Background: Surgery is the mainstay of the treatment for perforated duodenal ulcer by closing the perforation with or without omental patch. There are no controversies in the surgical treatment of perforated duodenal ulcer but the best approach to surgery is still debatable. Advances in minimal access surgery has made it possible to close the perforated duodenal ulcer laparoscopically. The present study was conducted to compare the results of open and laparoscopic repair of perforated duodenal ulcer in terms of operative time, postoperative pain, hospital stay, and post-operative complications etc.Methods: The study was conducted in Dr. V. M. Government Medical College and Hospital located in Solapur (Maharashtra) from December 2008 to December 2010. It was a prospective comparative study. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups alternately where group A and B were operated by conventional and laparoscopic techniques respectively and their outcomes were compared.Results: Most commonly affected age in this study was 51 to 60 years with male preponderance. Post-operative pain, analgesic requirement, wound infection, hospital stay, was significantly less in laparoscopic group as compared to open group (p<0.05).Conclusions: Laparoscopic repair of perforated duodenal ulcer is safe and feasible in properly selected patients and has superior results as compared to open surgery.

Background: Open appendectomy has been the gold standard for the treatment of acute appendicitis since its introduction by Charles Mc Burney in 1889.The introduction of laparoscopic surgery has dramatically changed the field of surgery. Various studies showed conflicting results about the superiority of laparoscopic approach over open for treatment of acute appendicitis. Present study is conducted to determine any possible benefits of the laparoscopic approach over open surgery.Methods: The study was conducted in Dr. V. M. Government Medical College and hospital located in Solapur (Maharashtra) from September 2017 to September 2019. It is a prospective comparative study. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups alternately where group A and B were operated by conventional and laparoscopic techniques respectively and their outcomes were compared.Results: Mean age of patients in open and laparoscopic appendicectomy group was 29.67 years and 31 years respectively. Post-operative pain, wound infection and hospital stay was significantly more in open group as compared to laparoscopic group (p<0.05).Conclusions: From the results of our study we conclude that laparoscopic appendicectomy has superior results as compared to open appendicectomy.

Introduction: For many surgeries for duodenal ulcer Laparoscopic repair has become gold standard for many elective procedures such as ant reflux procedures, laparoscopic cholecystectomy and in colorectal surgery. Although in the emergency setting such as in the management of perforated duodenal ulcer Laparoscopic repair has been slow and limited. Since 1990, for the treatment of perforated peptic ulcer Laparoscopic repair has been used which has been widely accepted as an effective method. Duodenal ulcer is defined as a peptic ulcer which develops in the first part of the small intestine called duodenum and usually present as a perforation of acute abdomen. In perforated duodenal symptoms as severe and sudden onset abdominal pain that is worse in right upper quadrant and epigastrium and usually followed by nausea and vomiting. In this situation there is rapid generalization of pain and in examination shows peritonitis with lack of bowel sounds. Aim: The main objective of this study is to evaluate outcome of laparoscopic surgery in comparison with conventional surgery. Material and methods: All the patients with clinically diagnosed with perforated duodenal ulcers presenting within 24 hours of symptoms and undergoing surgery were included during the study period. Total 50 patients were included with age group 15-65 years. All the patients with perforated duodenal ulcers were included which go through either conventional open or laparoscopic without omental patch repair. Result: Total 50 patients were included in these studies which were divided into two group with 25 patients in each group as laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group and conventional open repair group. Mean duration of operation (in minutes) was 105.4±10.4 in laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group whereas mean duration of operation (in minutes) was 67.3±8.6 in conventional open repair group. Mean duration of number of doses of analgesics required in laparoscopic group and conventional open group as 9.5±1.7 and 17.2± 3.1 respectively. Out of 25 patients in each group of laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group and the conventional open repair group the outcome were noted with their post operative complication as shown in table no 5 below.   In Post-operative complications 21(84%) patients in laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group and 14(56%) patients in conventional open repair group had no complications. 4 (16%) patients in the laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group and 2(8%) patients in conventional open repair group showed Post-operative complications as chest infection. In the conventional open repair group  patients present with wound dehiscence and wound infection and Wound dehiscence and chest infection were 4(16%) and 5(20%) respectively whereas nil in Laparoscopic duodenal perforation repair group. Conclusion: Duodenal ulcer perforation is a life-threatening emergency which required urgent management for the patients. Due to the advance in duodenal ulcer perforation closure by laparoscopy it becomes popular and favorite choice. With certain criteria, laparoscopic closure of perforated duodenal ulcer is safe and effective though it was associated with longer operating time and had no impact on the outcome. Hence laparoscopic closure was better in comparison to open repair for the earlier returns to normal daily activities.

Background Single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) was increasingly used on several surgical diseases. The aim of this study is evaluation of the results of the suture of the perforation by SPLS for the perforated duodenal ulcer treatement. Methods From January 2012 to July 2014, 35 patients with perforated duodenal ulcers underwent simple suture of the perforations by SPLS at Hue University Hospital and Hue Central Hospital. Results The mean age was 45.9 ± 14.4 years. The sex ratio (male/female) was 16.5 and the mean of BMI was 19.2 ± 2.3. There was one patient (2.9%) with previous history of laparoscopic repair of perforated duodenal ulcer. The duration of the symptoms was 9.9 ± 12.3 hours. 97.1% of patients had the perforations of the anterior wall of the duodenum. The mean size of the perforation was 4.7 ± 3.4 mm (2 – 22mm). 2.9% of patients had the perforations of the posterior wall of the duodenum. The rate of the conversion to the open surgery was 2.9%. The mean operative time was 75.8 ± 33.7min, and the mean hospital stay was 5.8 ± 1.4 days. The mean of the analgesic requirement time was 2.9 ± 0.8 days. The wound length was 1.9 ± 0.1 cm. There was 5.9% of the patients had wound infection. There was no operation-related mortality. Conclusions Simple suture of the perforation by single-port laparoscopic surgery is a feasible and safe procedure, and it may be a scarless surgical technique for perforated duodenal ulcers treatement. Key words: single-port laparoscopic surgery, perforated duodenal ulcer

Abstract Trocar-site hernia is an uncommon complication of laparoscopic surgery and can be classified as early-onset, late-onset or special type. Special type hernias usually occur in the early postoperative period and result in evisceration of intra-abdominal contents through all layers of the abdominal wall without an overlying hernia sac. We present a case of special type herniation of the appendix through a 5-mm trocar site in the right iliac fossa following laparoscopic repair of a perforated duodenal ulcer. In this case, herniation occurred after removal of a drain inserted through the trocar site intraoperatively and was treated with emergent open appendicectomy. A number of patient and technical factors may be associated with an increased risk of trocar-site herniation including increasing age, elevated body mass index, increasing trocar size, longer procedure duration and absence of fascial closure. These factors must be borne in mind when planning trocar placement and number to reduce the risk of herniation.

Background: Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy is being performed in increasing numbers since 1995. Now laparoscopic donor nephrectomy has been accepted as good alternate to open procedure as seen in various other abdominal surgeries. This was the basis of the present study. So, the present study was designed to analyse and compare the outcome of Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy and Open donor nephrectomies.Methods: The prospective and observational study was conducted at Stanley Medical College in Department of Urology in 61 Patients aged between 25-50 years who underwent left donor nephrectomy The Mean operating time, warm ischemic time, blood loss, analgesic requirement and duration of hospital stay were recorded and analysed statistically.Results: Out of 61 donor nephrectomies, 16 kidneys harvested by laparoscopic method with only 2 (12%) conversion to open due bleeding. Mean operating time was 179.9±47.6 minutes. Present study showed mean blood loss of (163±93 ml). Analgesic requirement of the LDN (mean 1.25 days) was significantly lower when compared to open group (mean 3.75 days). The present study shows duration of hospital stay was lower in LDN (mean 5.1days).Conclusions: Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy is an effective, safe and rewarding though it is time consuming and technically challenging. The analgesic requirement, duration of hospital stay and the blood loss were less with the laparoscopic surgery. Results of graft functioning of kidneys in both procedures were equivalent. So laparoscopic donor nephrectomy can be made as the procedure of choice in future.

Background: Skin closure in the abdominal surgeries is an important factor that affects the prognosis of wound in terms of hospital stay as well as overall outcome of the surgery.Objectives: Cesarean section being the commonly performed operation, choice of suture material has the unexceptional role on it. This study has been performed with an objective to look for the merits and demerits of the skin closure by suture (Silk 2-0) and stapler.Methods: Prospective comparative study conducted among the patients admitted in a Maternity Ward of Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital for elective and emergency cesarean section. The comparison has been made in terms of time taken during the skin closure, presence or absence of soakage and wound dehiscence, day of suture removal and pain during the suture removal.Results: The average time taken for skin closure for suture group was found to be 5.46 min (±0.97) and the same for stapler group was found to be 1.22 min (±0.15) respectively. Similarly, the mean day of stitch removal in suture and staples were found to be 6.94 (±1.75) and 7.95 (±1.89) respectively. Surgical site infection (SSI) i.e. soakage was present in eight percent of those in suture group and 20% in stapler group. Wound dehiscence was present in two percent among the suture group and five percent among the stapler group. The severity of pain is more in stapler group than that of suture group during its removal.Conclusions: Our study concluded suture being superior to staplers for skin closure during cesarean section. Though time taken for the closure is less in the stapler group, other factors like wound complications, duration of hospital stay, pain during its removal favored for the suture to be used.J-GMC-N | Volume 11 | Issue 01 | January-June 2018, Page: 1-4
