Abstract

A reliable system for grading operative difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy would standardise description of findings and reporting of outcomes. The aim of this study was to validate a difficulty grading system (Nassar scale), testing its applicability and consistency in two large prospective datasets.Patient and disease-related variables and 30-day outcomes were identified in two prospective cholecystectomy databases: the multi-centre prospective cohort of 8820 patients from the recent CholeS Study and the single-surgeon series containing 4089 patients. Operative data and patient outcomes were correlated with Nassar operative difficultly scale, using Kendall's tau for dichotomous variables, or Jonckheere-Terpstra tests for continuous variables. A ROC curve analysis was performed, to quantify the predictive accuracy of the scale for each outcome, with continuous outcomes dichotomised, prior to analysis.A higher operative difficulty grade was consistently associated with worse outcomes for the patients in both the reference and CholeS cohorts. The median length of stay increased from 0 to 4 days, and the 30-day complication rate from 7.6 to 24.4% as the difficulty grade increased from 1 to 4/5 (both p 0.001). In the CholeS cohort, a higher difficulty grade was found to be most strongly associated with conversion to open and 30-day mortality (AUROC = 0.903, 0.822, respectively). On multivariable analysis, the Nassar operative difficultly scale was found to be a significant independent predictor of operative duration, conversion to open surgery, 30-day complications and 30-day reintervention (all p 0.001).We have shown that an operative difficulty scale can standardise the description of operative findings by multiple grades of surgeons to facilitate audit, training assessment and research. It provides a tool for reporting operative findings, disease severity and technical difficulty and can be utilised in future research to reliably compare outcomes according to case mix and intra-operative difficulty.

Abstract

Background The ability to accurately predict operative duration has the potential to optimise theatre efficiency and utilisation, thus reducing costs and increasing staff and patient satisfaction. With laparoscopic cholecystectomy being one of the most commonly performed procedures worldwide, a tool to predict operative duration could be extremely beneficial to healthcare organisations. Methods Data collected from the CholeS study on patients undergoing cholecystectomy in UK and Irish hospitals between 04/2014 and 05/2014 were used to study operative duration. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was produced in order to identify significant independent predictors of long (> 90 min) operations. The resulting model was converted to a risk score, which was subsequently validated on second cohort of patients using ROC curves. Results After exclusions, data were available for 7227 patients in the derivation (CholeS) cohort. The median operative duration was 60 min (interquartile range 45–85), with 17.7% of operations lasting longer than 90 min. Ten factors were found to be significant independent predictors of operative durations > 90 min, including ASA, age, previous surgical admissions, BMI, gallbladder wall thickness and CBD diameter. A risk score was then produced from these factors, and applied to a cohort of 2405 patients from a tertiary centre for external validation. This returned an area under the ROC curve of 0.708 (SE = 0.013, p 90 min increasing more than eightfold from 5.1 to 41.8% in the extremes of the score. Conclusion The scoring tool produced in this study was found to be significantly predictive of long operative durations on validation in an external cohort. As such, the tool may have the potential to enable organisations to better organise theatre lists and deliver greater efficiencies in care.

Abstract

Background The aim was to describe the management of benign gallbladder disease and identify characteristics associated with all-cause 30-day readmissions and complications in a prospective population-based cohort. Methods Data were collected on consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy in acute UK and Irish hospitals between 1 March and 1 May 2014. Potential explanatory variables influencing all-cause 30-day readmissions and complications were analysed by means of multilevel, multivariable logistic regression modelling using a two-level hierarchical structure with patients (level 1) nested within hospitals (level 2). Results Data were collected on 8909 patients undergoing cholecystectomy from 167 hospitals. Some 1451 cholecystectomies (16·3 per cent) were performed as an emergency, 4165 (46·8 per cent) as elective operations, and 3293 patients (37·0 per cent) had had at least one previous emergency admission, but had surgery on a delayed basis. The readmission and complication rates at 30 days were 7·1 per cent (633 of 8909) and 10·8 per cent (962 of 8909) respectively. Both readmissions and complications were independently associated with increasing ASA fitness grade, duration of surgery, and increasing numbers of emergency admissions with gallbladder disease before cholecystectomy. No identifiable hospital characteristics were linked to readmissions and complications. Conclusion Readmissions and complications following cholecystectomy are common and associated with patient and disease characteristics.

Abstract

Background The aims of this prospective population-based cohort study were to identify the patient and hospital characteristics associated with emergency cholecystectomy, and the influences of these in determining variations between hospitals. Methods Data were collected for consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy in acute UK and Irish hospitals between 1 March and 1 May 2014. Potential explanatory variables influencing the performance of emergency cholecystectomy were analysed by means of multilevel, multivariable logistic regression modelling using a two-level hierarchical structure with patients (level 1) nested within hospitals (level 2). Results Data were collected on 4744 cholecystectomies from 165 hospitals. Increasing age, lower ASA fitness grade, biliary colic, the need for further imaging (magnetic retrograde cholangiopancreatography), endoscopic interventions (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) and admission to a non-biliary centre significantly reduced the likelihood of an emergency cholecystectomy being performed. The multilevel model was used to calculate the probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy for a woman aged 40 years or over with an ASA grade of I or II and a BMI of at least 25·0 kg/m2, who presented with acute cholecystitis with an ultrasound scan showing a thick-walled gallbladder and a normal common bile duct. The mean predicted probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy was 0·52 (95 per cent c.i. 0·45 to 0·57). The predicted probabilities ranged from 0·02 to 0·95 across the 165 hospitals, demonstrating significant variation between hospitals. Conclusion Patients with similar characteristics presenting to different hospitals with acute gallbladder pathology do not receive comparable care.

Abstract

Background: Children with acute liver failure (ALF) who meet the criteria are eligible for super-urgent transplantation, whereas children with end-stage chronic liver disease (ESCLD) are usually transplanted electively. Pediatric liver trans plantation (PLT) in ALF and ESCLD settings has been well described in the literature, but there are no studies comparing the outcomes in these two groups., Aim: To determine if there is a difference in post-operative complications and survival outcomes between ALF and ESCLD in PLT., Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of all primary PLTs performed at a single center between 2000 and 2019. ALF and ESCLD groups were compared for pretransplant recipient, donor and operative parameters, and post-operative outcomes including graft and patient survival., Results: Over a 20-year study period, 232 primary PLTs were performed at our center; 195 were transplanted for ESCLD and 37 were transplanted for ALF. The ALF recipients were significantly older (median 8 years vs 5.4 years; P = 0.031) and heavier (31 kg vs 21 kg; P = 0.011). Living donor grafts were used more in the ESCLD group (34 vs 0; P = 0.006). There was no difference between the two groups concerning vascular complications and rejection, but there were more bile leaks in the ESCLD group. Post-transplant patient survival was significantly higher in the ESCLD group: 1-, 5-, and 10-year survival rates were 97.9%, 93.9%, and 89.4%, respectively, compared to 78.3%, 78.3%, and 78.3% in the ALF group ( P = 0.007). However, there was no difference in 1-, 5-, and 10-year graft survival between the ESCLD and ALF groups (90.7%, 82.9%, 77.3% vs 75.6%, 72.4%, and 66.9%; P = 0.119)., Conclusion: Patient survival is inferior in ALF compared to ESCLD recipients; the main reason is death in the 1 st year post-PLT in ALF group. Once the ALF children overcome the 1 st year after transplant, their survival stabilizes, and they have good long-term outcomes., Competing Interests: Conflict-of-interest statement: All the authors report no relevant conflicts of interest for this article., (©The Author(s) 2023.

Abstract

Objective: The aims of the present study were to identify independent risk factors for conduit occlusion, compare outcomes of different AC placement sites, and investigate whether postoperative platelet antiaggregation is protective., Background: Arterial conduits (AC) in liver transplantation (LT) offer an effective rescue option when regular arterial graft revascularization is not feasible. However, the role of the conduit placement site and postoperative antiaggregation is insufficiently answered in the literature., Study Design: This is an international, multicenter cohort study of adult deceased donor LT requiring AC. The study included 14 LT centers and covered the period from January 2007 to December 2016. Primary endpoint was arterial occlusion/patency. Secondary endpoints included intra- and perioperative outcomes and graft and patient survival., Results: The cohort was composed of 565 LT. Infrarenal aortic placement was performed in 77% of ACs whereas supraceliac placement in 20%. Early occlusion (≤30 days) occurred in 8% of cases. Primary patency was equivalent for supraceliac, infrarenal, and iliac conduits. Multivariate analysis identified donor age >40 years, coronary artery bypass, and no aspirin after LT as independent risk factors for early occlusion. Postoperative antiaggregation regimen differed among centers and was given in 49% of cases. Graft survival was significantly superior for patients receiving aggregation inhibitors after LT., Conclusion: When AC is required for rescue graft revascularization, the conduit placement site seems to be negligible and should follow the surgeon's preference. In this high-risk group, the study supports the concept of postoperative antiaggregation in LT requiring AC., Competing Interests: The authors report no conflicts of interest., (Copyright © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

Abstract

Background: Post hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) remains a significant risk in patients undergoing curative liver resection for cancer, however currently available PHLF risk prediction investigations are not sufficiently accurate. The Hepatectomy risk assessment with functional magnetic resonance imaging trial (HEPARIM) aims to establish if quantitative MRI biomarkers of liver function & perfusion can be used to more accurately predict PHLF risk and FLR function, measured against indocyanine green (ICG) liver function test., Methods: HEPARIM is an observational cohort study recruiting patients undergoing liver resection of 2 segments or more, prior to surgery patients will have both Dynamic Gadoxetate-enhanced (DGE) liver MRI and ICG testing. Day one post op ICG testing is repeated and R15 compared to the Gadoxetate Clearance (GC) of the future liver remnant (FLR-GC) as measure by preoperative DGE- MRI which is the primary outcome, and preoperative ICG R15 compared to GC of whole liver (WL-GC) as a secondary outcome. Data will be collected from medical records, biochemistry, pathology and radiology reports and used in a multi-variate analysis to the value of functional MRI and derive multivariant prediction models for future validation., Discussion: If successful, this test will potentially provide an efficient means to quantitatively assess FLR function and PHLF risk enabling surgeons to push boundaries of liver surgery further while maintaining safe practice and thereby offering chance of cure to patients who would previously been deemed inoperable. MRI has the added benefit of already being part of the routine diagnostic pathway and as such would have limited additional burden on patients time or cost to health care systems.

Abstract

Background: No data exist to evaluate how hepatectomy time (HT), in the context of donation after cardiac death (DCD) procurement, impacts short- and long-term outcomes after liver transplantation (LT). In this study, we analyze the impact of the time from aortic perfusion to end of hepatectomy on outcomes after DCD LT in the United Kingdom., Methods: An analysis of 1112 DCD donor LT across all UK transplant centers between 2001 and 2015 was performed, using data from the UK Transplant Registry. Donors were all Maastricht Category III. Graft survival after transplantation was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and logistic regression to identify risk factors for primary nonfunction (PNF) and short- and long-term graft survivals after LT., Results: Incidence of PNF was 4% (40) and in multivariate analysis only cold ischemia time (CIT) longer than 8 hours (hazard ratio [HR], 2.186; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.113-4.294; P = 0.023) and HT > 60 minutes (HR, 3.669; 95% CI, 1.363-9.873; P = 0.01) were correlated with PNF. Overall 90-day, 1-, 3-, and 5-year graft survivals in DCD LT were 91.2%, 86.5%, 80.9%, and 77.7% (compared with a donation after brain death cohort in the same period [n = 7221] 94%, 91%, 86.6%, and 82.6%, respectively [P < 0.001]). In multivariate analysis, the factors associated with graft survival were HT longer than 60 minutes, donor older than 45 years, CIT longer than 8 hours, and recipient previous abdominal surgery., Conclusions: There is a negative impact of prolonged HT on outcomes on DCD LT and although HT is 60 minutes or longer is not a contraindication for utilization, it should be part of a multifactorial assessment with established prognostic donor factors, such as age (>45 y) and CIT (>8 h) for an appropriately selected recipient.

Abstract

Background: Kidneys from donors after cardiac or circulatory death are exposed to extended periods of both warm ischemia and intra-arterial cooling before organ recovery. Marshall's hypertonic citrate (HOC) and Bretschneider's histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) preservation solutions are cheap, low viscosity preservation solutions used clinically for organ flushing. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of these two solutions both on parameters used in clinical practice to assess organ viability prior to transplantation and histological evidence of ischemic injury after reperfusion., Methods: Rodent kidneys were exposed to post-mortem warm ischemia, extended intra-arterial cooling (IAC) (up to 2 h) with preservation solution and reperfusion with either Krebs-Hensleit or whole blood in a transplant model. Control kidneys were either reperfused directly after retrieval or stored in 0.9% saline. Biochemical, immunological and histological parameters were assessed using glutathione-S-transferase (GST) enzymatic assays, polymerase chain reaction and mitochondrial electron microscopy respectively. Vascular function was assessed by supplementing the Krebs-Hensleit perfusion solution with phenylephrine to stimulate smooth muscle contraction followed by acetylcholine to trigger endothelial dependent relaxation., Results: When compared with kidneys reperfused directly post mortem, 2 h of IAC significantly reduced smooth muscle contractile function, endothelial function and upregulated vascular cellular adhesion molecule type 1 (VCAM-1) independent of the preservation solution. However, GST release, vascular resistance, weight gain and histological mitochondrial injury were dependent on the preservation solution used., Conclusions: We conclude that initial machine perfusion viability tests, including ischemic vascular resistance and GST, are dependent on the perfusion solution used during in situ cooling. HTK-perfused kidneys will be heavier, have higher GST readings and yet reduced mitochondrial ischemic injury when compared with HOC-perfused kidneys. Clinicians should be aware of this when deciding which kidneys to transplant or discard.

Abstract

Purpose: To review the outcome of transperitoneal laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty (LDP) in our institution., Patients and Methods: From April 2001 to April 2005, 36 men and 34 women underwent LDP for symptomatic and radiologically proved ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction. A successful outcome was defined clinically by improvement in symptoms and objectively by improvement in the diuretic renography study performed at 3 and 12 months after reconstruction., Results: The mean operative time was 160.5 +/- 45 minutes with a mean blood loss of 77.8 +/- 52.8 mL. There were no conversions to open surgery. Lower-pole vessels were observed in 38 patients (54.3%). In all cases, the ureter was transposed anteriorly. The mean hospital stay was 3.3 +/- 2.1 days. Postoperative complications were recorded in 4 patients (5.7%). One patient developed an anastomotic stricture. A successful outcome was achieved in 68 of the 70 patients (97.1%) at a mean follow-up of 27.6 +/- 13.2 months., Conclusion: Our results further strengthen the evidence that LDP has a reliable medium-term outcome with the added benefit of being minimally invasive.
