1. Desmoid Tumor after Sleeve Gastrectomy: Case Report and Literature Review

Author: Renato Medas, Rosa Coelho, Renato Bessa-Melo, Pedro Pereira, and Guilherme Macedo
Subjects: desmoid tumor, mesenteric tumor, sleeve gastrectomy, bariatric surgery, tumor desmóide, tumor mesentérico, gastrectomia vertical, cirurgia bariátrica, Diseases of the digestive system. Gastroenterology, RC799-869
Abstract: Desmoid tumor is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm of unknown etiology. Despite rare, the diagnosis of desmoid tumors after bariatric surgery is increased over the last few years. We report a case of a 26-year-old male with complains of abdominal pain and postprandial fullness, diagnosed with a locally advanced large intra-abdominal mass (40 × 21 × 11.7 cm) centered in the mesentery, developed 3 years after sleeve gastrectomy. Percutaneous biopsy was suggestive of a mesenquimatous tumor and the patient underwent surgery. R0 surgical resection was achieved, despite intimal contact and common vascularization with a jejunal loop. Histopathology examination of the surgical specimen revealed fusiform to stellate cells with mild atypia, thin-walled vessels, and diffuse beta-catenin expression (negative for DOG-1, CD117, CD34, S100, desmin, and alpha-actin). The diagnosis of a desmoid tumor was made. The patient remained asymptomatic, and no recurrence occurred over a 4-year follow-up. With the increasing number of bariatric surgeries, owing to the alarming growing incidence of obesity and related conditions, it is expected that desmoid tumors reports will gradually increase over the next few years. Thus, both gastroenterologists and surgeons should be aware of the potential for desmoid tumor development shortly after surgery, to offer a prompt diagnosis and treatment.

2. Preoperative diagnostic criteria for scleroatrophic gallbladder: A systematic review protocol.

Author: Renato Bessa-Melo, Cristina Fernandes, Ana Aguiar, Santiago Lopez-Ben, Luís Guimarães, and Pedro Serralheiro
Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: BackgroundAlthough scleroatrophic gallbladder is a rare condition, it presents significant clinical challenges in diagnosis and management. More agreement is needed on this disorder's diagnostic criteria and optimal management approach. We will conduct a systematic review to summarise the scleroatrophic gallbladder's preoperative diagnostic criteria, including imaging modalities.MethodsA systematic review will be undertaken using the PRISMA guidelines. The protocol has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024503701). We will search in Medline (via PubMed), Embase, SCOPUS, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science to find original studies reporting about scleroatrophic gallbladder or synonymous. Two reviewers will independently screen the titles and abstracts following the eligibility criteria. We will include all types of studies that describe any diagnostic criteria or tools. After retrieving the full text of the selected studies, we will conduct a standardised data extraction. Finally, a narrative synthesis will be performed. The quality of the identified studies will be assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies- 2 tool.DiscussionThis systematic review will provide information on the preoperative diagnostic criteria of the scleroatrophic gallbladder and the value of imaging studies in its diagnosis. In addition, this work will aid doctors in the decision-making process for diagnosing scleroatrophic gallbladder and propose treatment approaches to this condition.Systematic review registrationThe protocol has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024503701).

3. Emergency surgeons’ perceptions and attitudes towards antibiotic prescribing and resistance: a worldwide cross-sectional survey

Author: Francesco M. Labricciosa, Massimo Sartelli, Sofia Correia, Lilian M. Abbo, Milton Severo, Luca Ansaloni, Federico Coccolini, Carlos Alves, Renato Bessa Melo, Gian Luca Baiocchi, José-Artur Paiva, Fausto Catena, and Ana Azevedo
Subjects: Cross-sectional survey, Emergency surgery, Antimicrobial stewardship, Antibiotic prescribing, Antibiotic resistance, Surgery, RD1-811, Medical emergencies. Critical care. Intensive care. First aid, RC86-88.9
Abstract: Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance (AMR) is a growing public health problem worldwide, in part related to inadequate antibiotic use. A better knowledge of physicians’ motivations, attitudes and practice about AMR and prescribing should enable the design and implementation of effective antibiotic stewardship programs (ASPs). The objective of the study was to assess attitudes and perceptions concerning AMR and use of antibiotics among surgeons who regularly perform emergency or trauma surgery. Methods A cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted contacting 4904 individuals belonging to a mailing list provided by the World Society of Emergency Surgery. Participation was voluntary and anonymous. The survey was open for 5 weeks (from May 3, 2017, to June 6, 2017), within which two reminders were sent. The self-administered questionnaire was developed by a multidisciplinary team; reliability and validity were assessed. Results The overall response rate was 12.5%. Almost all participants considered AMR an important worldwide problem, but 45.6% of them underrated the problem in their own hospitals. Surgeons provided with periodic reports on local AMR demonstrated a lower underrating in their hospital. Only 66.3% of the surgeons stated to receive periodic reports on local AMR data, and among them, 56.2% had consulted them to select an antibiotic in the previous month. Availability of systematic reports about AMR, availability of guidelines for therapy of infections, and advice from an infectious diseases specialist were considered very helpful measures to improve antibiotic prescribing by 68.0, 65.7, and 64.9%, respectively. Persuasive and restrictive ASPs were both considered helpful measures by 64.5%. Moreover, 86.3% considered locally developed guidelines more useful than national ones. Only 21.9% received formal training in antibiotic prescribing in the previous year; among them, 86.6% declared to be interested in receiving more training. Conclusions Availability of periodic reports on local AMR data was considered an important tool to guide surgeons in choosing the correct antibiotic and to increase awareness of the problem of AMR. Local guidelines for therapy of infections should be implemented in every emergency surgery setting, and developed by a multidisciplinary team directly involving surgeons, infectious diseases specialists, and microbiologists, and formally established in an ASP.

4. Challenges in uncomplicated acute appendicitis

Author: Fernando Resende, Ana Beatriz Almeida, José Costa Maia, and Renato Bessa Melo
Subjects: Appendicitis, Intra-abdominal infections, Laparoscopy, Diagnostic scores, Operative procedure, Anti-bacterial agents, Medical emergencies. Critical care. Intensive care. First aid, RC86-88.9
Abstract: Acute appendicitis is one of the most common abdominal emergencies requiring surgery. It still represents, however, a challenging diagnosis. In order to facilitate this process, several scoring systems were developed, namely, the Alvarado score, acute inflammatory response and Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha Appendicitis scores, which are the most used in clinical practice. This clinical condition encompasses a wide spectrum of clinical presentations, from the uncomplicated form to the one with diffuse peritonitis. Treatment of uncomplicated acute appendicitis remains a matter of discussion. Although appendectomy has been regarded as the gold-standard, conservative management with antibiotics is gaining more and more acceptance. The approach to appendectomy constitutes another controversial issue, namely, its performance through an open or a laparoscopic approach, which seems to be establishing itself, in some centers, as the standard of care. With this paper, we intend to give some insight on the aforementioned topics, through a review of the available literature on uncomplicated appendicitis.

Abstract: Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining traction in medicine and surgery. AI-based applications can offer tools to examine high-volume data to inform predictive analytics that supports complex decision-making processes. Time-sensitive trauma and emergency contexts are often challenging. The study aims to investigate trauma and emergency surgeons’ knowledge and perception of using AI-based tools in clinical decision-making processes. Methods An online survey grounded on literature regarding AI-enabled surgical decision-making aids was created by a multidisciplinary committee and endorsed by the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES). The survey was advertised to 917 WSES members through the society’s website and Twitter profile. Results 650 surgeons from 71 countries in five continents participated in the survey. Results depict the presence of technology enthusiasts and skeptics and surgeons' preference toward more classical decision-making aids like clinical guidelines, traditional training, and the support of their multidisciplinary colleagues. A lack of knowledge about several AI-related aspects emerges and is associated with mistrust. Discussion The trauma and emergency surgical community is divided into those who firmly believe in the potential of AI and those who do not understand or trust AI-enabled surgical decision-making aids. Academic societies and surgical training programs should promote a foundational, working knowledge of clinical AI.

Abstract: Lymphocytic esophagitis is a rare but increasingly recognized cause of chronic esophagitis. The pathogenesis, prognosis, and treatment are undefined. We report the diagnostic workup of an unusual cause of dysphagia. We present a case report of a 71-year-old female who presented with dysphagia for solid foods. The endoscopic appearance showed stenosis at the cricopharyngeus and trachealization of the proximal esophagus. Biopsies were taken to exclude eosinophilic esophagitis. The pathology showed lymphocytic infiltrate with peripapillary distribution with no granulocytes and spongiosis suggestive of lymphocytic esophagitis. Esomeprazol was started with symptomatic improvement. The symptoms and endoscopic appearance of lymphocytic esophagitis may be indistinguishable from other forms of chronic esophagitis. A high index of suspicion and mucosal sampling are essential to establish the diagnosis. Lymphocytic esophagitis seems to be a chronic and benign form of esophagitis. It should be included in the differential diagnosis of dysphagia. Further research and case reporting are essential to better define its pathogenesis, prognosis, and treatment.

Abstract: Background Surgical strategies are being adapted to face the COVID‐19 pandemic. Recommendations on the management of acute appendicitis have been based on expert opinion, but very little evidence is available. This study addressed that dearth with a snapshot of worldwide approaches to appendicitis. Methods The Association of Italian Surgeons in Europe designed an online survey to assess the current attitude of surgeons globally regarding the management of patients with acute appendicitis during the pandemic. Questions were divided into baseline information, hospital organization and screening, personal protective equipment, management and surgical approach, and patient presentation before versus during the pandemic. Results Of 744 answers, 709 (from 66 countries) were complete and were included in the analysis. Most hospitals were treating both patients with and those without COVID. There was variation in screening indications and modality used, with chest X‐ray plus molecular testing (PCR) being the commonest (19·8 per cent). Conservative management of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis was used by 6·6 and 2·4 per cent respectively before, but 23·7 and 5·3 per cent, during the pandemic (both P, The COVID‐19 pandemic required reorganization of surgical services, affecting patients with common surgical diseases including acute appendicitis. No evidence is available on the topic. This study found global variation in screening policies, use of personal protective equipment and intraoperative directives. There has been increased adoption of non‐operative management and open appendicectomy. Hands off

Abstract: Intra-abdominal infections (IAI) are an important cause of morbidity and are frequently associated with poor prognosis, particularly in high-risk patients. The cornerstones in the management of complicated IAIs are timely effective source control with appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Empiric antimicrobial therapy is important in the management of intra-abdominal infections and must be broad enough to cover all likely organisms because inappropriate initial antimicrobial therapy is associated with poor patient outcomes and the development of bacterial resistance. The overuse of antimicrobials is widely accepted as a major driver of some emerging infections (such as C. difficile), the selection of resistant pathogens in individual patients, and for the continued development of antimicrobial resistance globally. The growing emergence of multi-drug resistant organisms and the limited development of new agents available to counteract them have caused an impending crisis with alarming implications, especially with regards to Gram-negative bacteria. An international task force from 79 different countries has joined this project by sharing a document on the rational use of antimicrobials for patients with IAIs. The project has been termed AGORA (Antimicrobials: A Global Alliance for Optimizing their Rational Use in Intra-Abdominal Infections). The authors hope that AGORA, involving many of the world's leading experts, can actively raise awareness in health workers and can improve prescribing behavior in treating IAIs.

Abstract: Paragangliomas are rare tumors of the autonomic nervous system, which may origin from virtually any part of the body containing embryonic neural crest tissue. A 60 year-old old female, with a history of resistant hypertension and constitutional symptoms, was hospitalized for acute renal failure. In the investigation, a CT scan revealed a 63x54mm hepatic nodule in the caudate lobe. Intraoperatively, the tumor was closely attached to segment 1, but not depending directly on the hepatic parenchyma or any other adjacent structure, and it was resected. Histology reported a paraganglioma. Postoperative period was uneventful. A potentially functional PG was mistaken for an incidentaloma, due to its location, interrelated illnesses and unspecific symptoms. PG may mimic primary liver tumors and therefore should be a differential diagnosis for tumors in this location.

Abstract: Liver abscesses are very rare complications of ulcerative colitis, with only nine cases described in the literature, to our knowledge. We report a case where a recurrence of liver abscess occurred in an ulcerative colitis patient, in two different hepatic lobes, which has not been previously described. The recurrence was in the caudate lobe having the cultures yielded Staphylococcus aureus . This is also the first case report of liver abscess in this location and caused by this microorganism in an ulcerative colitis patient. A review of the literature concerning liver abscesses involving ulcerative colitis patients is also provided.

Abstract: Introduction The core concepts of damage control and open abdomen in trauma surgery have been expanding for emergent general surgery. Temporary closures allow ease of access to the abdominal cavity for source control.The aim of the current study was to assess the outcomes of patients who underwent open abdomen management for acute abdominal conditions and evaluate risk factors for worse outcomes and inability of fascial closure during the initial hospitalization. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of 101 patients submitted to laparostomy in a single institution from January 2009 to March 2017. The evaluated outcomes were mortality, local morbidity, and rate of primary fascial closure. Results The most common indications for open abdomen were bowel perforation, bowel ischemia, and necrotizing pancreatitis. Global in-hospital mortality rate was 62.4%. For the 37 patients discharged from the hospital, a definitive abdominal closure was attained in 28.Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that people older than 60 years of age and with Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE II) scores over 18.5 had higher in-hospital mortality rates. Definitive fascial closure was statistically associated with a lower number of re-interventions and ICU stay. Conclusions Open abdomen management may be appropriate in these critically ill patients; however, it continues to be associated with significantly high mortality, especially in elder patients and with higher APACHE II scores. Recognition of risk factors for fascia closure failure should promote the investigation for a tailored surgical approach in these patients.

Abstract: Intra-abdominal infections (IAI) are an important cause of morbidity and are frequently associated with poor prognosis, particularly in high-risk patients. The cornerstones in the management of complicated IAIs are timely effective source control with appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Empiric antimicrobial therapy is important in the management of intra-abdominal infections and must be broad enough to cover all likely organisms because inappropriate initial antimicrobial therapy is associated with poor patient outcomes and the development of bacterial resistance. The overuse of antimicrobials is widely accepted as a major driver of some emerging infections (such as C. difficile), the selection of resistant pathogens in individual patients, and for the continued development of antimicrobial resistance globally. The growing emergence of multi-drug resistant organisms and the limited development of new agents available to counteract them have caused an impending crisis with alarming implications, especially with regards to Gram-negative bacteria. An international task force from 79 different countries has joined this project by sharing a document on the rational use of antimicrobials for patients with IAIs. The project has been termed AGORA (Antimicrobials: A Global Alliance for Optimizing their Rational Use in Intra-Abdominal Infections). The authors hope that AGORA, involving many of the world's leading experts, can actively raise awareness in health workers and can improve prescribing behavior in treating IAIs., 0, SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: IntroductionCholangiocarcinoma is a rare tumor but recent data report a worldwide increase in incidence and mortality. There are several risk factors associated with cholangiocarcinoma, and chronic inflammation of billiary tree seems to be implied in the cholangiocarcinogenesis, but little is known about this process.Presentation of caseWe present a 56-year-old female with a bile duct adenoma incidentally discovered in the follow up of breast cancer that 18 months later progress to intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.DiscussionThis is a rare presentation of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that suggests the classic adenoma-carcinoma sequence in cholangiocarcinogenesis. Furthermore this case gives rise to some questions about the possible common ground on intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and breast cancer.ConclusionCholangiocarcinogenesis is a complex multi-step mechanism and further investigations are needed to fully understand this process.

Abstract: The CIAO Study (“Complicated Intra-Abdominal infection Observational” Study) is a multicenter investigation performed in 68 medical institutions throughout Europe over the course of a 6-month observational period (January-June 2012). Patients with either community-acquired or healthcare-associated complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) were included in the study. 2,152 patients with a mean age of 53.8 years (range: 4–98 years) were enrolled in the study. 46.3% of the patients were women and 53.7% were men. Intraperitoneal specimens were collected from 62.2% of the enrolled patients, and from these samples, a variety of microorganisms were collectively identified. The overall mortality rate was 7.5% (163/2.152). According to multivariate analysis of the compiled data, several criteria were found to be independent variables predictive of patient mortality, including patient age, the presence of an intestinal non-appendicular source of infection (colonic non-diverticular perforation, complicated diverticulitis, small bowel perforation), a delayed initial intervention (a delay exceeding 24 hours), sepsis and septic shock in the immediate post-operative period, and ICU admission. Given the sweeping geographical distribution of the participating medical centers, the CIAO Study gives an accurate description of the epidemiological, clinical, microbiological, and treatment profiles of complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) throughout Europe.

Abstract: Inflammatory pseudotumours (IPTs) may occur in almost every organ of the human body, the liver being the second most frequent organ which is affected. Inflammatory pseudotumours of the liver are rare benign lesions of unknown aetiology, which usually present as solitary liver masses of variable sizes. The differential diagnoses of malignant liver tumours are challenging and they usually require biopsies and histologic examinations. We are presenting the case of a patient with multiple hepatic lesions which mimicked liver metastases. Two percutaneous biopsies were inconclusive. The definitive diagnosis of multiple hepatic inflammatory pseudotumours was made after a laparoscopic exploration with an excisional biopsy of liver lesions and their pathologic evaluation. All lesions disappeared after several months, without any further treatments.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 110654.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) ABSTRACT: The CIAO Study is a multicenter observational study currently underway in 66 European medical institutions over the course of a six-month study period (January-June 2012).This preliminary report overviews the findings of the first half of the study, which includes all data from the first three months of the six-month study period.Patients with either community-acquired or healthcare-associated complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) were included in the study.912 patients with a mean age of 54.4 years (range 4-98) were enrolled in the study during the first three-month period. 47.7% of the patients were women and 52.3% were men. Among these patients, 83.3% were affected by community-acquired IAIs while the remaining 16.7% presented with healthcare-associated infections. Intraperitoneal specimens were collected from 64.2% of the enrolled patients, and from these samples, 825 microorganisms were collectively identified.The overall mortality rate was 6.4% (58/912). According to univariate statistical analysis of the data, critical clinical condition of the patient upon hospital admission (defined by severe sepsis and septic shock) as well as healthcare-associated infections, non-appendicular origin, generalized peritonitis, and serious comorbidities such as malignancy and severe cardiovascular disease were all significant risk factors for patient mortality.White Blood Cell counts (WBCs) greater than 12,000 or less than 4,000 and core body temperatures exceeding 38 degrees C or less than 36 degrees C by the third post-operative day were statistically significant indicators of patient mortality.

Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) imaging is the most appropriate diagnostic tool to confirm suspected left colonic diverticulitis. However, the utility of CT imaging goes beyond accurate diagnosis of diverticulitis; the grade of severity on CT imaging may drive treatment planning of patients presenting with acute diverticulitis. The appropriate management of left colon acute diverticulitis remains still debated because of the vast spectrum of clinical presentations and different approaches to treatment proposed. The authors present a new simple classification system based on both CT scan results driving decisions making management of acute diverticulitis that may be universally accepted for day to day practice.

26. Multiple Hepatic Inflammatory Pseudotumours Diagnosed after Laparoscopic Excisional Biopsy

Author: Andre Costa–Pinho, Renato Bessa Melo, Luis Graca, Jose Manuel Lopes, and J. Costa–Maia
Subjects: inflammatory pseudotumour, liver, biopsy, Medicine
Abstract: Inflammatory pseudotumours (IPTs) may occur in almost every organ of the human body, the liver being the second most frequent organ which is affected. Inflammatory pseudotumours of the liver are rare benign lesions of unknown aetiology, which usually present as solitary liver masses of variable sizes. The differential diagnoses of malignant liver tumours are challenging and they usually require biopsies and histologic examinations. We are presenting the case of a patient with multiple hepatic lesions which mimicked liver metastases. Two percutaneous biopsies were inconclusive. The definitive diagnosis of multiple hepatic inflammatory pseudotumours was made after a laparoscopic exploration with an excisional biopsy of liver lesions and their pathologic evaluation. All lesions disappeared after several months, without any further treatments.
