Aim to study the feasibility and value of “Targeted Axillary Dissection” (TAD) in cN1 breast cancer (BC) patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), in order to avoid unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Materials and methods Design: Prospective observational study. Inclusion criteria: Patients with histologically confirmed cN1 staging BC and treated with NACT between January 2016 and August 2019 who accomplished clinical response. Method: Fine-Needle Aspiration (FNA) positive axillary nodes were marked with a metallic clip prior to neoadjuvant treatment. All patients were summited to TAD and ALND. Analysis of data: We performed [1]: a feasibility analysis of clinical, radiological and pathological variables, as well as difficulties and complications of the TAD [2]; a diagnostic test study of the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), clipped lymph node biopsy (BCLIP) and their combination (TAD), using ALND as the Gold Standard. Results 60 patients were included. 43 patients (71.7%) had a complete clinical lymph node response to NACT. Neither limitations nor complications in clip placement were found. Intraoperative location of the clipped node was problematic in 7 cases (11.7%). The pathological complete response rate (pCR) was 30.5% (18 patients) and ypN0 staging rate was 38.3% (23 patients). Sensitivity values of each technique were: SLNB: 80.9% (95%CI: 61.8–100); BCLIP: 80.8% (95%CI: 63.7–97.8); TAD: 92.6% (95%CI: 80.9–100) with negative predictive values of: SLNB: 84.6% (95%CI: 68.8–100); BCLIP: 81.0% (95%CI: 63.7–97.8); TAD: 91.3% (95%CI: 77.6–100). Conclusion TAD is feasible and valid to rule out axillary metastatic involvement in cN1 breast cancer patients who respond to NACT.

Background There is no unified system for reporting surgical complications after bariatric surgery. One increasingly used system for notifying postoperative complications is the Clavien-Dindo classification, which focuses on their therapeutic implications. Objective The aim of this study is to validate and apply the Clavien-Dindo scale to a series of cases of bariatric surgery and systematically review its use worldwide. Setting University hospital. Methods A cohort of 321 patients with morbid obesity (Mean BMI: 45.4±5.5 kg/m2) underwent surgery by the same team of surgeons, fundamentally using a laparoscopic gastric bypass. Initially, the Clavien-Dindo scale was translated and validated for its acceptability and reproducibility using the Kappa index. The scale was then applied to the whole of the bariatric series. A systematic review was also conducted in the literature regarding the use of the Clavien-Dindo classification after bariatric surgery. Lastly, a comparison was made with our results. Results The classification was validated without any difficulty. Most of the postoperative complications are grades I (8.4%) and III (7.8%). We found it used in 15 series (including our own), which accounts for 10,347 patients. The overall results are analogous to our series. Conclusions The Clavien-Dindo scale has been validated and translated into Spanish. Application is quick and simple and enables comparisons to be made between centers and series. Our results are similar to those reported by other authors.

Resumen Introduccion Describir las principales caracteristicas clinicas, anatomopatologicas, terapeuticas y evolutivas de una serie amplia de tumores estromales gastrointestinales (GIST). Metodos Estudio observacional de una serie de 66 casos de GIST tratados en nuestro hospital de 2002 a 2015. Seleccionamos variables relacionadas con los antecedentes personales, las manifestaciones clinicas, el tratamiento medico y quirurgico, la anatomia patologica y la morbimortalidad. Anadimos una revision de la literatura para correlacionarla con nuestros resultados. Resultados La localizacion mas frecuente fue el estomago (65,2%), en el que destaco como region predominante el fondo. La manifestacion clinica mas habitual fue la hemorragia digestiva (45,5%), seguida del hallazgo casual tras la realizacion de alguna prueba de imagen o procedimiento invasivo (33,3%). Recibieron cirugia 58 pacientes (90,6%), el 15,5% de caracter urgente. El 69% de los GIST tenian un tamano entre 2 y 10 cm. La mortalidad al ano debida al tumor fue de un 7,9% (5 casos), todos ellos relacionados con extension local o a distancia, o complicacion quirurgica. Conclusiones La variabilidad clinica de los GIST es muy amplia. El tratamiento de primera eleccion es la cirugia, que es factible en la mayoria de los casos y debe ser lo mas conservadora posible. El pronostico es variable, dependiendo del tamano y del indice de proliferacion, por lo que debe realizarse un seguimiento estrecho. No existe un marcador tumoral claramente asociado a un peor pronostico, por lo que se necesitan nuevos estudios de biologia molecular con el objetivo de encontrar dianas terapeuticas.

Resumen El ileo paralitico es una de las principales complicaciones del postoperatorio. Con la introduccion de los protocolos fast-track para acelerar la recuperacion, han aparecido nuevas medidas, como la toma temprana de cafe, mascar chicle y el gastrografin. Para conocer mejor estas actuaciones, se ha realizado un resumen de la evidencia actual, utilizando las bases de datos de MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Web of Science y SCOPUS. Los terminos empleados fueron «postoperative ileus» AND («definition» OR «epidemiology» OR «risk factors» OR «management»). Se han seleccionado 44 articulos, de los cuales 9 son revisiones sistematicas, 11 revisiones narrativas, 13 ensayos clinicos aleatorizados, 6 estudios observacionales y los 5 restantes cartas cientificas, hipotesis, etc. Se ha visto que existe poca literatura acerca del tema, que los estudios son heterogeneos (con disparidad en los resultados) y se centran en cirugia colorrectal y ginecologica. Se necesitan nuevos estudios, preferentemente ensayos clinicos aleatorizados, que esclarezcan la utilidad de estas medidas.

Resumen Antecedentes y objetivo El cancer tiroideo puede manifestarse clinicamente por la presencia de un nodulo cervical, o constituir un hallazgo casual en el estudio histologico de la glandula extirpada con diagnostico, a priori, benigno. El objetivo del presente estudio fue estudiar las diferencias clinicas, de manejo quirurgico y curso evolutivo entre los tumores tiroideos incidentales y los tumores detectados clinicamente. Material y metodos Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes intervenidos por enfermedad tiroidea, ya fuese benigna o maligna, en el periodo comprendido entre enero de 2000 y marzo de 2014. De 1.415 pacientes que se sometieron a algun tipo de cirugia tiroidea se identificaron un total de 264 neoplasias, de las cuales 170 fueron incidentales. Se realizo comparacion entre carcinomas incidentales versus no incidentales. Ademas, entre los incidentales se compararon los casos cuya indicacion quirurgica fue enfermedad de Graves frente a bocio multinodular. Resultados Los carcinomas incidentales presentaron estadios mas precoces y requirieron cirugia menos agresiva. No se observaron diferencias en las complicaciones quirurgicas entre ambos grupos, aunque tanto la mortalidad como las tasas de recidiva fueron notablemente mayores en el grupo de no incidentales (4,4% vs 0% y 13,2% vs 4,8% respectivamente). Los carcinomas desarrollados sobre enfermedad de Graves no mostraron diferencias respecto al resto de los tumores incidentales, respecto a complicaciones, mortalidad o recidiva tras la cirugia. Conclusiones El cancer tiroideo en estadios iniciales presenta mayor supervivencia y mejor respuesta al tratamiento quirurgico.

Postoperative ileus is one of the main complications in the postoperative period. New measures appeared with the introduction of «fast-track surgery» to accelerate recovery: coffee, chewing gum and gastrograffin. We performed a summary of current evidence, reviewing articles from MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, ISI Web of Science, and SCOPUS databases. Employed search terms were «postoperative ileus» AND («definition» OR «epidemiology» OR «risk factors» OR «Management»). We selected 44 articles: 9 systematic reviews 11 narrative reviews, 13 randomized clinical trials, 6 observational studies, and the remaining 5 scientific letters, assumptions, etc. There is little literature about this topic, studies are heterogeneous, with disparity in the results. In addition, they only focus on colorectal and gynecological surgery. New high-quality studies are needed, preferably randomized clinical trials, in order to clarify the usefulness of these measures.

Background and objective Thyroid cancer may be clinically evident as a tumor mass in the neck or as a histopathological incidental finding after thyroid surgery for an apparent benign condition. Our objective was to assess the differences in clinical signs, surgical management, and course between incidental and clinically diagnosed thyroid tumors. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients operated on for benign or malignant thyroid disease from January 2000 to March 2014. Among the 1415 patients who underwent any thyroid surgery, 264 neoplasms were found, of which 170 were incidental. A comparison was made of incidental versus non-incidental carcinomas. Among incidental carcinomas, cases whose indication for surgery was Graves’ disease were compared to those with multinodular goiter. Results Incidental carcinomas were in earlier stages and required less aggressive surgery. There were no differences in surgical complications between incidental and clinical tumors, but mortality and relapses were markedly higher in non-incidental cancers (4.4% vs 0% and 13.2% vs 4.8% respectively). Carcinomas developing on Graves’ disease showed no differences from all other incidental tumors in terms of complications, mortality, or relapse after surgery. Conclusions Early stage thyroid cancer has better survival and prognosis after surgical treatment.

Population-based screening programmes for colorectal cancer (CRC) allow an early diagnosis, even before the onset of symptoms, but there are few studies and none in Spain on the influence they have on patient survival. The aim of the present study is to show that patients receiving surgery for CRC following diagnosis via a screening programme have a higher survival and disease-free survival rate than those diagnosed in the symptomatic stage.Prospective study of all the patients undergoing programmed surgery for CRC at the JM Morales Meseguer Hospital in Murcia (Spain) between 2004 and 2010. The patients were divided into two groups: (a) those diagnosed through screening (125 cases); and (b) those diagnosed in the symptomatic stage (565 cases). Survival and disease-free survival were analysed and compared for both groups using the Mantel method.The screen-detected CRC patients show a higher rate of survival (86.3% versus 72.1% at 5 years, p0.05) and a lower rate of tumour recurrence (73.4% versus 88.3% at 5 years, p0.05).Population-based screening for CRC is an effective strategic measure for reducing mortality specific to this neoplasia.

ResumenAntecedentesLa úlcera de Marjolin se define como la aparición de una neoplasia en el seno de una herida crónica. La histología más frecuente es epidermoide. Presentamos 2 casos tratados en nuestro hospital.Caso clínicosCaso 1. Varón de 71 años que consultó por supuración y enrojecimiento de las heridas que presentaba en el pie derecho, tras una descarga eléctrica 40 años antes. En la radiología se apreciaba afectación del 4° y 5° metatarsianos y del tarso. Se realizó amputación supracondílea, con resultado de carcinoma epidermoide bien diferenciado infiltrante. Caso 2. Varón de 56 años, parapléjico desde hacía 20 años. Es tratado por úlcera en talón derecho sobreinfectada, con mejoría parcial pero con persistencia de la lesión ulcerosa. Se realizó biopsia, de la que se informó como carcinoma epidermoide. Se realizó amputación infracondílea. El diagnóstico fue de carcinoma escamoso bien diferenciado que infiltraba la dermis.ConclusionesLa prevalencia de la úlcera de Marjolin es de 1.3-2.2% de todas las úlceras. El diagnóstico es difícil, por lo que se recomienda biopsia de toda lesión sospechosa o de cualquier úlcera, que después de 1 mes de tratamiento conservador (aunque este límite es impreciso) no presenta mejoría. El tratamiento es quirúrgico; la escisión local con margen de un centímetro es suficiente; si la lesión es extensa es necesaria la amputación.La supervivencia se estima entre el 66-80% a los 2 años, con tasas de recurrencia del 23%. Los factores desfavorables son la pobre diferenciación y las metástasis, que aparecen en el 20% de los casos.AbstractBackgroundMarjolin's ulcer is defined as the appearance of a neoplasm within a chronic wound. The most common histological type is squamous. A total of 2 cases treated in our hospital are presented.Clinical caseCase 1. A 71 year old man who presented with redness and suppuration from the wounds he had in his right foot after an electric shock 40 years earlier. The radiology showed involvement of the 4° and 5° metatarsal. Supracondylar amputation was performed, showing a well-differentiated invasive squamous cell carcinoma. Case 2. A 56 year old male, paraplegic for 20 years. He was treated due to an infected right heel ulcer, with partial improvement, but the ulcers persisted. Biopsy was performed, reporting as epidermoid carcinoma. Infracondylar amputation was performed. The diagnosis was a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma infiltrating the dermis.ConclusionThe prevalence of Marjolin's ulcer is 1.3-2.2% of all ulcers. Diagnosis is difficult, so biopsy is recommended on any suspicious lesion or ulcer that has received conservative treatment for one month without improvement, although this time limit is not clear. The treatment is the surgery. Local excision with a margin of an inch is enough. If the ulcer is extensive, amputation is required. Survival is estimated between 66 and 80% at 2 years, with recurrence rates of 23%. Unfavourable factors are poor tumour differentiation and metástasis, appearing in 20% of cases.

Resumen Objetivos La hemorragia digestiva alta (HDA) es una potencial complicacion tras la cirugia bariatrica, con una incidencia entre el 2 y el 4%. El objetivo de este estudio es presentar nuestra incidencia de HDA tras cirugia bariatrica, su forma de presentacion y su manejo mediante un algoritmo terapeutico. Pacientes y metodo Estudio observacional prospectivo de una serie de 300 cirugias bariatricas por laparoscopia de manera consecutiva, desde enero del 2004 hasta diciembre del 2012. Se recogen datos demograficos, forma de presentacion, diagnostico y tratamiento de la HDA. En 280 pacientes se practico bypass gastrico segun la tecnica de Wittgrove modificada, con anastomosis circular en 265 y anastomosis longitudinal en 15. En 20 pacientes se practico gastrectomia vertical. Resultados Aparecieron 27 casos (9%) de HDA tratados con: cirugia en un caso por inestabilidad hemodinamica; con gastroscopia diagnostica-terapeutica en 13 casos (en 2 casos, 2 veces); en 10 de ellos, aparecio de forma precoz (1-6 dias) cuyo origen fue la linea de sutura de la anastomosis gastroyeyunal (GY) y en 3 de forma tardia, a los 15-20 dias, siendo su origen una ulcera en la boca anastomotica. En el resto (13 pacientes), el manejo fue de forma conservadora. Conclusiones Aunque el manejo conservador de la HDA resuelve la mayoria de los casos, la clinica y la forma de presentacion deben alertarnos, por lo que, en casos graves de sangrado, se requerira de una endoscopia urgente. Es importante un equipo multidisciplinar y una comunicacion estrecha entre cirujanos y endoscopistas para el manejo de esta seria complicacion.

Gastrointestinal bleeding (GB) is a potential complication after bariatric surgery and its frequency is around 2-4% according to the literature. The aim of this study is to present our experience with GB after bariatric surgery, its presentation and possible treatment options by means of an algorithm.From January 2004 to December 2012, we performed 300 consecutive laparoscopic bariatric surgeries. A total of 280 patients underwent a laparoscopic Roux en Y gastric bypass with creation of a gastrojejunal anastomosis using a circular stapler type CEAA No 21 in 265 patients and with a linear stapler in 15 patients. Demographics, clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation and treatment were reviewed. A total of 20 patients underwent a sleeve gastrectomy.Twenty-seven cases (9%) developed GB. Diagnosis and therapeutic endoscopy was required in 13 patients. The onset of bleeding occurred between the 1(st)-6(th) postop days in 10 patients, and the origin was at the gastrojejunostomy staple-lines, and 3 patients had bleeding from an anastomotic ulcer 15-20 days after surgery. All other patients were managed non-operatively.Conservative management of gastrointestinal bleeding is effective in most cases, but endoscopy with therapeutic intent should be considered in patients with severe or recurrent bleeding. Multidisciplinary postoperative follow- up is very important for early detention and treatment of this complication.

Resumen Introduccion La estenosis de la anastomosis gastroyeyunal (GY) representa la complicacion mas frecuente en la cirugia de derivacion gastrica por laparoscopia, llegando en algunas series a alcanzar el 15%. Presentamos nuestra incidencia de estenosis de la anastomosis GY en el bypass gastrico laparoscopico, su forma de presentacion y su manejo a largo plazo. Material y metodo Desde enero del 2004 hasta diciembre del 2012 se han realizado 280 bypass gastricos por la laparoscopia, segun la tecnica de Wittgrove modificada. La anastomosis GY circular se practico con material de autosutura tipo CEAA n.° 21 en 265 casos, en los restantes se realizo con una anastomosis longitudinal con grapadora lineal de 45 mm. A todos los pacientes con intolerancia persistente a la alimentacion se les realizo transito baritado o gastroscopia. Cuando se evidencio estenosis GY (diametro Resultados En 20 casos (7,1%) se desarrollo una estenosis GY, en 4 de ellos el diagnostico inicial fue con transito baritado. Todos los casos fueron confirmados por gastroscopia. De ellos, 5 pacientes tenian antecedentes de hemorragia digestiva alta que precisaron esclerosis endoscopica de la linea de sutura de la anastomosis GY. Todos los casos se han resuelto mediante dilatacion endoscopica, precisando en un caso 2 sesiones de dilatacion, en otro caso 3 sesiones y el resto, una. No se han detectado reestenosis. Uno de los pacientes sufrio una perforacion de ulcera postanastomotica. Conclusiones La estenosis de la anastomosis GY es una complicacion frecuente tras el bypass gastrico en Y de Roux. Favorecida por anastomosis de pequeno calibre. La endoscopia es la piedra angular para el diagnostico y tratamiento, pues resuelve la mayoria de casos, siendo rara la revision quirurgica.

Objective Gastrojejunal stricture (GYS), is not only a common complication after laparoscopic gastric bypass, but its frequency is also about 15% according to bibliography. Our aim is to present our experience after 280 laparoscopic gastric bypass. Patients and method From January 2004 to December 2012, 280 patients underwent a laparoscopic Roux en Y gastric bypass with creation of the gastrojejunal anastomosis, which was performed with circular stapler type CEAA No 21 in 265 patients and with a linear stapler in 15 patients. In all patients with persistent feeding intolerance barium transit and/or gastroscopy were performed. When gastrojejunal stricture showed proceeded to endoscopic pneumatic dilation. Results Twenty cases (7.1%) developed a gastrojejunal stricture; in 4 of these cases the initial diagnosis was made by barium transit and all cases were confirmed by endoscopy. Five patients had a history of digestive bleeding that required endoscopic sclerosis of the bleeding lesion. All cases were resolved by endoscopic dilatation. One patient suffered a perforation and a re-intervention. At follow-up re-stricture has not been detected. Conclusion Stricture at the gastrojejunal anastomosis after gastric bypass is the commonest complication early after surgery. Endoscopic balloon dilatation is a safe and effective therapy.

Resumen Objetivos Evaluar las variables relacionadas con la diseminacion metastasica axilar e intentar validar los diferentes modelos predictivos creados hasta la fecha. Pacientes y metodo Realizamos un estudio retrospectivo a lo largo de 10 anos. Fueron incluidas todas las pacientes intervenidas de cancer de mama en nuestro hospital con ganglio centinela positivo. Se recogieron 27 variables clinico/histologicas del tumor y se realizo un analisis uni/multivariante para valorar la relacion con la presencia de metastasis en ganglios axilares no centinelas. Se aplicaron los modelos predictivos a nuestra poblacion: MSKCC, Stanford, Tenon, Meretoja unicentrico y Meretoja multicentrico y se calculo para cada uno de ellos el area bajo la curva de caracteristica operativa de receptor (ROC). Resultados Las variables significativas con la diseminacion metastasica axilar fueron el IMC, la macrometastasis en el ganglio centinela, la unifocalidad y la extension extranodal. Ningun modelo predictivo pudo ser validado, pues todos presentan una capacidad discriminativa diagnostica baja, con areas bajo la curva menores de 0,7. Conclusiones Los modelos predictivos de diseminacion metastasica axilar en caso de ganglio centinela positivo por si solos no permiten discriminar aquellas pacientes con afectacion metastasica axilar en el ganglio no centinela.

Background Body contouring surgery is in high demand following the increase in bariatric surgery. But these types of procedures are associated with high complication rates that cause long hospital stays and have a negative effect on patient satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to identify predictors of complications in order to optimize outcomes in these patients and find a relationship between complication rate and satisfaction. Materials and methods Out of a group of 175 post-bariatric patients, 72 patients underwent body contouring surgery following massive weight loss from 2003 to 2008. They were reviewed retrospectively for demographic data, pre- and postoperative weight status, co-morbidities and complications and reoperation rate. Patient satisfaction was evaluated. Results (a) Complications: The overall complication rate was 45.8%. The most frequent were seromas (23.6%); infection (13.9%), bleeding (11.1%), hematoma (6.9%) (needing transfusions [6.9%]), skin necrosis (6.9%) and umbilical necrosis (4.2%). A total of 8 patients required reoperation (11.1%). (b) Satisfaction rating: (1) very satisfied: 51.4%, (2) satisfied: 31.9%, (3) dissatisfied: 8.3%, (4) very dissatisfied: 8.3%. (c) The presence of complications was significantly associated with patients’ satisfaction, reoperation rate and longer hospital stays ( P 001). Conclusions Post operative complications were frequent. No predictors could be found to prevent these complications and optimize patient selection and appropriate timing of surgery. Patients with complications had a significantly higher reoperation rate, longer hospital stay and more dissatisfaction. The patients’ satisfaction was negatively influenced by complication occurrence and not by the esthetic results.

Resumen Introduccion Las abdominoplastias se han convertido en un proceso quirurgico frecuente en pacientes con perdida masiva de peso tras cirugia bariatrica. Este tipo de procedimientos no estan exentos de complicaciones que afectan a la calidad de vida y satisfaccion del paciente. El objetivo de este estudio es encontrar los factores de riesgo para desarrollar dichas complicaciones y evaluar la satisfaccion de nuestros pacientes. Material y metodos A un total de 72 pacientes, de los 175 intervenidos de cirugia bariatrica, se les realizo una abdominoplastia entre 2003 y 2008. Fueron revisados, retrospectivamente: datos demograficos, estado pre- y poscirugia, comorbilidades, tasa de complicaciones y reintervencion. El nivel de satisfaccion fue medido mediante una encuesta expresada en una escala tipo Likert. Se realizo un analisis comparativo de las distintas variables entre pacientes con y sin complicaciones. Resultados a) Complicaciones: tasa global del 45,5%. La mas frecuente fue el seroma (23,6%); infeccion (13,9%), sangrado (11,1%), hematoma (6,9%) (requiriendo transfusion [6,9%]), necrosis de piel (6,9%) y necrosis umbilical (4,2%). Se reintervino a 8 pacientes (11,1%). b) Satisfaccion: 1) muy satisfecho: 51,4%; 2) satisfecho: 31,9%; 3) insatisfecho: 8,3%; 4) muy insatisfecho: 8,3%. c) Se encuentra una relacion estadisticamente significativa entre complicaciones, reintervencion, estancia media y satisfaccion (p Conclusion Las complicaciones son relativamente frecuentes en este tipo de pacientes, alargando la estancia media y posteriores controles ambulatorios. No hemos identificado factores de riesgo que ayuden a prevenir este tipo de complicaciones. El grado de insatisfaccion esta en relacion con las complicaciones postoperatorias del procedimiento quirurgico y no con el resultado estetico.

Resumen La adquisicion y jerarquizacion de la evidencia, asi como la posterior formulacion de recomendaciones, constituyen la base del desarrollo de las guias de practica clinica. Sistemas de graduacion de la calidad de la evidencia y de la fuerza de las recomendaciones han existido muchos y actualmente se va imponiendo el modelo Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). En el sistema GRADE la calidad de la evidencia se clasifica, inicialmente, en alta o baja, segun provenga de estudios experimentales u observacionales; posteriormente, segun una serie de consideraciones, la evidencia queda en alta, moderada, baja y muy baja. La fuerza de las recomendaciones se apoya no solo en la calidad de la evidencia, sino en una serie de factores como son el balance entre riesgos y beneficios, los valores y preferencias de pacientes y profesionales, y el consumo de recursos o costes.

The acquisition and classification of scientific evidence, and subsequent formulation of recommendations constitute the basis for the development of clinical practice guidelines. There are several systems for the classification of evidence and strength of recommendations; the most commonly used nowadays is the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation system (GRADE). The GRADE system initially classifies the evidence into high or low, coming from experimental or observational studies; subsequently and following a series of considerations, the evidence is classified into high, moderate, low or very low. The strength of recommendations is based not only on the quality of the evidence, but also on a series of factors such as the risk/benefit balance, values and preferences of the patients and professionals, and the use of resources or costs.

This study was performed to determine if defect size after laparoscopic incisional hernia repair is predictive of recurrence during the long-term follow-up evaluation.We performed a prospective clinical study on 310 patients who underwent laparoscopic incisional hernia repair to identify predictable risk factors for hernia recurrence. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used. The defect size was analyzed with curve receiver operating characteristic curve.The overall recurrence rate was 6% after an average follow-up period of 60 months. On univariate analysis of the defect size (categories:10 cm, 10-12 cm, and15 cm), obesity, previous repairs, hernia location, surgical time, hospital stay, morbidity, and recurrences were significantly different (P.001). By multivariate analysis, only obesity and defect size were independent prognostic factors (P.001).The predictive value of defect size is shown. Patients with large defects have a higher risk of recurrence. Our study recommends reserving the laparoscopic technique for hernias not exceeding 10 cm in size, where it can be put to better use.

Faecal incontinence (FI) is a highly prevalent disorder that severely affects the health related quality of life (HRQOL) of the patients who suffer from it. Neuromodulation is a minimally invasive treatment that has demonstrated its efficacy in the treatment of FI symptoms over the past 10 years. The aim of this study is to check whether there is an improvement in the quality of life, using EuroQuol (EQ-5D), in patients with faecal incontinence treated with sacral root neuromodulation.An observational study with prospective recording of quality of life data, before and after, using the EQ-5D on a series of patients diagnosed with moderate to severe FI with a complete or repaired sphincter who had a definitive MEDTRONIC Interstim(®) 3023 implant after a subchronic stimulation phase with a good response.The initial mean number of leaks was 3.1±1, and the final was 0.5±0.6. The mean number of escapes per week decreased to 2.6 escapes (CI 95%: 2.1-3.1) after the definitive implant of the sacral root stimulator (P.001). The mean baseline health status score was 55.9±13, and after neuromodulation it was 63.1±13. Thus, the visual analogue scale score increased by 7.1 points (CI 95%: 0.37-14) after the definitive implant of the sacral root stimulator (P.05). In the HRQOL variables studied with the EQ-5D questionnaire, we found an improvement with neuromodulation in the mobility and the presence of anxiety and/or depression variables. On the other hand we found an improvement with the neurostimulator implant, which was not significant, in personal care, performing daily activities and the presence of pain and/or discomfort. The current health was better in 11 patients (57.9%), the same in 7 (36.8%) and worse in 1 (5.3%).Neuromodulation is a therapy that has demonstrated a significant improvement in HRQOL measured with the EQ-5D.

Background context Surgery for disc herniation is one of the most common traumas and neurosurgical procedures. Although discectomy has low morbidity, serious intra-abdominal complications can affect retroperitoneal structures, such as the large vessels, small intestine, and ureters. Case report A 36-year-old woman in uncontrollable pain presented with left sciatic neuralgia in the L5 region. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an extruded left paracentral hernia at L5–S1. With the patient in the decubitus prone position, trauma surgeons specializing in spine surgery performed an L5–S1 flavectomy and a simple discectomy. Intraoperative complications were not observed. About 4 hours after surgery, the patient reported sharp abdominal pain and had persistent hypotension. Emergency abdominal computed tomography showed hemoperitoneum in the pouch of Douglas and left parietocolic space. Laparoscopic exploration confirmed hemoperitoneum without visible cause, a seton perforation of the small intestine, and a few adhesions in the right iliac fossa that were consequences of previous appendectomy. A laparotomy was then performed. A lesion was discovered in the mesentery of the rectosigmoid junction coinciding with the S5–L1 space. A segmental bowel resection and mechanical side-to-side anastomosis, with drainage, were done. The patient recovered satisfactorily despite a surgical wound infection. Discussion Although bowel perforation after discectomy rarely occurs, spine surgeons must try to prevent them by being more cautious during surgery. General surgeons must be highly suspicious of the presence of an intra-abdominal complication when there are signs and symptoms of a postoperative acute abdomen.

Resumen El exito de la cirugia mayor ambulatoria (CMA) en Espana se debe a la necesidad de atender la lista de espera quirurgica para procesos de baja o media complejidad y la eficiencia, satisfaccion y seguridad que puede conseguir. Las vias clinicas (VC) son planes asistenciales definidos, sustentados en la evidencia cientifica, realizadas para entornos especificos, sobre «procesos clinicos» de curso clinico predecible, elevada prevalencia y variabilidad. En ellas se detalla la secuencia de todas las actividades, asi como la verificacion de las actuaciones de los profesionales afectados. La CMA se desarrolla con un elevado grado de protocolizacion y coordinacion entre diferentes especialidades y estamentos sanitarios. Si en cirugia programada las VC han demostrado su utilidad, es de suponer que en procedimientos de CMA, la aportacion de las VC pueda ser igualmente aplicada. En este articulo revisamos la metodologia de implementacion de VC en CMA asi como sus reticencias y expectativas.

Fundamentals and objectives: Frozen section (FS) constitutes a diagnostic procedure in patients following hemithyroidectomy. It is used to diagnose malignant lesions and to avoid reoperations. Our objective is to confirm this test as useless to rule out cancer. Patients and methods: Retrospective and comparative trial between two series of patients following hemithyroidectomy. G I: 179 patients operated in 1995–2002. In this period we performed systematic FS. Sensitivity (S), specificity (E) and predictive values (PPV, NPV) are analyzed. G II: 126 patients were operated between 2003–2008. Selective FS was performed (23 patients). Both groups are compared: hospital stay, number of FS, percentage of cancer, definitive biopsy and reoperations. Results: Data analyzed in the first period: S: 48%, E: 100%, PPV: 100%, NPV: 90%, positive likelihood ratio 410, negative likelihood ratio 0.52. When both periods are compared no significant differences between reoperations are found. Conclusion: FS during hemithyroidectomy does not reduce reoperations for cancer.

Resumen Las actividades de diseno de la calidad de guias de practica clinica (GPC) o protocolos y vias clinicas (VC) comprenden aquellos planes asistenciales previstos para los pacientes con una determinada enfermedad. Se deben basar en la evidencia cientifica, en el analisis del proceso y en el consenso de los profesionales que participan en la atencion del paciente. Es habitual cuando se plantea a los profesionales de la cirugia introducirse en esta problematica que afirmen que no entienden cual es la diferencia entre VC y protocolos o GPC. De hecho, estamos hablando de actividades de diseno de calidad con los mismos objetivos de disminuir la variabilidad injustificada y ayudar en la toma de decisiones sobre un problema clinico concreto. En este trabajo vamos a tratar de establecer diferencias y definir que se entiende por VC y por protocolo o GPC.

Background The treatment of complex incisional hernias is still difficult and controversial. With technologic developments we can modify and update the operative techniques described for treating complex abdominal wall hernias. Methods This is a prospective study of 50 patients with complex incisional hernias undergoing complex abdominal wall herniorrhaphy at a university hospital. All patients were evaluated in a multidisciplinary clinic dedicated to abdominal wall reconstruction. All patients underwent pre-operative computed tomography. Complex incisional hernias were regarded as those with multiple recurrences (>3 times), a previous mesh complicated by fistula and chronic infection, giant diffuse lumbar hernias, an associated parastomal hernia, or hernias developing after bariatric surgery. The operative technique was a double reconstruction prosthetic mesh. The type of repair as well as clinical, operative, and follow-up data were analyzed. Results Eight patients had considerable loss of tissue, 5 had trophic skin lesions, and 2 had chronic suppurative infection. The mean size of the defects was 18.2 cm. Morbidity included 5 cases of seroma, 2 neuralgias, and 2 cutaneous necroses. The mean duration of hospital stay was 5 days (range, 2–9). Complete follow-up (mean, 48 months; range, 12–108) showed no recurrent hernias. Conclusion While awaiting a longer follow-up to confirm the results, we conclude that complex incisional hernias can be repaired safely and with a low morbidity and recurrence rate by means of a double prosthetic repair technique.

The success of major ambulatory surgery (MAS) in Spain is due to the need to shorten the surgical waiting list for procedures of low to medium complexity, and the efficiency, satisfaction and safety that it can obtain. Clinical Pathways (CP) are defined health care plans, supported by scientific evidence, prepared for specific environments, on "Clinical Processes" with, a predictable clinical course, high prevalence and variability. The sequence of all the activities are set out in detail in them, as well as checking the performance of the professionals involved. MAS is performed using strict protocols and coordination between different specialties and health care levels. If CPs have demonstrated their usefulness in elective surgery, it could be assumed that the contribution of CPs could be equally applied to MAS procedures. In this article, we review the methodology for introducing CP into MAS, as well as its obstacles and expectations.

There still appears to be insufficient interest in the management of postoperative nausea and vomiting. They are considered as inherent and inevitable discomforts after surgical operation. However, this disagreeable complication can be effectively managed. To do this, the risk must be suitably assessed and acted on accordingly. There are a wide variety of prophylactic options available associated with the anaesthetic technique, as well as appropriate anti-emetic treatment. In this article, the risk factors are reviewed and series of operative and postoperative recommendations are made.

Resumen Los materiales protesicos de refuerzo o sustitucion se emplean cada vez con mayor frecuencia en el tratamiento de las eventraciones. En muchas ocasiones es necesario ubicar la protesis en plano intraperitoneal, para lo cual se han disenado las llamadas protesis composite o bilaminares. En este articulo se realiza una precision terminologica, defendiendo la denominacion de protesis dual o composite para estos materiales y se relacionan las diferentes opciones comerciales disponibles en la actualidad. Las numerosas alternativas elegibles en el mercado pueden hacer que parezca al cirujano que se encuentra en un laberinto. Se anade una revision de los estudios experimentales y clinicos que avalan su utilizacion, su eficacia, su seguridad y sus complicaciones. Se concluye recomendando las protesis sobre las que existe un acervo documental mas consistente: Bard Composix, Dual Mesh, Parietex, Parietene Composite y, recientemente, Proceed. No obstante, son necesarios estudios a largo plazo y ensayos clinicos aleatorizados para proporcionar recomendaciones de mayor potencia.

Resumen Objetivo Evaluar la preparacion preoperatoria del paciente quirurgico en urgencias y mejorar asi la calidad de la atencion prestada a estos pacientes. Material y metodos Para detectar las causas de incumplimiento se utilizo el diagrama de causa-efecto de Ishikawa, de forma que se elaboraron 8 criterios (C) de evaluacion de la preparacion preoperatoria en urgencias. La primera evaluacion incluyo una muestra de 120 pacientes intervenidos de urgencia desde enero a abril de 2007. Se establecieron medidas correctoras consistentes en reuniones y charlas informativas con personal facultativo y enfermeria, recordando la importancia del consentimiento informado (CI) como documento legal que debe ser firmado por el paciente y la obligacion de proporcionar una copia de este al paciente o a los familiares. La segunda evaluacion incluye el periodo comprendido entre julio y octubre (n=120). Resultados Se detecto un incumplimiento importante de la firma del CI de cirugia del C1 (C1: todo paciente debera tener firmado el CI de cirugia correspondiente a la intervencion realizada [27,5%]) y la entrega de la copia del consentimiento tanto por cirugia del C2 (C2: todo paciente debe haber recibido una copia del CI de cirugia correspondiente a la intervencion realizada [72,5%]) como por parte de anestesia del C4 (C4: todo paciente debe haber recibido una copia del CI de anestesia correspondiente a la intervencion realizada [90%]). Tras implantar las medidas correctoras se observo una mejora significativa en el cumplimiento del C2 y del C4. En el C1 se aprecio mejora, pero sin significacion estadistica. Conclusiones La realizacion de un ciclo de mejora ha permitido alcanzar el proposito fundamental de este trabajo: mejorar en un aspecto importante de nuestra actividad clinica como es el uso de los documentos del CI y, lo que es mas importante, proporcionar una adecuada atencion e informacion a nuestros pacientes.

Resumen Introduccion La gangrena de Fournier es una fascitis necrosante que afecta habitualmente a la zona genital externa y perineal, con eventual extension al abdomen, los miembros inferiores e incluso el torax, con alta letalidad, que debe tratarse de manera agresiva en las primeras horas tras el diagnostico. Se considera que enfermedades debilitantes como la diabetes mellitus u la obesidad favorecen su aparicion. El factor desencadenante mas frecuente es el absceso perianal. Objetivo Realizar un profundo analisis descriptivo sobre los factores de riesgo y las afecciones predisponentes de la gangrena de Fournier durante toda la historia de nuestro centro, durante los ultimos 12 anos, asi como revelar la tasa de mortalidad de estos y el numero medio de reintervenciones realizadas. Material y metodos El estudio realizado analiza, de manera observacional y retrospectiva, a 20 pacientes diagnosticados de gangrena de Fournier, segun criterios de inclusion clinicos, en el Hospital General Universitario J.M. Morales Meseguer entre 1997 y 2008. Resultados La gran mayoria de los pacientes revisados eran varones, con una edad media de 61 anos. Todos tenian una importante afeccion organica de base; destacaba la diabetes mellitus. La estancia media hospitalaria fue de 25,7 dias. Fallecieron 2 pacientes y la mortalidad global fue del 10%. Conclusiones La gangrena de Fournier es una entidad que puede ser letal, que esta favorecida por distintos factores debilitantes, cuya causa desencadenante es una enfermedad perirrectal o urogenital que no ha sido tratada correctamente. Debido a su pronostico grave, un diagnostico temprano y una intervencion multidisciplinaria adecuada, temprana y agresiva son esenciales para una buena evolucion.
