Objective: To define "best possible" outcomes in total minimally invasive transthoracic esophagectomy (ttMIE). Background: TtMIE, performed by experts patients with low comorbidity, may serve as a benchmark procedure for esophagectomy. Patients and Methods: From cohort of 1057 ttMIE, over 5-year period 13 high-volume centers esophageal surgery, we selected study group 334 (31.6%) that fulfilled criteria comorbidity (American Society Anesthesiologists score ≤2, WHO/ECOG ≤1, age ≤65 years,...
Surgical resection with adequate lymphadenectomy is regarded the only curative option for gastric cancer. Regarding minimally invasive techniques, mainly Asian studies showed comparable oncological and short-term postoperative outcomes. The incidence of cancer lower in Western population patients often present more advanced stages disease. Therefore, reproducibility these results remains to be investigated.A randomized trial was performed thirteen hospitals Europe. Patients an indication...
Lesions of the upper digestive tract due to ingestion caustic agents still represent a major medical and surgical emergency worldwide. The work-up these patients is poorly defined no clear therapeutic guidelines are available. aim this study was provide an evidence-based international consensus on primary secondary prevention, diagnosis, staging, treatment life-threatening potentially disabling condition. An extensive literature search performed by panel experts under auspices World Society...
The aim of this study was to describe anastomotic techniques used for total minimally invasive transthoracic esophagectomy (ttMIE) and analyze the associated morbidity.ttMIE faces increasing application in surgical treatment esophageal cancer. For esophagogastric reconstruction, different are currently used, but their effect on postoperative leakage morbidity has not been investigated.Patients were selected from a basic dataset, collected during 5-year period 13 international high-volume...
The aim of this study was to identify patients' characteristics that may predict failure and removal the Linx sphincter augmentation device, report results 1-stage laparoscopic fundoplication.The device is a long-term magnetic implant developed as less disruptive more reproducible surgical option for patients with early-stage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Removal has been shown be feasible, but no procedure have reported yet.A review prospectively collected research database...
Background: Esophagectomy is a technically challenging procedure, associated with significant morbidity. The introduction of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) has reduced postoperative Objective: Although the short-term effect on complications increasingly being recognized, impact long-term survival remains unclear. This study aims to investigate association between following MIE and survival. Methods: Data were collected from EsoBenchmark Collaborative composed by 13 high-volume,...
A definitive diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) depends on endoscopic and/or pH-study criteria. However, high resolution manometry (HRM) can identify factors predicting GERD, such as ineffective esophageal motility (IEM), esophago-gastric junction contractile integral (EGJ-CI), evaluating esophagogastric (EGJ) type and straight leg raise (SLR) maneuver response. We aimed to build externally validate a manometric score (Milan Score) stratify the risk severity in patients...
Abstract The magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA) device has been proven safe and effective in controlling typical reflux symptoms esophageal acid exposure for up to 6-year follow-up. Longer term outcomes have not reported yet. A prospectively maintained database was reviewed assess long-term safety efficacy of the laparoscopic MSA procedure at a single referral center. Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease-Health Related Quality Life (GERD-HRQL), use proton-pump inhibitors (PPI), were compared...
Only a minority of patients with gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) are offered surgical option. This is mostly due to the fear potential side effects, variable success rate, and extreme alteration gastric anatomy current gold standard, laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. It has been reported that Toupet fundoplication (LTF) sphincter augmentation using magnetic device (LINX) can treat more physiologically lower incidence side-effects reoperation rate. We present first comparing quality...
Abstract With the development of newer meshes and approaches to hernia repair, it is currently difficult evaluate their performances while considering patients’ perspective. The aim study was assess clinical outcomes quality life consequences abdominal repairs performed in Italy using Phasix ST through analysis real-world data support choice new generation biosynthetic meshes. An observational, prospective, multicentre conducted 10 Italian centres from May 2015 February 2018 15 March 2019....
