Objective: To analyze the role of damage control in surgery in severely injured and polytrauma patients. D e s i g n:Descriptive study. S e t t i n g : Surgical unit of District Headquarter (teaching) Hospital, Rawalpindi. P e r i o d : January 2000 to December 2007.Patients a n d m e t h o d s : This study included 28 severely injured patients who presented in the accident and emergency department ofDistrict Headquarters (teaching) Hospital, Rawalpindi. These patients were unstable because of life threatening hemorrhage following someblunt or penetrating trauma. After immediate shifting to operation theater, resuscitation and operative intervention was done simultaneously.Different procedures of damage control surgery like abdominal packing for hepatic and pelvic trauma, major vascular ligation for vascularinjuries of neck and extremities were adopted in phase I. In phase II patients were managed in ITC for coagulopathy and hypothermia.Definitive treatment was done in Phase III after 24-72 hours once patients got stable. R e s u l t s : Total 28 patients included in the study. In18 patients abdominal packing for hepatic injury (n=11) and pelvic fractures (n=7) was done. Major vascular ligations in n=11 and temporaryintestinal clamping in n=1 patient. Planned re-exploration after 24-72 hours in n=16 and unplanned re-exploration within 24 hours in n=5patients was done. Complications included ongoing hemorrhage (n=5), coagulopathy (n=2), controlled biliary fistula (n=1), abdominalcompartment syndrome (n=1), cerebral ischemia (n=1) and gangrene of abdominal wall (n=1). Two patients died.

Two mastocytomas of the liver of sheep are described. The specimens were obtained during a survey of hepatic neoplasia that was conducted on abattoir-slaughtered sheep. Although tissues other than the liver were not examined, both tumours had metastasised, one to the portohepatic lymph node, and the other intrahepatically. It is believed that this is the first report of mastocytoma in this species.

Secondary Biliary Cirrhosis

Introduction: Mucormycosis refers to a group of opportunistic mycoses that occur generally in immunocompromised patients and are caused by Mucorales, ubiquitous filamentous fungi with broad, thin-walled, sparsely septate, ribbon-like hyphae. Case report: A 57-year-old man with a history of secondary biliary cirrhosis due to inadvertent bile duct injury during cholecystectomy. He was referred to our center and underwent LT on June 2018. Due to severe coagulopathy he underwent exploratory laparotomy and abdominal packing for 48 hours. He recovered with good liver function and LFT´s with a tendency towards normalization. On post op day 8 the patient presented an episode of fever and a CT scan was performed showing a large zone of hypoperfusion with bubbles of gas in the liver dome. A percutaneous biopsy was taken for cultures. Preliminary results reported a filamentous fungus and liposomal amphotericin b was initiated with the suspicion of mucormycosis. The patient remained afebrile and asymptomatic. After 5 days of treatment a new image was performed, and progression of the lesion was noticed, due to these findings the patient was taken to the OR for surgical debridement. Involvement of the liver dome and diaphragm was noticed and a non-anatomic hepatectomy was performed. After surgery the patient required increasing amounts of vasopressors. Despite all the support he progressed to multiple organic failure and finally expired. The product of hepatectomy confirmed the diagnosis of mucormycosis (Rhizopus sp). Discussion: Despite all the efforts the patients’ clinical condition deteriorated after surgery showing the high mortality rate in liver transplant recipients that has been reported of 50 to 100%.
