Abstract: The optimal treatment for paraesophageal hiatus hernia (PEH) is controversial. While crural buttressing with mesh shows promises in reducing recurrences, the decision to use mesh during minimally invasive PEH repair is largely subjective. Due to these uncertainties, we conducted a survey to examine current clinical practices among surgeons and to assess which are the most important determinants in the decision-making process for mesh placement. Thirty-five multiple-choice Google Form-based survey on work-up, surgical techniques, and issues are considered in the decision-making process for mesh augmentation during minimally invasive PEH repair. Responses were graded on a 5-point Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Consensus was defined as > 70% of participants agreed (agree or strongly agree) on a specific statement. Overall, 292 surgeons (86% from Europe) participated in the survey. The median age of participants was 42 years (range 29-69). The median number of PEH procedures was 25/year/center (range 5-400), with 67% of participants coming from high-volume centers (> 20 procedures/year). Consensus on use of mesh was reached for intraoperative findings of large (> 50% of intrathoracic stomach) PEH (74.3%), crural gap with > 4 cm distance between right and left crus (77.1%), and/or crural atrophy with < 0.5 cm thickness of one or both pillars (73%), and for redo surgery (71.9%). Further, consensus was reached in defining recurrence as a combination of refractory symptoms and anatomical/radiological evidence of > 2 cm hernia. This survey shows that large PEH, wide crural transverse diameter, fragile crura, and redo surgery are the most influential issues driving the decision for mesh-reinforced cruroplasty.

Abstract: Background: In 2020, ACIE Appy study showed that COVID-19 pandemic heavily affected the management of patients with acute appendicitis (AA) worldwide, with an increased rate of non-operative management (NOM) strategies and a trend toward open surgery due to concern of virus transmission by laparoscopy and controversial recommendations on this issue. The aim of this study was to survey again the same group of surgeons to assess if any difference in management attitudes of AA had occurred in the later stages of the outbreak. Methods: From August 15 to September 30, 2021, an online questionnaire was sent to all 709 participants of the ACIE Appy study. The questionnaire included questions on personal protective equipment (PPE), local policies and screening for SARS-CoV-2 infection, NOM, surgical approach and disease presentations in 2021. The results were compared with the results from the previous study. Results: A total of 476 answers were collected (response rate 67.1%). Screening policies were significatively improved with most patients screened regardless of symptoms (89.5% vs. 37.4%) with PCR and antigenic test as the preferred test (74.1% vs. 26.3%). More patients tested positive before surgery and commercial systems were the preferred ones to filter smoke plumes during laparoscopy. Laparoscopic appendicectomy was the first option in the treatment of AA, with a declined use of NOM. Conclusion: Management of AA has improved in the last waves of pandemic. Increased evidence regarding SARS-COV-2 infection along with a timely healthcare systems response has been translated into tailored attitudes and a better care for patients with AA worldwide.

Abstract: Acute appendicitis remains a common reason for hospital admission. Reports have suggested a reduction in patients attending emergency departments during the acute phase of the SARSCoV- 2 pandemic. Moreover, a global surge in conservative management of acute appendicitis has recently been registered by the Appy Study of the Association of Italian Surgeons in Europe (ACIE)1. This is a treatment option that has been known for some years, although quite seldom used before the pandemic2–4. As most countries are experiencing new waves of the pandemic, the attitude of surgeons towards SARS-CoV-2 screening policies and personal protective equipment (PPE) used during the management of patients with acute appendicitis need to be established. According to a subanalysis of the ACIE Appy Study, half of surgeons globally were testing patients for SARS-CoV-2 only when symptomatic or there was suspicion of infection; approximately 12 per cent did not test patients at all (Fig. 1 and Table S1). There were regional differences. In Europe, respondents tested all patients (50.8 per cent) or those with suspected infection (43.9 per cent), with only 5.3 per cent not being tested at all. In the USA, the majority of participants only tested patients with a suspected infection (65.6 per cent). A similar picture of testing only those with a suspected infection was also reported from Latin America (57.2 per cent), Asia/Middle East (76.8 per cent), and Africa (41.7 per cent). Even more worrisome, 58.3 per cent of respondents from Africa and 27.6 per cent from Latin America were not testing patients at all before appendicectomy. Concerning the screening modality, most respondents used PCR alone or in combination with chest imaging. Serology was rarely used overall and never in Africa (Fig. 1 and Table S2 ). It is now accepted that chest imaging is not routinely required and that PCR is an accurate screening modality. Serology might, however, be useful to shed light on the disease course and previous exposure to the virus, but respondents from some countries still have restricted access to this test. In terms of PPE during appendicectomy, most African respondents did not use different PPE compared with the prepandemic period in patients who tested negative for COVID-19. More concerning is that 58.3 per cent did not use different PPE in untested patients. This differed from other regions where the rate of those not considering a change of PPE in untested patients did not exceed 22 per cent. One in 10 respondents from Latin America also reported that they were not using different PPE compared with the prepandemic phase in patients who tested positive for COVID-19. These data, and taking into account the high prevalence of acute appendicitis, leads to the conclusion that omission of routine patient screening may have contributed to local clusters among patients and threatened the safety of healthcare workers5. In this respect, it is likely that limited access to PPE explains the attitude of surgeons towards patients with unknown SARSCoV- 2 status or those infected, raising ethical concerns about the safety of surgical staff. It is of outmost importance that, even during challenging times and stress on economic stability, industrialized countries make efforts to sustain low-income countries and those with limited resources. This would ensure equal working conditions, safer treatment for patients with acute appendicitis, and better control of the pandemic

7. Combined Robotic-Assisted Bio-absorbable Mesh Placement and Gluteal Fasciocutaneous Flap Reconstruction: a Novel Technique for the Repair of a Symptomatic Perineal Hernia Following Extralevator Abdominoperineal Resection for Rectal Cancer

Abstract: Extralevator abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer has predominated over the common technique during recent years providing better oncologic results. However, extralevator abdominoperineal resection has been associated to a higher incidence of wound complications and perineal hernia. Several risk factors including preoperative pelvic radiotherapy, laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection, women, previous hysterectomy, obesity, coccygectomy, long small bowel mesentery, postoperative wound infection, and open pelvic peritoneum have been correlated to increased perineal hernia rate. Despite the minor clinical manifestation of a perineal hernia, its effect on the quality of life remains remarkable. Therefore, the surgical management of a perineal hernia after abdominoperineal resection is still a challenge for colorectal surgeons. Several techniques have been used including biologic meshes and myocutaneous flaps. Nevertheless, the ideal technique has not yet been proved. During last years, colorectal surgeons have utilized minimally invasive techniques such as robotic repair of perineal hernias. We presented the first case in the literature of a combined approach of robotic-assisted repair using a bio-absorbable mesh and a gluteal fasciocutaneous flap reconstruction. © 2021, Association of Surgeons of India.

Abstract: Background: Surgical strategies are being adapted to face the COVID-19 pandemic. Recommendations on the management of acute appendicitis have been based on expert opinion, but very little evidence is available. This study addressed that dearth with a snapshot of worldwide approaches to appendicitis. Methods: The Association of Italian Surgeons in Europe designed an online survey to assess the current attitude of surgeons globally regarding the management of patients with acute appendicitis during the pandemic. Questions were divided into baseline information, hospital organization and screening, personal protective equipment, management and surgical approach, and patient presentation before versus during the pandemic. Results: Of 744 answers, 709 (from 66 countries) were complete and were included in the analysis. Most hospitals were treating both patients with and those without COVID. There was variation in screening indications and modality used, with chest X-ray plus molecular testing (PCR) being the commonest (19·8 per cent). Conservative management of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis was used by 6·6 and 2·4 per cent respectively before, but 23·7 and 5·3 per cent, during the pandemic (both P < 0·001). One-third changed their approach from laparoscopic to open surgery owing to the popular (but evidence-lacking) advice from expert groups during the initial phase of the pandemic. No agreement on how to filter surgical smoke plume during laparoscopy was identified. There was an overall reduction in the number of patients admitted with appendicitis and one-third felt that patients who did present had more severe appendicitis than they usually observe. Conclusion: Conservative management of mild appendicitis has been possible during the pandemic. The fact that some surgeons switched to open appendicectomy may reflect the poor guidelines that emanated in the early phase of SARS-CoV-2.

11. Could FiLaC™ be effective in the treatment of anal fistulas? A systematic review of observational studies and proportional meta-analysis

Author: Frountzas, M. Stergios, K. Nikolaou, C. Bellos, I. Schizas, D. Linardoutsos, D. Kontzoglou, K. Vaos, G. Williams, A.B. Toutouzas, K.
Abstract: Aim: Fistula Laser Closure (FiLaC™) is a novel sphincter-preserving technique that is based on new technologies and shows promising results in repairing anal fistulas whilst maintaining external sphincter function. The aim of the present meta-analysis is to present the efficacy and the safety of FiLaC™ in the management of anal fistula disease. Method: The present proportional meta-analysis was designed using the PRISMA and AMSTAR guidelines. We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, clinicaltrials.gov, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials CENTRAL and Google Scholar databases from inception until November 2019. Results: Overall, eight studies were included that recruited 476 patients. The pooled success rate of the technique was 63% (95% CI 50%–75%). The pooled complication rate was 8% (95% CI 1%–18%). Sixty-six per cent of patients had a transsphincteric fistula and 60% had undergone a previous surgical intervention, mainly the insertion of a seton (54%). The majority had a cryptoglandular fistula. Operation time and follow-up period were described for each study. Conclusion: FiLaC™ seems to be an efficient therapeutic option for perianal fistula disease with an adequate level of safety that preserves quality of life. Nevertheless, randomized trials need to be designed to compare FiLaC™ with other procedures for the management of anal fistulas such as ligation of intersphincteric fistula tract, anal advancement flaps, fibrin glue, collagen paste, autologous adipose tissue, fistula plug and video-assisted anal fistula treatment.

Abstract: Colonic squamous cell carcinoma is extremely rare, with no clear pathogenesis. It usually presents as an emergency. We present the surgical management of a descending colon squamous cell carcinoma, together with a review of the available cases of colonic squamous cell carcinoma in the literature. A 69-year-old woman presented with a palpable mass and abdominal pain. She underwent ultrasound and colonoscopy, which revealed a large obstructing mass at the descending colon, the biopsies of which were not diagnostic. Unfortunately, she was readmitted with bowel obstruction and underwent extended right hemicolectomy with en-bloc excision of attached small bowel and omentum because of local mass expansion. Histopathological analysis demonstrated squamous cell carcinoma with lymph node metastases. Palliative chemotherapy followed, owing to liver and peritoneal deposits. Sixty-six cases of colonic squamous cell carcinoma have been reported in the literature. The most common location is the right colon. Most cases present at a late stage. Several theories for the pathogenesis of colonic squamous cell carcinoma have been reported; the most popular is the squamous transformation of a pluripotent stem cell. © 2020 Royal College of Surgeons of England.

13. Rectoanal repair versus suture haemorrhoidopexy: a comparative study on suture mucopexy procedures for high-grade haemorrhoids

Author: Theodoropoulos, G. E. Michalopoulos, N. V. Linardoutsos, D. and Stamopoulos, P. Flessas, I. Tsamis, D. Zografos, G. C.
Abstract: The isolated application of Doppler-guided haemorrhoidal artery ligation (DGHAL) may fail due to the increased reprolapse rate for high-grade haemorrhoids. DGHAL has been combined with a proctoscopic-assisted transanal rectal mucopexy of the prolapsing tissue. The technique is called rectoanal repair (RAR) and is an evolution of various mucopexy and suture haemorrhoidopexy (SHP) techniques. A prominent external component may require minimal (muco-) cutaneous excision (MMCE) of protruding anoderm or minor cutaneous excision of skin tags. Fifty-seven patients with symptomatic Goligher grade III and IV haemorrhoids underwent DGHAL followed by either RAR or SHP. In 26 cases, the addition of MMCE was necessary. No significant differences were observed between the two approaches with regards to pain scores measured with visual analogue scale (VAS). On postoperative day 1, mean pain score at rest was 5.81 (+/- 2.23 SD) after SHP versus 5.08 (+/- 2.35 SD) after RAR, while mean pain score at first defecation was 7.31 (+/- 1.6 SD) versus 7.52 (+/- 1.83 SD). There was no difference in the duration of analgesic requirements, postoperative complications and residual prolapse between the 2 procedures. The addition of MMCE did not affect postoperative pain nor analgesic requirements. With the exception of 8 patients who still had with skin tags or minimal protrusion, the remaining of patients (86 %) were asymptomatic and recurrence-free at an average follow-up of 20 months. Overall, 94.8 % of patients stated that they were satisfied with the results, and 91.2 % that they would repeat it if necessary. Performance of either SHP or RAR after DGHAL is a safe and effective surgical tactic for advanced grade haemorrhoids. Our initial results do not confirm any superiority of RAR over traditional SHP.

Abstract: Background Surgical strategies are being adapted to face the COVID‐19 pandemic. Recommendations on the management of acute appendicitis have been based on expert opinion, but very little evidence is available. This study addressed that dearth with a snapshot of worldwide approaches to appendicitis. Methods The Association of Italian Surgeons in Europe designed an online survey to assess the current attitude of surgeons globally regarding the management of patients with acute appendicitis during the pandemic. Questions were divided into baseline information, hospital organization and screening, personal protective equipment, management and surgical approach, and patient presentation before versus during the pandemic. Results Of 744 answers, 709 (from 66 countries) were complete and were included in the analysis. Most hospitals were treating both patients with and those without COVID. There was variation in screening indications and modality used, with chest X‐ray plus molecular testing (PCR) being the commonest (19·8 per cent). Conservative management of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis was used by 6·6 and 2·4 per cent respectively before, but 23·7 and 5·3 per cent, during the pandemic (both P, The COVID‐19 pandemic required reorganization of surgical services, affecting patients with common surgical diseases including acute appendicitis. No evidence is available on the topic. This study found global variation in screening policies, use of personal protective equipment and intraoperative directives. There has been increased adoption of non‐operative management and open appendicectomy. Hands off

Abstract: Background In 2020, ACIE Appy study showed that COVID-19 pandemic heavily affected the management of patients with acute appendicitis (AA) worldwide, with an increased rate of non-operative management (NOM) strategies and a trend toward open surgery due to concern of virus transmission by laparoscopy and controversial recommendations on this issue. The aim of this study was to survey again the same group of surgeons to assess if any difference in management attitudes of AA had occurred in the later stages of the outbreak. Methods From August 15 to September 30, 2021, an online questionnaire was sent to all 709 participants of the ACIE Appy study. The questionnaire included questions on personal protective equipment (PPE), local policies and screening for SARS-CoV-2 infection, NOM, surgical approach and disease presentations in 2021. The results were compared with the results from the previous study. Results A total of 476 answers were collected (response rate 67.1%). Screening policies were significatively improved with most patients screened regardless of symptoms (89.5% vs. 37.4%) with PCR and antigenic test as the preferred test (74.1% vs. 26.3%). More patients tested positive before surgery and commercial systems were the preferred ones to filter smoke plumes during laparoscopy. Laparoscopic appendicectomy was the first option in the treatment of AA, with a declined use of NOM. Conclusion Management of AA has improved in the last waves of pandemic. Increased evidence regarding SARS-COV-2 infection along with a timely healthcare systems response has been translated into tailored attitudes and a better care for patients with AA worldwide.

Subjects: Humans, Herniorrhaphy methods, Herniorrhaphy adverse effects, Observational Studies as Topic, Plastic Surgery Procedures methods, Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic, Recurrence, Surgical Wound Infection, Abdominal Wall surgery, Surgical Mesh
Abstract: Purpose: Biologic meshes had been the first choice for abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR) in contaminated surgical fields. However, due to increased cost and questioned effectiveness, synthetic meshes have been also implemented. The aim of the present meta-analysis was to compare synthetic and biologic mesh in terms of recurrence and postoperative outcomes., Methods: The present meta-analysis was designed using the PRISMA guidelines. A search in Medline, Scopus, EMBASE, Clinicaltrials.gov, Google Scholar and Cochrane CENTRAL was conducted from inception until September 2024. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and observational studies which compared the use of biologic and synthetic mesh for AWR in contaminated surgical fields were included. Data were extracted by two experienced researchers in pre-defined electronic forms. Pooled odds ratios (OR) and mean differences (MD) were calculated using a random-effects model. Included RCTs were assessed using the Risk of Bias 2 (RoB2) tool and non-randomized trials with the Risk of Bias in non-Randomized Trials (RoBINS-I) tool., Results: Overall 11 studies were included which enrolled 1,945 patients. Subgroup analysis of RCTs indicated significantly lower recurrence rates for synthetic compared to biologic mesh (p < 0.0001) with a similar follow-up (p = 0.07). Nevertheless, no difference was demonstrated in surgical site infection (SSI) rates. Although synthetic mesh was associated with shorter length of stay, the other postoperative outcomes (surgical site occurrences, mesh infections, readmissions, reoperations) were similar among the two groups., Conclusion: Synthetic mesh should be considered as a safe and effective option for abdominal wall reconstruction in contaminated surgical fields compared to biologic mesh. Nevertheless, future research is expected to investigate cost-effectiveness of biosynthetic meshes, as alternative option in such surgical fields., Competing Interests: Declarations.

Abstract: Laparoscopic surgery is a well-established approach in the surgical treatment of reflux, hiatal hernia and esophageal motility disorders such as achalasia. Robotic platforms have only recently been incorporated in surgery for esophageal motility disorders and their exact value remains to be determined. In the present study, we present the preliminary results of our early experience with a case series of benign upper gastrointestinal diseases treated using the robotic system in our department. Data on all consecutive patients undergoing surgery for benign upper gastrointestinal tract (UGI) disease during the last 5 years (01/2029-12/2023) was prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. All patients attended regular follow-up appointments. Patients with relapse or deterioration of their symptoms were referred for objective testing using high-resolution manometry and/or 24-h impedance pHmetry. A total of 34 patients were included in our series. Fourteen patients with achalasia underwent robotic Heller myotomy and modified Dor fundoplication, sixteen patients underwent hiatal hernia repair with fundoplication and four patients had a Nissen fundoplication for reflux esophagitis. The median postoperative Eckardt score of the patients treated for achalasia was 2 and a median GERD score of 1 was recorded for patients treated for reflux. Two patients with achalasia were evaluated with manometry due to temporary symptom relapse. The manometric findings were unremarkable. The incorporation of the robotic approach in the surgical treatment of benign UGI diseases is safe and feasible with excellent perioperative and postoperative functional results. Further experience and investigation will allow for reliable comparison to the laparoscopic approach., Competing Interests: Declarations.

19. Saliva stress biomarkers in ERCP trainees before and after familiarisation with ERCP on a virtual simulator.

Author: Georgiou K, Boyanov N, Thanasas D, Sandblom G, Linardoutsos D, and Enochsson L
Abstract: Background: Stress during the early ERCP learning curve may interfere with acquisition of skills during training. The purpose of this study was to compare stress biomarkers in the saliva of trainees before and after familiarisation with ERCP exercises on a virtual simulator., Methods: Altogether 26 endoscopists under training, 14 women and 12 men, completed the three phases of this study: Phase 1. Three different ERCP procedures were performed on the simulator. Saliva for α-amylase (sAA), Chromogranin A (sCgA), and Cortisol (sC) were collected before (baseline), halfway through the exercise (ex.), and 10 min after completion of the exercise (comp.); Phase 2. A three-week familiarisation period where at least 30 different cases were performed on the virtual ERCP simulator; and Phase 3. Identical to Phase 1 where saliva samples were once again collected at baseline, during, and after the exercise. Percentage differences in biomarker levels between baseline and exercise (Diff ex ) and between baseline and completion (Diff comp ) during Phase 1 and Phase 3 were calculated for each stress marker., Results: Mean % changes, Diff ex and Diff comp , were significantly positive ( p < 0.05) for all markers in both Phase 1 and Phase 3. Diff ex in Phase 1 was significantly greater than Diff ex in Phase 3 ( p < 0.05) for sAA and sCgA. Diff comp for sAA in Phase 1 was significantly greater than Diff comp in Phase 3 ( p < 0.05). No significant differences were found in sC concentration between Phases 1 and 3., Conclusion: This study shows that familiarisation with the ERCP simulator greatly reduced stress as measured by the three saliva stress biomarkers used with sAA being the best. It also suggests that familiarisation with an ERCP simulator might reduce stress in the clinical setting., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest. The author(s) declared that they were an editorial board member of Frontiers, at the time of submission. This had no impact on the peer review process and the final decision., (© 2024 Georgiou, Boyanov, Thanasas, Sandblom, Linardoutsos and Enochsson.)

Abstract: Bladder cancer (BlCa) is an extensively heterogeneous disease that leads to great variability in tumor evolution scenarios and lifelong patient surveillance, emphasizing the need for modern, minimally invasive precision medicine. Here, we explored the clinical significance of copy number alterations (CNAs) in BlCa. CNA profiling was performed in 15 patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) and validated in The Cancer Genome Atlas BlCa (TCGA-BLCA; n = 408) and Lindgren et al. ( n = 143) cohorts. CDKN2A copy number loss was identified as the most frequent CNA in bladder tumors, associated with reduced CDKN2A expression, tumors of a papillary phenotype, and prolonged PDX survival. The study's screening cohort consisted of 243 BlCa patients, and CDKN2A copy number was assessed in genomic DNA and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from 217 tumors and 189 pre-treatment serum samples, respectively. CDKN2A copy number loss was correlated with superior disease-free and progression-free survival of non-muscle-invasive BlCa (NMIBC) patients. Moreover, a higher CDKN2A index ( CDKN2A/LEP ratio) in pre-treatment cfDNA was associated with advanced tumor stage and grade and short-term NMIBC progression to invasive disease, while multivariate models fitted for CDKN2A index in pre-treatment cfDNA offered superior risk stratification of T1/high-grade and EORTC high-risk patients, enhancing prediction of treatment outcome. CDKN2A copy number status could serve as a minimally invasive tool to improve risk stratification and support personalized prognosis in BlCa., Competing Interests: The authors declare no competing interests., (© 2024 The Author(s).)

Abstract: Background and Objectives : Inflammation and dysregulation in the intestinal barrier function in acute pancreatitis (AP) trigger pancreatic lesions, systemic inflammatory response, and multiple organ dysfunction. Eugenol, as the main component of clove (Syzygium aromaticum), is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the potentially beneficial effect of eugenol in a rodent model of biliopancreatic duct ligation-induced AP. Materials and Methods : Rats were randomly divided into three groups: Sham, AP, and AP + eugenol (15 mg/kg/day). Serum TNFα, IL-6, IL-18, and resistin levels, as well as IL-6, TNFα, MPO, HMGB1, and CD45 tissue expression, were determined at various timepoints after the induction of AP. Results : Eugenol attenuated hyperemia and inflammatory cell infiltration in the intestinal mucosal, submucosal, and muscular layers. IL-6 and resistin serum levels were significantly reduced in the AP + eugenol group, while serum TNFα and IL-18 levels remained unaffected overall. TNFα pancreatic and intestinal expression was attenuated by eugenol at 72 h, while IL-6 expression was affected only in the pancreas. MPO, CD45, and HMGB1 intestinal expression was significantly reduced in eugenol-treated rats. Conclusions : Eugenol managed to attenuate the inflammatory response in the intestine in duct ligation-induced AP in rats.

Abstract: Human tissue kallikrein (KLK1) and is related peptidases (KLK2-KLK15) are a family of 15 homologous serine proteases, participating in numerous processes of normal physiology. Considering the irreversible impact of proteases on substrates, the tissue-dependent regulation of KLKs activity becomes crucial for their beneficial role in normal homeostasis. Moreover, KLKs expression is strongly regulated at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional level by steroid hormones and miRNAs, respectively. Deregulation of KLKs expression, secretion and/or activation has been observed in most human malignancies and there is a trend to identify their role in the multi-complex process of cancer development. The identification of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, cell-surface receptors, cell-surface adhesion molecules and growth factors among substrates, clearly support the driving role of KLK abnormal expression and function during tumorigenesis and cancer progression. KLKs have also clinical utility in cancer diagnosis and monitoring like KLK 3 (PSA) in prostate cancer. In this review, we tried to summarize the existing literature about the role of KLKs in gastrointestinal cancers as well as to emphasize their clinical significance for patients' prognosis.

Abstract: Submucosal hemorrhoidectomy (Parks' procedure) is a recognized method for treating acute hemorrhoidal crisis. Anoderm preservation has been stressed in various techniques described for elective or emergency excisional hemorrhoidal management. Mucopexy techniques have been proven useful as an adjunct to minimally resectional techniques. A modified submucosal technique with anoderm preservation and mucopexy was applied to 45 patients who presented on an emergency basis with hemorrhoidal crisis. External piles were minimally removed, the minimum possible amount of diseased mucosa was excised, a linear incision was used at the anoderm to enter the subanodermal/mucosal plane to achieve the submucosal excision, and a mucopexy was added at the approximation of the mucosal flaps. Postoperative morbidity was minimal and pain after the procedure remained at acceptable levels. This technique allows for an excision limited to the pathology with important anatomic tissue preservation. This results in conservation of the sensitive and useful anoderm, a decreased risk of stenosis, and addresses the mucosal prolapse. The level of postoperative pain with this technique is acceptable and long-term follow-up reveals a high degree of patient satisfaction.

28. Routine abdominal drains after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: a retrospective review of 353 patients.

Abstract: Complications after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are usually silent and difficult to interpret. Our purpose was to evaluate the utility of routine placement of intraperitoneal drains at the end of LSG in detection and management of postoperative complications. This is a retrospective study of all patients that underwent LSG by a standard operative team in a 3-year period. Patients were enrolled in Group A when an intraperitoneal drain was placed and Group B when not. Three hundred and fifty-three patients underwent LSG with a median preoperative BMI of 46.4 k/m2. Two hundred and one patients were enrolled in group A and 152 in group B; the two groups were comparable in their characteristics. Staple line leak, bleeding, and abscess were observed in 4%, 2.9%, and 2.5% of group A and 2.6%, 1.9%, and 1.9% of group B and the differences did not reach statistical significance. In 50% of patients with drain and leak, per os blue de methylene test was negative and in another 50% leak took place after the fourth postoperative day when drain was already taken off. Abscesses were observed significantly more often in patients that had suffered postoperative bleeding (p < 0.001) or had undergone laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) in the past (p = 0.02). Placement of drains does not facilitate detection of leak, abscess, or bleeding. Furthermore, they don't seem to eliminate the reoperation rates for these complications. Maybe patients with previous LAGB and intraperitoneal bleeding could benefit from placement of a drain that will remain for more than 5 days.

Abstract: We report a case of jejunoileal intussusception in a 42-year-old patient with Crohn's disease caused by a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The patient complained of vague diffuse abdominal pain for a period of 4 mo. Intussusception was suspected at computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans. Segmental resection of the small intestine was performed. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen revealed a gastrointestinal stromal tumor as well as aphthous ulcerations and areas of inflammation, which were characteristic of Crohn's disease. This is the first report of small bowel intussusception due to a gastrointestinal stromal tumor coexisting with Crohn's disease., (2009 The WJG Press and Baishideng. All rights reserved.)
