Globally, CKD is also increasing in prevalence and incidence. The two principal kidney measures namely estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria have been found to be predictors of renal and cardiovascular (CV) endpoints including peripheral artery disease (PAD). The prevalence of PAD was increased in CKD patients and, particularly, in patients with more severe CKD stages. Despite the fact that revascularization strategies are suitable in CKD patients in similar fashion to non-CKD patients, few CKD patients underwent these procedures. In fact, if it is true that revascularization improves prognosis in PAD patients irrespective of baseline eGFR, it was also demonstrated that CKD patients, who underwent revascularization, were at higher risk for amputations, mortality, re-intervention and perioperative complications. With the present review article, we have examined the association between CKD, PAD and peripheral revascularization highlighting data about epidemiology, pathophysiologic mechanisms, and results from previous observational and intervention studies. We have also examined the future perspectives and challenges of research around the association between CKD and PAD.Keywords: chronic kidney disease, CKD, peripheral artery disease, PAD, ESKD, amputations, albuminuria

Abstract

Background: The spread of the SARS-CoV2 virus, which causes COVID-19 disease, profoundly impacted the surgical community. Recommendations have been published to manage patients needing surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic. This survey, under the aegis of the Italian Society of Endoscopic Surgery, aims to analyze how Italian surgeons have changed their practice during the pandemic. Methods: The authors designed an online survey that was circulated for completion to the Italian departments of general surgery registered in the Italian Ministry of Health database in December 2020. Questions were divided into three sections: hospital organization, screening policies, and safety profile of the surgical operation. The investigation periods were divided into the Italian pandemic phases I (March–May 2020), II (June–September 2020), and III (October–December 2020). Results: Of 447 invited departments, 226 answered the survey. Most hospitals were treating both COVID-19-positive and -negative patients. The reduction in effective beds dedicated to surgical activity was significant, affecting 59% of the responding units. 12.4% of the respondents in phase I, 2.6% in phase II, and 7.7% in phase III reported that their surgical unit had been closed. 51.4%, 23.5%, and 47.8% of the respondents had at least one colleague reassigned to non-surgical COVID-19 activities during the three phases. There has been a reduction in elective (> 200 procedures: 2.1%, 20.6% and 9.9% in the three phases, respectively) and emergency (< 20 procedures: 43.3%, 27.1%, 36.5% in the three phases, respectively) surgical activity. The use of laparoscopy also had a setback in phase I (25.8% performed less than 20% of elective procedures through laparoscopy). 60.6% of the respondents used a smoke evacuation device during laparoscopy in phase I, 61.6% in phase II, and 64.2% in phase III. Almost all responders (82.8% vs. 93.2% vs. 92.7%) in each analyzed period did not modify or reduce the use of high-energ

Abstract

Background The spread of the SARS-CoV2 virus, which causes COVID-19 disease, profoundly impacted the surgical community. Recommendations have been published to manage patients needing surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic. This survey, under the aegis of the Italian Society of Endoscopic Surgery, aims to analyze how Italian surgeons have changed their practice during the pandemic. Methods The authors designed an online survey that was circulated for completion to the Italian departments of general surgery registered in the Italian Ministry of Health database in December 2020. Questions were divided into three sections: hospital organization, screening policies, and safety profile of the surgical operation. The investigation periods were divided into the Italian pandemic phases I (March–May 2020), II (June–September 2020), and III (October–December 2020). Results Of 447 invited departments, 226 answered the survey. Most hospitals were treating both COVID-19-positive and -negative patients. The reduction in effective beds dedicated to surgical activity was significant, affecting 59% of the responding units. 12.4% of the respondents in phase I, 2.6% in phase II, and 7.7% in phase III reported that their surgical unit had been closed. 51.4%, 23.5%, and 47.8% of the respondents had at least one colleague reassigned to non-surgical COVID-19 activities during the three phases. There has been a reduction in elective (> 200 procedures: 2.1%, 20.6% and 9.9% in the three phases, respectively) and emergency ( Conclusion This survey offers three faithful snapshots of how the surgical community has reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic during its three phases. The significant reduction in surgical activity indicates that better health policies and more evidence-based guidelines are needed to make up for lost time and surgery not performed during the pandemic.

Abstract

Ancient Schwannoma is a type of peripheral neurogenic tumor formed by the Schwann cells presenting mainly as a benign and asymptomatic lesion. The neurilemmoma tumor appears in different sites and, in cases of cervical location, can mimic a carotid body tumor. Herein we describe a clinical case of a 51-year-old woman with latero-cervical swelling. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a classical wineglass image mimicking a carotid body tumor. During surgery the tumor appeared connected to the cervical sympathetic trunk without carotid involvement. The histological exam confirmed the nature of the mass which consisted of an ancient schwannoma. A subsequent systematic review of the literature on ancient schwannoma incidence and treatment confirms it being a benign and rare lesion primarily treatable with open surgery. KEY WORDS: Ancient Schwannoma, Carotid body tumor, Carotid artery, Vascular surgery.

Subjects
Adrenal gland, Adrenocortical carcinoma, Conversion to open surgery
Abstract

Two different primary malignancies can arise from the adrenal gland: the adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) from the adrenal cortex and the malignant pheochromocytoma from the adrenal medulla. Both malignancies are extremely rare. ACC has an estimated incidence of 0.5-2% new cases per million people per year. We present the case of a 55-year-old male affected by a non-characterized right adrenal gland lesion. The lesion (9x7 cm of diameter) was discovered accidentally by performing an abdominal ultrasound for gallstones. Then the patient performed a MRI in order to better characterize the lesion. We performed an open adrenalectomy (OA) for suspected malignancy of the right adrenal gland mass. We review the literature to assess if there is still a role for open surgery in the treatment of malignant tumors of the adrenal gland.

Subjects
serum phosphate level, HIV1, tenofovir
Abstract

Purpose of the study There is concern that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and the use of highly active antiretro- viral therapy lead to cumulative toxicity. Tenofovir (TDF) is the first choice for most subjects. Even if it has a safe metabolic profile, much attention has been fixed on kidney tubular function and regulation of phosphate metabolism. We performed this study to evaluate the role of a TDF based regimen has on renal tubular over time. Methods Prospective, cross-sectional, single centre study was car- ried out. 121 HIV-1-infected patients were consecutively enrolled in six groups based on duration of TDF exposi- tion: G0, from 6 to 12 months; G1 from 13 to 24 months; G2 from 25 to 36 months; G3 from 37 to 48 months; G4 more than 48 months and G5 under HAART but never exposed to TDF. Glomerular func- tion was assessed using creatinine clearance (CrCL) cal- culated by MDRD. Tubular function was assessed using fractional excretion ratio of phosphate and normalized renal threshold phosphate concentration. Demographic, CD4, serum phosphate levels, viral load were collected. Summary of results A total of 121 consecutive HIV-1-infected patients were analyzed: 15 in G0, 11 in G1, 14 in G2, 32 in G3, 35 in G4 and 14 in G5. Mean of TDF exposure was 10.26, 21.4, 36.2, 47.3 and 67.4 months in G0, G1, G2, G3 and G4 respectively. There was no statistically significant dif- ference of mean values of FEP(11.2, 10.3, 8.4, 9.8, 11.1 and 10% in G0, G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5 respectively), TmPO4/GFR (3.5, 3.5, 3.6, 3.6, 3.4 and 3.4 mg/dl in G0, G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5 respectively ), CrCL (102.2, 94.3, 92.9, 106.5, 103.1 and 101.6 ml/min/1.73m2 in G0, G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5 respectively) and serum phos- phate levels (3.4, 3.3, 3.1, 3.5, 3.3 and 3.4 in G0, G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5 respectively) between groups. Moreover, we did not find correlation of FEP (r:0.04, p:0.6) and TmPO4/GFR (r:0.05, p:0.5) with duration of TDF therapy. Conclusions Treatment with TDF is not associated with altered kid- ney tubular function and serum phosphate levels over time.

ophthalmic artery resistance index (OARI), highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), HIV1, cardiovascular system, intima media thickness (IMT)
Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated whether ophthalmic artery resistance index (OARI) is related to intima media thickness (IMT) of common carotid artery. Our hypothesis was that OARI could be an index of occlusive carotid artery disease and an early predictor of atherosclerosis in HIV-1 infected patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Methods: We enrolled 88 consecutive HIV-1-infected patients in a cross sectional study. All patients were receiving HAART for more than twelve months. OARI and IMT was measured by ultrasonography, using a 7.5 mHz linear probe. Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the independent association between the carotid IMT and OARI adjusting for various risk factors. The most discriminant cutoffs were calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results: For all patients OARI correlated well with carotid IMT (r = +0.56, p< 0.0001). Using the average IMT as the dependent variables in regression analysis, OARI was the independent factor associated with carotid IMT. ROC curves indicated that the most discriminant OARI value for predicting a clinically significant increase of IMT was >0.74 (sensitivity 86.7%, specificity 82.2%, AUC 0.87, p=0.0001). Conclusions: Our data indicate that ultrasonographic OARI measure- ment may have a potential to be a marker of increased endothelial damage and it could be used as an early predictor of IMT increase in HIV- 1-infected patients. As a consequence, a periodic screening for vascular resistance indexes should be considered mandatory in HIV-1-infected patients receiving HAART and it could identify patients at major risk to develop cardiovascular disease.

Abstract

Scopo dello Studio Abbiamo valutato se lo spessore del grasso perirenale (PRFD), un parametro dell’obesità centrale, è collegato con l’indice di resistenza dell’arteria oftalmica (OARI), indice di malattia occlusiva del- l’arteria carotica. Il PRFD potrebbe essere un indice predittivo precoce di aterosclerosi in pazienti HIV-1+ che ricevono la terapia antiretrovirale altamente attiva (HAART). Metodi 144 oggetti successivi sono stati arruolati in quattro gruppi: pazienti HIV+ con obesità centrale (gruppo A, n = 38), pazienti HIV+ senza obesità centrale (gruppo B, n = 50), pazienti HIV-1 ne- gativi con obesità centrale (gruppo C, n = 30) ed individui sani (gruppo D, n = 30). La diagnosi di obesità centrale è stata basata sul rapporto di PRFD/BMI > 0.22 secondo i nostri dati recente- mente pubblicati. OARI è stato misurato usando un esame ecografico con sonda lineare da 7.5 megahertz. L’analisi di regressione logistica è stata usata per valutare l’associazione indipendente fra l’OARI e il PRFD. Risultati La media di OARI negli oggetti con obesità centrale era considerevolmente superiore a quella negli soggetti senza (0.73±0.04, gruppo A; 0.69±0.03, gruppo B; 0.74±0.04, gruppo C; 0.68±0.04, gruppo D) senza riguardo alla positività per HIV. Abbiamo dimostrato una correlazione positive tra OARI e PRFD (r = +0.52, p

Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated whether perirenal fat diameter (PRFD), a parameter of central obesity, is related to ophthalmic artery resistance index (OARI), index of occlusive carotid artery disease. Our hypothesis was that PRFD could be an early predictor of atherosclerosis in HIV-1 infected patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Methods: 144 consecutive subjects were enrolled into four groups: HIV+ patients with central obesity (group A, n = 38), HIV+ patients without central obesity (group B, n = 50), HIV-1-negative patients with central obesity (group C, n = 30) and healthy subjects (group D, n = 30). Diagnosis of central obesity was based on PRFD/BMI ratio > 0.22 using 3.75 mHz convex transducer, according to our published data. OARI was measured using a 7.5 mHz linear probe scanning through closed eyelid. Demographic characteristics and metabolic variables were compared between groups by ANOVA. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the independent association between the OARI and PRFD adjusting for various risk factors. Results: The mean of OARI in subjects with central obesity was considerably higher than that in subjects without (0.73±0.04, group A; 0.69±0.03, group B; 0.74±0.04, group C; 0.68±0.04, group D) regardless of HIV status. We further found a positive correlation between OARI and PRFD (r = +0.52, p< 0.0001). Using the average OARI as the dependent variable, age (Odds Ratio 1.13, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.23) and PRFD (Odds Ratio 1.44, 95%CI 1.12 to 1.85) were independent factors associated to OARI. Conclusions: Our data indicate that ultrasonographic assessment of PRFD may have a potential to be a marker of increased endothelial damage with specific involvement of ocular vascular district. As a consequence, a periodic screening for visceral obesity should be considered mandatory in HIV-1-infected patients receiving HAART and it could identify patients at major risk to develop cardiovascular disease.

Abstract

Purpose To compare early postoperative outcomes after transversus abdominis release (TAR) for ventral hernia repair with open (oTAR) and robotic (rTAR) approach. Methods A systematic search of PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS and Web of Science databases was conducted to identify comparative studies until October 2020. A meta-analysis of postoperative short-term outcomes was performed including complications rate, operative time, length of stay, surgical site infection (SSI), surgical site occurrence (SSO), SSO requiring intervention (SSOPI), systemic complications, readmission, and reoperation rates as measure outcomes. Results Six retrospective studies were included in the analysis with a total of 831 patients who underwent rTAR (n = 237) and oTAR (n = 594). Robotic TAR was associated with lower risk of complications rate (9.3 vs 20.7%, OR 0.358, 95% CI 0.218–0.589, p p = 0.02), lower risk of developing systemic complications (6.3 vs 26.5%, OR 0.208, 95% CI 0.100–0.433, p p p Conclusion Robotic TAR improves recovery by adding the benefits of minimally invasive procedures when compared to open surgery. Although postoperative complications appear to decrease with a robotic approach, further studies are needed to support the real long-term and cost-effective advantages.

Abstract

Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging is widely used in abdominal surgery. The implementation of minimally invasive rectal surgery using new methods like robotics or a transanal approach required improvement of optical systems. In that setting, ICG fluorescence optimizes intraoperative vision of anatomical structures by improving blood and lymphatic flow. The purpose of this review was to summarize all potential applications of this upcoming technology in rectal cancer surgery. Each type of use has been separately addressed and the evidence was investigated. During rectal resection, ICG fluorescence angiography is mainly used to evaluate the perfusion of the colonic stump in order to reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks. In addition, ICG fluorescence imaging allows easy visualization of organs such as the ureter or urethra to protect them from injury. This intraoperative technology is a valuable tool for conducting lymph node dissection along the iliac lymphatic chain or to better identifying the rectal dissection planes when a transanal approach is performed. This is an overview of the applications of ICG fluorescence imaging in current surgical practice and a synthesis of the results obtained from the literature. Although further studies are need to investigate the real clinical benefits, these findings may enhance use of ICG fluorescence in current clinical practice and stimulate future research on new applications.

Abstract

Background: Bladder cancer is the eleventh most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. The recurrence rate of this cancer can be very high, up to 45%. Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) is more sensitive than standard procedures for the detection of malignant tumours. The aim of the study was to evaluate oncological outcomes in white light TURB (WL-TURB) and hexaminolevuninate blue light TURB (Hal-TURB). Patients and methods: This was a retrospective longitudinal single-center study. In the period between January 2016 and October 2016 WL-TURB was the only therapeutic option available. From November 2016 until April 2017 all TURBs were fluorescence-guided (Hal-TURB). Kaplan-Meier curves have been used to estimate recurrence free survival rates. Results: One hundred and eleven patients underwent Hal- TURB and 137 underwent WL-TURB. Recurrence rate after 12 months was 19.8% (22 out of 111 patients) and 37.2% (51 out of 137 patients) in HAL-group and WL-group respectively (p < 0.01). The recurrence-free period was longer in HAL-group rather than WL-group (8.9 months vs 7.3 months, p < 0.05). Moreover, the recurrence rate during the first 6 months was 3.7% in patients who underwent HAL-TURB and 16% in those who received WL-TURB (p < 0.01). Conclusion: The results of the study show that recurrence-free survival was longer in patients undergoing HAL-TURB compared to the patients who received standard WL-TURB.

Abstract

In this study, the effect of passive- and active-modified atmosphere packaging (PMA and MAP with 70% N2 and 30% CO2) using semipermeable and barrier films on physicochemical and enzymatic properties and quality of freshly shelled walnut kernels stored at 6 °C for 18 days were investigated. Changes in physicochemical such as free fatty acidity content, peroxide value, colour and enzymatic traits such as polyphenol oxidase, lipoxygenase were tracked in the fresh kernels during cold storage in different packaging systems. The MAP system inhibited polyphenol oxidase activity, delayed browning of tegumented kernels, and helped in maintaining a high total polyphenol content. The PMA system preserved membrane integrity by inhibiting lipoxygenase activity and malondialdehyde accumulation with values of 3.26 ± 0.05 nmol hydroperoxides min−1 g−1 dry weight and 10.90 ± 0.50 nmol g−1 dry weight, respectively after 18 days of cold storage. Moreover, this system inhibited free fatty acid formation and it was characterised by lower peroxide values with 5.17 ± 0.04 mEq O2 kg−1 oil at the end of storage. Principal component analysis provided a global view of the differential qualitative responses of fresh walnut kernels in different packaging systems during cold storage. Our results show that packaging systems could be utilised to extend postharvest shelf life, improve qualitative traits, and inhibit enzyme-mediated browning of fresh kernel walnuts during cold storage.

Abstract

Mixed adeno-neuroendocrine cancer (MANEC) term was introduced for the first time in WHO Classification of Gastrointestinal tumors in 2010. It represents a very rare neoplasm assessing about the 0.2% of all gastrointestinal cancer. The perioperative management is very challenging because of the poor knowledge of the biology of this cancer and the relative impossibility to make a diagnosis only by the biopsy during the colonoscopy. In this paper we present the case of a 83- year- old woman affected by right colon sited neoplasm with liver metastasis, which resulted to be a MANEC. The patient underwent to laparoscopic right colectomy and wedge resection of liver metastasis. The post-operative period was uneventful, and the patient was fit to be discharged at third post-operative day. A literature review about the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of right colon sited MANEC has been carried out and only eight papers about right sited MANEC have been found.

Abstract

Primary (PVHs) and incisional (IHs) ventral hernias represent a common indication for surgery. Nevertheless, most of the papers presented in literature analyze both types of defect together, thus potentially introducing a bias in the results of interpretation. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to highlight the differences between these two entities. Methods MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were reviewed to identify studies evaluating the outcomes of both open and laparoscopic repair with mesh of PVHs vs IHs. Search was restricted to English language literature. Risk of bias was assessed with MINORS score. Primary outcome was recurrence, and secondary outcomes were baseline characteristics and intraoperative and postoperative data. Fixed effects model was used unless significant heterogeneity, assessed with the Higgins I square (I2), was encountered. The search resulted in 783 hits, after screening; 11 retrospective trials were selected including 38,727 patients. Mean MINORS of included trials was 15.2 (range 5–21). The estimated pooled proportion difference for recurrence was − 0.09 (− 0.11; − 0.07) between the two groups in favor of the PVH group. On metanalysis, PVHs were smaller in area and diameters, affected younger and less comorbid patients, and were more frequently singular; the operative time and length of stay was quicker. Other complications did not differ significantly. Our paper supports the hypothesis that PVH and IH are different conditions with the latter being more challenging to treat. Accordingly, EHS classifications should be adopted systematically as well as pooling data analysis should be no longer performed in clinical trials.

Abstract

Leiomyoma of the bladder is a very rare disorder that accounts for 0.43% of all bladder neoplasms. Although the pathophysiology of the bladder leiomyoma is unknown, there are some theories on it. The patients can be asymptomatic; when present, clinical symptoms (lower urinary tract symptoms and\or hematuria), are associated with tumor size and location. For diagnosis, imaging plays an important role: ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the examinations most frequently performed. Treatment consists of surgical removal of the tumor, and the prognosis is excellent.

Abstract

Background: Crohn&rsquo, s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease frequently associated with malabsorption and secondary protein-energy malnutrition (PEM). Methods: Biochemical and clinical data of 63 (34 females, 29 males) patients with PEM due to CD sent to our outpatient unit for nutritional evaluation were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups, according to disease activity. Thirty-eight patients (group A) had the active disease, and 25 patients (group B) suffered from malabsorption resulting from past intestinal resections due to CD. After a physical and hemato-biochemical evaluation at the first visit, all patients received disease-specific personalized dietetic indications. When indicated, oral nutritional supplements, oral/parenteral vitamins, micronutrients, and electrolytes, up to parenteral nutrition, were prescribed. Results: After 1, 3, and 6 months of nutritional therapy, body weight, body mass index (BMI), and serum butyryl-cholinesterase significantly improved in both groups. In 8 out of 13 (61.5%) patients with a cutaneous stoma, intestinal continuity was restored. Conclusions: This study confirms the effectiveness of nutritional rehabilitation and provides information on the time required for nutritional treatment in patients with CD, both during the acute phase and after malabsorption due to intestinal resection.

Abstract

Background Ruptured mycotic aneurysms are an extremely rare complication of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) immunotherapy. Several cases involving various arterial sites, mostly in the thoracic or abdominal aorta, have been described in the literature. BCG immunotherapy rarely causes false aneurysms and open surgical repair using an in situ prosthetic graft is most commonly performed. Further to this, targeted antituberculous treatment is required for at least one year following surgery. Methods A 69-year-old man presented at our clinic with fever, lower back pain and malaise. One year before admission he was treated, again, with intravesical BCG for recurrence of a carcinoma. Results A large infected pseudoaneurysm of 115mm was treated with the implantation of an aortouniiliac endoprosthesis followed by a crossover femoro-femoral bypass and surgical resection of the mass via an retroperitoneal approach. Conclusions Endovascular repair can be considered a valid option in an emergency. A hybrid approach was chosen due to the need for urgent action and the poor condition of the patient who was haemodynamically unstable. In particular, the implantation of an aortouniiliac endoprosthesis at the level of the contralateral iliac axis allowed us to avoid the release of an endoprosthesis at the infected area level. Close patient follow-up with clinical evaluation every three months and a CT-scan yearlyis mandatory following the intervention and during antibiotic therapy. A systematic review of the literature has been subsequently carried out on this specific clinical case, highlighting 47 cases described from 1988.

Abstract

Background Castleman’s disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown etiology that most commonly presents as a mediastinal nodal mass. It is exceptionally uncommon for Castleman’s disease to present in the mesentery and, only 53 cases have ever been described in the literature. Standard treatment for this lymphoproliferative disorder involving a single node is a complete “en bloc” surgical resection which has proven to be a curative approach in almost all cases without recurrence after 20 years of follow up. All 53 reported cases of mesenteric Castleman’s disease, except one, were treated with laparotomy. Case presentation We report on a case of mesenteric Castleman’s disease localized in the mesentery which is the second reported case if its kind and was treated by a laparoscopic-assisted procedure. Our female patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged in the 5th post-operative day. No signs of recurrence were present as evidenced by physical examination and total body CT scan 24 months after the operation. We compare our case with the other reported cases in which Castleman’s disease presented as an isolated mass in the abdomen. Conclusion Although a rare disease, Unicentric Castleman’s disease should always be considered when a solid asymptomatic abdominal mass is occasionally presented. The laparoscopic approach (LA) allows for the achievement of better results than open surgery, including a reduction in postoperative pain and length of hospital stay. In cases of masses of an uncertain nature, LA must be considered the last diagnostic tool and the first treatment one.

Abstract

Introduction: In inguinal hernia repair, many complications are due to mesh fixation technique. Therefore, new types of atraumatic methods of fixation have been proposed. In this article, we present the results of a prospective multicentric parallel randomized controlled trial aiming to compare two mesh fixation techniques: fibrin sealant (QUIXIL ®, Omrix Biopharmaceuticals S.A., Belgium) and Lichtenstein technique. Method: Adult patients with primary uncomplicated inguinal hernia were randomized in two groups: fibrin sealant group (FSG) and Lichtenstein group (LTG). The two groups underwent a follow-up of 15 months. Operative time is the primary outcome. Intraoperative and postoperative outcomes were analyzed. Moreover, a differential cost analysis was performed. Patients and evaluators (with exception of the surgeon who treated the patient) were blinded. Results: A total of 102 patients, 50 in FSG and 52 in LTG, were enrolled from January 2009 to June 2010, and two patients were lost to follow-up at the twelfth month. No significant differences in baseline and clinical characteristics were observed in the two groups. Operative time was longer in LTG (median/ interquartile range: 35 min/30-42.5 min vs. 31 min/28-35 min; effect size: 0.65/95 % CI 0.50-0.91; p < 0.05). No differences in intraoperative complications were observed. No significant differences were observed in early complication rate (RR = 0.62; p > 0.05). Numbness rate was lower in the FSG at 1 week (RR = 0.43; p < 0.01) and at 1 month (RR = 0.17; p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed after 6 months. Postoperative pain was lower in the FSG at 1 week (0/0-1 vs. 1/0-2; p < 0.05) and at 1 month (0/0-0 vs. 0/0-1; p < 0.05). Pain disappeared in all patients after 6 months. Analgesic assumption rate was lower in the FSG (RR = 0.42; p < 0.05). Twenty per cent of FSG and 9.62 % of LTG patients were discharged within 12 h; 78 % of FSG and 90.38 % of LTG patients were discharged within 24 h. The only one recurrence we observed was in FSG group. About costs, although fibrin sealant needed for one mesh fixation is about 10 times more costly than the needed sutures, the total costs of the two procedures did not change significantly. This was mainly due to reduction in operative time. Conclusions: The use of fibrin sealant determined a significant reduction in short-term numbness rate and postoperative pain. There was no relevant difference in total costs per patient between the two procedures. © 2012 Springer-Verlag France.

Abstract

Purpose of the study Metabolic syndrome represent a cluster of cardiovascu- lar risk factors that has become a serious problem for HIV-1-infected patients. It was proposed that distur- bances in phosphate metabolism may represent a key feature of metabolic syndrome. Because phosphate is involved directly in carbohydrate metabolism, hypopho- sphatemia can results in impaired utilization of glucose, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. Thus, we undertook the present study to investigate the relation- ship between phosphate levels and the presence of the characteristics of metabolic syndrome, as well as the mechanism that may be responsible for reduced phos- phate levels in patients with this syndrome. Methods 130 HIV-1-infected patients were consecutively enrolled in a prospective, cross-sectional, single centre study. All patients were receiving HAART for more than six months. We selected two groups: HIV+ patients with metabolic syndrome (group A, n=86) and HIV+ patients without metabolic syndrome (group B, n=44). The diag- nosis of metabolic syndrome was based on Adult Treat- ment Panel III guidelines. Demographic characteristics, metabolic variables, duration of Tenofovir therapy, dura- tion of HAART, CD4 and viral load were collected. Kid- ney tubular function was examined using tubular resorption of phosphate and normalized renal threshold phosphate concentration. Summary of results Patients with metabolic syndrome showed significantly lower phosphate (3.13 mg/dl vs 3.55 mg/dl, p

Abstract

The aim of this systematic review is to identify patient-related, perioperative and technical risk factors for esophago-jejunal anastomotic leakage (EJAL) in patients undergoing total gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC). A comprehensive literature search of PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase and Scopus databases was performed. Studies providing factors predictive of EJAL by uni- and multivariate analysis or an estimate of association between EJAL and related risk factors were included. All studies were assessed for methodological quality, and a narrative synthesis of the results was performed. A total of 16 studies were included in the systematic review, with a total of 42,489 patients who underwent gastrectomy with esophago-jejunal anastomosis. Age, BMI, impaired respiratory function, prognostic nutritional index (PNI), alcohol consumption, chronic renal failure, diabetes and mixed-type histology were identified as patient-related risk factors for EJAL at multivariate analysis. Likewise, among operative factors, laparoscopic approach, anastomosis type, additional organ resection, blood loss, intraoperative time and surgeon experience were found to be predictive factors for the development of EJAL. In clinical setting, we are able to identify several risk factors for EJAL. This can improve the recognition of higher-risk patients and their outcomes.

Abstract

Background: The surgical management of concomitant occurrence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and colorectal cancer (CRC) is still controversial. Conversely, benefits from a minimally invasive approach are well known concerning the treatment of both AAA and CRC. The aim of this study is to assess safety and feasibility of a sequential 2-staged minimally invasive during the same recovery by endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) technique and laparoscopic colorectal resection., Methods: From January 2008 to December 2020, all patients with concomitant AAA and CRC were consecutively treated by EVAR and laparoscopic colorectal resection. Perioperative data were retrospectively collected in order to evaluate short- and long-term outcomes following the sequential 2-staged procedures., Results: A total of 24 patients were included. The localization of the aneurysm was infrarenal abdominal aortic in 23 cases and in one case of common iliac artery. EVAR procedure has always been performed first. In 18 patients, a percutaneous access has been used while in 6 patients a surgical access has been adopted. Twelve patients had cancer in the left colon, 9 in the right colon, and 3 patients had rectal cancer. No conversions or intraoperative complications had occurred during laparoscopic surgery. The major complications rate after EVAR and CRC surgery was 8.3% and 12.5%, respectively. The mean interval between EVAR and CRC treatment was 7.8 ± 1 and the mean length of stay was 15.4 ± 3.6. No deaths occurred during hospitalization and between the procedures. Overall mortality was 20.8% with a mean follow-up of 39.41 ± 19.2 months., Conclusion: Elective sequential 2-staged minimally invasive treatment is a safe and feasible approach with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates and it should be adopted in current clinical practice to manage concomitant AAA and CRC., (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract

Background: The endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a successful treatment for aorto-iliac aneurysms. The success of EVAR is enhanced by the use of devices that maintain the patency of targeted arteries namely the iliac branch device (IBD) With this study we aimed to evaluate the association between the use of Jotec E-ventus during EVAR with IBD and prognosis in patients with aorto-iliac aneurysms., Methods: This is a retrospective, multicentric study enrolling patients referred to our Vascular Surgery Units from January 2015 to January 2020. All patients underwent EVAR with IBD using Jotec E-ventus as bridging stent. Primary endpoint was the development of types I and III endoleaks. Secondary endpoint was the onset of device occlusion with loss of vascular patency., Results: We studied 32 patients (mean age 71.7±4.5y). Of these, 25 patients were treated with standard EVAR procedure whereas 7 were treated with isolated IBD due to extension of disease involving iliac bifurcation. Median follow-up lasted 15[IQR11-27] months. During follow-up, incidence rates for endoleaks and occlusion were 3.98(95%CI 0.48-14.41) and 1.99(95%CI 0.05-11.12) per 100 pts/year., Conclusions: Jotec E-ventus during EVAR is associated with a low rate of severe complications in a small cohort of patients with aorto-iliac aneurysms., (Copyright © 2021.

Abstract

Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging is widely used in abdominal surgery. The implementation of minimally invasive rectal surgery using new methods like robotics or a transanal approach required improvement of optical systems. In that setting, ICG fluorescence optimizes intraoperative vision of anatomical structures by improving blood and lymphatic flow. The purpose of this review was to summarize all potential applications of this upcoming technology in rectal cancer surgery. Each type of use has been separately addressed and the evidence was investigated. During rectal resection, ICG fluorescence angiography is mainly used to evaluate the perfusion of the colonic stump in order to reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks. In addition, ICG fluorescence imaging allows easy visualization of organs such as the ureter or urethra to protect them from injury. This intraoperative technology is a valuable tool for conducting lymph node dissection along the iliac lymphatic chain or to better identifying the rectal dissection planes when a transanal approach is performed. This is an overview of the applications of ICG fluorescence imaging in current surgical practice and a synthesis of the results obtained from the literature. Although further studies are need to investigate the real clinical benefits, these findings may enhance use of ICG fluorescence in current clinical practice and stimulate future research on new applications., Competing Interests: Conflict-of-interest statement: Authors declare no conflict of interests for this article., (©The Author(s) 2021.

Abstract

Background: Inguinal hernia (IH) is a major problem in general surgery and its prevalence is increasing. The presence of hernias has been associated with a wide spectrum of venous diseases, with the involvement of imbalances in collagen and extracellular matrix deposition and metalloproteinases dysfunction. We aimed to evaluate whether the association between IH and vascular diseases is also present with respect to arterial diseases., Methods: We designed a cross-sectional observational study enrolling consecutive patients undergoing surgical repair of IH. Arterial diseases (AD) considered were carotid stenosis, peripheral artery disease and abdominal aortic aneurysms., Results: Study population consisted of 70 patients. Mean age was 63.2 ± 4.7 years. Prevalence of AD was 42.9% in the whole cohort. AD patients were older ( p = 0.015), and more frequently had hypertension ( p = 0.001) and active smoking habits ( p = 0.001) than the no-AD group. Albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was higher in AD than in no-AD patients ( p < 0.001). At multivariable analysis, increased ACR (odds ratio, OR: 1.14, p < 0.001), old age (OR: 1.25, p = 0.001) and a smoking habit (OR: 3.20, p = 0.001) were significant correlates for the presence of AD., Conclusions: Prevalence of AD in patients with IH is non-negligible. Old age, a smoking habit and an abnormal excretion of urine albumin are associated with the presence of AD in these patients. Future studies are needed to gain more insights into the pathogenic mechanisms underlying this association, exploring also the specific role of metalloproteinases.

Abstract

Background: Venous aneurysms are long-term complications of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for hemodialysis with an estimated incidence rate of around 5-6%. The purpose of our study is to investigate the role of immunosuppressive therapy in the development of AVF aneurysms in renal transplant patients, and to determine whether AVF closure following transplantation is necessary., Methods: Forty-six patients with symptomatic venous AVF aneurysms underwent ligation and resection of their fistulas between January 2013 and January 2020. Immunohistochemical expression of CD3, CD4, and CD8 was assessed on the surgical specimens to characterize lymphocytic infiltrate in the aneurysm wall. Patients were subdivided into "Group A"-kidney transplant patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy which was comprised of 39 patients and "Group B"-patients who had not undergone kidney transplant which was comprised of 7 patients. The 2 groups did not significantly differ in age, sex nor risk factors for aneurysms., Results: Group A showed a significantly higher aneurysm diameter (P < 0.0001), mean flow (P < 0.0001) and required a longer duration of surgery (P = 0.0007). A CD3+ lymphocytic infiltrate was significantly more common in Group A than in the Group B (90% vs 29%; P < 0.001). No significant differences in localization (adventitia, media or intima) and type (CD4+ vs CD8+) of lymphocytes were found between the 2 groups., Conclusion: AVF venous aneurysms were significantly larger and with a more intense T-lymphocytic infiltrate in patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy. This finding suggests that immunosuppressive therapy plays a role in aneurysm formation, supporting the need for AVF closure in patients with an estimated low risk of rejection., (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract

Background: Bladder cancer is the eleventh most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. The recurrence rate of this cancer can be very high, up to 45%. Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) is more sensitive than standard procedures for the detection of malignant tumours. The aim of the study was to evaluate oncological outcomes in white light TURB (WL-TURB) and hexaminolevuninate blue light TURB (Hal-TURB)., Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective longitudinal single-center study. In the period between January 2016 and October 2016 WL-TURB was the only therapeutic option available. From November 2016 until April 2017 all TURBs were fluorescence-guided (Hal-TURB). Kaplan-Meier curves have been used to estimate recurrence free survival rates., Results: One hundred and eleven patients underwent Hal- TURB and 137 underwent WL-TURB. Recurrence rate after 12 months was 19.8% (22 out of 111 patients) and 37.2% (51 out of 137 patients) in HAL-group and WL-group respectively (p < 0.01). The recurrence-free period was longer in HAL-group rather than WL-group (8.9 months vs 7.3 months, p < 0.05). Moreover, the recurrence rate during the first 6 months was 3.7% in patients who underwent HAL-TURB and 16% in those who received WL-TURB (p < 0.01)., Conclusion: The results of the study show that recurrence-free survival was longer in patients undergoing HAL-TURB compared to the patients who received standard WL-TURB.

Abstract

Surgical access complications during endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) are reported relatively frequent. HARMONIC FOCUS ® (HF; Ethicon Endo-Surgery Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio, USA) is a device developed to improve bleeding control and reduce heat-related damage stemming from surgical preparation. The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes and safety of HF versus conventional haemostasis with electrocautery, both techniques used in the same patient. Five patients developed bilateral wound's thickening (13.9%) demonstrated at the CT scan, two of whom had no clinical manifestation while in three cases the thickening was associated with lymphocele (4.54%), 2 of which were in the side where the EC was used (5.5%), and 1 case (2.7%), in the HF applied side. One isolated lymphocele occurred at the left groin (2.7%) (tables n.2-3). A Fisher's exact test was conducted between EC and HF on the occurrence of wound healing complications (3/36 for EC and 1/36 for HF) that resulted statistically significant at p<0.05. Focus Harmonic Scalpel has certain advantages than conventional haemostasis in avoiding surgical access complications.

Abstract

Ancient Schwannoma is a type of peripheral neurogenic tumor formed by the Schwann cells presenting mainly as a benign and asymptomatic lesion. The neurilemmoma tumor appears in different sites and, in cases of cervical location, can mimic a carotid body tumor. Herein we describe a clinical case of a 51-year-old woman with latero-cervical swelling. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a classical wineglass image mimicking a carotid body tumor. During surgery the tumor appeared connected to the cervical sympathetic trunk without carotid involvement. The histological exam confirmed the nature of the mass which consisted of an ancient schwannoma. A subsequent systematic review of the literature on ancient schwannoma incidence and treatment confirms it being a benign and rare lesion primarily treatable with open surgery.

Abstract

Background: Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease frequently associated with malabsorption and secondary protein-energy malnutrition (PEM)., Methods: Biochemical and clinical data of 63 (34 females, 29 males) patients with PEM due to CD sent to our outpatient unit for nutritional evaluation were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups, according to disease activity. Thirty-eight patients (group A) had the active disease, and 25 patients (group B) suffered from malabsorption resulting from past intestinal resections due to CD. After a physical and hemato-biochemical evaluation at the first visit, all patients received disease-specific personalized dietetic indications. When indicated, oral nutritional supplements, oral/parenteral vitamins, micronutrients, and electrolytes, up to parenteral nutrition, were prescribed., Results: After 1, 3, and 6 months of nutritional therapy, body weight, body mass index (BMI), and serum butyryl-cholinesterase significantly improved in both groups. In 8 out of 13 (61.5%) patients with a cutaneous stoma, intestinal continuity was restored., Conclusions: This study confirms the effectiveness of nutritional rehabilitation and provides information on the time required for nutritional treatment in patients with CD, both during the acute phase and after malabsorption due to intestinal resection.
