Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) have been shown to improve metabolic comorbidities as well quality of life (QoL) in the obese population. The vast majority previous studies investigated effects bariatric surgery there is a dearth examining long-term QoL outcomes post surgery. 43 patients who underwent were prospectively assessed, using BAROS questionnaires quantify status pre-operatively, at 1 year 8 years. Total weight loss comorbidity resolution similar between...
Since the Coronavirus disease-19(COVID-19) pandemic, healthcare systems are reallocating their medical resources, with consequent narrowed access to elective surgery for benign conditions such as gallstone disease(GD). This survey represents an overview of current policies regarding surgical management patients GD during COVID-19 pandemic.A Web-based was conducted among 36 Hepato-Prancreato-Biliary surgeons from 14 Countries. Through a 17-item questionnaire, participants were asked about...
Duplications of the alimentary tract (ATD) are rare congenital anomalies often found early in life.They may occur anywhere intestinal but ileum is most frequently affected site.Clinical presentation ATD adults variable and because these lesions so infrequently they rarely suspected.In present report we describe a case ileal duplication 61-year-old patient with Crohn's disease.Despite various radiological investigations medical consultations, diagnosis was only made on surgical specimen.

The aim of this study was to determine the perioperative behavior C-reactive protein (CRP) in Crohn's disease (CD) patients undergoing elective ileo-cecal (IC) resection and identify association between CRP levels endoscopic recurrence at 1 year. Study hypothesis that changes are specific could detect subset with more aggressive pathopysiology. Seventy-five IC for CD were prospectively enrolled. Serial assessed: preoperative, postoperative day (POD1) 5 (POD5). patients' values compared...
Abstract Purpose Routine use of abdominal drain or prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis is no longer part current clinical practice in colorectal surgery. Nevertheless, patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (ICA), it may reduce perioperative contamination. Furthermore, cancer patients, surgery extensive dissection such as central vascular ligation and complete mesocolon excision D3 lymphadenectomy (altogether radical colectomy RRC) called...
Background . One-third of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients present perianal fistula. The gold standard in the diagnosis and treatment symptomatic (PAD) CD is exploration anal canal distal rectum under anesthesia (EUA). This procedure mainly conducted as a day case surgery. Unfortunately, it not always possible to proceed within ideal timing any delay may well represent relevant clinical issue. aim this study was evaluate feasibility outpatient fistulas patients. Methods All regular follow-up at...
We recently described metabolic nodal stage (mN) and response (mNR) of cancer the esophagus gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) using 18F-FDG PET-CT as new markers disease progression, recurrence, death. aimed validate our findings.Our validation cohort comprised all patients consecutive discovery cohort, staged before after NAC from 2014 2017. Multivariate binary logistic Cox regression were performed.Fifty-one 200 had FDG-avid nodes (25.5%; i.e., lack...
Midgut malrotation is an anomaly of fetal intestinal rotation. Its incidence in adults rare. A case midgut a 51-year-old man with complicated Crohn's disease the terminal ileum presented. Symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment are reviewed. Preoperative workup led to correct surgical planning that ultimately allowed successful laparoscopic resection.
Diaphragmatic and hiatus hernias can cause mild chronic symptoms or have an acute presentation with gastric volvulus obstruction. Elective emergency surgery is indicated in symptomatic patients nowadays generally performed laparoscopically.
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a safe and effective bariatric surgery procedure.Leaks along the staple line are serious complications of procedure can result in significant morbidity.Treatment depends on timing, site, clinical consequence leak.We describe case young, formerly obese woman who presented with chronic gastric fistula at esophagogastric junction after an LSG.Treatment this complication required multiple interventions by highly specialized team.Physicians'...
