To assess potentially modifiable perioperative risk factors for anastomotic leakage in adult patients undergoing colorectal surgery.Colorectal (CAL) is the single most important denominator of postoperative outcome after surgery. lower CAL, current research focused on association factors, both surgical and anesthesiological.A consecutive series surgery with primary anastomosis was enrolled from January 2016 to December 2018. Fourteen hospitals Europe Australia prospectively collected data by...
On February 20, 2020, a severe case of pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 was diagnosed in northern Italy (Lombardy). Some studies have identified obesity as risk factor for disease patients with COVID-19. The purpose this study investigate the incidence infection and its severity who undergone bariatric surgery.During lockdown period (until May 2020), we contacted operated by phone social networks (e.g., Facebook) maintain constant contact them; addition, gave dedicated number at which call us...
Bezoars are an uncommon cause of mechanical intestinal occlusion. There four different kinds bezoars: phytobezoars, made vegetables and fibers; trichobezoars, resulting from the ingestion hair frequently expression psychiatric disorders; lactobezoars, which formed milk curd; pharmacobezoars, caused by drugs medications. Symptoms classically indistinguishable one another more common causes occlusion, so it can be difficult to establish a correct diagnosis in order apply treatment. We present...
A direct correlation between number of lymph nodes retrieved and evaluated after a colectomy for colorectal cancer survival the patient has been reported, consensus guidelines recommend to assess at least 12 adequate staging. Many factors (i.e., patients' tumour characteristics, surgeon, pathologist) may influence evaluation presence neoplastic disease in as well total examined. Preoperative endoscopic tattooing mark site recently suggested facilitate retrieval specimens. The aim this study...
Abstract Background Although it is known that excessive intraoperative fluid and vasopressor agents are detrimental for anastomotic healing, optimal anesthesiology protocols colorectal surgery currently lacking. Objective To scrutinize the current hemodynamic practice use their relation to leakage. Design A secondary analysis of a previously published prospective observational study: LekCheck study. Study setting Adult patients undergoing resection with creation primary anastomosis. Outcome...
Background: Patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) often present nonspecific symptoms such as major depressive disorder and psychosis. Calcium plays a role in the pathogenesis of psychiatric by determining changes monoamine metabolism central nervous system, thereby modifying neurotransmission resulting mood cognitive alterations. Case series: This report presents case series 3 patients; 70-year-old, 78 year- old 94 year-old women PHPT severe depression its response to...
Acute appendicitis remains the most common surgical emergency. Laparoscopy has gained increasing favor as a method of both investigating right iliac fossa pain and treating finding appendicitis. A question arises: what to do with an apparent healthy appendix discovered during laparoscopic surgery for other pathology. We present case unilateral hydroureteronephrosis complicated rupture renal pelvis, due gangrenous abscess iliopsoas muscle periappendicular inflammation in 67-year-old woman,...
Background The optimal surgical approach to right colon cancer is still under debate. aim of the present study was compare short‐ and long‐term outcomes laparoscopic transverse‐incision open approaches hemicolectomy for cancer. Methods Data on 99 adult patients with right‐side undergoing either or at two different university hospitals, between January 2013 December 2016, were retrospectively reviewed. concerning patients’ characteristics, operative details post‐operative recovery retrieved...
Background: Most of the evidence for enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) in colorectal surgery relies on nonrandomized studies with control groups either historical or operated at different facilities. The aim this study was to investigate ERP coeval admitted wards same hospital. Materials and Methods: A prospective cohort consecutive patients (n = 100) undergoing elective laparoscopic resection completing a standardized (ERP group) compared traditional perioperative care period institution...
In the field of abdominal wall hernias, several innovative procedures have been developed, including extended/enhanced-view totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) hernia repair technique. Initially introduced for laparoscopic by J. Daes, it was subsequently applied to ventral (VHR) and incisional (IVHR) I. Belyansky et al. This article presents midterm experience outcomes our center's with endoscopic technique based on principles eTEP during IVHR VHR.
Purpose: Peritoneal metastases confer the worst survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.Current management options are limited; treatment resistance and disease progression common.The development of organoids as a pre-clinical model has raised possibility performing throughput drug screening to evaluate tumour sensitivities drugs.In this multi-centre, prospective exploratory study, we aim feasibility novel organoid based platform integrate genomic functional deliver...
