To investigate if intrathecally administered morphine combined with a low-dose mode of total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) accelerates recovery after abdominal surgery as compared, to patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) combined with anaesthesia, based on volatile anaesthetics. ⋯ The TIVA per- and post-operative care was an advantage over PCA in most respects.

Pelvic lymph node dissection in early ovarian cancer: success of retrieval of lymph nodes by individual lymph node groups in respect to pelvic laterality.
To evaluate the differences in number of harvested retroperitoneal pelvic lymph nodes by specific lymph node regions in respect to pelvic laterality. ⋯ There is a right and left prevalence of retrieved LN by individual LN regions in the pelvis that could be influenced by asymmetry in right-left pelvic LN distribution. However, we did not find any evidence that the observed imbalance is, on average, directed toward either side of the pelvis.
