Smart Lithotripsy: Lasers, Energy Sources and Efficiency

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To examine the evidence on contemporary lasers and provide a practical framework for platform selection, parameter optimization, and thermal safety based on the principles of smart lithotripsy. RECENT FINDINGS: Holmium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Ho:YAG) remains...

Cardiopulmonary Support During Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Arrhythmias: Long-Term Results from a Single-Center Experience

Extracorporeal membranes oxygenation (ECMO) has been proposed as a useful tool to support ablation of unstable ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). The aim of this study is to assess the clinical outcome of cardiopulmonary support of VAs catheter ablation during a long-term follow-up....

Superficial Peritoneal Endometriosis Beyond Surgical Diagnosis: A Narrative Review of Emerging Functional and Molecular Perspectives

Background and Objectives: Superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE) remains one of the most difficult endometriosis phenotypes to diagnose non-invasively, because lesions are frequently small, multifocal, and poorly detectable using conventional imaging. Diagnostic laparoscopy...
