A recent study conducted by researchers at AdventHealth Global Robotics Institute in Celebration, Florida, explores a novel technique called the Peritoneal Bladder Flap Bunching (PBFB) technique to reduce the risk of lymphoceles in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). The study evaluated 2267 patients who underwent RARP with PLND and found that while there was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of lymphoceles between the flap group and the non-flap group, none of the patients in the flap group developed symptomatic lymphoceles, compared to 2.2% of patients in the non-flap group. The researchers concluded that the PBFB technique shows promising short-term outcomes in reducing postoperative symptomatic lymphoceles. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study conducted in Tokyo, Japan compared two treatment methods for symptomatic hepatic cysts: endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage and percutaneous drainage combined with minocycline sclerotherapy. The study found that both methods were successful in achieving technical and clinical success without any reported adverse events. However, the endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage group had a higher median reduction rate of cyst diameter and a shorter hospital stay compared to the percutaneous drainage group. The study suggests that endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage is a safe and effective alternative for treating symptomatic hepatic cysts. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study conducted at IPGMER and SSKM Hospital in West Bengal, India, compared the effectiveness of povidone iodine instillation and octreotide treatment in managing lymphorrhea after kidney transplantation. Lymphorrhea is a minor complication that can develop into a lymphocele and prolong hospital stay. The study found that povidone iodine instillation resulted in a shorter duration of lymphorrhea, a lower incidence of lymphocele formation, and a shorter hospital stay compared to octreotide treatment and the control group. The researchers concluded that povidone iodine instillation is a successful treatment option for lymphatic leakage after kidney transplantation. [Extracted from the article]
