Abstract Background Bariatric surgery is the most long-term effective treatment option for severe obesity. The role of gut microbiome (GM) in either development obesity or response to management strategies has been a matter debate. This study aims compare impact two popular procedures, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (GB), on metabolic syndrome parameters bacterial systemic immuno-inflammatory response. Methods A prospective observational enrolled 24 patients with...
Abstract Background There are data on the safety of cancer surgery and efficacy preventive strategies prevention postoperative symptomatic COVID-19 in these patients. But there is little such for any elective surgery. The main objectives this study were to examine bariatric (BS) during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic determine perioperative protective rates. Methods We conducted an international cohort all-cause COVID-19-specific 30-day morbidity mortality BS performed between...
Abstract Background There is a paucity of data comparing 30-day morbidity and mortality sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), one anastomosis (OAGB). This study aimed to compare the safety SG, RYGB, OAGB in propensity score-matched cohorts. Materials methods analysis utilised collected from GENEVA which was multicentre observational cohort bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) 185 centres across 42 countries between 01/05/2022 31/10/2020 during Coronavirus Disease-2019...
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare neoplastic mesenchymal tumor, more frequently found in the uterus, although it can occur different organs. Hepatic PEComa extremely rare, with only few cases described literature. We present case report of 33-year-old female patient history macroprolactinoma. She was initially referred to our Department due 9-mm hepatic nodule incidentally diagnosed an abdominal ultrasound 2018. asymptomatic. Follow-up showed growth from 9 mm 16 2019 and...
Obesity is associated with insulin resistance (IR) development, a risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D). How mitochondrial bioenergetics, in adipose tissue (AT), differs according to distinct metabolic profiles (i.e. sensitive (IS), IR normoglycaemic (IR-NG), pre-diabetes (PD) and T2D) still poorly understood. The purpose of this study was evaluate compare bioenergetics energy substrate preference by omental AT (OAT) subcutaneous (SAT) from subjects obesity (OB, n = 40) at stages....
Low-grade inflammation is closely linked to obesity and obesity-related comorbidities; therefore, immune cells have become an important topic in research. Here, we performed a deep phenotypic characterization of circulating T people with obesity, using flow cytometry. Forty-one individuals (OB) clinical criteria for bariatric surgery were enrolled this study. We identified quantified 44 different cell subsets assessed their activation status the expression immune-checkpoint molecules,...
Abstract Background Surgery is the primary treatment that can offer potential cure for gastric cancer, but associated with significant risks. Identifying optimal surgical approaches should be based on comparing outcomes from well designed trials. Currently, trials report different outcomes, making synthesis of evidence difficult. To address this, aim this study was to develop a core outcome set (COS)—a standardized group important key international stakeholders—that reported by future in...

Abstract Background Age ≥ 65 years is regarded as a relative contraindication for bariatric surgery. Advanced age also recognised risk factor adverse outcomes with Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) which continues to wreak havoc on global populations. This study aimed assess the safety of surgery (BS) in this particular group during COVID-19 pandemic comparison younger cohort. Methods We conducted prospective international patients who underwent BS between 1/05/2020 and 31/10/2020....
It has been suggested that patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of > 60 kg/m2 should be offered expedited Bariatric Surgery (BS) during the Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The main objective this study was to assess safety approach. We conducted global who underwent BS between 1/05/2020 and 31/10/2020. Patients were divided into three groups according their preoperative BMI - Group I (BMI<50 kg/m2), II (BMI 50–60 III (BMI>60 kg/m2). effect on 30-day morbidity mortality,...
Femoral hernias comprise a small proportion of all groin hernias. They are more common in women and have high rate incarceration strangulation, leading to emergency repair. A 61-year-old female patient was admitted the department complaining 2-day painful lump right groin, that had become intense last 24 hours. Physical examination suggested presence strangulated femoral hernia, underwent surgical Intraoperatively, fallopian tube observed hernia sac. Since there were no signs ischemia,...
We report the case of a man in his 40s who presented to our emergency department with history fever and red, swollen painful neck mass. Shortly following birth, congenital oesophageal atresia had been managed surgically colonic interposition graft. Contrast CT revealed filling distention colic stump content stasis infection. The patient received intravenous piperacillin/tazobactam parenteral nutrition. One week later, an upper digestive endoscopy was performed revealing inflammatory-looking...

Retrograde intussusception is a rare complication of gastric bypass. It commonly located in the common limb close to jejunojejunostomy. The management such condition dictates outcome patient either immediate emergency setting or long-term bariatric surgery’s expected results. We present case retrograde 3 years after bypass which warranted an enterectomy, followed by anastomotic fistula. adequate these cases leads recovery without compromising effect surgery future.
Boerhaave syndrome or spontaneous rupture of the esophagus wall is a rare life-threatening condition. It more common in male gender and due to very swift rise intraluminal pressure during vomiting. The patient usually presents with chest pain after In some cases, there subcutaneous emphysema neck upper chest. Due its rarity, diagnosis often not straightforward.
