Resumen Presentamos la imagen correspondiente a una complicación temprana de una ileostomía en asa. Se trata de una paciente de 25 años a la que se ha realizado una colectomía total con reconstrucción mediante anastomosis ileoanal en J por vía laparoscópica e ileostomía de protección, en el contexto de una neoplasia rectal a 5 centímetros del margen anal con neadyuvancia previa y una poliposis juvenil con múltiples pólipos irresecables en el colon ascendente y transverso. Se confecciona ileostomía de protección en punto previamente marcado en consulta de estomoterapia. La paciente presenta cuadro oclusivo con ileostomía no funcionante en el postoperatorio inmediato y distensión abdominal así como elevación de PCR en control analítico, por lo que se decide reintervención quirurgica mediante abordaje laparoscópico apreciándose torsión ("twister") del asa de la ileostomía, se desinserta la ileostomía y se vuelve a fijar a la piel correctamente orientada. Las ileostomías no están exentas de complicaciones con una morbilidad que puede alcanzar el 70% en algunas series1 siendo la obstrucción intestinal de un 7% 2 y se debe ser muy cuidadosos en su confección ya que al ser el último paso de la cirugía puede dar lugar fallos por pérdida de concentración. Del mismo modo el abordaje laparoscópico se muestra como eficaz y seguro en este tipo de reintervenciones.

An anastomosis stricture with a total obstruction is rare and treatment options are variable. We describe our experience with a combination of a single port transanal laparoscopic approach and intraoperative colonoscopic balloon dilatation. The patient was a 48-year-old man with rectal cancer. A laparoscopic single port lower anterior resection and diverting ileostomy were performed followed by a colon study and ileostomy takedown. The colon study and sigmoidoscopy revealed total obstruction of the rectum at the anastomosis level. We employed a transanal approach using a single port to correct this. We located the anastomosis stricture site and generated a lumen using a dissector and electocautery method to insert the balloon device. Colonoscopic balloon dilatation was subsequently successful. The patient was discharged with no postoperative complications. A laparoscopic single port transanal approach with an intraoperative colonoscopic balloon dilatation is a viable alternative approach to treating an anastomosis stricture of the rectum.

AbstractThe laparoscopic approach is considered as standard practice in patients with body-tail pancreatic neoplasms. However, only a few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and propensity score matching (PSM) studies have been performed. Thus, additional studies are needed to obtain more robust evidence. This is a single-centre propensity score-matched study including patients who underwent laparoscopic (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) with splenectomy for pancreatic neoplasms. Demographic, intra, postoperative and oncological data were collected. The primary endpoint was the length of hospital stay. The secondary endpoints included the assessment of the operative findings, postoperative outcomes, oncological outcomes (only in the subset of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-PDAC) and total costs. In total, 205 patients were analysed: 105 (51.2%) undergoing an open approach and 100 (48.8%) a laparoscopic approach. After PSM, two well-balanced groups of 75 patients were analysed and showed a shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.001), a lower blood loss (P = 0.032), a reduced rate of postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) and decreased total costs (P = 0.050) after LDP with respect to ODP. Regarding the subset of patients with PDAC, 22 patients were analysed: they showed a significant shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.050) and a reduction in postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) after LDP with respect to ODP. Oncological outcomes were similar. LDP showed lower hospital stay and postoperative morbidity rate than ODP both in the entire population and in patients affected by PDAC. Total costs were reduced only in the entire population. Oncological outcomes were comparable in PDAC patients.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Internal hernias caused by broad ligament defects are an infrequent cause of bowel obstruction. These defects may be congenital or acquired mainly by gynecological antecedents. Small bowel is the most common affected and the diagnosis is difficult due to nonspecific symptoms and absences of characteristic radiological signs. MATERIAL AND METHODS We report the cases of three women aged from 43 to 56 years old, who came to the emergency with abdominal pain, vomiting and bloating of hours duration. One patient has a history of laparoscopic appendectomy, the rest of them with no surgical history. In all of the cases, x-rays showed dilatation of small bowel loops and air-fluid levels and the abdominal TC revealed a generalized distention of bowel loops with transition point in the terminal ileum with no identifiable cause compatible with small bowel obstruction. RESULTS We decided to perform an urgent surgery with an exploratory laparotomy in one case and the rest by laparoscopic approach, finding an internal hernia occasioned by incarceration of small bowel through a broad ligament defect. In all cases, the hernia content was liberated without evidence of ischemia with no need for intestinal resection, and the defect was closed. All patients had a favourable postoperative course without complications. DISCUSSION Broad ligament defects are a rare cause of internal hernias. These are difficult to diagnose clinically as well as radiologically for an absence of characteristic signs. A high level of clinical suspicion allows early diagnosis and the treatment should be performed as soon as possible to reduce the chances of intestinal necrosis.
