BACKGROUND: Whilst there has been significant improvement in mortality outcomes after emergency laparotomy, there is little information on longer term outcomes in the year after discharge. The main aim of the study was to assess the impact that an emergency laparotomy has on patients' and employment and health status 1 year after surgery. METHODS: This study was a questionnaire study conducted in a single centre district general hospital of patients who had undergone an emergency laparotomy between October 2015 and December 2016...

BACKGROUND/AIM: Laparoscopic hepatectomy has become a common management strategy for liver tumors owing to its less invasive nature and enhanced visual perspective. Yet, its use in the caudate lobe poses challenges. This study evaluates the experiences of patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatic tumors in the caudate lobe and aims to propose strategies for performing such procedures. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of twelve patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resection at the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University...

INTRODUCTION: Early detection of severe complications may reduce morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hepatic resection. Therefore, we prospectively evaluated a panel of inflammatory blood markers for their value in predicting postoperative complications in patients undergoing liver surgery. METHODS: A total of 139 patients undergoing liver resections (45 wedge resections, 49 minor resections, and 45 major resections) were prospectively enrolled between August 2017 and December 2018...

PURPOSE: Fluorescence-based imaging has found application in several fields of elective surgery, but there is still a lack of evidence in the literature about its use in emergency setting. The present review critically summarizes currently available applications and limitations of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in abdominal emergencies including acute cholecystitis, mesenteric ischemia, and trauma surgery. METHODS: A systematic review was performed according to the PRISMA statement identifying articles about the use of ICG fluorescence in the management of the most common general surgery emergency...

PURPOSE: Only recently has the percentage of signet-ring cells (SRCs) been shown to affect the prognosis following gastric cancer surgery. It is uncertain whether the SRC percentage has a role in tumour biology or prognosis of gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma (GSRCC). For this research, we assessed the effect of the SRC percentage on the clinicopathological and prognostic characteristics of gastric cancer (GC) tumours and created and verified a prognostic nomogram to assess the overall survival (OS) of GSRCC patients...

INTRODUCTION: Survival for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) has been increasing over the years after the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, the role of metastasectomy for GIST is still controversial. Patients are currently treated with imatinib or sunitinib in case of imatinib failures as optimal medical therapy for metastatic GIST. METHODS: The Pubmed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched. Overall survival following liver resection ± tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment for metastatic GIST was compared to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors alone...

INTRODUCTION: Having performed anti-reflux surgery for thirty years, it was important to reexamine our patients in the long term to enlarge the body of evidence concerning classical and extraesophageal symptoms that are differently controlled by Nissen or Toupet fundoplication. OBJECTIVES: We report a cohort of 155 GERD patients who underwent fundoplication within a tailored approach between 1994 and 2000. Changes in the perioperative functional outcome, GERD symptoms, and quality of life are being analyzed 10 and 20 years after the operation...

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic/bariatric surgery is the only proven treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) with curative intent. However, in a number of patients, the surgery is not effective or they may experience a relapse. Those patients can be offered re-do bariatric surgery (RBS). PURPOSE: The study aimed to determine factors increasing the odds for T2D remission one year after RBS following primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. METHODS: A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 2010 and January 2020, which included 12 bariatric centers in Poland...

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to analyze pain after surgery with the use of self-fixated meshes, which are commonly used as an alternative for sutured mesh in open inguinal hernia repair. METHODS: This prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted from November 2018 to March 2021, with a follow-up duration of 12 months. Male patients, aged 18-85, and suitable for day case surgery, were included. The patients received the self-adhesive Adhesix™ mesh or the self-gripping Progrip™ mesh in open inguinal hernia surgery...

PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 1 (TREM-1) protein as a marker for serious infectious complications during laparoscopic colorectal surgery. METHODS: Sixty-four patients with colon or rectal cancer, who underwent an elective laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery from November 2018 to February 2020, were included in the analysis. Blood samples of the TREM-1 protein testing were collected four times from each patient: before and on three following postoperative days (PODs)...

BACKGROUND: Periarterial divestment is a surgical technique to approach borderline resectable (BR) or locally advanced (LA) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) with arterial involvement. There are no reports in the literature regarding the role of endoscopic ultrasound and elastography (EUS-EG) in exploring the integrity of Inoue's level III and its correlation with the periarterial divestment technique feasibility. Our research is aimed at exploring the role of EUS-EG in this scenario...

PURPOSE: This research examined opioid use, pain intensity, and pain management after primary unilateral inguinal hernia repair (PUIHR) at a single-center specialty hospital. METHODS: After research, ethics board approval, and informed consent, pain scores (0-10 numerical rating scale [NRS]) were obtained from survey-based questionnaires administered at the pre- and 3-day postoperative timepoints. Descriptive results are presented as frequency, mean, standard deviation, range, median, and interquartile ranges, as appropriate...

PURPOSE: Although not considered standard therapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is an encouraging alternative for selected patients with locally advanced colon cancer (LAC). The aim of this study was to compare 30-day postoperative outcomes between patients undergoing upfront surgery and those undergoing NAC for LAC. METHODS: Using the ACS-NSQIP data from 2016 to 2020, 11,498 patients with LAC were divided into those who underwent upfront colectomy (96.2%) and those who received NAC (3...

PURPOSE: Postoperative diarrhea (PD) remains one of the significant complications. Only a few studies focused on PD after minimally invasive surgery. We aimed to investigate PD after minimally invasive gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS: A total of 1476 consecutive patients with gastric cancer undergoing laparoscopic or robotic gastrectomy between 2009 and 2019 at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. PD was defined as continuous diarrhea for ≥ 2 days, positive stool culture, or positive clostridial antigen test...

INTRODUCTION: The mortality risk after appendicectomy in patients with liver cirrhosis is predicted to be higher than in the general population given the associated risk of perioperative bleeding, infections and liver decompensation. This population-based cohort study aimed to determine the 90-day mortality risk following emergency appendicectomy in patients with cirrhosis. METHODS: Adult patients undergoing emergency appendicectomy in England between January 2001 and December 2018 were identified from two linked primary and secondary electronic healthcare databases, the clinical practice research datalink and hospital episode statistics data...

BACKGROUND: The rates of unscheduled revision surgery (URS) after colorectal surgery and failure to rescue-surgical (FTR-s) are 2.4% and 11-17% respectively. The aim of this study was to evaluate the causes of URS lethality to reduce this rate after colorectal surgery. METHODS: From 2011 to 2021, 337 surgeons collected 547 URS. Type of procedure, time course, diagnostic and detection means, time to decision, time to complication(s), causes of URS, delay of URS, and death were recorded and allowed for multivariate systemic analysis of risk factors for death (FTR-s) after URS...
