ABSTRACT
Background: Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) has still not replaced conventional laparoscopic surgery in many centers because of its special instruments requirements and training needs. In our Institution we introduced SILS procedures in a procedural stepwise manner, with progression to more difficult procedures only allowed if complete proficiency in low-complexity ones is achieved. Methods: We studied the evolution of performed SILS procedures in our Institution from the beginning of the program (mainly appendectomies, cholecystectomies, left adrenalectomies) and the results from these techniques. Results: Among 328 SILS procedures there were 148 appendectomies (24 by suprapubic access), 141 cholecystectomies, 32 left adrenalectomies, 6 diagnostic laparoscopies and 1 resection of Meckel’s diverticulum. The majority of appendectomies accounted for non-perforated appendicitis cases and there were no significant differences between transumbilical and suprapubic access groups. In cholecystectomies the majority of patients were elective cases and oral intake could be resumed within the 6 postoperative hours. In left adrenalectomies no conversion to open surgery was required and there were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. Conclusions: Procedural stepwise approach in SILS is a valid, feasible and safe option that can be applied at any institution starting a SILS program.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...
