Abstract

International audience; PURPOSE: Sleeve gastrectomy is a new bariatric surgical procedure with promising early results and low morbidity and mortality. We have evaluated the early imaging findings and value of upper GI study (UGI) and CT. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty five patients (mean age=38.9 years, mean BMI=51.5 kg/m2) following sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity underwent UGI at day 1. CT was immediately performed in patients with suspected leak or as a follow-up examinations in patients with suspected complication. The different imaging features observed were recorded. RESULTS: UGI demonstrated 13 normal examinations (52%), an abnormal appearance in 11 cases (44%) with opacification of a lateral pouch, and one complication (leak confirmed on CT). Two patients underweent CT (day 3 and day 15) for suspected complication, with demonstration of leak in both cases. CONCLUSION: An abnormal appearance after sleeve gastrectomy is frequently observed on UGI. Routine UGI at day 1 is useful to detect large leaks. CT with oral contrast should be performed in all patients with imaging or clinical suspicion of leak.

Abstract

The authors report a case of a complete pancreatic neck rupture treated by conservative surgery. A pancreatic neck rupture was diagnosed on a CT scan performed 24 hours after an abdominal blunt trauma. The patient was treated by suture of the cephalic remnant and Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy on the left remnant. Postoperative course was uneventful and the patient did not develop diabetes with a 18-month follow-up. This conservative technique, rarely used for complete pancreatic neck rupture, allows preservation of the pancreatic endocrine function.

Abstract

Background: Fibrin sealants are commonly used in liver surgery, although their effectiveness in routine clinical practice remains controversial. Individual sealant characteristics are based on hemostatic effects and adhesion properties that can be experimentally measured using the 'rat skin test' or the 'pig skin test'. This study used a more relevant and realistic experimental canine model to compare the differences in the adhesive properties of four fibrin sealants in hepatectomy: Tisseel/Tissucol, Tachosil, Quixil, and Beriplast., Materials and Methods: A partial hepatectomy was performed in beagle dogs under general anesthesia to obtain liver cross-sections. Fibrin sealants were allocated to dog livers using a Youden square design. The tensile strength measurement was performed using a traction system to measure the rupture stress point of a small wooden cylinder bonded to the liver cross-section., Results: Significantly greater adhesion properties were observed with Tisseel/Tissucol compared with Quixil or Beriplast (P = 0.002 and 0.001, respectively). Similarly, Tachosil demonstrated significantly greater adhesive properties compared with Beriplast (P = 0.009) or Quixil (P = 0.014). No significant differences were observed between Tisseel/Tissucol and Tachosil or between Beriplast and Quixil., Conclusions: The results of this comparative study demonstrate that different fibrin sealants exhibit different adhesive properties. Tisseel/Tissucol and Tachosil provided greatest adhesion to liver cross-section in our canine model of hepatectomy. These results may enable the optimal choice of fibrin sealants for this procedure in clinical practice., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
