Project description:Re-operative laparoscopic colorectal surgery is becoming increasingly common. It can be a challenging procedure, but its benefits can outweigh the associated risks. A systematic review of the literature reporting re-operative laparoscopic surgery was carried out. Retrospective and prospective cohort studies and case series were included, with case reports being excluded. Seventeen articles dated from 2007 to 2020 were included in the systematic review. In total, 1555 patients were identified. Five hundred and seventy-four of them had a laparoscopic procedure and 981 an open re-operation. One hundred and eighty-three women had a laparoscopic operation. The median age ranged from to 44.9 years to 68.7 years. In seven studies, the indication of the index operation was malignancy, one study regarded re-laparoscopy for excision of lateral pelvic lymph nodes, and one study looked at redo surgery of ileal J pouch anal anastomosis. There were 16 mortalities in the laparoscopic arm (2.78%) and 93 (9.4%) in the open surgery arm. One hundred and thirty-seven morbidities were recorded in the open arm and 102 in the laparoscopic arm. Thirty-nine conversions to open occurred. The median length of stay ranged from 5.8 days to 19 days in laparoscopy and 9.7 to 34 days in the open surgery arm. Re-operative laparoscopic colorectal surgery is safe when performed by experienced hands. The management of complications, recurrence of malignancy, and lateral pelvic floor dissection can be safely performed. The complication rate is low, with conversion to open procedures being relatively uncommon.

Project description:BackgroundVision is an important and defining element of laparoscopy and significantly affects the outcome of surgery in terms of time, error, and precision. Several new imaging systems have become available for laparoscopic surgery, including three-dimensional (3D) high-definition (HD) and two-dimensional (2D) ultra-high-resolution (4K) monitors. 3D HD systems offer a number of potential benefits to surgeons and patients over traditional 2D systems, including reduced operating time, blood loss, and hospital stay. However, the performance of 3D systems against the new, ultra-high definition 4K systems is barely known and highly controversial. There is a paucity of studies comparing them in clinical settings. The aim of this study is to compare 2D 4K and 3D HD perspectives in gastric bypass surgery.MethodsForty-eight patients with an indication for gastric bypass will be randomized to receive laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery using either 2D 4K or 3D HD systems. The operations will be performed by a well-coordinated team of three senior surgeons. The primary outcome is operative time. Secondary outcomes include intraoperative complications, blood loss, operator workload as assessed by the validated Surg-TLX questionnaire, and postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. An interim analysis is planned after enrollment of 12 participants for each group.DiscussionThis prospective, randomized trial is designed to test the hypothesis that the use of a 3D HD system will result in a significant improvement in operative time compared to a 2D 4K system in bariatric surgery. The objective is to provide clinical evidence for new laparoscopic imaging systems and to evaluate potential benefits.Trial registrationThis trial is registered at clinicaltrials.gov under the identifier NCT05895058.

Project description:Background:The transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) is the most recently introduced method of minimally invasive thyroid surgery. To our knowledge, no studies have compared TOETVA outcomes using different laparoscopic systems. This study compared outcomes of TOETVA using conventional high definition (HD) and ultra-high definition (UHD) equipment. Methods:Medical data and surgery videos of 62 patients who randomized to undergo thyroid lobectomy by TOETVA using an HD or UHD system from August 2018 to April 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Endoscopic procedures were divided into four phases: flap creation to isthmectomy (phase I); strap muscle division to upper pole ligation (phase II); trimming recurrent laryngeal nerve (phase III); and ligation of Berry's ligament to complete resection (phase IV). Results:Of the 62 patients, 28 underwent TOETVA using an HD device and 34 using a UHD device. The clinical characteristics of the two groups were not different. Mean operating time for lobectomy was similar in the HD and UHD groups (44.19±9.94 versus 43.47±12.19 min, P=0.825). The times required for phases I (15.02±5.33 versus 13.67±5.44 min, P=0.397); II (12.89±2.84 versus 13.17±5.22 min, P=0.816); III (9.85±4.36 versus 9.98±4.55 min, P=0.918); and IV (6.43±3.69 versus 6.65±3.45 min, P=0.840) were also similar in the HD and UHD groups. The numbers of retrieved lymph nodes did not differ significantly in the HD and UHD groups (3.26±2.62 versus 3.45±2.81, P=0.807). Conclusions:Applying a UHD system in TOETVA resulted in outcomes similar to those observed with a conventional HD system. Operation time tended to be lower, especially for flap dissection, and numbers of harvest lymph nodes tended to be higher in the UHD group. Large-scale studies are needed to assess the advantages of the UHD system.

Project description:Postoperative ileus (POI) is an important factor prolonging the length of hospital stay following colorectal surgery. We retrospectively explored whether there is a clinically relevant association between intraoperative hypothermia and POI in patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery for malignancy within the setting of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program between April 2016 and January 2017 at our institution. In total, 637 patients were analyzed, of whom 122 (19.2%) developed clinically and radiologically diagnosed POI. Overall, 530 (83.2%) patients experienced intraoperative hypothermia. Although the mean lowest core temperature was lower in patients with POI than those without POI (35.3 ± 0.5°C vs. 35.5 ± 0.5°C, P = 0.004), the independence of intraoperative hypothermia was not confirmed based on multivariate logistic regression analysis. In addition to three variables (high age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index score, long duration of surgery, high maximum pain score during the first 3 days postoperatively), cumulative dose of rescue opioids used during the first 3 days postoperatively was identified as an independent risk factor of POI (odds ratio = 1.027 for each 1-morphine equivalent [mg] increase, 95% confidence interval = 1.014-1.040, P <0.001). Patients with hypothermia showed significant delays in both progression to a soft diet and discharge from hospital. In conclusion, intraoperative hypothermia was not independently associated with POI within an ERAS pathway, in which items other than thermal measures might offset its negative impact on POI. However, as it was associated with delayed discharge from the hospital, intraoperative maintenance of normothermia is still needed.

Project description:BackgroundThe role of the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and lung recruitment manoeuvre (LRM) combination (termed open-lung strategy, OLS) during intra-operative mechanical ventilation is not clear.ObjectiveTo determine whether an open-lung strategy constituting medium PEEP (6-8 cmH2O) and repeated LRMs protects against postoperative complications in at-risk patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection under low-tidal-volume ventilation.DesignA prospective, assessor-blinded, randomised controlled trial.SettingSingle university-affiliated hospital, conducted from January 2017 to October 2018.PatientsA total of 280 patients at risk of pulmonary complications, scheduled for laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection under general anaesthesia and low-tidal-volume (6-8 ml kg-1 predicted body weight) ventilation.InterventionThe patients were randomly assigned (1 : 1) to a PEEP of 6-8 cmH2O with LRMs repeated every 30 min (OLS group) or a zero PEEP without LRMs (non-OLS group).Main outcome measuresThe primary outcome was a composite of major pulmonary and extrapulmonary complications occurring within 7 days after surgery. The secondary outcomes included intra-operative potentially harmful hypotension and the need for vasopressors.ResultsA total of 130 patients from each group were included in the primary outcome analysis. Primary outcome events occurred in 24 patients (18.5%) in the OLS group and 43 patients (33.1%) in the non-OLS group [relative risk, 0.46; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.26 to 0.82; P = 0.009). More patients in the OLS group developed potentially harmful hypotension (OLS vs. non-OLS, 15% vs. 4.3%; P = 0.004) and needed vasopressors (25% vs. 8.6%; P < 0.001).ConclusionAmong at-risk patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection under low-tidal-volume ventilation, an open-lung strategy with a PEEP of 6-8 cmH2O and repeated LRMs reduced postoperative complications compared with a strategy using zero PEEP without LRMs. Of note, LRMs should be used with caution in patients with haemodynamic instability.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT03160144.

Project description:Fast-track surgery (FTS), a multimodal rehabilitation technique, has been recommended as surgical therapy for colorectal cancer. The objective of the present study was to compare the outcomes of FTS and conventional laparoscopic surgery. This study was a blinded randomized trial. A total of 70 patients with colorectal cancer were divided into two groups and underwent laparoscopic colorectal resection. The FTS group consisted of 31 patients and the control group consisted of 39 patients. Protocols for the treatment of the FTS group included skipping pre-operative mechanical bowel preparation, early restoration of diet and early post-operative ambulation. Outcome measures, length of hospital stay, post-operative surgical stress response [C-reactive protein (CRP)] and post-operative complications were compared between the two groups. The average length of total hospital stay for the FTS and the control groups was 5.9±0.8 and 10.9±1.3 days, respectively (P<0.05), and the length of post-operative hospital stay for the FTS and control group was 4.3±0.8 and 8.0±1.1 days, respectively. (P<0.05) First flatus time for the FTS and control groups was 1.6±0.8 and 2.5±0.9 days, respectively (P<0.05). Defecation time for the FTS and control groups was 2.2±0.7 and 4.5±0.7 days, respectively (P<0.05). The time to restoration of a solid diet also showed a significant difference between the FTS and control groups (1.1±0.3 vs. 3.6±0.9 days; P<0.05). Following surgery, due to post-operative surgical stress, the two groups CRP levels increased significantly, but the levels of the FTS group were lower than those of the conventional control group (P<0.05). There was no difference in post-operative complications between the FTS and control groups. This study confirms that FTS shortens hospital stay and accelerates the recovery of bowel function without increase of post-operative complications. FTS is safe, improves post-operative recovery and is a better option than conventional laparoscopic surgery for treating colorectal cancer patients.

Project description:BackgroundIt is well demonstrated that intraoperative blood pressure is associated with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI); however, the association between severity and duration of abnormal intraoperative blood pressure (BP) with AKI in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery remains unknown.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 12,414 patients aged ≥ 18 years who underwent a single elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery during hospitalization between October 2011 and April 2017. Multivariate stepwise logistic regressions were applied to determine the correlation between the severity and duration of intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP, (systolic BP + 2 × diastolic BP)/3), acute intraoperative hypertension (IOTH) and postoperative AKI, in different periods of surgery.ResultsA total of 482 hospitalized patients (3.9%) developed surgery-related AKI. Compared with those without IOTH or with preoperative mean MAP (80-85 mmHg), acute elevated IOTH (odds ratio, OR, 1.4, 95% CI, 1.1 to 1.7), mean MAP 95-100 mmHg (OR, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.3 to 2.7), MAP 100-105 mmHg (OR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.6 to 3.8), and more than 105 mmHg (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.1 to 3.3) were independent of other risk factors in a diverse cohort undergoing laparoscopic surgery. In addition, the risk of postoperative AKI appeared to result from long exposure (≥20 min) to IOTH (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.5 to 2.5) and MAP ≥ 115 mmHg (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.6 to 3.0). Intraoperative hypotension was not found to be associated with AKI in laparoscopic surgery patients.ConclusionsPostoperative AKI correlates positively with intraoperative hypertension in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. These findings provide an intraoperative evaluation criterion to predict the occurrence of postoperative AKI.

Project description:Laparoscopic colectomy has not been accepted as quickly as laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This is because of its steep learning curve, concerns with oncological outcomes, lack of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and initial reports on port-site recurrence after curative resection. The aim of this review is to summarise current evidence on laparoscopic colorectal surgery.Review of literature following Medline search using key words 'laparoscopic', 'colorectal' and 'surgery'.Laparoscopic colorectal surgery proved to be safe, cost-effective and with improved short-term outcomes. However, further studies are needed to assess the role of laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery and the value of enhanced recovery protocols in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal resections.

Project description:ImportanceSurgery represents the mainstay treatment of colorectal liver metastases. Indications for the laparoscopic approach in this setting have been widened and there is a need to confirm the benefits of minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS) in patients with complex disease states.ObjectiveTo compare outcomes of laparoscopic surgery with those of open surgery for liver metastases from colorectal cancer, focusing on the characteristics of modern MILS and therefore overcoming possible selection bias related to different policies for patients' eligibility for MILS over time.Design, setting, and participantsA cohort study of 885 resections performed for liver metastases from colorectal cancer between January 1, 2004, and June 30, 2017, at the Hepatobiliary Surgery Unit of San Raffaele Hospital, Milano, Italy, comprising 187 laparoscopic and 698 open resections. Procedures performed using the MILS approach with a ratio of MILS to total resections per year of more than 30% were considered and were matched by propensity scores (ratio of 1:4) to procedures performed using the open approach with a ratio of MILS to total resections per year of less than 30%.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary end point was short-term outcomes, including morbidity, mortality, functional recovery, and interval between surgery and adjuvant treatments; the secondary end point was long-term outcomes.ResultsAmong this cohort (104 patients in the MILS group; 46 women and 58 men; median age, 62 years [range, 35-81 years]; and 412 patients in the open group; 181 women and 231 men; median age, 60 years [range, 37-80 years]), primary end-point data showed a significantly higher incidence of postoperative morbidity in patients who underwent open resections compared with those who underwent MILS (94 [22.8%] vs 21 [20.2%]; P?=?.04). Patients in the MILS group had fewer major complications (Dindo-Clavien grades III-V) compared with patients in the open group (Dindo-Clavien grades III-V; 7 [6.7%] vs 35 [8.5%]; P?=?.03) as well as shorter lengths of stay (median [range] duration, 3 [2-35] vs 5 [4-37] days; P?=?.02). Oncologic results were not compromised by the laparoscopic approach.Conclusions and relevanceIn this study, the results of the propensity score matching analysis between modern laparoscopic surgery and previous open surgery appear to confer more comparable cohorts for complexity, further supporting the advantages of laparoscopy in the surgical treatment of liver metastases from colorectal cancer. The increase in use that laparoscopy has experienced appears to be based on increased feasibility, widening of eligibility criteria for patients, enhanced clinical effectiveness, and oncologic outcomes. All these elements together suggest that up to 70% of patients appear to be candidates for this minimally invasive surgical approach in high-volume centers.

Project description:Background: Although enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been proven to be beneficial after laparoscopic colorectal surgery, some of the patients may fail to complete the ERAS program during hospitalization. This prospective study aims to evaluate the risk factors associated with ERAS failure after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery. Methods: This is a prospective study from a single tertiary referral hospital. Patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study. Demographic and clinicopathological characteristics were collected. Post-operative activity time and 6-min walking distance (6MWD) were measured. Patients were divided into ERAS failure group and ERAS success according to decreased post-operative activity and 6MWD. Factors associated with ERAS failure were investigated by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results: A total of 91 patients with colorectal cancer were included. The incidence of ERAS failure is 28.6% among all patients. Patients in ERAS failure group experienced higher rate of post-operative ileus and prolonged hospital stay (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that older age (p = 0.006), body mass index ≥25.5 kg/m2 (p = 0.037), smoking (p = 0.002), operative time (p = 0.048), and post-operative energy intake <18.5 kcal/kg•d (p = 0.045) were independent risk factors of ERAS failure after laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Conclusions: Our findings indicated that a proportion of patients may fail the ERAS program after laparoscopic colorectal surgery. We for the first time showed that post-operative energy intake was an independent risk factor for ERAS failure. This may provide evidence for further investigation on precise measurement of nutritional status and selected high-risk patients for enhanced nutrition support.
