access (SARA) technique with the da Vinci Single-Port (SP) robotic platform. Between October 2022 and January 2023, 18 patients underwent surgery using the SARA technique for renal cancer, urothelial cancer, or ureteral stenosis. Perioperative variables were prospectively collected and outcomes were assessed. With the patient in a supine position, a 3-cm incision is made at the McBurney point

from this origin; and (3) the length of the appendix.” – Rosen’s.We suggest you take a look at the figure in Rosen’s to help explain why “Mcburney’s point” is not where pain from appendicitis is always found!“In fact, only 40% of patients have the base of their appendix within 3m of McBurney’s point, with 36% of patients having the base more than 5m away.” – These patients can present with pain : Increased abdominal pain in the supine patient as the provider internally and externally rotates the right leg as it is flexed at the hipSensitivity: 8Specificity: 944) McBurney’s point tenderness has a low correlation with appendiceal location and is not highly sensitive for appendicitis, tenderness at this location does have a modest predictive value for appendicitis.5) “A genitourinary examination

that was initially diffuse but is now localised to the right lower quadrant. She has no appetite and is nauseated but hasn’t vomited. She has no other symptoms. On physical exam, she’s tender at McBurney’s point with no peritoneal signs. She’s stable and afebrile with a bit of a white count at 13.Pro-tip: If you want to really please your consultant, start with a strong headline, present a (suspected) diagnosis

degrees and has tenderness localized to McBurney’s point. Labs are notable for a white blood cell count of 14,500 cells/uL. What is the most appropriate next step in management? 1. Order abdominal ultrasound 2. Order a complete respiratory viral panel to further evaluate the patient’s sniffles 3. Emergent surgery 4. Obtain further history, since abdominal pain could be secondary to surreptitious

the uterus.Clinical signs may be less distinct.Peritoneal signs may be absent in pregnancy, as the uterus can lift the abdominal wall away from the area of inflammation.Note the changing positions of the intra-abdominal contents as the pregnancy progresses. The appendix is located at McBurney's point in patients in the first trimester but then moves upward and laterally towards the gallbladder. The bowel can

occurred. We report a patient with HPVG, appendicitis and intestinal necrosis was reported in the current study. The patient was given frequent monitoring and had been conducted operation in time. An 86-year-old female with appendicitis complicated by HPVG was reported in the present study. Abdominal examination revealed rebound tenderness at the McBurney's point. Moreover, abdominal computed tomography

. Trocars to penetrate abdominal wall by blind puncture have been used. Here, we report on the abdominal wall puncture technique, and compare the possible complications and outcomes with traditional mini-laparotomy. We use a 5mm incision at the inverse McBurney point. The abdominal wall on both sides of the incision point is lifted with two towel clips prior to puncture to create a potential gap between

. Both may be different sides of the same coin and are possibly expressions of segmental phenomena as described by Head. McBurney's point, a landmark area of maximum pain in acute appendicitis, is possibly a trigger point within a Head zone. Differentiating acute appendicitis from acute ACNES is extremely difficult, but imaging and observation may aid in the diagnostic process.

appendectomy for acute appendicitis on McBurney's point, aiming to perform an easier and quicker procedure while limiting the trauma to the abdominal wall by obtaining the advantages of both laparoscopic and open techniques. We retrospectively evaluated the results of 24 patients on whom we had performed hybrid appendectomy with an optical trocar on McBurney's point for acute appendicitis in 1 year in terms of demographics, operative time, complications, hospital stay and cosmetic results. Twenty-one of the patients underwent hybrid appendectomy with a one-optic trocar on McBurney's point. The mean operative time was 21.4 ±6.2 min. We did not encounter any postoperative complications in any of the patients. The median hospital stay was 1.2 ±1.0 days. The postoperative scar was minimal. This technique is defined

. Patients undergoing TLA were matched with patients undergoing CLA between February 2015 and November 2015 at the same institution. Thirty-two patients underwent TLA with a needle grasper. The appendix was secured by a percutaneous organ-holding device (needle grasper), then removed through a puncture at McBurney's point. Another 38 patients underwent CLA. Patient demographics, operative details

. The needle grasper was inserted at the right under the abdominal quadrant (McBurney point) without an incision to hang and manipulate the appendix. The mean age was 25.19 ±8.464 years; the mean body mass index (BMI) was 23.50 ±3.246 kg/m(2). ASA scores were 1 and 2. The operations were completed without any additional trocar in 34 patients. The mean operation time was 57.03 ±3.814 min. There were and skeletonized successfully in TPLA. Inserting a needle grasper into the abdominal cavity at the McBurney point to manipulate the appendix helps and does not leave a visible scar.

Once it ruptures, a lot of times, the patient feels better. For awhile.Wow. You had a close shave. I'm glad you're OK. :oAnd it really says something about MJD's "work" that you'd consider a hallucination involving it a sign of a major medical emergency worse than
