ALES Annual Report (2020)

Greetings from Dr. Abe Fingerhut, Dr. Minhua Zheng and Editorial Office of Annals of Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Surgery (ALES)!

In 2020, with joint effort and support from all contributors, ALES made steady progress with publication of 45 articles, authors mostly from USA. According to the Google Analytics, ALES enjoyed an increasing number of pageviews (all together 236,082 and visitors about 137,626 worldwide, mainly from USA). Eight special series were published. For more details, please check at the following report.

Hiatal Hernia

The current management of a hiatal hernia varies widely across practices, and finding a clear consensus continues to prove difficult. Surgical specialty, surgeon-specific training, and the variety of ways a hiatal hernia may present are among the various factors that cause confusion. This text was created to cover all aspects of the management of hiatal hernias by experts in the field of esophageal diseases.

Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery

Present series includes all recognised available standard techniques and their modifications in bariatric surgery starting from gastric banding to more complex procedures like duodenal switch. Direct issues related to bariatric surgery like enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and weight regain after surgery were also included. We have a special chapter on metabolic effects of bariatric surgery on type 2 diabetes and all effects were discussed in details. Andominal wall surgery in bariatric patients also discussed in details by Morales Conde in this special series.

Enhanced Recovery After Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

This series on “Enhanced Recovery After Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery” is edited by Dr. Corrado Pedrazzani, from Department of Surgery and Oncology, Unit of General and Hepatobiliary Surgery, Verona University Hospital Trust, Verona, Italy.

Advances in Robotic Surgery

It is an extraordinary pleasure to present this series on advances in robotic minimally invasive surgery. The new millennium heralded the introduction of surgical robotics with the US Food and Drug Administration approval of the DaVinci robot in 2000. There is no doubt surgical robotics or perhaps more precisely computer assisted telemanipulation surgery is here to stay. With that, will come the second era of novel instrumentation, advances in robotic surgery from a wide variety of sources now that the surgical beachhead has been established.

Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision (taTME)

In this series, we have some of the best minimally invasive colorectal surgeons in the world contributing literature reviews, personal experiences and presenting clinical data related to transanal TME surgery. We hope that this body of work will help clarify the history, current place, and future direction of this specialised technique.

Right Colectomy 2.0

Right colectomy has been considered one of the most standardized and simple to perform surgical intervention among colorectal surgeons for years. Is it still true in the new millennium? We are properly in the new era of minimally invasive surgery and new technologies follow each other day after day. These new inputs necessarily involve colorectal surgery and above all minimally invasive colorectal surgery. Thus, we focused the special series on the role of these new evidences on performing a right colectomy.

Immunologic Implications of Minimal Invasive Surgery (Ongoing)

This special series on “Immunologic Implications of Minimal Invasive Surgery” is edited by Dr. Philipp Lingohr and Dr. Jonas Dohmen from University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany. This special series aims to integrate the benefits of laparoscopy detected in experimental research into clinical practice.

Minimally Invasive Spleen Surgery

Annals of Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Surgery (ALES), is dedicating this focused series to “Minimally Invasive Spleen Surgery”, with outstanding experts contributing with their experience and review of the latest news from the scientific literature. With the present focused series, ALES readers will have the opportunity to update their knowledge on the spleen surgery performed by a minimally invasive approach.
