AbstractThe laparoscopic approach is considered as standard practice in patients with body-tail pancreatic neoplasms. However, only a few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and propensity score matching (PSM) studies have been performed. Thus, additional studies are needed to obtain more robust evidence. This is a single-centre propensity score-matched study including patients who underwent laparoscopic (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) with splenectomy for pancreatic neoplasms. Demographic, intra, postoperative and oncological data were collected. The primary endpoint was the length of hospital stay. The secondary endpoints included the assessment of the operative findings, postoperative outcomes, oncological outcomes (only in the subset of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-PDAC) and total costs. In total, 205 patients were analysed: 105 (51.2%) undergoing an open approach and 100 (48.8%) a laparoscopic approach. After PSM, two well-balanced groups of 75 patients were analysed and showed a shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.001), a lower blood loss (P = 0.032), a reduced rate of postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) and decreased total costs (P = 0.050) after LDP with respect to ODP. Regarding the subset of patients with PDAC, 22 patients were analysed: they showed a significant shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.050) and a reduction in postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) after LDP with respect to ODP. Oncological outcomes were similar. LDP showed lower hospital stay and postoperative morbidity rate than ODP both in the entire population and in patients affected by PDAC. Total costs were reduced only in the entire population. Oncological outcomes were comparable in PDAC patients.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Internal hernias caused by broad ligament defects are an infrequent cause of bowel obstruction. These defects may be congenital or acquired mainly by gynecological antecedents. Small bowel is the most common affected and the diagnosis is difficult due to nonspecific symptoms and absences of characteristic radiological signs. MATERIAL AND METHODS We report the cases of three women aged from 43 to 56 years old, who came to the emergency with abdominal pain, vomiting and bloating of hours duration. One patient has a history of laparoscopic appendectomy, the rest of them with no surgical history. In all of the cases, x-rays showed dilatation of small bowel loops and air-fluid levels and the abdominal TC revealed a generalized distention of bowel loops with transition point in the terminal ileum with no identifiable cause compatible with small bowel obstruction. RESULTS We decided to perform an urgent surgery with an exploratory laparotomy in one case and the rest by laparoscopic approach, finding an internal hernia occasioned by incarceration of small bowel through a broad ligament defect. In all cases, the hernia content was liberated without evidence of ischemia with no need for intestinal resection, and the defect was closed. All patients had a favourable postoperative course without complications. DISCUSSION Broad ligament defects are a rare cause of internal hernias. These are difficult to diagnose clinically as well as radiologically for an absence of characteristic signs. A high level of clinical suspicion allows early diagnosis and the treatment should be performed as soon as possible to reduce the chances of intestinal necrosis.

Background Retained surgical foreign bodies (RFB) are associated with inferior clinical and financial outcomes. The present work examined a nationally representative sample of all major operations to identify factors associated with RFB. Study Design The 2005-2017 National Inpatient Sample was used to identify adults undergoing cardiac, neurosurgical, orthopedic, genitourinary, gastrointestinal, vascular, and thoracic operations. International Classifications of Diseases 9th-10th Revisions diagnosis codes were used to identify instances of RFB. Results Of an estimated 71,445,042 hospitalizations, .02% had a diagnosis of RFB, with decreasing incidence from .03 to .02% over the study period (NPtrend < .001). Relative to vascular operations, gastrointestinal (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.12), thoracic (AOR 1.80), and multi-cavity (AOR 2.17) were associated with greater odds of RFB. Laparoscopic approach (AOR .33) and trauma-associated admission (AOR .52, all P < .001) were associated with reduced odds of RFB. Despite similar mortality, RFB was associated with increased odds of pulmonary infection (AOR 1.62), sepsis (AOR 1.26), and wound infection (AOR 5.15), as well as a 2.3-day increment in length of stay and $7700 in hospitalization costs (all P < .001). Conclusion The development of novel mitigation strategies may reduce the incidence of RFB in high-risk populations, such as those undergoing gastrointestinal, thoracic, and multi-cavity operations.
