Nonsurgical Therapeutic Options in Portal Vein Thrombosis
Conclusion: Therapy of acute PVT is based on anticoagulation with heparin that is switched to oral anticoagulants, if applicable. Catheter-guided invasive therapy should be considered; however, patients with liver cirrhosis should be screened for portal hypertension before anticoagulation is mandatory. Therapy of chronic PVT is discussed controversially; therefore, a strict patient selection and an individual therapeutic decision are warranted depending on the etiology of PVT. Special forms of PVT including septic and malignant thrombosis as well as PVT in patients waiting for liver transplantation require particular thera...

Clinical Management of Acute Portal/Mesenteric Vein Thrombosis
Conclusion: In patients with acute PVT/MVT, an individualized treatment based on the clinical presentation, the underlying disease, the extent of the thrombosis, and the patients' comorbidities is mandatory. Therefore, these patients should be considered for an interdisciplinary therapy in specialized centres with the option to utilise all therapeutic approaches currently available.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:6 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)

Clinical Management of Chronic Portal/Mesenteric Vein Thrombosis: The Surgeon's Point of View
Conclusion: The therapy decision should be based on liver function, morphology of the portovenous system, and imminent liver transplantation and should be made by an interdisciplinary team of gastroenterologists, interventional radiologists, and visceral surgeons.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:4 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)

Endoscopic Removal of Pedunculated Leiomyoma of the Sigmoid Colon
Conclusion: For small, pedunculated leiomyomas, endoscopic snare polypectomy is thought to be a useful approach for both treatment and diagnosis.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:1 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)

Therapy Algorithm for Portal Vein Thrombosis in Liver Cirrhosis: The Internist's Point of View
Conclusion: Based on the presently limited knowledge, a therapy algorithm is suggested favouring the TIPS as a first-line treatment for PVT in patients with symptomatic portal hypertension. Patients with thus far asymptomatic portal hypertension may first receive anticoagulation, preferably using LMWH. If these patients have a condition where anticoagulation is not promising (complete, extended, chronic PVT) or ineffective, or if they are candidates for liver transplantation, the TIPS may be implanted without delay.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:8 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)

Transanal Tube as a Means of Prevention of Anastomotic Leakage after Rectal Cancer Surgery
Conclusions: Our study showed that the use of a transanal tube in low anterior resection for rectal cancer could potentially be a simple and effective method of reducing anastomotic leakage. In order to prove our observations, larger prospective randomized studies should be performed.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:3 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)

Antibiosis of Necrotizing Pancreatitis
Conclusions: Even though most meta-analyses including the newer double-blind, placebo-controlled trials on prophylactic antibiotics showed no beneficial effects in the prevention of infection of necrosis and/or outcome of the patients, this strategy is still widely used in clinical routine. Since nearly all trials published so far show systematic problems (i.e. inaccurate definition of the severity of the disease, poor statistical testing, and neglect of differences in the route of nutrition), there is a need for randomized controlled prospective trials with exact definitions of the disease.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:318-324 ...

Perioperative Antibiotic Prophylaxis and Antimicrobial Therapy of Intra-Abdominal Infections
Conclusion: Antimicrobial resistance poses a serious threat to human health and requires a rational use of antibiotics to curb further spreading. This applies for perioperative prophylaxis as well as for the treatment of intra-abdominal infections.Viszeralmedizin 2014;30:310-316 (Source: Viszeralmedizin)
