Introduction
The main objective of this study was to analyse the results of the surgical treatment of ampullary neuroendocrine tumours (NET) based on transduodenal ampullectomy and pancreatoduodenectomy, in a reference centre in hepatobiliopancreatic pathology.
Method
Retrospective, observational study, including all patients operated on for pancr...
Background/objectives Reports about the implementation of recommendations from acute pancreatitis guidelines are scant. This study aimed to evaluate, on a patient-data basis, the contemporary practice patterns of management of biliary acute pancreatitis and to compare these practices with the recommendations by the most updated guidelines. Methods...
Background: This study provides a global overview of the management of patients with acute cholecystitis during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Background: This study provides a global overview of the management of patients with acute cholecystitis during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to determine if the prognostic value of the preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) could be modified by the presence of postoperative complications (POC) and their severity in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma resected with curative intent.
Methods
A retrospective study based on a prospective databas...
Background
SARS-CoV-2 may produce intestinal symptoms that are generally mild, with a small percentage of patients developing more severe symptoms. The involvement of SARS-CoV-2 in the physiopathology of bowel damage is poorly known. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a useful tool that provides an understanding of SARS-CoV-2 invasiveness, r...
IntroductionIsolated laparoscopic resection of the hepatic caudate lobe (segment 1) is a very challenging procedure. Very few references are available on this technique, and the aim of this paper is to show the main technical aspects of laparoscopic caudal approach for segment 1.Material and Methods
The subject was a 64-year-old woman with a past m...
Background
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) procedures are becoming more frequent nowadays and novel techniques are on the rise. These procedures require high technical experience and complex endoscopic skills. The goal of this study was to develop a new minimally invasive animal model of bile duct dilatation in the pig, in order to offer a new tool for...
Pancreatoduodenectomy is one of the most complex surgical techniques and presents the highest morbidity and mortality in
pancreatic surgery. The laparoscopic approach is still not performed in most hospitals because extensive experience in pancreatic
surgery and advanced laparoscopic surgery is necessary. Likewise, it usually requires longer surgic...
Introduction:
Isolated segment 1 laparoscopic liver resection is a very challenging procedure. Very few references are available about this laparoscopic technique, so the aim of this article is to show the main technical aspects of laparoscopic caudal approach for segment 1.
Material and Methods:
A 64 years old woman with a past medical history of...
ABSTRACT
Background and Aims
Early cholecystectomy is the gold standard treatment for acute calculous cholecystitis (AC), although for grade II, many surgeons still prefer delayed cholecystectomy, to avoid surgical complications. The aim of this study is to analyze postoperative
morbidity and mortality for Tokyo Guidelines grade II AC treated with...
Background:
Although index cholecystectomy is considered the treatment of choice for acute cholecystitis (AC), many hospital systems struggle to provide such a service. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of failure to perform index cholecystectomy in patients presenting with acute cholecystitis.
Methods:
Between June 2010 and Decemb...
Introduction
Thromboelastography (TEG) provides an in vivo assessment of viscoelastic clot strength in whole blood compared with a conventional coagulation test (CCT), which may not reflect the influence of platelets. The aim of this study was to compare TEG vs CCT in trauma patients stratified by mechanism of injury (MOI) and pre-existing coagulat...
Introduction:
TEG provides an in-vivo assessment of viscoelastic clot strength in whole blood compared with CCT, which may not reflect the influence of platelets. The aim of this study was to compare TEG vs. CCT in trauma patients stratified by mechanism of injury (MOI) and pre-existing coagulation status.
Methods:
A retrospective, observational...
Background: The appendiceal diverticulum is an uncommon pathology. Its most common clinical presentation is the appendiceal diverticulitis and the symptoms are similar to acute appendicitis. Also, it can be considered as part of differential diagnosis for chronic abdominal pain.
Aim: Analyze the prevalence in our hospital of appendiceal diverticulo...
