1. Vermiform Appendix Incarcerated in Spigelian Aponevrosis Defect (VAISAD hernia)

Author

Irene Fiume

Abstract

Spigelian hernia (SH) is infrequent accounting less than 2% of all abdominal hernias. The presence of vermiform appendix within the hernial sac is of further peculiarity. While the authors who first described inguinal hernia containing the appendix (Amiand’s hernia) and femoral hernia containing the appendix (De Garengeot’s hernia) are well known and their name was given to the disease, SH containing the vermiform appendix has no specific name. This study provides a literature search on this topic and a review of the available case reports is conducted. A description of a clinical case of an incarcerated SH in which the vermiform appendix was located within the hernial sac is presented with attached the video of its mini-invasive surgical treatment. Based on literature findings, an attempt is made to give a specific name to this condition (Vermiform Appendix Incarcerated in Spigelian Aponevrosis Defect) using the acronym VAISAD hernia, in such a way so that it can be specifically and easily searched. Moreover, a classification of its severity and related complications, similarly to what was done for Amiand’s hernia, is carried out in order to establish the optimal approach in the surgical treatment case by case.

Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is a widespread approach in general surgery. Computer guiding software, such as the augmented reality (AR), the virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR), has been proposed to help surgeons during MIS. This study aims to report these technologies' current knowledge and diffusion during surgical training in Italy. A web-based survey was developed under the aegis of the Italian Society of Endoscopic Surgery (SICE). Two hundred and seventeen medical doctors' answers were analyzed. Participants were surgeons (138, 63.6%) and residents in surgery (79, 36.4%). The mean knowledge of the role of the VR, AR and MR in surgery was 4.9 ± 2.4 (range 1-10). Most of the participants (122, 56.2%) did not have experience with any proposed technologies. However, although the lack of experience in this field, the answers about the functioning of the technologies were correct in most cases. Most of the participants answered that VR, AR and MR should be used more frequently for the teaching and training and during the clinical activity (170, 80.3%) and that such technologies would make a significant contribution, especially in training (183, 84.3%) and didactic (156, 71.9%). Finally, the main limitations to the diffusion of these technologies were the insufficient knowledge (182, 83.9%) and costs (175, 80.6%). Based on the present study, in Italy, the knowledge and dissemination of these technologies are still limited. Further studies are required to establish the usefulness of AR, VR and MR in surgical training.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION The treatment of achalasia has undergone continuous evolution with the advancement of technology. Since the beginning of the new millennium, the employment of robotics has led to technical facilitation with the execution of the myotomy and consequently to improvement of outcomes and decrease perioperative morbidity. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We provide a detailed description of the surgical procedure and the perioperative management together with a literature search of Electronic PubMed/Medline database and Cochrane Library. English written studies on robotic assisted myotomy (case reports, reviews, single arm and comparative studies) were included. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Between 2001 and 2020, 10 case reports, 13 single arm studies, 10 comparative studies, 2 meta-analysis, 11 reviews and 2 technical notes on robotic assisted esophagomyotomy for achalasia were published. CONCLUSIONS As reported by the studies available in the literature and evaluated in this manuscript, robotic assisted cardiomyotomy seems not only feasible but also a safer operation compared with traditional laparoscopic Heller myotomy, due to a significant lower incidence of intraoperative esophageal perforation. Also if large and randomized controlled studies are advocated, robotic assisted esophagocardiomyotomy might be considered superior to laparoscopic Heller myotomy that, until now, is mostly considered the gold standard in the surgical treatment of achalasia.

Abstract

Bowel obstruction is an important cause of morbidity and mortality, accounting for nearly 30,000 deaths and more than $3 billion per year in direct medical costs. Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is caused mainly by postoperative adhesions. Adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO) is one of the leading causes of surgical emergencies and in particular of surgical emergencies that require an emergent operation. Hence, in this review article we attempted to narrate the role of the prognostic score index in the management of small bowel obstruction. Various prediction score index models developed by various authors were discussed in this review article, with the aim to delineate the role of the prognostic score index for making a decision about the surgery of patients suffering from SBO to prevent further complications like strangulation, malignancy etc. The use of prediction score index models was deliberated in this review article; widespread implementation in the treatment of patients with SBO has the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce resource consumption.

Abstract

The incidence of gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma is increasing. About 30% of the tumors cannot be completely resected, and 40% of the patients relapse after complete resection. There is much controversy over the role of neoadjuvant therapy, the approach route, lymphadenectomy, and the extent of esophageal resection. The aim of our study was to report our experience in the treatment of gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. From January 1987 until February 2005, 157 patients (125 men, 32 women), mean age 72.1 +/- 3.2 years, came for observation. One hundred sixteen patients underwent curative intervention. Mean operative time was 185 +/- 45 minutes. Mean postoperative hospital stay was 16.4 +/- 6.1 days. Postoperative complications were observed in 25 patients (21.6%); 6 patients (5.2%) died during the postoperative period. Overall survival was 36.2% and 27.6% at 3- and 5-year follow-up, respectively. Five-year survival rate was significantly lesser in R1/R2 versus R0 resections (0% versus 33.7%), N+ versus N- patients (11.3% versus 53.3%), and worsened with progression of pT histological staging (T1, 100%; T2, 24.1%; T3, 15.1%; T4, 0%). Determining prognostic factors are the radicality of resection, lymph nodal invasion, and histological staging.

Abstract

Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of defecation in patients with ileal pouch for ulcerative colitis by using the mean of scintigraphic defecography. Methods: Sixteen patients were classified into two groups according to the presence of good (group A) or poor (group B) pouch function. Emptying efficiency was calculated by scintigraphic defecography and measured as percentage of evacuation. This involves the use of up to 200 ml of an artificial stool made up of methyl cellulose paste labeled with 180 MBq of technetium-99 m (Tc-99 m) methylene diphosphonate. Potential causes of increased frequency in the absence of additional associated symptoms of dysfunction were excluded in all patients. Maximum tolerated volume (MTV) and balloon expulsion tests were also performed on all patients. Results: No patient in both groups showed evidence of organic pouch dysfunction. Percentage of emptying was higher in patients of group A (n=6) than in group B (n=10) (81 +/- 9 vs 71 +/- 9%, respectively, P < 0.05; correlation, -0.51, P < 0.04). Mean MTV was similar in the two groups (group A: 361 +/- 118 ml and group B: 338 77 ml, P=0.7). Results of the balloon expulsion test were normal in all patients except for one individual in group B. Conclusion: In patients with ileal pouch for ulcerative colitis, increased frequency of defecation without any evidence of pouch dysfunction may be correlated with an alteration of emptying efficiency. Scintigraphic defecography is appropriate to use for investigation of this condition with no disadvantages for the patients.
