Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of two or three concomitant laparoscopic procedures in the same patient in one anesthesia session. Patients and Methods: Data were reviewed for 32 patients for whom two or three concomitant laparoscopic surgeries at our institution were considered. Preoperative details, port position, surgical time, blood loss, complications, hospital stay, and postoperative recovery were analyzed. Results: Thirty-two patients underwent two concomitant laparoscopic procedures and one patient three procedures. Surgical time was increased by 6 minutes because of the repositioning time of the patients. There were no complications during all procedures, and hospital stay was not increased, being limited only by the first procedure. Conclusion: Planned laparoscopic surgery for two or three urologic malignancies is feasible in one anesthesia session, thereby reducing cost and overall hospital stay for the patient without any increased risk of perioperative morbidity. The decision to continue with the second or the third procedures depends on the successful conclusion of the former procedures in a reasonable time and without any complications.
