Today this methodology is difficult to apply, since there are multiple factors that hinder its use. The limited time of training systems, scarcity of resources, patient safety or the need to learn new techniques of minimally invasive surgery, make the training of surgeons require a different learning methodology. This study has designed a new methodology for the learning of surgical techniques that minimizes the impact of all the previous factors on the training of surgeons. Its effectiveness in the teaching of laparoscopic manual intestinal anastomosis is analyzed. It has been asked a group of 24 expert surgeons teaching in intestinal anastomoses, which are the steps that must include the teaching of the technique. The phases evaluated with the highest score were included in the methodology. Once the steps of the methodology were designed, 25 general surgeons were chosen and divided into three groups according to their level of experience (experts, trained and beginners). Each participant performed five training sessions following the new methodology. The technical quality of the anastomosis, the overall development of the operation, as well as the feedback developed between the participants and the instructor was analyzed. After analyzing the results it was observed that structured feedback between the instructor and the participant increases the involvement of the participant in the learning process and reduces the time needed to acquire the competence. With this methodology the inexperienced participants perform the fifth anastomosis with quality parameters close to those obtained by the expert participants. In addition, this methodology allows to individualize the learning according to the needs of each participant.展开更多

The aim was to describe the indications and prognostic factors for intestinal resections at the surgical department of Kankan Regional Hospital. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study covering the files of patients who had undergone intestinal resections in the surgery department of the Kankan regional hospital over a period of 4 years from 1st January 2019 to December 31, 2022. Results: We collected 164 cases of intestinal resection representing 4.19% of all surgical procedures. (N = 3909). The average age of our patients was 37.78 years with extremes of 1 and 90 years. The male gender was predominant (64.6%) and the sex ratio was 1.8. The majority of patients consulted after 72 hours. Acute intestinal obstruction was the pathology motivating the most intestinal resection 42.90% followed by acute peritonitis 33%, digestive fistula 4.3%, tumors 3.6% and wounds 2.4%. Intestinal necrosis with 91 cases (56.5%) constituted the first indication for resection in our study followed by intestinal perforations 41 cases (24.9%). We performed an anastomotic resection of the small intestine in 70 cases (42.9%), an ileostomy in 4 cases (2.4%), a right hemi colectomy in 26 cases (15.9%), a left hemi colectomy in 2 cases (1.2%), segmental colectomy plus immediate anastomosis in 57 cases (34.2%) and 5 cases of colostomy. We recorded 48 deaths (29.3%). Conclusion: Intestinal resection is a common procedure in our context. These indications are multiple. An improvement in the prognosis should be achieved by reducing the diagnostic and treatment time associated with the training of surgical staff.展开更多

Since then, more investigators have welded a larger variety of tissues[3-13] and have expanded its application to welding trials of entertomies of rabbit and rat small intestine[14-17] Sauer et al[18] reported results from Nd: YAG laser in reconstruction of end-to-end welding in rabbit small intestine. Recently, controlled temperature during YAG and argon laser-assisted welding of entertomies of rabbit and rat was implemented to eliminate exponential increases in the rate of denaturation associated with rapidly increasing temperature[19,20]. Yet there was no report of sutureless end-to-end bowel anastomosis using low-power CO2 laser. This is a report of a circumferential end-to-end laser welding bowel anastomosis in rabbit by using 3 different CO2 laser powers to explore the feasibility of CO2 laser welding of a circumferential intestinal tissue and to determine the optimal laser-welding parameter. Then the appropriate CO2 laser power was chosen to weld bowels in rabbit and its long-term healing effect was evaluated.展开更多

This is a specific complication of functional end-to-end anastomosis. Saccular extended obstruction of the anastomotic site of func-tional end-to-end anastomosis causes postoperative intestinal obstruction. Saccular extended obstruction places a heavy burden on patients because surgery is necessary for treatment of intestinal obstruction due to saccular extended obstruction. However, saccular extended obstruction is not a commonly recognized complication. The greatest factor contributing to the development of saccular extended obstruction is an acute angle between the portions of the intestinal tract oral and aboral to the anastomotic site. When this angle approaches obtuse angle, preferably close to a straight line, stagnation of the intestinal contents does not occur at the anastomotic site of functional end-to-end anastomosis and saccular extended obstruction is avoided. For making the angle of anastomotic intestinal tracts obtuse or straight, it may be effective that the entry hole of stapling suture instrument creating the anastomotic stoma is closed perpendicular to the intestinal axis.展开更多

Numerous bioprosthetic materials have been utilized in surgical practice. Porcine urinary bladder matrix (ACell, Inc.) is an extracellular matrix material derived from porcine bladder used to reinforce surgically repaired soft tissue, and facilitate the body’s regenerative capacity. Objective: This study represents the first evaluation of urinary bladder matrix in gastrointestinal staple line reinforcement. Methods: Pathogen-free pigs underwent midline laparotomy under general anesthesia. Small intestinal division was performed with an endoscopic linear stapler. Nineteen intestinal divisions were performed with urinary bladder matrix staple line reinforcement, and twenty divisions were unreinforced. Staple lines were then subjected to burst pressure analysis by intraluminal infusion of dyed Krebs solution at an infusion rate of 20 ml·min-1 under manometric monitoring. Upon visible staple line extravasation, intraluminal pressure was recorded. Results: Intestinal staple lines reinforced with urinary bladder matrix exhibited significantly higher burst pressure threshold (p < 0.05). Reinforced staple lines had an average burst pressure of 99 ± 33 mmHg, compared to 61 ± 37 mmHg for unreinforced staple lines. Conclusion: Staple line reinforcement using urinary bladder matrix acutely improves burst pressures of intestinal staple lines when compared with unreinforced staple lines. Its regenerative properties may confer a long-term advantage to staple line reinforcement. These findings, along with previous findings of constructive remodeling in the presence of urinary bladder matrix in treatment of the gastrointestinal system, suggest that UBM may serve a role in gastrointestinal staple line reinforcement.展开更多

Our study was designed to evaluate the clinical value of BAR in intestinal anastomosis. Methods A total of 167 patients performed intestinal anastomosis from January 2002 to February 2006 were randomized to BAR group (n=82) and manual suture group (n=-85) as control. They were equally allocated to the two groups regarding sex, age, site of anastomosis, emergent or elective surgery and contaminant diseases. The results of postoperative complications and recovery were recorded in each group. Results Eighty-seven intraperitoneal BAR anastomoses were completed in 82 patients. Two and one postoperative deaths were recorded in BAR and suture group, respectively, no deaths were directly related to anastomotic technique. In suture group, anastomotic leakage and early bleeding both occurred in two patients respectively, no anastomotic bleeding occurred in BAR group, one patient in BAR group developed enterocutaneous fistulae. Perioperative bleeding, operation time and length of hospitalization were similar in two groups (P 〉0.05). Time for return of bowel function was significantly shortened in BAR group than that in suture group (P 〈0.05). Conclusion The BAR appears to be a standard, easy, safe and effective alternative either in elective or emergent intraperitoneal intestinal anastomotic surgery.展开更多

文摘Traditionally surgeons learned surgical techniques by training them directly in the patient by imitating the actions of the surgeon with more experience. Today this methodology is difficult to apply, since there are multiple factors that hinder its use. The limited time of training systems, scarcity of resources, patient safety or the need to learn new techniques of minimally invasive surgery, make the training of surgeons require a different learning methodology. This study has designed a new methodology for the learning of surgical techniques that minimizes the impact of all the previous factors on the training of surgeons. Its effectiveness in the teaching of laparoscopic manual intestinal anastomosis is analyzed. It has been asked a group of 24 expert surgeons teaching in intestinal anastomoses, which are the steps that must include the teaching of the technique. The phases evaluated with the highest score were included in the methodology. Once the steps of the methodology were designed, 25 general surgeons were chosen and divided into three groups according to their level of experience (experts, trained and beginners). Each participant performed five training sessions following the new methodology. The technical quality of the anastomosis, the overall development of the operation, as well as the feedback developed between the participants and the instructor was analyzed. After analyzing the results it was observed that structured feedback between the instructor and the participant increases the involvement of the participant in the learning process and reduces the time needed to acquire the competence. With this methodology the inexperienced participants perform the fifth anastomosis with quality parameters close to those obtained by the expert participants. In addition, this methodology allows to individualize the learning according to the needs of each participant.

文摘Wang et al explored the metabolic improvement effects of jejunoileal side-to-side anastomosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),focusing on its multitarget metabolic regulatory potential through enhanced secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1.This surgical procedure alters the direction of nutrient flow,activates distal ileal L cells,and increases endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 levels,supporting glucose homeostasis,enhancing insulin sensitivity,regulating body weight,and improving cardiovascular health.This structural adjustment transforms the gastrointestinal tract into an active endocrine regulatory organ,providing a pathway for metabolic improvement in patients with T2DM and other complex metabolic disorders.Although this procedure demonstrates significant metabolic improvements within 3-6 months after surgery,integrating hormone level measurements,metabolic marker analysis,and long-term follow-up has become crucial for exploring the complex mechanisms of T2DM in the field of metabolic surgery and T2DM management.Multidisciplinary collaboration involving support from endocrinology,nutrition,and rehabilitation teams before and after surgery is becoming increasingly vital in the long-term management of patients with T2DM.This collaboration optimizes surgical outcomes and enhances metabolic management.Side-to-side anastomosis shows potential in the multitarget metabolic management of T2DM,providing an additional intervention option for patients with T2DM and metabolic disorders.

文摘The use of laser energy to weld biological tissues and produce sutureless anastomosis has its advantages over conventional silk-sutured anastomosis since it was reported in small vessels[1] and fallopian tubes[2], in the late 1970s. Since then, more investigators have welded a larger variety of tissues[3-13] and have expanded its application to welding trials of entertomies of rabbit and rat small intestine[14-17] Sauer et al[18] reported results from Nd: YAG laser in reconstruction of end-to-end welding in rabbit small intestine. Recently, controlled temperature during YAG and argon laser-assisted welding of entertomies of rabbit and rat was implemented to eliminate exponential increases in the rate of denaturation associated with rapidly increasing temperature[19,20]. Yet there was no report of sutureless end-to-end bowel anastomosis using low-power CO2 laser. This is a report of a circumferential end-to-end laser welding bowel anastomosis in rabbit by using 3 different CO2 laser powers to explore the feasibility of CO2 laser welding of a circumferential intestinal tissue and to determine the optimal laser-welding parameter. Then the appropriate CO2 laser power was chosen to weld bowels in rabbit and its long-term healing effect was evaluated.
文摘BACKGROUND Most major abdominal vascular injuries are caused by penetrating injuries.A common iliac artery occlusion caused by blunt force trauma is rare,and very few cases have been reported.Because of this low incidence,atypical symptoms,and frequent association with other severe injuries,the proper diagnosis tends to be missed or delayed.The gold standard for diagnosis is angiography,and treatment remains a challenge.CASE SUMMARY We report here the unusual case of a common iliac artery occlusion caused by blunt abdominal compressive trauma,with transection of the small intestine.At presentation,the patient(a 56-year-old man)complained of pain and numbness in the left lower extremity and severe pain in the whole abdomen.Physical examination showed total abdominal tenderness with evidence of peritoneal irritation.The left lower limb was pulseless and cold.Abdominal computed tomography examination revealed digestive tract perforation,and abdominal computed tomography angiography showed left common iliac artery occlusion.The patient was treated successfully by anastomosis of the intestine,percutaneous transluminal angioplasty,and stenting.The patient was followed for more than 11 mo after the operation and showed a good recovery.CONCLUSION Patients with abdominal trauma should be suspected of having major vascular injury.Individualized treatment strategies are needed for this condition.
文摘To optimize the efficiency of ileocolic anastomosis following right hemicolectomy,several variations of the surgical technique have been tested.These include performing the anastomosis intra-or extracorporeally or performing a stapled or hand-sewn anastomosis.Among the least studied is the configuration of the two stumps(i.e.,isoperistaltic or antiperistaltic)in the case of a side-to-side anastomosis.The purpose of the present study is to compare the isoperistaltic and antiperistaltic side-to-side anastomotic configuration after right hemicolectomy by reviewing the relevant literature.High-quality literature is scarce,with only three studies directly comparing the two alternatives,and no study has revealed any significant differences in the incidence of anastomosis-related complications such as leakage,stenosis,or bleeding.However,there may be a trend towards an earlier recovery of intestinal function following antiperistaltic anastomosis.Finally,existing data do not identify a certain anastomotic configuration(i.e.,isoperistaltic or antiperistaltic)as superior over the other.Thus,the most appropriate approach is to master both anastomotic techniques and select between the two configurations based on each individual case scenario.
文摘Saccular extended obstruction is generated when the anastomotic site of functional end-to-end anastomosis is extended saccularly and blocked by intestinal contents. This is a specific complication of functional end-to-end anastomosis. Saccular extended obstruction of the anastomotic site of func-tional end-to-end anastomosis causes postoperative intestinal obstruction. Saccular extended obstruction places a heavy burden on patients because surgery is necessary for treatment of intestinal obstruction due to saccular extended obstruction. However, saccular extended obstruction is not a commonly recognized complication. The greatest factor contributing to the development of saccular extended obstruction is an acute angle between the portions of the intestinal tract oral and aboral to the anastomotic site. When this angle approaches obtuse angle, preferably close to a straight line, stagnation of the intestinal contents does not occur at the anastomotic site of functional end-to-end anastomosis and saccular extended obstruction is avoided. For making the angle of anastomotic intestinal tracts obtuse or straight, it may be effective that the entry hole of stapling suture instrument creating the anastomotic stoma is closed perpendicular to the intestinal axis.
文摘BACKGROUND Isolated gastrointestinal venous malformations(GIVMs)are extremely rare congenital developmental abnormalities of the venous vasculature.Because of their asymptomatic nature,the diagnosis is often quite challenging.However,as symptomatic GIVMs have nonspecific clinical manifestations,misdiagnosis is very common.Here,we report a case of isolated diffuse GIVMs inducing mechanical intestinal obstruction.A literature review was also conducted to summarize clinical features,diagnostic points,treatment selections and differential diagnosis in order that doctors may have a comprehensive understanding of this disease.CASE SUMMARY A 50-year-old man presented with recurrent painless gastrointestinal bleeding for two months and failure to pass flatus and defecate with nausea and vomiting for ten days.Digital rectal examination found bright red blood and soft nodular masses 3 cm above the anal verge.Computed tomography showed that part of the descending colon and rectosigmoid colon was thickened with phleboliths in the intestinal wall.Colonoscopy exhibited bluish and reddish multinodular submucosal masses and flat submucosal serpentine vessels.Endoscopic ultrasonography showed anechoic cystic spaces within intestinal wall.The lesions were initially thought to be isolated VMs involving part of the descending colon and rectosigmoid colon.Laparoscopic subtotal proctocolectomy,pullthrough transection and coloanal anastomosis and ileostomy were performed.Histopathology revealed intact mucosa and dilated,thin-walled blood vessels in the submucosa,muscularis,and serosa involving the entire colorectum.The patient recovered with complete symptomatic relief during the 52-mo follow-up period.CONCLUSION The diagnosis of isolated GIVMs is challenging.The information presented here is significant for the diagnosis and management of symptoms.
文摘Background: Staple line reinforcement material has been demonstrated to raise the burst pressure threshold after linear intestinal stapling. Numerous bioprosthetic materials have been utilized in surgical practice. Porcine urinary bladder matrix (ACell, Inc.) is an extracellular matrix material derived from porcine bladder used to reinforce surgically repaired soft tissue, and facilitate the body’s regenerative capacity. Objective: This study represents the first evaluation of urinary bladder matrix in gastrointestinal staple line reinforcement. Methods: Pathogen-free pigs underwent midline laparotomy under general anesthesia. Small intestinal division was performed with an endoscopic linear stapler. Nineteen intestinal divisions were performed with urinary bladder matrix staple line reinforcement, and twenty divisions were unreinforced. Staple lines were then subjected to burst pressure analysis by intraluminal infusion of dyed Krebs solution at an infusion rate of 20 ml·min-1 under manometric monitoring. Upon visible staple line extravasation, intraluminal pressure was recorded. Results: Intestinal staple lines reinforced with urinary bladder matrix exhibited significantly higher burst pressure threshold (p < 0.05). Reinforced staple lines had an average burst pressure of 99 ± 33 mmHg, compared to 61 ± 37 mmHg for unreinforced staple lines. Conclusion: Staple line reinforcement using urinary bladder matrix acutely improves burst pressures of intestinal staple lines when compared with unreinforced staple lines. Its regenerative properties may confer a long-term advantage to staple line reinforcement. These findings, along with previous findings of constructive remodeling in the presence of urinary bladder matrix in treatment of the gastrointestinal system, suggest that UBM may serve a role in gastrointestinal staple line reinforcement.
文摘BACKGROUND Gallstone ileus following one anastomosis gastric bypass(OAGB)is an exceptionally rare complication.The presented case report aims to highlight the unique occurrence of this condition and its surgical management.Understanding the clinical presentation,diagnostic challenges and successful surgical inter-vention in such cases is crucial for healthcare professionals involved in bariatric surgery.CASE SUMMARY We present a case report of gallstone ileus following OAGB and discuss its diagnosis and surgical management.A 66-year-old female with a history of OAGB presented to the emergency room with symptoms of small bowel obstru-ction.Computed tomography scan revealed a gallstone impacted in the distal ileum,causing obstruction.The patient underwent a laparoscopically assisted enterolithotomy,during which the gallstone was extracted and the enterotomy was closed.The patient had an uneventful recovery and was dis-charged on postoperative day four.CONCLUSION Gallstone ileus should be considered as a possible complication after OAGB,and prompt surgical intervention is usually required for its management.This case report contributes to the limited existing literature,providing insights into the management of this uncommon complication.
文摘Background The biofragmentable anastomosis ring (BAR) is a simple alternative device to create intestinal anastomosis. Our study was designed to evaluate the clinical value of BAR in intestinal anastomosis. Methods A total of 167 patients performed intestinal anastomosis from January 2002 to February 2006 were randomized to BAR group (n=82) and manual suture group (n=-85) as control. They were equally allocated to the two groups regarding sex, age, site of anastomosis, emergent or elective surgery and contaminant diseases. The results of postoperative complications and recovery were recorded in each group. Results Eighty-seven intraperitoneal BAR anastomoses were completed in 82 patients. Two and one postoperative deaths were recorded in BAR and suture group, respectively, no deaths were directly related to anastomotic technique. In suture group, anastomotic leakage and early bleeding both occurred in two patients respectively, no anastomotic bleeding occurred in BAR group, one patient in BAR group developed enterocutaneous fistulae. Perioperative bleeding, operation time and length of hospitalization were similar in two groups (P 〉0.05). Time for return of bowel function was significantly shortened in BAR group than that in suture group (P 〈0.05). Conclusion The BAR appears to be a standard, easy, safe and effective alternative either in elective or emergent intraperitoneal intestinal anastomotic surgery.
