Despite advances in perioperative care, major surgical complications can occur in up to 20% of cases. To determine the quality of surgical care employed, a new indicator called failure to rescue (FTR) was proposed, which assesses the percentage of patients who die after complications occur. AIMS: To assess the rate of FTR after gastrectomy and factors associated with its occurrence. METHODS: Patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy with curative intent were retrospectively evaluated. According to the occurrence of postoperative complications, patients were divided into FTR group (grade V complications) and rescued group (grade III/IV complications). RESULTS: Among the 731 patients, 114 had major complications. Of these patients, 76 (66.7%) were successfully treated for the complication (rescued group), while 38 (33.3%) died (FTR group). Patients in the FTR group were older (p=0.008; p<0.05), had lower levels of hemoglobin (p=0.021; p<0.05) and albumin (p=0.002; p<0.05), and a higher frequency of ASA III/IV (p=0.033; p<0.05). There were no differences between the groups regarding surgical and pathological characteristics. Clinical complications had a higher mortality rate (40.0% vs 30.4%), with pulmonary complications (50.2%) and infections (46.2%) being the most lethal. Patients with major complications grade III/IV had worse survival than those without complications. CONCLUSIONS: The FTR rate was 33.3%. Advanced age, worse performance, and nutritional parameters were associated with FTR.","PeriodicalId":47125,"journal":{"name":"ABCD-Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva-Brazilian Archives of Digestive Surgery","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135660361","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}

Moreover, the recurrence rate is up to 75% after three years. After the experience of the Oslo group with cadaveric liver transplant, some centers are starting their experience with liver transplant for colorectal liver metastasis. AIMS: To present our initial experience with living donor liver transplant for colorectal liver metastasis. METHODS: From 2019 to 2022, four liver transplants were performed in patients with colorectal liver metastases according to the Oslo criteria. RESULTS: Four patients underwent living donor liver transplants, male/female ratio was 3:1, mean age 52.5 (42–68 years). All patients were included in Oslo criteria for liver transplant. Two patients had already been submitted to liver resection. The decision for liver transplant occurred after discussion with a multidisciplinary team. Three patients recurred after the procedure and the patient number 3 died after chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS: Living donor liver transplant is a viable treatment option for colorectal liver metastasis in Brazil, due to a shortage of donors.","PeriodicalId":47125,"journal":{"name":"ABCD-Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva-Brazilian Archives of Digestive Surgery","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135502034","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}

Fundoplication with distal gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy is proposed as an acid suppression-duodenal diversion procedure demonstrating excellent results at long-term follow-up. There are no reports on therapeutic strategy with this combination. AIMS: To determine the early and long-term results observed in LSBE patients with or without low-grade dysplasia who underwent the acid suppression-duodenal diversion procedure combined with endoscopic therapy. METHODS: Prospective study including patients with endoscopic LSBE using the Prague classification for circumferential and maximal lengths and confirmed by histological study. Patients were submitted to argon plasma coagulation (21) or radiofrequency ablation (31). After receiving treatment, they were monitored at early and late follow-up (5–12 years) with endoscopic and histologic evaluation. RESULTS: Few complications (ulcers or strictures) were observed after the procedure. Re-treatment was required in both groups of patients. The reduction in length of metaplastic epithelium was significantly better after radiofrequency ablation compared to argon plasma coagulation (10.95 vs 21.15 mms for circumferential length; and 30.96 vs 44.41 mms for maximal length). Intestinal metaplasia disappeared in a high percentage of patients, and histological long-term results were quite similar in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic procedures combined with fundoplication plus acid suppression with duodenal diversion technique to eliminate metaplastic epithelium of distal esophagus could be considered a good alternative option for LSBE treatment.","PeriodicalId":47125,"journal":{"name":"ABCD-Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva-Brazilian Archives of Digestive Surgery","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135501331","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}

METHODS: A 77-year-old female patient, with jaundice and resectable pancreatic head adenocarcinoma, underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy associated with infracolic lymphadenectomy. RESULTS: The infracolic anterior technique has two main advantages. It is faster and prevents the formation of postoperative adhesions, which can make subsequent surgical interventions more difficult.

AIMS: To investigate the relationship between CC and clinical and nutritional outcomes in older in-patients (OiP) in a surgery ward. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study with 417 OiP in a surgery ward. Clinical variables, anthropometry, and nutritional screening instruments such as subjective global assessment (SGA), mini nutritional assessment (MNA), and nutritional risk screening (NRS) were used in the investigation. The tests Pearson’s chi-square, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, and Spearman’s coefficient, and multiple linear regression analyses were used to review the factors associated with CC. RESULTS: Lower CC values were found in the age group 80 years and over (p<0.0001), presence of complications (p=0.0269), NRS (p<0.0001), SGA (p<0.0001), and MNA (p<0.0001). Gender (p=0.0011; partial R2=0.01151), age (p=0.0002; partial R2=0.06032), body mass index (p≤0.0001; partial R2=0.40820), and arm circumference (p≤0.0001; partial R2=0.11890) are variables that together were associated with CC. There was also a relationship between SGA (p=0.0166; partial R2=0.00605) and absence of complications during hospitalization (p=0.0047; R2=0.01154) with CC. CONCLUSIONS: Gender, age, body mass index, and arm circumference were jointly associated with CC, in addition to SGA and absence of complications. The CC is a relevant indicator for OiP in the clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":47125,"journal":{"name":"ABCD-Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva-Brazilian Archives of Digestive Surgery","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135660532","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}
