Anti-reflux surgery (ARS) is an efficient treatment option for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Despite growing evidence of the efficacy and safety of ARS, medications including proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) remain the most commonly administered treatments for GERD. Meanwhile, ARS can be an effective treatment option for patients who need medications continuously or for those who are refractory to PPI treatment, if proper candidates are selected. However, in practice, ARS is often regarded as a last resort for patients who are unresponsive to PPIs...

INTRODUCTION: The debate continues as to whether laparoscopic total Nissen (LNF) versus partial posterior Toupet fundoplication (LTF) leads to better outcomes in the surgical treatment of axial hiatal hernia with gastroesophageal reflux disease. In the most recent meta-analysis including 13 RCTs with 1564 patients, no significant difference was found between the two procedures in terms of perioperative complications and recurrent reflux rates. Further comparative analyses are urgently needed...

SUMMARY: Dumping syndrome is a rare but potentially serious condition that causes inappropriate postprandial hyperinsulinemia leading to hypoglycemia in children following gastrointestinal surgeries. While dietary modifications are often the first line of treatment, severe cases may require pharmacological intervention to prevent severe hypoglycemia. We present a case of successful treatment of dumping syndrome with diazoxide. A 2-month-old infant with left hypoplastic heart syndrome who underwent single ventricle palliation pathway and developed feeding intolerance that required Nissen fundoplication...

PURPOSE: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is characterized by coronal scoliosis and often a sagittal hypokyphosis. The effect of bracing on the sagittal profile is not well understood. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of night-time bracing on the sagittal profile in patients with AIS. METHODS: We retrospectively included AIS patients with a main curve of 25-45° treated with a night-time brace in our institution between 2005 and 2018. Patients with estimated growth potential based on either Risser stage, hand X-rays, or menarchal status were included...

BACKGROUND: The pathophysiological and clinical value of performing High-Resolution Manometry (HRM) after laparoscopic fundoplication (LF) for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is still unclear and debated. OBJECTIVE: We sought to establish the HRM parameters indicative of functioning fundoplications, and whether HRM could distinguish them from tight or defective ones. METHODS: The study involved patients with GERD who underwent laparoscopic Nissen (LN) or Toupet (LT) fundoplication between 2010 and 2022...

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair (LHHR) is a complex operation requiring advanced surgical training. Surgical simulation offers a potential solution for learning complex operations without the need for high surgical volume. Our goal is to develop a virtual reality (VR) simulator for LHHR; however, data supporting task-specific metrics for this procedure are lacking. The purpose of this study was to develop and assess validity and reliability evidence of task-specific metrics for the fundoplication phase of LHHR...

BACKGROUND: As total joint arthroplasty (TJA) moves to the outpatient setting, it is becoming clear that postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a potential impediment to same-day discharge. Although risk factors for POUR have been widely studied, the lack of their clinical utility warrants investigation of specific preoperative factors that can assist in surgical planning and patient optimization. The purpose of the current study was to determine whether preoperative symptom surveys and bladder scanning are useful tools in identifying POUR risk...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a five-year survival rate of less than 10% due to its late diagnosis, rapid metastasis, and chemotherapeutic resistance. For a small proportion (10-20%) of early-stage patients however, surgical resection of the pancreatic tumor offers the best chance for survival but the effect of surgery on disease dissemination is unknown. The primary objective of this study was to characterize cellular and acellular blood-based analytes in portal and peripheral blood before pancreatic manipulation, during tumor dissection and immediately after surgical resection to determine the effects of the surgery...

Intestinal malrotation is typically encountered in the first year of life and is rarely seen in adult populations. Herein, we present the case of a 48-year-old woman with a surgical history of laparoscopic Nissen-sleeve gastrectomy before 11 months who was referred to the general surgery service after presenting to the emergency department with acute epigastric abdominal pain for one-day duration. Radiography and a computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen revealed a large pneumoperitoneum. Subsequently, a diagnostic laparoscopy was performed, which detected a sealed perforation in the fundus of the wrapped-sleeved stomach, along with an incidental finding of intestinal malrotation...

INTRODUCTION: Optimal pain control methods after total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) achieve reduced opioid consumption, shortened hospital stay, and improved patient satisfaction in addition to adequate analgesia. Interscalene brachial plexus block is the gold standard for TSA, yet it typically does not provide pain relief lasting beyond 24 hours. Liposomal bupivacaine (LB) purportedly provides prolonged analgesia, yet it has been minimally explored for interscalene block, and it is significantly more expensive than standard bupivacaine...

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) would be the procedure of choice for non-responders of weight loss and patients with reflux symptoms (GERD). However, not every patient is a candidate for RYGB, and sometimes, the patient can insist only on alternatives other than malabsorption procedures, as was the case with our patient. We report a case with symptomatic GERD who underwent a successful Nissen sleeve gastrectomy after band removal. To our knowledge, this is the first case using Nissen sleeve as a redo surgery after a previous bariatric procedure...

Laparoscopy has become a milestone with reduced surgical stress and postoperative pain. Evidence promotes erector spinae block for laparoscopic abdominal surgery, in particular for cholecystectomy. The thoracic paravertebral space block is the administration of local anesthetic into a wedge-shaped space on the antero-lateral thoracic spine and provides abdominal analgesia. We hypothesized that a combination of two paravertebral by proxy blocks (erector spinae and intertransverse process (ITP)) with multi-dermatomeric coverage and visceral pain control, with evidence for intra- and postoperative analgesia in thoracic and abdominal surgeries, may be a surgical anesthesia option for laparoscopy...
