2025
Robot-assisted natural orifice specimen extraction surgery is a minimally invasive technique that combines robotic precision with natural orifice specimen extraction. A 67-year-old patient successfully underwent the procedure in 290 min, with minimal bleeding and no residual cancer. This approach minimized abdominal trauma, reduced complications, and enabled a quick recovery.

We introduced an optimized surgical approach for small incision lenticule extraction, termed the Ye's Swing Technique. This technique enables the surgeon to perform lenticule separation and extraction more easily while minimizing the risk of incision-edge tears and lenticule fragmentation. The results of this study proved its safety and efficacy.

Medial canthopexy allows correction of the position and fixation of the medial canthal tendon. Due to the technical difficulties of this procedure, there is a need for a detailed protocol for educational purposes. Here, we describe a standardized reproducible technique for bilateral medial transnasal canthopexy by an orbitonasal approach.

FAQs
Location, length, and direction are selected together rather than independently. The choice reflects the relevant anatomy and the intended procedure, helping the surgeon reach the tumor, biopsy site, or field while limiting unnecessary injury. This planning also affects whether viable structures can be preserved and whether the resulting wound can be closed effectively.
Scalpels and electrosurgical devices support different parts of tissue division and bleeding control within the operative field. The selected instrument is therefore part of the technique, not merely a matter of access. Matching the device to the planned incision can help preserve viable structures and produce tissue suitable for subsequent specimen handling.
Careful tissue handling matters after the opening is created because the specimen must remain suitable for histological and molecular analysis. Avoiding unnecessary damage helps preserve specimen integrity while also supporting the surgeon’s ability to complete the procedure and close the wound. In cancer research, this links operative technique with the quality of downstream tissue evaluation.
A consistent workflow begins with selecting the incision site, length, and direction according to anatomy and the intended operation. The surgeon then uses a scalpel or electrosurgical device to divide tissue, controls bleeding, and protects viable structures during access. After tumor or biopsy material is obtained, careful handling and wound closure support completion of the operative process.
In cancer research, the technique supports both tumor excision and biopsy-based sampling. The resulting specimens can be collected for histological and molecular analysis, allowing investigators to study material obtained from a defined surgical field. Consistent procedures also help researchers evaluate surgical outcomes, healing, specimen integrity, and the effects associated with treatment.
Researchers can assess more than whether access was achieved. The approach provides a basis for evaluating specimen integrity, wound closure, healing, and surgical outcomes, while the collected tissue supports analysis of treatment effects. These measures connect the technical details of an incision with both immediate operative performance and the broader goals of cancer research.
