Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a marker of severe disease. It occurs as combination of inflammation of retroperitoneum, visceral edema, ascites, acute peripancreatic fluid collections, paralytic ileus, and aggressive fluid resuscitation. The frequency of ACS in SAP may be rising due to more aggressive fluid resuscitation, a trend towards conservative treatment, and attempts to use a minimally invasive approach. There remains uncertainty about the most appropriate surgical technique for the treatment of ACS in SAP. Some unresolved questions remain including medical treatment, indications, timing, and interventional techniques. This review will focus on interventional treatment of this serious condition. First line therapy is conservative treatment aiming to decrease IAP and to restore organ dysfunction. If nonoperative measures are not effective, early abdominal decompression is mandatory. Midline laparostomy seems to be method of choice. Since it carries significant morbidity we need randomized studies to establish firm advantages over other described techniques. After ACS resolves efforts should be made to achieve early primary fascia closure. Additional data are necessary to resolve uncertainties regarding ideal timing and indication for operative treatment.

BACKGROUND: Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) remain a complex problem of abdominal surgery. To date, the pathophysiological mechanisms, methods for determining intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) the frequency of its measurement, and the methods of conservative and surgical more and more researchers consider surgical decompression as a treatment. AIMS: Аnalysis of the results of the implementation of monitoring of intra-abdominal pressure and its impact on the outcomes of treatment of patients with severe acute pancreatitis and acute colon obstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A study of 397 patients with emergency abdominal pathology including 197 with acute obstructive obstruction of the colon (AOOC), 200 severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) was performed. Patients (n=201) were included in the I (main) group, which was carried out using IAP as the main criterion for assessing the patient`s condition and when choosing a method of treatment, in II ― without taking then into account and monitoring. Measurement of IAP, blood lactate was determined primarily, then alternatively 4 to 6 hours. The survey included the study of biochemical indicators, endoscopic methods, visualization (ultrasound scanning, CT of the abdominal cavity organs). RESULTS: In the I group of IAH patients, I and II degrees were in 73.13%, in the II group in 79.5% IAH III and IV degrees, respectively, in 26.87% and 21.5% (p0.05). Measurement of IAP was carried out according to the I.L. Kron method, repeated measurement depending on the degree of IAH after 46 hours, simultaneously, as a predictor of internal ischemia, determined the level of lactate in blood and perfusion abdominal pressure. An algorithm for early diagnosis is suggested excess intraabdominal pressure. For I and II, the degree of IAH was treated with aggressive conservative therapy, with failure of intensive therapy III of IAH degree surgical treatment, with IV degree IAH emergency decompressive laparotomy. In the I group, the mortality was significantly lower than in the II group: IAH at III, with AOOC 27.7% and 50%, respectively (p0.05), at SAP 37.5% and 80% (p0.01), respectively, at IV degree IAH for AOOC 75% and 90% (p0.05), with SAP 75% and 88,8% (p0.05) respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The results of treatment of patients with IAH can be improved by its early diagnosis, intensive, aggressive therapy of IAH IIII degrees. At IAH I, II degrees conservative treatment is shown, persistent aggressive conservative treatment should be performed at IAH III degree, if it is unsuccessful and IV degree of IAH, an emergency decompressive laparotomy should be performed.

Introduction: The laparoscopic approach to repairing ventral and incisional hernias has gained increasing popularity worldwide. The approximation of the hernia defect during laparoscopic ventral hernia repair, prior to mesh fixation, provides a more physiologic and anatomic repair. Defect closure also provides more defect overlap with mesh placement and, possibly decreases recurrence rates. We reviewed the experience of laparoscopic repair of large ventral hernia (diameter ≥5cm) at a university hospital in the Nepal with particular reference to patients with massive defects (diameter ≥15cm) and transfascial closure.Methods: A total of 32 patients underwent laparoscopic ventral (incisional or umbilical/paraumbilical) hernia repair between July 2014 and September 2015.Results: The prevalence of conversion to open surgery was 3.1%. The prevalence of postoperative complications was 15.6%. Median postoperative follow-up was 8.2 months. A total of 9.4% cases suffered late complications and 3.1% developed recurrence. Twelve patients underwent repair of defects ≥10cm in diameter with no recurrence. Three patients underwent repair of ‘massive’ incisional hernia (diameter ≥15cm) with a prevalence of recurrence of 3.1%. Ten patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥30kg/m2 (range, 32–35kg/m2) underwent laparoscopic repair without any recurrence.Conclusions: Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair with transfascial suturing can be carried out safely with a low prevalence of recurrence. It may have advantages in obese patients in whom open repair would represent a significant undertaking. Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair may be used in cases of large and massive hernias, in which the risk of recurrence increases but is comparable with open repair and associated with low morbidity.

Tóm tắt Đặt vấn đề: Chấn thương (CT) gan là chấn thương bụng kín thường gặp. Cho tới nay, hơn 80% CT gan được điều trị bảo tồn. Tuy nhiên có nhiều biến chứng xảy ra trong quá trình theo dõi và điều trị bảo tồn. Tăng áp lực ổ bụng (TALOB) là một trong những biến chứng nặng đe dọa đến tính mạng người bệnh lại chưa được nghiên cứu nhiều. Phương pháp nghiên cứu: Nghiên cứu mô tả hồi cứu trên các bệnh nhân được chẩn đoán chấn thương gan có tăng áp lực ổ bụng được điều trị và hoặc phẫu thuật tại khoa Phẫu thuật cấp cứu bụng, bệnh viện Hữu nghị Việt Đức từ 2016 – 2018. Kết quả: Có 10 bệnh nhân đủ tiêu chuẩn nghiên cứu, trong đó có 07 bệnh nhân (BN) nam (70%), 03 BN nữ (30%). Tuổi trung bình của nhóm nghiên cứu là 40,7 (tuổi lớn nhất là 69, tuổi nhỏ nhất là 20). Tai nạn giao thông (TNGT) chiếm 20%, tai nạn lao động (TNLĐ) chiếm 60%, tai nạn sinh hoạt (TNSH) chiếm 20%. Thời gian xảy ra TALOB sau chấn thương gan từ 3 đến 10 ngày chiếm 80%, sau tai nạn từ 1 đến 3 ngày có 2 BN chiếm 20%. 100% các trường hợp có dấu hiệu bụng chướng căng, thở nhanh nông, suy hô hấp, bão hòa oxy (SpO2) dao động từ 60 - 90% là 9 NB (90%), có 1 NB SpO2 < 60%, 4 NB sốt 38,5 độ, 4 NB có HA < 90 mmHg, 4 trường hợp hồng cầu < 2,5 triệu, 5 NB hematocrit < 25%, men gan tăng cao 100% các trường hợp. Chụp cắt lớp vi tính (CLVT) ổ bụng: CT gan phải: 60%, CT gan phải và gan trái: 40%, có 80% CT gan độ IV, 20% CT gan độ III, 70% có đường vỡ > 10cm (7 NB). Có 6 trường hợp TALOB (60%), 2 trường hợp TALOB và rò mật, 2 trường hợp TALOB và viêm phúc mạc mật. Trong đó có 8 BN được chọ hút dịch ổ bụng dưới siêu âm, 01 BN được thực hiện phẫu thuật nội soi hút rửa dẫn lưu ổ bụng, 01 BN được mổ mở làm sạch, lau rửa, dẫn lưu ổ bụng. Kết luận: Tăng áp lực ổ bụng là biến chứng nặng sau điều trị bảo tồn chấn thương gan thường xảy ra với tỷ lệ cao: sau 3 ngày đến 10 ngày sau tai nạn (80%). 100% các trường hợp đều có suy hô hấp nặng (khó thở, bão hòa oxy giảm thấp) và thở máy trước khi can thiệp hoặc phẫu thuật. Các biện pháp can thiệp giảm ALOB như dẫn lưu dưới siêu âm, phẫu thuật nội soi hoặc mổ mở làm giảm biến chứng và tử vong. Abstract Introduction: The proportion of conservation treatment of live injury is more than 80,0% and the late complications post hepatic injury (intra abdominal compartment syndrome, persistent bleeding, bile fistula, choleperitonitis, hepatic necrosis) occurred with high proportion. However the intra abdominal compartment syndrome (IACS) could be lethal but not reported enough. We therefore conduct a study to evaluate the results of diagnosis as well as management of IACS regarding the treatment of hepatic injury such as the conservative treatment, conventional surgery and laparoscopic surgery Material and Methods: Retrospective descriptive study. All the patients diagnosed hepatic injury complicated IACS have been treated or operated on in the department of abdominal emergencies at Viet Duc University Hospital during 2016 -2018 were enrolled. Results: 10 patients met with the criteria selection, 7 men (70,0%), 3 women (30,0%), the mean age was 40,7 (range 20 - 69). Road traffic accident were 20%, occupational accident 60%, and leisure accident 20%. Time from onset to complication happened: from 3 days to ten days post injury was 80,0%, before 3 days was 20,0% (two patients). Serious abdominal distention and rapid breathing or respiratory distress accounting for 100%, SpO2 were between 60-90% in 9 patients (90%), one had SpO2 < 60%, four patients had fever as high as 38,5 celsius degree, four patients had hypotension < 90 mmHg, four patients had anemia with red blood cell < 2,5, five patients had hematocrit < 25%, and hypertransaminesia accounting for 100%. Findings from CT scanner are: The right hepatic injury was 60,0%, combined right-left hepatic injury was 40,0%, the grade IV was 80,0% and grade III 20%, rupture size were above 10cm in 7 patients. There were 6 cases with IACS (60%), other two had IACS complicated bile fistula, two had IACS complicated choleperitonitis. Treatment: 8 patients who were underwent a drainage under ultrasound, 01 patient: laparoscopic surgery due to choleperitonitis and 01 patient: laparotomy and drainage due to bile fistula. Conclusion: The intraabdominal compartment syndrome is a serious complication after the conservative treatment of hepatic injury, happened from 3 day to ten day post injury by 80,0%.m100% developed respiratory distress with low SpO2, were mechanical ventilation before the operation or intervention. Some procedures of treatment such as drainage under ultrasound, laparoscopic and drainage, laparotomy and drainage can reduce rate of complication and mortality.
