Effect of preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin in advanced gastric cancer. (2/105)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Sapylin is one of the biological response modifiers. It has been used in the comprehensive treatment for advanced cancer, and its clinical efficacy has been proved. This study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin in treatment of advanced gastric cancer. METHODS: Seventy-nine patients eligible for radical gastrectomy were randomly divided into the treatment group (Sapylin + mitomycin C, 40 patients) and the control group (mitomycin C alone, 39 patients). In the treatment group, 5 KE Sapylin was injected intraperitoneally 48 h before operation and 4 mg of mitomycin C was injected into peritoneal cavity before the closure of the peritoneum. In the control group, only 4 mg mitomycin C was injected into peritoneal cavity before the closure of the peritonium. RESULTS: There was no operative mortality or duodenal stump leakage in the two groups. Postoperative complications were anastomotic leakage (2.5%, 1/40) and incision rupture (2.5%, 1/40) in the treatment group, and incision rupture (2.6%, 1/39) in the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The 3-year survival rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (76.5% vs. 49.4%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin can raise the 3-year survival rate after radical gastrectomy , without increasing the incidence rate of operative complications. Preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin is therefore a valuable therapy for advanced gastric cancer in clinic.  (+info)

Recurrent abscess after primary successful endo-sponge treatment of anastomotic leakage following rectal surgery. (5/105)

AIM: To assess long-term efficacy of initially successful endo-sponge assisted therapy. METHODS: Between 2006 and 2009, consecutive patients who had undergone primary successful endo-sponge treatment of anastomotic leakage following rectal cancer surgery were enrolled in the study. Patients were recruited from 6 surgical departments in Vienna. Clinical and oncologic outcomes were assessed through routine endoscopic and radiologic follow-up examination. RESULTS: Twenty patients (7 female, 13 male) were included. The indications for endo-sponge treatment were anastomotic leakage (n = 17) and insufficiency of a rectal stump after Hartmann's procedure (n = 3). All patients were primarily operated for rectal cancer. The overall mortality rate was 25%. The median follow-up duration was 17 mo (range 1.5-29.8 mo). Five patients (25%) developed a recurrent abscess. Median time between last day of endo-sponge therapy and occurrence of recurrent abscess was 255 d (range 21-733 d). One of these patients was treated by computed tomography-guided drainage and in 3 patients Hartmann's procedure had to be performed. Two patients (10%) developed a local tumor recurrence and subsequently died. CONCLUSION: Despite successful primary outcome, patients who receive endo-sponge therapy should be closely monitored in the first 2 years, since recurrence might occur.  (+info)

Laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal carcinoma: complications and management in 132 consecutive patients. (6/105)

AIM: To analyze the clinical manifestations and risk factors of complications in laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer patients. METHODS: A series of 132 consecutive patients who received laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer in our center were included. The etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of rectal cancer were studied among the patients with surgery-related complications using both univariate and multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS: No conversion to open surgery was observed and 5 cases converted to hand-assisted laparoscopic operation. The overall morbidity rate was 20.5%. Complications occurred during the operation in 7 patients (5.3%), within 30 postoperative days in 24 patients (18.2%), and within 3 mo in 2 patients (1.5%). The most significant complications were anastomotic leakage (9.1%) and anastomotic hemorrhage (5.3%). Size and location of tumor, pathological staging and preoperative nutrition were significant factors associated with LAR complications, while gender, age and pathological type showed no relevance. Binary logistics regression showed that the size and location of tumor, and pathological staging were independent factors of laparoscopic LAR. All the complications were treated during their onset of clinical manifestations by interventional or conservative therapy. CONCLUSION: Anastomotic leakage is a major complication in laparoscopic LAR. The complications may be associated with tumor size and site, and pathological stage. Interventional therapies are of value in the management of laparoscopic LAR complications.  (+info)

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate patients with symptomatic anastomotic leakage diagnosed after hospital discharge. Methods: Patients undergoing low anterior resection of the rectum for cancer (n=234) who were included in a prospective multicenter trial (NCT 00636948) and who developed symptomatic anastomotic leakage diagnosed after hospital discharge (late leakage, LL; n=18) were identified. These patients were assessed in regard to patient characteristics, operative details, recovery on postoperative day five, length of hospital stay, and how the leakage was diagnosed. A comparison with those who did not develop symptomatic leakage (no leakage, NL; n=189) was performed. Minimum follow up was 24 months. Results: Median age was 69 years, 61% were females, and 6% had UICC cancer stage IV in LL. On postoperative day 5, LL had a postoperative course similar to NL in regard to morning temperature, per oral intake and bowel activity. The proportion of patients being on antibiotic ...

PURPOSE: Colon anastomotic leakage remains a serious and common surgical complication. Animal models are valuable to determine the pathophysiological mechanisms and to evaluate possible methods of prevention. The aim of this study was to develop an optimal model of clinical colon anastomotic leakage in a technically insufficient anastomosis in the mouse. METHODS: A total of 110 mice were used in three pilot studies (1-3) and two experiments (A, B). Due to the high complication rates, the analgesic regimen and surgical techniques were changed throughout the pilot studies/experiments. In the final successful experiment (B), eight and four absorbable sutures were used in the control and intervention anastomoses, respectively, and buprenorphine in chocolate spread was used for pain treatment. RESULTS: In the final model (experiment B), significantly more animals in the intervention group had clinical anastomotic leakage compared with controls (40 vs. 0 %, p = 0.003). The weight loss was greater and ...

Division of Minimally Invasive Colon and Rectal Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Texas Medical School at Houston, Houston, Texas. Objective/Technique: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic (RALS) low anterior resection (LAR) with total mesorectal excision (TME) for rectal cancer has garnered increasing enthusiasm as a result of favorable preliminary results. The technique affords superior visualization, access, and manipulation of tissues in the deep, confined pelvis while maintaining the benefits of minimally invasive surgery. However, a major limitation involves low division of the rectum and mesorectum using the currently available endoscopic stapling devices.. Methods: To overcome this limitation, we perform RALS ultra-LAR with TME and hand-sewn colo-anal anastomosis for the treatment of rectal cancer. Our technique utilizes division and extraction of the rectum through a transperineal ...

Intrathoracic leakage is a serious complication after esophageal surgery. The reported incidence of esophageal anastomotic leaks after gastrectomy and esophagectomy ranges from 5% to almost 30%. Within the last 10 years endoscopic treatment has changed the approach to intrathoracic anastomotic leakages. Application of metal clips, injection of fibrin glue and placement of self expanding metal or plastic stents (SEMS/SEPS) have been reported to successfully achieve closure of postoperative anastomotic leaks in approximately 66-100%. Alternative endoscopically treatment modalities are welcome especially in cases of failure of the above mentioned endoscopic treatment modalities to prevent the necessity of surgical reintervention which is associated with high mortality or mutilating surgical outcome such as proximal diversion with cervical esophagostomy.. Vacuum-assisted closure (V.A.C.) is an established treatment modality for extensive cutaneous infected wounds. The V.A.C. system device is based ...

Wireless Sensing Platform to Monitor Post-op ComplicationsWireless Sensing Platform to Monitor Post-op Complications
Globally 14M people undergo colorectal surgery. Anastomosis is a common procedure in colorectal surgery, where two parts of the colon-rectum are joined after the surgery. Almost 20% of colorectal surgeries are vulnerable to anastomotic leakage, the symptoms of which are not felt on time. This might lead to septic shock, increasing the mortality by 32% and hospital readmission charges by 25K USD, thus imposing a global healthcare burden of 29M USD annually. There is a clinical need to monitor anastomotic integrity. Our flagship product provides on-demand monitoring of the surgical site for anastomotic integrity and alerts on time in-case of anastomotic leakage, thereby enabling early medical intervention to avoid fatality. We have an international patent pending for the technology. We have done >100 interviews across different stakeholders to validate the market and clinical needs. Surgeons and hospitals are our customers and we have a market potential of upto 6B USD. This is a scalable, platform ...

Desorption, diffusion, permeation and leaksDesorption, diffusion, permeation and leaks
If a vessel is continuously pumped out at a volume flow rate $S$, an equilibrium pressure $p_\mathrm{eq}$ will be produced if the throughput (Formula 1-16) is equal to the leakage rate $Q_L = S\cdot p_\mathrm{eq}$. A system is considered to be adequately tight if the equilibrium pressure $p_\mathrm{eq}$ is approximately 10 % of the working pressure. If, for example, a working pressure of 10-6 hPa is to be attained and the vacuum pump that is being used has a pumping speed of 100 l s-1, the leakage rate should not be more than s 10-6 Pa m3 s-1. Leakage rates $Q_L$ , 10-9 Pa m3 s-1 can usually be easily attained in clean stainless steel vessels. The ultimate pressure achievable after a given period of time $t$ primarily depends upon all of the effects described above and upon the pumping speed of the vacuum pump. The prerequisite is naturally that the ultimate pressure will be high relative to the base pressure of the vacuum pump.. ...

A total of 179 patients who underwent intrathoracic anastomosis after esophageal cancer surgery in our department From December 2012 to May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data and treatment of 7 patients with postoperative intrathoracic anastomotic leakage were analyzed and discussed. On Day 28 after operation, the 7 patients were given endoscopic injection of human fibrin sealant to seal the anastomotic leakage, and the changes in drainage volume, body temperature, CRP, white blood cell count and other indicators were compared before and after endoscopic intervention. After endoscopic injection of human fibrin sealant in all 7 patients with intrathoracic anastomotic leakage, the volume of para-anastomotic drainage, CRP, and WBC count were improved compared with those before treatment. Relevant data were analyzed, and the

Discussion. The results of this study indicate that in the Rectal Cancer Project of the Spanish Association of Surgeons anastomotic leakage does not depend on hospital surgical volume, and that rates vary between the hospitals included in a statistically significant way.. The greatest weakness of this study is connected with the voluntary nature of the inclusion of data in the Colorectal Cancer Project of the Spanish Association of Surgeons, above all when it is compared with records in Scandinavian countries,17,18 where it is obligatory to include data in the registry. Nevertheless, as has already been stated in greater detail,8,9 several measures were applied to prevent voluntary or involuntary distortion in inclusion as well as in the data. Unfortunately, due to the anonymous nature of the data and the lack of other sources to compare information in our country, it is not possible to state with certainty that there are no such data. Lastly, in the worst-case scenario the data in this study ...

Bowel movements after colon resection - Things You Didnt KnowBowel movements after colon resection - Things You Didnt Know
Bowel movements after colon resection - My wife had a right colon resection a little over a week ago and when she has a bowel movement she has no sensation off the need. Is this normal? Loose. It is common to have loose stool after a colon resection, but watery diarrhea and stool incontinence is not typical. See your doctor about this issue, and to rule out an infection in your colon.

Y1 - 1981/5. N2 - Antethoracic jejunal esophageal reconstruction is an effective alternative method of repair and should be considered when difficulty is expected with the standard approaches. The primary difficulty with this mode of repair is related to the vascular supply of the jejunum. However, with careful evaluation and management of the pedicle, ischemia of the graft may be avoided. If vascularity appears less than optimal, the proximal anastomoses should be delayed and the graft placed in the subfascial tunnel. If the cervical jejunal portion becomes necrotic, this space may be bridged later with an isoperistaltically positioned free graft utilizing microvascular techniques..

The roof was constructed with 172mm Kingspan TEK Building System panels as the increased thickness allows the panel to span further without additional support. Not only did the thicker panels help to preserve the open modern aesthetic of the show home, installing them in a large format also simplified the build and reduced the time spent working at height.. In addition to its high thermal performance and construction benefits, the Kingspan TEK Building System was also specified to help the building achieve low air leakage rates.

Serum Procalcitonin Predicts Anastomotic Leaks in Colorectal Surgery | Physicians Weekly for Medical News, Journals & ArticlesSerum Procalcitonin Predicts Anastomotic Leaks in Colorectal Surgery | Physicians Weekly for Medical News, Journals & Articles
Background: Anastomotic leaks in colorectal surgery results in a high morbidity and mortality rate. Serum procalcitonin levels is known as a sensitive and specific marker of sepsis and could be use as a marker for early detection of a leak allowing early intervention. It may help a clinician decide to perform a CT scan even earlier especially when the diagnosis of a leak is uncertain. The aim of this study is to determine whether serum procalcitonin is a good predictor of anastomotic leak in colorectal surgery. Methodology: Between July 2014 until October 2015, 70 patients undergoing colorectal surgery were prospectively analyzed in a single-center tertiary teaching hospital. Demographic and surgical data were obtained. Serum procalcitonin was taken before surgery and at day 3 (72 hours) postoperatively. During the postoperative period, the patients were observed in the ward for features of anastomotic leak and if present, it was managed accordingly. The primary outcome was to prospectively ...

Autori: Scripcariu V, Lungu M, Dragomir R, Lefter L, Radu I, Dragomir C.. Editorial: Chirurgia (Bucur). 2004 Sep-Oct;99(5):305-10, 2004.. Rezumat:. A number of factors have recently led to a more conservative approach for middle or low rectal cancers, making possible sphincter preservation and reducing the number of abdomino perineal excisions of the rectum. We have performed a retrospective analysis on 510 patients operated on in our unit between 1994 and 2003 for rectal cancer. There were a number of 118 anterior resection of rectum; in 20 cases the TME has been performed and in 6 cases a very low anterior resection of rectum was done. The overall operative morbidity rate was 16.10% in direct relation with the distal limit of resection. We note urinary dysfunctions, anastomotic leakage, recto-vaginal fistulas as immediate postoperative complications. With the practice of total mesorectal excision, the use of abdomino perineal excision of the rectum is decreasing. The use of preoperative ...

SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - Patent applicationSEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - Patent application
0129] In the sputtering apparatus used for depositing the oxide semiconductor film 403, the leakage rate of a deposition treatment chamber is set to less than or equal to 1×10-10 Pam3/s. Owing to the low leakage rate of the deposition treatment chamber, the amount of impurities entering the film to be formed by a sputtering method can be reduced. To decrease the leakage rate of the deposition treatment chamber, internal leakage as well as external leakage needs to be reduced. The external leakage refers to inflow of gas from the outside of a vacuum system through a minute hole, a sealing defect, or the like. The internal leakage is due to leakage through a partition, such as a valve, in a vacuum system or due to released gas from an internal member. An open/close portion of the deposition treatment chamber of the sputtering apparatus used for deposition of the oxide semiconductor film 403 is sealed with a metal gasket. For the metal gasket, a metal material covered with iron fluoride, aluminum ...
