OBJECTIVE: The present study aims to describe the feasibility and the postoperative results of groin hernia repair in liver transplant patients using a totally extra-peritoneal (TEP) repair approach.
METHODS: From May 2022 to March 2023, liver transplant patients with groin hernia underwent TEP groin hernia repair, by the single common senior experimented surgeon. Background information, intraoperative findings, postoperative complications, postoperative pain, health, and well-being were registered.
RESULTS: Thirteen TEP approach groin hernioplasties were performed in 10 patients, completing the procedure in all cases without the need for conversion either to open or transabdominal preperitoneal approaches. 70% of surgical explorations revealed multiple hernia defects: lateral hernias in all patients, medial defects in 62%, and femoral defects in 30.8%. Median hospital stay was 1 day [range (0.3)], with 30% treated as outpatients. Post-surgical complications occurred in 30% of cases: 1 hematoma and 2 seromas. Postoperative pain and physical functioning scored 100 (IQR 44) and 90 (IQR 15), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: TEP groin hernioplasty is safe and feasible for liver transplant patients, with low complication rates, short hospital stays, and a significant proportion treated as outpatients. The posterior approach allows comprehensive repair of myopectineal defects, crucial due to associated hernial defects.

To report our initial experience with robotic radical prostatectomy as an outpatient procedure.
Retrospective analysis of patients who underwent RRP as MAS (Major Ambulatory Surgery) at our center between March 2021 and May 2022. We collected baseline patient characteristics, intraoperative outcomes and postoperative data (need for unplanned medical care and complications at one month after surgery). Oncologic characteristics at disease diagnosis (PSA, staging, ISUP, MRI) and postoperative pathologic outcomes were collected.
We identified a total of 35 patients with an average age of 60,8 ± 6,88 years and a BMI of 27 ± 2,9 Kg/m2. All patients had a low anesthetic risk and 25.71% had undergone previous abdominal surgery. The surgical time was 151,66 ± 42,15 min and the average blood loss was 301,2 ± 184,38 mL. Two patients (5.7%) were admitted for one night and 7 patients (20%) consulted the emergency department in the following month, of which 3 (8.57%) were readmitted. We recorded one intraoperative complication, seven mild postoperative complications (Clavien I-II) and one severe complication (Clavien IIIb). The severe complication occurred on the eighth postoperative day and was not related to the procedure being ambulatory.
The absence of serious complications in the immediate postoperative period supports RRP in MAS as a safe technique for selected patients.

OBJECTIVE: Peyronie\'s disease produces penile curvature that leads, in certain cases, to difficulties in having satisfactory sexual relations. The objective of this study is to evaluate the functional and cost-effectiveness results obtained in the surgical treatment of penile curvature due to Peyronie\'s disease under local anesthesia, comparing them with those performed under a general-spinal anesthesia regimen.
METHODS: Two groups of patients undergoing corporoplasty are compared according to the type of anesthesia used. Group 1 consists of 32 patients who underwent major outpatient surgery and under local anesthesia from June 2016 to June 2019. Their data are collected prospectively. Group 2 consists of 30 patients who underwent surgery under general/spinal anesthesia with hospital admission, from January 2013 to December 2015, with their data collected retrospectively. Anesthetic and surgical procedure, postoperative functional results, degree of satisfaction and hospital costs between both groups are analyzed, considering p≤0.05 as statistical significance and analyzing the results with the SPSS 20.0 program.
RESULTS: Of the 32 patients included in group 1, none required admission for intra or postoperative complications. In both groups, an improvement of the PDQ-test was observed without statistically significant differences, with the degree of global satisfaction above 95% in both groups. There were also no differences in the appearance of complications secondary to the anesthetic procedure or the hospital regime. We observed differences in hospital costs, being 44% lower for the group performed with local anesthesia.
CONCLUSIONS: Surgical treatment of penile curvature under local anesthesia improves the cost-effectiveness ratio with the same quality of care, degree of satisfaction and postoperative functional results, maintaining a similar rate of intra/postoperative complications. For this reason, we consider that corporoplasty can be successfully performed under local anesthesia.

BACKGROUND: The increase in the prevalence of osteoporosis associated with ageing, and sports and traffic accidents, are responsible for the increase in ankle fractures. This fact emphasises the need to protocolise their care in order to provide greater clinical benefit to patients, and better cost-benefit ratios to the health system.
OBJECTIVE: At present, there is no common framework for implementation of protocols and internal circuits of the Spanish centres for ankle fractures by means of major outpatient surgery (MOS), which is the final objective of this position paper. For this, the clinical and economic evidence of MOS, the local environment and the strategies for its implementation are reviewed, related to ankle fractures.
UNASSIGNED: The results showed a better cost-benefit ratio in outpatients compared to traditional hospitalisation, with lower complications and readmission rates and therefore significant cost savings.
UNASSIGNED: General and specific barriers are reviewed, as well as strategies and circuits for proper implementation.
RESULTS: The results show lower complication and readmission rates together with significant cost savings. It entails a better cost-benefit ratio in outpatient care compared to traditional hospitalisation.
UNASSIGNED: The implementation of MOS contributes to improve the quality of care, and the satisfaction of both, patient and health care team, while optimising the utilisation of resources. Ankle fractures in patients selected for both the underlying pathology, anaesthetic risk, and the type of fracture can be operated satisfactorily under the MOS.
