The experience of planned treatment more than 2 000 patients with chronic duodenal ulcer makes it possible to work out the diagnostic algorithm, based on complex research of acidic stomach secretion. The principles of choosing of interference (organ-retaining, resecting or combining interference) and kind of pyloroplasty were defined. The right choice of operation of complicated duodenal ulcer secures excellent and good results for 85% patients.

Currently, surgical treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding is based primarily on topical preoperative identification of their source. In this regard, the treatment of patients with bleeding from unknown sources is a difficult task and is accompanied by a high mortality rate. In such cases, in the absence of confirmation of gastrointestinal bleeding source, treatment should base on the clinical pic- ture. A successful case of surgical treatment of patient with chronic duodenal ulcer, complicated with bleeding after retrocolic gastroenteroanastomy is described.

AbstractIntroductionHepatic artery aneurysms are rare, and their treatment represents a challenge for the surgeons.Materials and methodsA new technique is presented for common hepatic artery (CHA) aneurysm: it requires minimal vascular surgical dissection and only one linear vascular stapler is applied at the bottom of aneurysm. Aneurysm exclusion is easily obtained, which allowed retrograde thrombosis. Liver blood supply is ensured to the right and left hepatic artery, through the gastroduodenal artery, and can be previously monitored, with temporary clamping of the section area, by visual control, enzyme evaluation and intraoperative ultrasound examination. We reported an open surgical treatment, with simultaneous removal of hepatic and adrenal metastases, secondary to colon cancer.ResultsThe duration of vascular surgery was 30 min and did not involve complications. Postoperative controls confirmed the efficacy of the procedure.DiscussionThis original technique can be added to the various open and endovascular techniques so far described for the treatment of a CHA aneurysm. It is advisable as open surgery, mostly in case of associated pathologies.ConclusionsThe authors believe that this “one shot” technique by vascular staple of the distal part of CHA is minimally invasive and effective to obtain the exclusion of the aneurysm.

Clostridioides difficile is an increasingly common pathogen both within and outside the hospital and is responsible for a large clinical spectrum from asymptomatic carriage to complicated infection associated with a high mortality. While diagnostic methods have considerably progressed over the years, the optimal diagnostic algorithm is still debated and there is no single diagnostic test that can be used as a standalone test. More importantly, the heterogeneity in diagnostic practices between centers along with the lack of robust surveillance systems in all countries and an important degree of underdiagnosis due to lack of clinical suspicion in the community, hinder a more accurate evaluation of the burden of disease. Our improved understanding of the physiopathology of CDI has allowed some significant progress in the treatment of CDI, including a broader use of fidaxomicine, the use of fecal microbiota transplantation for multiples recurrences and newer approaches including antibodies, vaccines and new molecules, already developed or in the pipeline. However, the management of CDI recurrences and severe infections remain challenging and the main question remains: how to best target these often expensive treatments to the right population. In this review we discuss current diagnostic approaches, treatment and potential prevention strategies, with a special focus on recent advances in the field as well as areas of uncertainty and unmet needs and how to address them.
