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.

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.

University of Notre Dame, IN The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals1 dictates that rodent survival surgery be performed aseptically. Aseptic technique utilizes specific practices that minimize the contamination of the surgical site, including patient preparation, surgeon preparation, sterilization of instruments and other supplies, and the use of a clean and controlled environment. Presurgical planning,...

FAQs
Incision size is a controllable variable in miniature incision surgery research. By comparing procedures that differ in the amount of tissue opened, investigators can examine associated changes in inflammation, healing, pain, and recovery. This makes incision dimensions useful for studying how local tissue disruption relates to broader surgical responses.
Direct visualization lets surgeons or researchers monitor internal tissues while guiding slender instruments or specialized devices through the access points. This visual control supports targeted treatment and helps maintain a controlled approach to internal structures. In experimental work, consistent visualization and access can improve comparability between procedures and tissue responses.
Compared with conventional open surgery, miniature incision surgery limits the extent of tissue separation around the treatment site. The comparison is important because surrounding-tissue disruption can be examined alongside recovery-related measures such as inflammation, healing, pain, and recovery. Researchers can therefore study incision strategy as a determinant of surgical response.
A typical workflow begins by creating small openings, introducing a camera, slender instrument, or specialized device, and using direct visualization to reach the internal tissue of interest. The operator then performs the intended treatment through that access. Afterward, biological studies can assess tissue repair, organ function, or the response to surgery.
It provides a controlled way to investigate tissue repair, organ function, and responses to surgical intervention. Because access can be standardized while limiting surrounding disruption, researchers can compare how tissues respond under different incision conditions. These experiments help connect surgical technique with biological outcomes rather than examining treatment effects in isolation.
Studies may examine inflammation, healing, pain, and recovery, together with changes in tissue repair or organ function. These outcomes show how the access strategy influences responses to surgery. The resulting observations can support evaluation of safer procedures and guide development of approaches for clinical use.
