Abstract

Visceral surgery has benefited from several significant therapeutical improvements in 2005. They involve more specifically endocrine surgery, obesity, ovarian cancer, rectocele and cystic pancreatic neoplasia. Minimal invasive surgery is increasingly used, for example in endocrine conditions and obesity treatment. New techniques also emerge, such as electrical gastric stimulation for obesity or Stapled Trans Anal Rectal Resection (STARR) for anterior rectocele. Accurate diagnosis criteria allow better management of cystic pancreatic neoplasia, especially to choose the best treatment of this condition.
