Summary. The purpose was to study the features and results of redo laparoscopic antireflux surgery in our clinic. Materials and methods. For the period from 2008 to 2019, in our clinic, laparoscopic antireflux operations were performed in 1164 patients. 54 patients underwent laparoscopic reoperation during the study period based on the following indications: recurrence of hiatal hernia (n = 38), recurrent reflux (n = 4), dysphagia (n = 8), severe pain (n = 5). All patients underwent repeated examinations in our clinic, telephone interviews, mailing of special questionnaires. All complaints were recorded, the quality of life was determined according to the GERD-HRQL questionnaire. Results. All redo operations were performed laparoscopically without conversion to laparotomy. Intraoperative complications were observed in 11.11 % of patients. Long-term follow up from 6 months to 6 years was observed in 90.74 % of patients. The quality of life of patients according to the GERD-HRQL questionnaire significantly improved in long-term follow-up (p <0.001). Good results were observed in 91.84 % of patients after redo operations. The third operation was needed in 5.6 % of patients. Conclusion. Redo laparoscopic antireflux operations are technically difficult surgical interventions, and should be performed by surgeons with big experience in the antireflux surgery. Laparoscopic antireflux surgery provide good long-term results in 90 % of patients.

Aim. Compare the short-term and long-term results of the traditional and original methods of terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy with subtotal resection of the pancreatic head.Materials and methods. The results of subtotal resection of the pancreatic head in 20 patients with chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic duct obstruction at the level of the head are analyzed. In 10 cases at the final stage of the operation, the traditional terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy was performed, in 10 – in the original way.Results. Biliary tract decompression was performed in 65% of patients. The average duration of operation from original terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy operation was 170 min. [165; 180], intraoperative blood loss – 210 ml [200; 240], the average duration of postoperative hospital stay – 16 days [14; 17]; there were no mortality. After 5 years, in all patients who underwent the original terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy, the expressiveness of pain according to the developed ten-point scale was <4 points. Frequency for the first time diagnosed diabetes was 50–60%. The need for enzyme drugs was noted in 37.5–40% of cases. The frequency of complications requiring repeated surgical interventions is 12%, persistent disability – 50%. The quality of life indicators for Medical Outcome Study Short Form-36 and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire – C30 exceeded those of the traditional method of completing the surgery by 3.9–8.4% and 9.3–16.7%.Conclusion. The original way of a single-row terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy with subtotal resection of the pancreatic head allows to reduce averages operative time and postoperative hospital stay. The risk of hemorrhagic complications from the resected pancreatic head does not decrease (10%). After 5 years, an insignificant advantage of the original method of terminoterminal pancreaticojejunostomy compared with the traditional one was noted. The incidence of permanent disability was 15% less, the quality of life indicators for the Medical Outcome Study Short Form-36 and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire – C30 were better.

Abstract Purpose: Advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care have improved patients' short-and mid-term postoperative outcomes with Biliary Atresia (BA). However, the long-term results of these patients have not been thoroughly investigated. This systematic review aims to determine the long-term outcomes and the patients' health-related Quality of life (HrQoL) with their native livers or liver transplantation. Methods: A systematic literature-based search for relevant cohorts was performed using Pubmed/Medline, Cochrane Library from its inception to August 2021. Original studies reporting on BA, Hepatoportoenterostomie, portoenterostomy, Kasai, Liver transplantation, Quality of life, or HrQoL were included. Pooled prevalence has been calculated for cholangitis, secondary liver transplantation, or associated malformations using MetaXL (version 5.3). Subgroup analysis on HrQoL followed surgical treatment after BA was calculated by using RevMan (version 5.4).Results: 12 articles were considered for data synthesis. Nine studies compared biliary atresia patients to an age-matched healthy reference group. 4/9 (n = 338) of these studies indicated lower scores for biliary atresia patients; 5/9 (n = 127) stated similar health status. A Forest plot analysis including all studies with total HrQoL showed a tendency of higher scores towards healthy controls (MD -0.79, 95% CI: -6.00-4.41). Comparing patients after Kasai Hepatoportoenterostomy with healthy controls demonstrated favorable outcomes for the control group (MD -3.22, 95% CI: -7.20-0.75) with no statistical significance (p = 0.11). The pooled estimation of the prevalence of cholangitis, secondary liver transplantation and associated malformations are 0.33 (95% CI: 0.06–0.66), 0.59 (95% CI: 0,42–0.75) and 0.13 (95% CI: 0,01–0.33).Conclusion: Biliary atresia patients have an overall high prevalence of progressive liver-related complications and risk of lower HrQoL compared to their healthy peers. Furthermore, those patients who received liver transplantation appear to have the same Quality of life as those living with their native livers. Targeted and evidence-based follow-up procedures and transitional care are essential to meet these patients' long-term care needs. Prospective and multicenter research das focuses on the attributes and predictors of the long-term prognosis of patients with biliary atresia are necessary.
