Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) as a stand alone procedure for the surgical management of morbid obesity represents 2% of the bariatric operations in the United States of America. In the USA, this technique was developed as a modification of the biliopancreatic diversion in 1988; and in the United Kingdom, the concept of LSG evolved as a modification of the Magenstrasse and Mill procedure. In the latter, SG is essentially a completion of the Magenstrasse distally by completely separating the greater curvature and antrum.
Nowadays, hysterectomy is, after cesarean section, the most common surgical intervention performed in fertile women. Laparoscopic hysterectomy remains a safe and reproducible intervention that should be in any’s gynecologists therapeutic armamentarium.
Radical cystectomy remains the gold standard for muscle invasive bladder cancer and high-risk superficial tumors resistant to intravesical treatment. Nevertheless, the laparoscopic cystoprostatectomy has rarely been well codified and illustrated.

The original fundoplication technique as described by Rudolf Nissen in 1955 consisted in wrapping the fundus of the stomach around the esophagus, while leaving the gastrosplenic vessels and the diaphragmatic hiatus intact. Additionally, the vagus nerves were little or not preserved.
The basic principles of a fundoplication are:
- tension-free repositioning of the gastroesophageal junction (along with 2 cm of lower esophagus in a subphrenic position);
- use the gastric fundus to create the fundoplication;
- make sure that the resistance generated by the anti-reflux mechanism matches the preoperative assessment of esophageal peristalsis.
The description of the 4DDOME® inguinal hernia repair covers all aspects of the surgical procedure used for the management of inguinal hernia.
Operating room set up, position of patient and equipment, instruments used are thoroughly described. The technical key steps of the surgical procedure are presented in a step by step way: local anesthesia, dissection of indirect inguinal hernia, repair: 4DDOME® technique, 4DDOME® placement, anterior mesh placement, end of procedure, other types of hernias.
Consequently, this operating technique is well standardized for the management of this condition.
