort study, we assessed the utility of laparoscopic surgery for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in patients with anterior abdominal stab wounds (AASWs). We also investigated patient characteristics that might suggest a greater suitability of laparoscopic interventions.
    Methods: Over a 25-year span, we analyzed AASW patients who had operations, categorizing them based on the presence of significant intra-abdominal injuries and whether they received laparoscopic surgery or laparotomy. We compared variables such as preoperative conditions, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes. We further evaluated the criteria indicating the necessity of direct laparotomies and traits linked to overlooked injuries in laparoscopic surgeries.
    Results: Of 142 AASWs surgical patients, laparoscopic surgery was conducted on 89 (62.7%) patients. Only 2 (2.2%) had overlooked injuries after the procedure. Among patients without significant injuries, those receiving laparoscopic surgery had less blood loss than those receiving laparotomy (30.0 vs. 150.0 ml, p = 0.004). Patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery also had shorter hospital stays (significant injuries: 6.0 vs. 11.0 days, p < 0.001; no significant injuries: 5.0 vs. 6.5 days, p = 0.014). Surgical complications and overlooked injury rates were comparable between both surgical methods. Bowel evisceration correlated with higher laparotomy odds (odds ratio = 16.224, p < 0.001), while omental evisceration did not (p = 0.107).
    Conclusions: Laparoscopy is a safe and effective method for patients with AASWs, fulfilling both diagnostic and therapeutic needs. For stable AASW patients, laparoscopy could be the preferred method, reducing superfluous nontherapeutic laparotomies.

    Abstract Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a popular treatment for voiding dysfunction in Eastern countries. However, no previous studies have investigated the effects of TCM on preventing obstructive uropathy in uterovaginal prolapse women. We conducted a large-scale nationwide population-based cohort study to investigate the relationship between TCM and obstructive uropathy in uterovaginal prolapse women. This is a retrospective cohort study with the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). The study population was newly diagnosed uterovaginal prolapse patients between 1997 and 2010 year. Among patients, 762 uterovaginal prolapse patients in this cohort. Significant adjusted HRs of urine retention or hydronephrosis in Cox proportional hazard models were uterovaginal prolapse (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.74, 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 1.43-2.14), age 40 to 64 years (1.51, 1.01-2.27), ≥60 years (3.52, 2.32-5.34), DM (1.52, 1.23-1.89), hypertension (1.38, 1.13-1.7), constipation (1.35, 1.05-1.75), urinary tract calculi (1.54, 1.06-2.23), and TCM users (0.34, 0.28-0.41). The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a higher incidence rate of urine retention or hydronephrosis in the uterovaginal prolapse cohort compared with that of the without uterovaginal prolapse cohort. The results of this nationwide population-based study support a relationship between TCM and a reduced risk of obstructive uropathy in uterovaginal prolapse women.

    Abstract According to the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory, congenital anomalies are caused by kidney malfunctions, which decreased the bone quality, and may eventually result in bone fractures. This retrospective cohort study investigated the relationship between congenital anomalies and fracture of spine, trunk, and upper and lower limbs in young people. We utilized data from the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan. This study included patients with congenital anomalies (International Classification of Diseases/ICD-9 code: 740-759) and a comparison group of patients without congenital anomalies. Cases evaluated were fracture of spine and trunk (ICD-9 codes: 805-809), fracture of upper limbs (ICD-9 codes: 810-819), and fracture of lower limbs (ICD-9 codes: 820-829). Our study shows that in comparison to the control group, patients with congenital anomalies are 1.11 times more likely to develop fractures. This is the first documented research study that supports the TCM theory that "the Kidney governs the bones, and healthy bones give the body stabilization and prevent fracture."

    Abstract Laparoscopic hepatectomy and hepaticojejunostomy remain a surgical challenge despite the recent advances in minimally invasive surgery. A robotic surgical system has been developed to overcome the inherent limitations of the traditional laparoscopic approach. However, techniques of robotic hepatectomy have not been well described, and a description of robotic major hepatectomy with bilioenteric anastomosis can be found only in two previous reports. Here, we report a 33-year-old man with a history of choledochocyst resection. The patient experienced repeat cholangitis with left hepatolithiasis during follow-up. Robotic left hepatectomy and revision of hepaticojejunostomy were performed smoothly. The patient recovered uneventfully and remained symptoms-free at a follow-up of 20 months. The robotic approach is beneficial in the fine dissection of the hepatic hilum and revision of hepaticojejunostomy in this particular patient.
