Abstract Background Severe complicated intra-abdominal sepsis (SCIAS) has an increasing incidence with mortality rates over 80% in some settings. Mortality typically results from disruption of the gastrointestinal tract, progressive and self-perpetuating bio-mediator generation, systemic inflammation, multiple organ failure. A further therapeutic option may be open abdomen (OA) management negative peritoneal pressure therapy (NPPT) to remove inflammatory ascites attenuate damage SCIAS,...
Abstract Background Laparoscopic procedures have nowadays become the gold standard in multiple abdominal diseases, but emergency setting, especially major surgery, laparoscopy still represents an obstacle for most surgeons. This multicentric study aims to define surgical approach resective surgery left colonic perforation peritonitis, determine factors influencing choice between MIS and open identify associated with laparotomic conversion. Methods Retrospective data from 516 patients treated...
Mild acute biliary pancreatitis (MABP) presents significant clinical and economic challenges due to its potential for relapse. Current guidelines advocate early cholecystectomy (EC) during the same hospital admission prevent recurrent (RAP). Despite these recommendations, implementation in practice varies, highlighting need reliable accessible predictive tools. The MINERVA study aims develop validate a machine learning (ML) model predict risk of RAP (at 30, 60, 90 days, at 1-year) MABP...
Abstract Background Intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) are common and severe surgical emergencies associated with high morbidity mortality. In recent years, there has been a worldwide increase in antimicrobial resistance intra-abdominal infections, responsible for significant mortality rates. To improve the quality of treatment, it is crucial to understand underlying local epidemiology, clinical implications, proper management resistance, both community- hospital-acquired infections. The IRIS...
Abstract Background This multicentre case–control study aimed to identify risk factors associated with non-operative treatment failure for patients CT scan Hinchey Ib-IIb and WSES Ib-IIa diverticular abscesses. Methods included a cohort of adult experiencing their first episode CT-diagnosed abscess, all whom underwent initial comprising either antibiotics alone or in combination percutaneous drainage. The was stratified based on the outcome treatment, specifically identifying those who...
Background and Objectives: Therapeutic management of patients with complicated acute diverticulitis remains debatable. The primary objective this study is to identify predictive factors for the failure conservative treatment Hinchey IIa IIb diverticular abscesses. Materials Methods: This a retrospective cohort that included hospitalized from 1 January 2014 31 December 2022 at Emergency Surgery Department Cagliari University Hospital (Italy), diagnosed by grade collected variables patient's...
Abstract Background Several reports demonstrated a strong association between the level of adherence to protocol and improved clinical outcomes after surgery. However, it is difficult obtain full into practice has still not been identified threshold beyond which functional results can be reached. Methods The ERCOLE (ERas COLorectal Endoscopic surgery) study was as cohort, prospective, multi-centre national evaluating ERAS items minimally invasive colorectal primary endpoint associate...
