Postoperative collections after liver surgery: Risk factors and impact on long-term outcomes
ConclusionsPatients undergoing to major open liver surgery with BMI > 35 kg/m2 have an increased risk to develop a PC: this target population need a systematic imaging in the postoperative period, even if the indication for drainage should be guided by clinical symptoms. Last, the presence of PC requiring treatment has a negative impact on overall survival among patients treated for malignant disease.RésuméIntroductionL’impact des collections postopératoires après hépatectomie sur le plan clinique et oncologique est mal connu. Le but de cette étude était d’analyser les facteurs prédictifs de dév...

Cecal distension on non-tumoral left colonic obstacle: Management strategy in two cases
Publication date: Available online 19 September 2019Source: Journal of Visceral SurgeryAuthor(s): B. Noiret, A. Bentaleb, M. Oughriss, J.P. Chambon, P. ZerbibSummaryDiastatic damage of the caecum is only described in left colon neoplastic obstructions. However, diverticular sigmoid stenosis can likely cause cecal diastatic distention. In emergency, ileo-cecal resection removing the area of diastatic damage or externalizing the cecal perforation can be an interesting alternative to subtotal colectomy. The left colonic stenosis is treated later so the colon can be spared with better long-term functional outcome than after su...

One-stage laparoscopic procedure versus two-stage procedure in the management of common bile duct stones in patients aged 75 and more
ConclusionThe “surgery alone” attitude compared to 2-stage endoscopic and surgical management is associated with better efficacy in terms of clearing the CBD of lithiasis and requires fewer anesthetic procedures in elderly subjects while being comparable in terms of morbidity and mortality. In patients whose CBD is packed with multiple stones, choledocho-duodenal anastomosis is an alternative to endoscopy for management of choledocholithiasis. (Source: Journal of Visceral Surgery)

Acute intestinal ischemia complicating mesenteric venous thrombosis
We report here a new case in a 35-year-old man presenting with paroxysmal abdominal pain during 13 days. The diagnosis of superior mesenteric venous thrombosis was confirmed by CT angiography, and the patient was operated on the third day of a well-conducted medical treatment with intravenous heparinotherapy, in the presence of localized peritonitis. The laparotomy revealed an ischemic ileal portion treated by segmental resection and terminoterminal anastomosis without complication. (Source: Journal of Visceral Surgery)

Lynch Syndrome: Current management In 2019
Publication date: Available online 21 August 2019Source: Journal of Visceral SurgeryAuthor(s): B. Menahem, A. Alves, J.M. Regimbeau, C. SabbaghSummaryNearly 5% of colorectal cancers are related to constitutional genetic abnormalities. In Lynch Syndrome (LS), the abnormality is a mutation of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair system. The goal of this update is to update indications and surgical strategies for patients with LS. Different spectra of disease are associated with LS. The narrow spectrum includes cancers with a high relative risk: colorectal cancer (CRC), endometrial cancer, urinary tract cancers and small in...
