In developed countries it is more often related to surgical treatment of cancer. The clinical diagnosis and through imaging techniques is fundamental to evaluate the functional status of the lymphatic system. The main objectives in managing lymphedema are to limit patient morbidity, improve functionality and quality of life. Surgical treatment is an option when conservative measures are no longer sufficient. There are procedures that seek to prevent the development of lymphedema, and techniques that include physiological (reconstructive) and resective procedures that are used when lymphedema is already established. Success depends on a good selection of patients and the completion of an individualized treatment. The following is a review article of the latest diagnostic strategies and update in surgical techniques with emphasis on microsurgical treatment.","PeriodicalId":49615,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chilena De Cirugia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4067/S0718-40262018000600589","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46973152","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}

Objective: To evaluate which is the best ileocolic anastomosis in terms of morbidity and mortality and to make a comparative evaluation of the postoperative clinical evolution according to the type of anastomosis. Patients and Method: Analytical observational study, with defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The variables to be studied are divided into two groups, those related to the surgical technique and its anastomotic configuration, and the variables related to the results of the surgical intervention, creating a contingency table that crosses the data. Data analysis with STATA 13.0. Results: 216 patients with ileocolic anastomosis, highlighting statistical significance when crossing: A) reoperation and type of suture (p = 0.044), with UN or 3.4 (95% CI 0.94 to 18.6), being of greater risk the mechanics; B) mortality and urgency (p = 0.001) with an OR 7.76 (95% CI 1.56-49.29), with emergency surgery being of greater risk. Isoperistaltic anastomosis with gas elimination (p < 0.001), intestinal transit (p = 0.009) and solid intake (p = 0.005) earlier. There is earlier expulsion of gases in the laparoscopic approach, manual suture, end-to-side and isoperistaltic of the anastomosis and elective surgery. Conclusion: There is great variability of techniques to perform the ileocolic anastomosis. Manual anastomosis is less likely to require surgical reoperation, elective surgery has a lower mortality than that of emergency surgery. We suggest performing it laparoscopically, with manual suture, lateral term, isoperistaltic and electively, for having a shorter recovery.","PeriodicalId":49615,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chilena De Cirugia","volume":"11 1","pages":"432-438"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86661408","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 purposes of this study were to describe the diagnostic characteristics, treatment and outcomes of late presentation diaphragmatic hernias and to identify a cutoff point from the onset of symptoms to necrosis development. Patients and Methods: A retrospective series of cases constituted by all patients subjected to emergency diaphragmatic hernia repair form 2006 to 2016 was studied. Categorical and continuous variables were measured and analyzed with descriptive statistics. Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves at 6 and 12 hours from the onset of symptoms were used to determine the cutoff point for organ resection. Once stablished the cutoff point, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values and prevalence were calculated. Results: Clinical presentation, diagnostic study and surgical treatment were similar to what has been already described. The cutoff point was defined at 12 hours from the onset of symptoms with 80% sensitivity and 83% sensibility. Conclusions: The diagnosis and treatment of these cases should be carried on before the first 6 hours after the onset of symptoms. Even though the universe of this study was small, we may suggest that after 12 hours form the onset of symptoms, the implicated organs would be found necrotic requiring surgical resection.","PeriodicalId":49615,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chilena De Cirugia","volume":"13 1","pages":"409-417"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73624863","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}

La identificacion de factores de riesgo y la creacion de un modelo predictivo ayudaria en la decision de crear un ostoma desfuncionalizante, hecho que actualmente recae en el criterio del cirujano. Dekker creo el Colon Leakage Score (CLS) estableciendo criterios objetivos. Objetivo: Establecer el CLS en pacientes intervenidos por cancer de colon izquierdo y recto en Clinica INDISA, estableciendo valores de corte locales, su sensibilidad y especificidad. Pacientes y Metodo: Corresponde a un estudio de pruebas diagnosticas, cuya intervencion es la aplicacion del CLS comparandolo con la presencia de filtracion anastomotica (gold standard), definida por criterios clinicos y radiologicos. Se utilizo analisis de curvas ROC, indice de Youden y regresion logistica. Resultados: De 180 pacientes, hubo FA en 12 (6.6%). La media de CLS en quienes hubo FA fue de 11.5 y en quienes no hubo FA de 6.9 (p=0.0001). El area bajo la curva para prediccion de FA con el CLS fue de 0.829 (IC 95% 0.69-0.96), con un valor de corte de 11, sensibilidad de 67% y especificidad de 89%. En el analisis de regresion logistica, el OR para la prediccion de FA utilizando el CLS fue de 1.48 (IC 95% 1.22-1.79 p<0.001). Conclusion: El CLS es una herramienta que permite predecir el riesgo de FA en pacientes intervenidos por cancer colon izquierdo y recto. Ante un valor mayor o igual a 11 se deberia crear un ostoma protector, generando un cambio en la practica clinica.","PeriodicalId":49615,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chilena De Cirugia","volume":"39 1","pages":"439-444"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80601644","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}

Therefore, its location, morphology and clinical presentation may vary in a case to case basis. Case report: A 51-year-old woman, prior history of dyslipedemia presents with upper abdominal pain. Abdominal tomographic scans showed aneurysm of the pancreaticduodenal artery and retroperitoneal hematoma. Emergent surgical evacuation of the hematoma was performed, with no other findings. In the postoperative period, the patient suffers hypertensive crisis and a new tomographic scan is conducted observing multiple dilations in different visceral arteries. The patient is treated conservatively and is being studied for a possible vasculitis. Discussion: Multi-aneurysmatic artery disease is a very rare entity, its etiology is determined by clinical and histopathological correlation. Although establishing a diagnosis in which the clinical presentation completely corresponds, is a real challenge. Unlike degenerative aneurysms due to atherosclerosis, multi-aneurysmatic disease commonly involves visceral arteries. Open surgery is considered safe treatment option and should be established in the segments causing symptoms. Endovascular treatment is less invasive, being the technique of choice in patients with high comorbidity and in cases of complicated surgery with rupture.","PeriodicalId":49615,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chilena De Cirugia","volume":"9 1","pages":"453-456"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90610311","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}
