A conservative management common to reduce surgery-related risks, however watchful waiting can expose obstruction and strangulation. aim the present study was assess impact emergency surgery a large series with complicated groin identify independent risk factors for postoperative morbidity mortality. predictive performance prognostic scores has...
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a deep impact on emergency surgical services, with significant reduction of patients admitted into units world widely. Reliable figures this have not been produced yet.

Abstract Background Frailty assessment has acquired an increasing importance in recent years and it been demonstrated that this vulnerable profile predisposes elderly patients to a worse outcome after surgery. Therefore, becomes paramount perform accurate stratification of surgical risk undergoing emergency Study design 1024 older than 65 who required urgent procedures were prospectively recruited from 38 Italian centers participating the multicentric FRAILESEL (Frailty Emergency Surgery...
Abstract Introduction The concept of “weekend effect”, that is, substandard healthcare during weekends, has never been fully demonstrated, and the different outcomes emergency surgical patients admitted weekends may be due to conditions at admission and/or therapeutic approaches. Aim this international audit was identify any change pattern admissions treatments weekends. Furthermore, we aimed investigating impact COVID-19 pandemic on alleged effect”.

We report a case of inflammatory colitis after SARS-CoV-2 infection in patient with no additional co-morbidity who died within three weeks hospitalization. As it is becoming increasingly clear that can cause immunological alterations, we investigated the expression inhibitory checkpoint PD-1 and its ligand PD-L1 to explore potential role this axis break self-tolerance. The presence virus colon tissue was demonstrated by qRT-PCR immunohistochemical localization nucleocapsid protein....
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Despite advancements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, patient outcomes vary significantly across healthcare institutions. Textbook outcome (TO), composite metric representing an ideal postoperative course, has been proposed as standard for assessing the quality care CRC. However, its impact on remains underexplored, particularly diverse clinical settings. Objective: This study aims to...

There are several causes a mechanical left bowel obstructive but CRC accounts for approximately 50% cases and in 10-30% whom it presenting syndrome. In cases, colon involved. At present, range therapeutic alternatives management emergency conditions (primary resection vs. staged with applied self-expanding metallic stents) broad, whereas internationally validated clinical recommendations each condition still lacking.

Geriatric patients and their relative fragility with respect to younger represent a surgical dilemma for the general surgeon. This has led surgeons adopt tailored techniques strategies treat them. The rapid increase of this aged population given clinician chance push forward knowledge on subset challenge previous concepts; thus changing behaviour when treating
