Metastatic disease is an expression of an advanced disease, is associated with poor prognosis and can occur at the time of hepatic recurrence. We present the case of a female patient who underwent surgery for a big hepatic adenoma that suffered malignant transformation. Fifteen months later, she had HCC liver recurrence with peritoneal metastases, being submitted to a new surgery with complete resection of the hepatic mass and peritoneal implants. In the absence of HCC rupture, peritoneal dissemination is not common. Aggressive surgical treatment and adjuvant treatment with sorafenib could prolong patients’ overall survival but there is still no standard management for these patients.","PeriodicalId":309104,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Surgery","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134435633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are no current management guidelines, and definitive management depends on varying features within each individual case. We report a rare case presenting with features of acute gastric outlet obstruction on a background of chronic pancreatitis. The rapid formation of this IHPP does not appear to have been previously reported in the literature. Methods: We conducted a comprehensive literature search of both PubMed and the Cochrane library to identify cases of IHPPs in recent literature. This review article aims at comparing the clinical features and management of the reported case with those reported in world literature. Results: Diagnosis and clinical management of IHPP is challenging. A combination of CT scanning and aspirate sampling are the most useful in establishing a diagnosis. Clinical management includes a conservative approach, percutaneous/ endoscopic drainage, ERCP and pancreatic duct stenting. Open surgical management is reserved for cases where serious complications have occurred. Conclusion: This is the first documented rapid formation of an IHPP in current literature. The most common approach for the management of IHPPs is through radiologically guided percutaneous drainage. Early diagnosis and successful definitive management are probably best determined by the size of the lesion and severity of the clinical presentation.","PeriodicalId":309104,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Surgery","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134120035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to produce a meta-analysis including only prospective and randomized studies to know real effect using hemostatic sealants on the resection edge after elective hepatic resection, especially regarding biliary fistula and hematoma. A literature search of the Medline and EMBASE was carried out to find prospective and randomized trials related to the use of hemostatic sealant in the surface of the liver resection compared with not using products after the usual revision of hemostasis. Six studies were included involving a total of 1,002 patients in this meta-analysis. After analyzing the results, the risk of developing hematoma/abscess or biliary leak was not related to the use of sealants. Odds Ratio (OR): 1.19; 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.79 to 1.81; p=0.40 and OR: 1.02; 95% CI: 0.65 to 1.61; p=0.92 respectively. The use of sealants over the edge of the liver resection does not currently provide any benefit and its cost is not really justified.
