Aim To compare different types of sutures (Chlosta’s versus Van Velthoven versus V-Loc), used for VUA in LRP in terms of complication rates and continence recovery. Material and methods Patients who underwent LRP between 2014 and 2018 in a tertiary center were enrolled in the study. Data were extracted from medical records. Urinary continence was assessed at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months after LRP. Propensity score weighted regression models were used to estimate the effect of sutures on outcomes. Results A sample of 504 patients was analyzed, of which 109 patients underwent Chlosta’s suture VUA, 117 patients had Van Velthoven suture VUA, and 278 patients had V-Loc VUA. Median time of anastomosis was 13 (IQR – interquartile range: 10–16) min using Chlosta’s suture, 28 (IQR: 24–30) using Van-Velthoven suture and 12 (IQR: 11–16) min using V-Loc suture (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences between groups concerning complications and urinary continence at 12 and 18 months after surgery. The time of urinary continence recovery was on average 19 days (95% CI: 5–33) and 31 days (95% CI: 16–45) shorter during 1 year of observation when the V-Loc suture was used compared to the Van-Velthoven and Chlosta’s suture, respectively. Conclusions The study showed comparable results considering urinary continence recovery at 12 and 18 months after LRP in all VUA groups. Van Velthoven VUA was more time-consuming and continence recovery was faster in the V-Loc group.","PeriodicalId":49361,"journal":{"name":"Videosurgery and Other Miniinvasive Techniques","volume":"17 1","pages":"214 - 225"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44831726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim To compare the surgical outcomes of 3D versus two-dimensional (2D) laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign or premalignant gynecologic diseases. Material and methods In this double-blind trial, 68 patients were randomly assigned to either the 3D or 2D groups at a 1 : 1 ratio. The only difference between the two groups was the laparoscopic vision system used. The primary outcome was operative blood loss and operative time. The other surgical outcomes including failure of the intended surgery, length of hospital stay, and operative complications were also assessed. Results The baseline characteristics did not statistically significantly differ between the groups. The mean operative blood loss was not significantly different between the 3D group (74.4 ±51.6 ml) and the 2D group (79.2 ±55.4 ml) (p = 0.743). The operative time was similar in both groups (84.5 ±20.5 min vs. 87.8 ±24.4 min, p = 0.452). Moreover, no differences were observed between the groups in other surgical outcomes.

Material and methods Between April 2017 and March 2020, 32 patients with bladder tumors underwent TLTPA-LRC, pelvic lymph node dissection, and extracorporeal construction of the Studer neobladder. The basic characteristics of the patients, clinical pathology, and perioperative and follow-up data were analyzed. We also describe our step-by-step surgical technique for TLTPA-LRC. Results The median operation time was 278.5 min (range: 221–346 min), and the mean estimated blood loss was 233.4 ml (102–445 ml). The rates of intraoperative blood transfusion and postoperative transportation to the intensive care unit after surgery were 12.5% and 100%, respectively. Postoperative pathology showed 7 cases of T1, 20 cases of T2, and 5 cases of T3. Lymph node dissection and surgical margins were both negative. During a median follow-up of 13.5 months, 4 patients had early complications (< 30 days) and no patients had major complications (grade ≥ 3). The patients are now alive without local metastasis and with satisfactory urinary control ability day and night.

Serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a relatively novel technique that can block the lateral cutaneous branches of the intercostal nerves as well as the long thoracic nerve. Aim To evaluate the analgesic efficiency of deep serratus plane block (DSPB) and superficial serratus anterior plane block (SSPB) as well as paravertebral nerve block (PVB) in patients undergoing VATS. Material and methods A total of 74 patients aged 16–80 undergoing VATS were randomized to receive either DSPB or SSPB as well as PVB. Ultrasound (US) guided DSPB or SSPB as well as PVB was performed preoperatively on the patients according to their groups. All patients were provided with patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) for postoperative analgesia. The primary outcomes were the levels of postoperative pain at rest and on coughing evaluated by the visual analog scale (VAS), and intraoperative and postoperative opioid consumption. The secondary outcomes included PCIA pressing times, side effects and satisfaction with analgesia, duration of nerve block, intraoperative hemodynamic changes and vasoactive drug dosage. Results No significant differences of VAS score were found. During the operation, PVB reduced consumption of opioids (27.23 ±5.10 mg) compared to DSPB (31.20 ±3.80 mg) and SSPB (32.61 ±5.28 mg). The effective pressing times of PCIA in the SSPB group (0.18 ±0.65) were significantly lower compared to the PVB group (1.09 ±1.50) at 12 h postoperatively. Accordingly, SSPB also reduced the dosage of PCIA (26.55 ±4.72 ml) compared to PVB (31.45 ±7.60 ml). Time of the PVB procedure was longer (11.14 ±1.66 min) than DSPB (5.68 ±1.10 min) and SSPB (4.77 ±1.04 min). Conclusions DSPB and SSPB are easy to perform and can serve as a promising alternative technique to PVB that may offer comparable analgesic effectiveness for patients undergoing VATS.","PeriodicalId":49361,"journal":{"name":"Videosurgery and Other Miniinvasive Techniques","volume":"17 1","pages":"134 - 142"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2020-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41599698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim To investigate the role of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and endovascular embolization in the management of arterial bleeding in SAP patients. Material and methods Seventy-six patients with SAP admitted to our hospital between January 2010 and May 2016 underwent DSA. DSA revealed arterial bleeding in 22 of these patients, who were treated with transcatheter endovascular embolization with coils and/or gelfoam particles. Patient demographics, angiographic features of vascular abnormalities, and outcomes of embolization were assessed. Results Arterial bleeding was the most common vascular abnormality (22/76 patients; 28.9%). DSA enabled the identification of 27 bleeding arteries in 22 patients. The splenic artery was the most commonly affected vessel (11/27; 40.7%). Among the 27 arteries treated with endovascular embolization, successful hemostasis was achieved in 96.3% (26/27). Two patients developed major complications (hepatic and splenic abscess). These patients were treated with abdominal catheter drainage and anti-infection measures and ultimately recovered. The mean interval between initial onset of SAP and angiographic diagnosis of arterial bleeding was 56 days. Rebleeding was diagnosed in 5 patients (5/22; 22.7%) during repeat angiography, with bleeding from new sites in four of these patients.

However, clinical and radiological features of patients treated with TDC and BHC/SC have not been compared. Aim To demonstrate the specific features of CSDH that affect the surgeons’ preferences when selecting patients for TDC. Material and methods A retrospective analysis of 32 patients treated due to CSDH in the year 2017 at a single institution was performed. Baseline radiological characteristics, clinical status at admission, complication rate and clinical outcomes were compared between BHC/SC and TDC. Results Of the 32 patients, 5 (15.6%) were treated using TDC and 27 (84.4%) by SC or BHC. The duration of the TDC procedure was significantly shorter than the time of standard therapies (p < 0.01). There were no differences between TDC and BHC/SC in terms of baseline clinical characteristics, including age, gender, head trauma history, diabetes, hypertension, antiplatelet drug use, clinical manifestation and the Glasgow Coma Scale score (all p > 0.05). Patients treated with TDC had a significantly thicker haematoma (TDC vs. BHC/SC: mean 25.3 mm vs. 14.6 mm) (p < 0.01) and demonstrated a smaller midline shift (TDC vs. BHC/SC: mean 0.5 mm vs. 4.0 mm) (p = 0.01) compared to those treated with BHC/SC.
