    Abstract Background: Over the last decade, there has been growing diffusion of minimally invasive surgery in the setting of abdominal emergencies. However, right-colon diverticulitis is still mainly approached by conventional celiotomy.
    Materials and methods: A video vignette is presented showing the details of an emergent laparoscopic right colectomy as performed to treat a 59-year-old woman who presented with clinical signs of peritonitis, and radiologic findings suggestive of acute right-colon diverticulitis complicated by perforation of the hepatic flexure and periduodenal abscess. We also aimed to evaluate the relative outcomes of laparoscopic versus conventional surgery by meta-analyzing the currently available comparative evidence on the argument.
    Results: A total of 2848 patients were included in the analysis, of which 979 patients received minimally invasive surgery and 1869 had conventional surgery. Laparoscopic surgery had a longer operating time and resulted in an abbreviated hospital stay. Overall, patients receiving laparoscopy had significantly lower morbidity than those whose surgery was undertaken by laparotomy, while there was no statistically significant difference in terms of postoperative mortality.
    Conclusions: According to the existing literature, minimally invasive surgery improves the postoperative outcomes of patients receiving surgery for right-sided colonic diverticulitis.

    Abstract Situs viscerum inversus (SVI) is a very rare condition in that abdominal and thoracic organs are located reversed. Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening pathology due to progressive aortic enlargement until the rupture. The association between SVI and AAA is very infrequent. The aim of this study is to identify the surgical procedures available to treat AAA in SVI. We performed a literature review of all studies about AAA in SVI patients, analyzing PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science (WOS), Google Scholar databases. The survey includes all publications until June 2023. The outcomes include demographic findings, type of surgical procedure, intraoperative and postoperative complications, follow-up. A total of 12 studies, including 12 patients, were considered eligible for the review. AAA mean size was 70.5 mm (range: 55-90 mm); the most common localization was in the infrarenal aortic portion. 6 studies reported data on elective surgery, and 6 on emergency procedures. In one case endovascular treatment was performed. No intraoperative complications are reported; 3 postoperative complications are registered. Medium follow-up period was 13.5 months (range: 3-60). According to the available literature, the treatment of AAA in SVI is feasible and does not show an incremented morbidity compared to patients with a normal visceral configuration. This treatment seems to be effective also in case of endovascular treatment. AAA treatment in SVI should be performed (especially in elective settings) in high volume centers where it is possible to bring on collaboration across different surgical specialists.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic caused societal disruption in the United States and most of the world, affecting many aspects of life, including healthcare and health-related behaviors such as diet, food security, and physical activity. Communities with economic and health disparities may have been particularly affected. This study was undertaken to determine how conditions in the early pandemic (January, 2021-February, 2022) affected Latino patients of Mexican Ancestry at high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus who participated in El Banco por Salud biobank project in Tucson, Arizona.
    Methods: Baseline, prepandemic measurements were available in 17, 21, and 60 patients with normal hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes, respectively.
    Results: People with healthy HbA1c were significantly younger, less obese, and had higher HDL cholesterol. HbA1c was unaffected by the pandemic in any group. Triglycerides, total and HDL cholesterol levels fell in all groups during the pandemic. Physical activity levels in all groups were remarkably low, with most reporting no engagement in any voluntary physical activity. Engagement in physical activity or its enjoyment was lower in patients with diabetes and prediabetes than in younger, less obese patients. Major diet differences were between men and women and were present before the pandemic. Women consumed significantly more vegetables, fruit, and salad than men. The only pandemic-related change in diet was a drop in egg consumption, possibly explaining the fall in total cholesterol.
    Conclusion: Societal disruption during the COVID-19 pandemic had minimal effects on adverse health-related behaviors, cardiometabolic risk, or changes in glycemic control in a Latino community with diabetes and healthcare disparities in the Southwest US.
