Abstract Background Anastomotic leakage of pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) remains the single most important source morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The primary aim this randomized clinical trial comparing PG with PJ PD was to test hypothesis that invaginated would result in a lower rate and severity pancreatic fistula. Methods Patients undergoing were receive either duct-to-duct or double-layer PG. endpoint fistula, using definition International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula....
Abstract Background Patients with rectal cancer often experience adverse effects on urinary, sexual, and digestive functions. Despite recognised impacts available treatments, they are not fully integrated into follow-up protocols, thereby hindering appropriate interventions. The aim of the study was to discern activities conducted in our routine clinical practice outside trials. Methods This multicentre, retrospective cohort included consecutive patients undergoing surgery between January...
Sacral neuromodulation might be effective to palliate low anterior resection syndrome after rectal cancer surgery, but robust evidence is not available.
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Obesity is usually considered a risk factor for surgical complications. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has replaced open as the standard operation adrenal tumors. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> To compare safety of laparoscopic to treat tumors in obese versus nonobese patients. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> This observational cohort study analyzed consecutive patients who underwent with lateral transperitoneal...
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether extended complete mesocolic excision (e-CME) for sigmoid colon cancer improves oncological outcomes without compromising morbidity or functional results. Background: In surgery the and upper rectum, s-CME removes lymphofatty tissue surrounding inferior mesenteric artery (IMA), but not portion vein that does run parallel IMA. Evidence about safety efficacy extending CME include is lacking. Methods: This single-blind randomized patients...
Although accidental ingestion of foreign bodies is a common problem in the general population, most objects pass through entire digestive tract without incidents (1). However, 1% cases, it causes complications such as acute abdomen due to intestinal perforation (2). In some can cause severe and even death; USA, 1,500 people die annually from body (3).
New techniques are being developed to improve the results of laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. This paper analyzes learning curves transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) and robot-assisted in our colorectal department. We analyzed retrospectively data from patients undergoing curative elective cancer ≤12 cm anal verge. excluded extended surgeries. used cumulative sum (CUSUM) curve analysis identify inflection points. Between 2015 2021, 588 underwent at center: 67 taTME 79 To...
Male urethral injury during rectal cancer surgery is rare but significant. Scant information available about the distances between rectourethral space and neighboring structures. The aim of this study to describe anatomical relations male urethra. This three-pronged included cadaveric dissection, retrospective MRI analysis, clinical cases. Measurements R-Mu distance (shortest rectum membranous urethra), R-Am (distance from anterior wall anal margin nearest canal-rectum axis angle. analyzed...
