LAPAROSCOPY WITHIN MULTIMODAL OPTIMIZATION PROGRAMM IN PATIENTS WITH COLORECTAL CANCER

AIM to assess the efficacy of combination of laparoscopy and protocol of enhanced recovery in patients with colorectal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Between 2008-2016 466 patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups. Of them 266 of received perioperative treatment according to enhanced recovery protocol, 191 had routibne open procedure (group 2) and, 75 had laparoscopic operation (group 1). Patients underwent the following procedures: right hemicolectomy (n=53), left hemicolectomy (n=32), sigmoidectomy (n=55), abdomeno-perineal excision (n=67) and low anterior resection of rectum(n=201), other operation - 58. The following variables were analized: operating time, intraoperative blood loss, time of first flatus and defecation, morbidity (wound infections, anastomotic leakage, peritonitis, postoperative ileus, urinary disorders, thrombosis, cardiopulmonary complications). RESULTS. Groups were comparable in gender, comorbidities, body mass index, types of operations. Operating time did not differ significantly between 3 groups. Intraoperative blood loss was higher in conventional group. The time offirstflatus and defecation were better in group 1 and 2. Mortality rate was similar. Morbidity was lower in group 1 and 2 compared with conventional group: wound infections 1,3%, 3,1% vs 9%, anastomotic leakage 4%, 5,5% vs 9%, ileus 1,2 vs 5,4%, peritonitis 2,6%, 1,5% and 3,5%, bowel obstruction caused by the adhesions 0%, 6,8% vs 5,5%. Reoperation rate was 4%, 4,7% vs 5,5%, consequemntly. CONCLUSION. Combination of laparoscopic surgery withenhanced recovery program provides better results of treatment.

Fast track protocol is widely used in major colorectal surgery. It decreases operative stress, shortens hospital stay and reduces complications rate. However feasibility and safety of this approach is still controversial in patients older than 70 years. The AIM of the study was to estimate the safety and effectiveness of fast track protocol in elderly patients with colorectal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Prospective randomized study included 138 elective colorectal resectionfor cancer during period from 1.01.10 till 1.06.15. The main criteria for the patients selection were age over 70 years and diagnosis of colorectal cancer. 82 of these patients received perioperative treatment according to fast track protocol, other 56 had conventional perioperative care. Patients underwent following procedures: right hemicolectomy (n=7), left hemicolectomy (n=12), transverse colectomy (n=1), sigmoidectomy (n=23), abdomeno-perineal excision (n=19) and low anterior resection of rectum (n=76). Following data were analized: duration of operation, intraoperative blood loss, time offirst flatus and defecation, complications rates. RESULTS. Mean age was 77,4 ± 8 years. There were no differences in gender, co morbidities, body mass index, types of operations between groups. Duration of operations didn't differ significantly between 2 groups. Intraoperative blood loss was higher in conventional group. The time of first flatus and defecation were better in FT-group. There was no mortality in FT-group vs 1,8 %o mortality in conventional group. Complications rate was lower in FT-group: wound infections 3,6% vs 9 %, anastomotic leakage 4,8 %o vs 9 %o, ileus 1,2 vs 5,4 %o, peritonitis 2,4 %o vs 3,6%o, bowel obstruction caused by the adhesions 6 % vs 5,3 %. Reoperation rate was similar 4,8 % vs 3,6 %. CONCLUSION. Fast track protocol in major elective colorectal surgery can be safely applied in elderly patients. The application of fast track protocol in elderly patients improves the restoration of bowel function and reduces the risk of postoperative complication.

Abstract Background This present study is aimed to retrospectively assess the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) printing assisted osteotomy guide plate in accurate osteotomy of adolescent cubitus varus deformity. Material and methods Twenty-five patients (15 males and 10 females) with the cubitus varus deformity from June 2014 to December 2017 were included in this study and were enrolled into the conventional group (n = 11) and 3D printing group (n = 14) according to the different surgical approaches. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, osteotomy degrees, osteotomy end union time, and postoperative complications between the two groups were observed and recorded. Results Compared with the conventional group, the 3D printing group has the advantages of shorter operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, higher rate of excellent correction, and higher rate of the parents’ excellent satisfaction with appearance after deformity correction (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P = 0.019, P = 0.023). Nevertheless, no significant difference was presented in postoperative carrying angle of the deformed side and total complication rate between the two groups (P = 0.626, P = 0.371). Conclusions The operation assisted by 3D printing osteotomy guide plate to correct the adolescent cubitus varus deformity is feasible and effective, which might be an optional approach to promote the accurate osteotomy and optimize the efficacy.

AbstractTo evaluate potential factors associated with the risk of perioperative blood transfusion (PBT) with implications on length of hospital stay (LOHS) and major post-operative complications in patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) as a primary treatment for prostate cancer (PCa). In a period ranging from January 2013 to August 2019, 980 consecutive patients who underwent RARP were retrospectively evaluated. Clinical factors such as intraoperative blood loss were evaluated. The association of factors with the risk of PBT was investigated by statistical methods. Overall, PBT was necessary in 39 patients (4%) in whom four were intraoperatively. Positive surgical margins, operating time and intraoperative blood loss were associated with perioperative blood transfusion on univariate analysis. On multivariate analysis, the risk of PBT was predicted by intraoperative blood loss (odds ratio, OR 1.002; 95% CI 1.001–1.002; p < 0.0001), which was associated with prolonged operating time and elevated body mass index (BMI). PBT was associated with delayed LOHS and Clavien–Dindo complications > 2. In patients undergoing RARP as a primary treatment for PCa, the risk of PBT represented a rare event that was predicted by severe intraoperative bleeding, which was associated with increased BMI as well as with prolonged operating time. In patients who received a PBT, prolonged LOHS as well as an elevated risk of major Clavien–Dindo complications were seen.

Risk Of Hemorrhage

Abstract Introduction Tonsillectomy is one of the most common otolaryngology procedures performed worldwide. It is also one of the first procedures learnt by residents during their training period. Although tonsillectomy is viewed relatively as a low-risk procedure, it can be potentially harmful because of the chance of posttonsillectomy hemorrhage. Objective The objective of the present study is to analyze the effects of peroperative factors and experience of the surgeon on the incidence and pattern of posttonsillectomy reactionary hemorrhage. Methods A retrospective review of medical charts was performed from 2014 to 2017 in a tertiary care hospital. A total of 1,284 patients who underwent tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy were included in the study. The parameters assessed were experience of the surgeon, operating time, intraoperative blood loss, difference in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and pulse rate. Results A total of 23 (1.79%) out of the 1,284 patients had reactionary hemorrhage. Out of those 23, 16 (69.5%) patients had been operated on by trainees, while 7 (30.5%) had been operated on by consultants (p = 0.033, odds ratio [OR] = 0.04). Operating time, intraoperative blood loss, difference in MAP and pulse rate were significantly higher in the reactionary hemorrhage group, and showed a positive association with risk of hemorrhage (p < 0.05; OR >1). Re-exploration to control the bleeding was required in 10 (76.9%) out of the 23 cases. Conclusion The experience of the surgeon experience and peroperative factors have an association with posttonsillectomy hemorrhage. Close surveillance and monitoring of the aforementioned peroperative factors will help in the identification of patients at risk of hemorrhage.

Study Design: Case series. Objectives: To report the clinical outcomes of the decompression procedure using the microendoscopic discectomy system for the treatment of a separation of lumbar posterior ring apophysis in young active athletes. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 17 cases that underwent the microendoscopic surgery to treat a symptomatic separated lumbar ring apophysis between 2001 and 2014 at our institute or our associated hospital. The cases consisted of 15 males and 2 females, with their ages ranging from 12 to 19 years. The surgeries were performed at total of 18 lumbar levels, including 15 L4/5 and 3 L5/S1 levels. All patients were young athletes. We evaluated the following: (1) the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score for low back pain, (2) recovery rates using Hirabayashi’s method, (3) operating time, (4) intraoperative blood loss, (5) perioperative complications, (6) the status of comeback to sports, and (7) the period taken to return to sports. Results: The JOA score was improved after the surgery in all cases. Recovery rate was 92.0% ± 8.1%. The mean operating time per level was 89.2 ± 33.3 minutes. The mean intraoperative blood loss per level was 95.3 ± 93.1 mL. A pinhole size dural tear occurred in one case as a perioperative complication. All cases returned to sports. The mean period taken to return to sports was 10.9 ± 3.5 weeks. Conclusion: Microendoscopic decompression surgery is useful for treating a separation of lumbar posterior ring apophysis.

e16563 Background: Esophageal jejunal anastomotic fistula is still one of the serious postoperative complications of gastric cancer, the incidence was 1% ~ 16.5%. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis in total gastrectomy. Methods: The new method was called double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis: esophagojejunal anastomosis was performed with a tubular stapler, then the anastomosis was reinforced by absorbable suture (Full-layer continuous suture, slurry muscularis embedding). The new method was used in observation group (n = 295). In the control group(n = 469),the esophagojejunal anastomosis was performed with a tubular stapler, then reinforced by intermittent suture with absorbable sutures. Data analysis including operating time, blood loss, anastomosis time, types and cases of postoperative complications, and postoperative hospitalization time. Results: The data of 764 patients who performed radical gastrectomy between May 2015 and May 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. 1.Surgery situations: The operating time (140.66±26.96 min vs 139.61±22.75min, t= 0.581, P> 0.05) blood loss (200.61±111.03ml vs214.45±114.09ml, t= -1.481, P> 0.05), anastomosis time (20.44±4.31min vs19.92±4.58min, t= 1.573, P> 0.05), postoperative hospitalization time (15.35±6.46 d vs15.89±5.58d, t= -1.229, P> 0.05) .2. Postoperative situations: the rates of anastomotic complications in observation group was 1.69% (5/295) and 4.69% (22/469) in control group, with a statistically significant difference between two groups( χ2 = 4.768, P< 0.05). The rates of anastomotic leakage in observation group was lower than that in the control group 1.02% (3/295) vs 3.41% (16/469) ( χ2 = 4.282, P< 0.05) . The severity of anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, anastomotic bleeding were no statistically significant differences between two groups( χ 2= 2.030,1.261,0.075, P> 0.05). Total postoperative complications: 101 cases (34.24%) in the observation group, 14 cases (4.75%) with severe complications, and 1 case death. 151 cases (32.2%) in the control group, 34 cases (7.25%) with serious complications, and 2 cases death ( χ2 = 0.838, Z = -1.465, P > 0.05). Conclusions: Double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis is safe and feasible in total gastrectomy, which can reduce the incidence of anastomosis complications.

Objective. To evaluate the indication and the clinical value of laparoscopic adrenalectomy of different types of adrenal tumor.Methods. From 2009 to 2014, a total of 110 patients were diagnosed with adrenal benign tumor by CT scan and we performed laparoscopic adrenalectomy. The laparoscopic approach has been the procedure of choice for surgery of benign adrenal tumors, and the upper limit of tumor size was thought to be 6 cm.Results. 109 of 110 cases were successful; only one was converted to open surgery due to bleeding. The average operating time and intraoperative blood loss of pheochromocytoma were significantly more than the benign tumors (P<0.05). After 3 months of follow-up, the preoperative symptoms were relieved and there was no recurrence.Conclusions. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has the advantages of minimal invasion, less blood loss, fewer complications, quicker recovery, and shorter hospital stay. The full preparation before operation can decrease the average operating time and intraoperative blood loss of pheochromocytomas. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy should be considered as the first choice treatment for the resection of adrenal benign tumor.

Background: Controversy still exists regarding using cemented or uncemented hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of the two surgical techniques in femoral neck fracture patients over 60 years old.Methods: We searched PUBMED from inception to December 2012 for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Outcomes of interest include postoperative hip function, residue pain, complication rates, mortality, reoperation rate, operation time and intraoperative blood loss. Odds ratios (OR) and weighted mean differences (WMD) from each trial were pooled using random-effects model or fixed-effects model given on the heterogeneity of the included studies.Results: Our control trial involved 132 patients (132 hips) who were eligible for the study. Our results demonstrate that cemented hemiarthroplasty is associated with better postoperative hip function (OR = 0.48, 95% CI, 0.31–0.76; p = 0.002), lower residual pain (OR = 0.43, 95%CI, 0.29–0.64; p<0.0001), less implant-related complications (OR = 0.15, 95%CI, 0.09–0.26; p<0.00001) and longer operation time (WMD = 7.43 min, 95% CI, 5.37–9.49 min; p<0.00001). No significant difference was observed between the two groups in mortality, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications, local complications, general complications, reoperation rate and intraoperative blood loss.Conclusions: Compared with uncemented hemiarthroplasty, the existing evidence indicates that cemented hemiarthroplasty can achieve better hip function, lower residual pain and less implant-related complications with no increased risk of mortality, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications, general complications, local complications and reoperation rate in treating elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.

Abstract Background: For patients with colorectal cancer and malignant intestinal obstruction, it is still controversial to perform endoscopic intestinal stent placement followed by laparoscopic surgery. This study compares the endoscopic intestinal stent placement followed by laparoscopic surgery and emergency surgery in patients with colorectal cancer and malignant intestinal obstruction.Method: 11 compliant publications from Pubmed, Cochrane and Embase databases were analyzed using Revies Manager 5.2 software. SPSS 21 was used to retrospectively analyze 99 patients admitted to our center from 2014 to 2019.Results: There were significant differences between the two groups in three of the five criteria. In the SBTS group, the perioperative mortality rate was lower, with an OR of 0.46 (95% CI: 0.22-0.95, P=0.04), the incidence of postoperative wound infection was lower; OR was 0.44 (95% CI: 0.24-0.82, P=0.009); Postoperative hospital stay was shorter, MD was -2.07 (95% CI: -2.55--1.59, P<0.00001).Retrospective analysis of the clinical outcome differences between the SBTS group and ES group in our center: Compared to the ES group, the SBTS group displayed lower infection rate of surgical incision (χ2=3.94,P =0.04) ); no difference in the frequency of occurrence of anastomotic leakage (χ2=0.18,P=0.67), did not reduce perioperative mortality (χ2=0.94,P=0.33);shorter operating time (204.13±37.35 min) (t=5.08,P=0.000), lower intraoperative blood loss (155.65±94.90 ml) (t=3.90,P=0.001); and shorter postoperative hospital stay (12.91±5.47 d) (t=2.64, P=0.01).Conclusion: Compared the emergency surgery group, endoscopic intestinal stent placement followed by the laparoscopic surgery can reduce perioperative mortality, postoperative wound infection, intraoperative blood loss, and the length of postoperative hospital stay. There was no difference between the two methods as far as the incidence of posterior anastomotic leakage and operating time were concerned.

Introduction: Robotic-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) has been touted as an alternative to open simple prostatectomy (OSP) to treat large gland benign prostatic hyperplasia. Our study assesses our institution’s experience with RASP and reviews the literature.Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review from January 2011 to November 2013 of all patients undergoing RASP and OSP. Operative and 90-day outcomes, including operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay (LOS), transfusion requirements, and complication rates, were assessed.Results: Thirty-two patients were identified: 4 undergoing RASP and 28 undergoing OSP. There was no difference in mean age at surgery (69.3 vs. 75.2 years; p = 0.17), mean Charlson Comorbidity Index (2.5 vs. 3.5; p = 0.19), and mean prostate volume on TRUS (239 vs. 180 mL; p = 0.09) in the robotic and open groups, respectively. There was a significant difference in the mean length of operation, with RASP exceeding OSP (161 vs. 79 min; p = 0.008). The mean intraoperative blood loss was significantly higher in the open group (835.7 vs. 218.8 mL; p = 0.0001). Mean LOS was shorter in the RASP group (2.3 vs. 5.5 days; p = 0.0001). No significant differences were noted in the 90-day transfusion rate (p = 0.13), or overall complication rate at 0% with RASP vs. 57.1% with OSP (p = 0.10).Conclusions: Our data suggest RASP has a shorter LOS and lower intraoperative volume of blood loss, with the disadvantage of a longer operating time, compared to OSP. It is a feasible technique and deserves further investigation and consideration at Canadian centres performing robotic prostatectomies.
