RESUMEN

Objective: To determine whether Aquacel Ag Hydrofiber dressings containing ionic silver are superior to film dressings for preventing superficial surgical site infections (SSI) in patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery. Background: Multiple clinical trials have assessed the effectiveness of silver-containing wound dressings; however, systematic reviews failed to find any advantages of these dressings and concluded that there was insufficient evidence to indicate that they prevented wound infections. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Aquacel Ag Hydrofiber dressings for preventing superficial SSIs in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. Methods: Patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery were randomly assigned to receive either Aquacel Ag Hydrofiber (study group) or film dressings (control group). The primary end point was superficial SSI within 30 days after surgery (UMIN Clinical Trials Registry ID: 000043081). Results: A total of 865 patients (427 study group, 438 control group) were qualified for primary end-point analysis. The overall rate of superficial SSIs was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group (6.8% vs 11.4%, P = 0.019). There was no significant difference in superficial SSI rates between the groups in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery; however, the rate was significantly lower in the study group in patients undergoing lower gastrointestinal surgery (P = 0.042). Multivariate analysis identified Aquacel Ag Hydrofiber dressings as an independent factor for reducing superficial SSIs (odds ratio, 0.602; 95% confidence interval, 0.367-0.986; P = 0.044). Conclusions: Aquacel Ag Hydrofiber dressings can reduce superficial SSIs compared to film dressings in patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery, especially lower gastrointestinal surgery.

RESUMEN

A 38-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital due to severe anemia. CT showed a 13×12 cm tumor with moderately enhanced wall thickening in the right upper abdomen. The huge tumor located adjacent to the jejunum and compressed the right transverse colon. Hemorrhagic necrosis and air were observed within the tumor, suspecting tumor penetration into the jejunum. The patient was diagnosed with abdominal GIST with jejunal infiltration. Laparotomy revealed a 13× 11 cm solid mass with intra-tumoral hemorrhage and invasion into the jejunum, located in the transverse mesocolon. Tumor resection combined with partial jejunectomy and transverse colectomy were performed. Immunohistochemical findings of the resected specimen was positive for c-kit and DOG-1, and the MIB-1 positive rate was 10%. Three weeks after the operation, re-anastomosis was performed due to transverse colon anastomotic stricture. She was discharged 45 days after first operation. Currently, 9 months after the operation, patient has been prescribed imatinib and is alive without recurrence.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Ampullary adenomas are premalignant lesions. However, biliary obstruction causing jaundice is rare. Duodenal intussusception secondary to an ampullary adenoma rarely occurs because of the fixed position of the duodenum in the retroperitoneum. Herein, we have described a rare case of ampullary adenoma with jaundice caused by duodenal intussusception. CASE PRESENTATION: A 40-year-old woman presenting with vomiting and yellowish discoloration of the skin was admitted to another hospital. The patient had experienced recurrent epigastric pain and vomiting for the past 18 months. Blood test results showed elevated levels of bilirubin (3.9 mg/dL), and abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed a 60-mm hypovascular mass in the third part of the duodenum and a left lateral shift of the dilated common bile duct. The patient was referred to our hospital for further evaluation. She recovered from hyperbilirubinemia spontaneously (levels of bilirubin, 1.0 mg/dL), and the CT showed a tumor shift from the third part of the duodenum to the second part and improvement of the dilated common bile duct. Hypotonic duodenography revealed a tumor that moved easily from the second to the third portion of the patient's position. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a large papillary tumor occupying the second part of the duodenum, which was diagnosed as an adenoma through biopsy. The possibility of malignancy could not be negated owing to the presence of jaundice and an elevated carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level (76.0 U/mL). Pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. The resected specimen showed a 60 × 40 × 40-mm pedunculated ampullary mass with submucosal elongation. The pathological examination indicated that the ampullary tumor was a high-grade intestinal adenoma. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged 26 days postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: This report describes a rare case of a patient with an ampullary adenoma presenting with jaundice resulting from duodenal intussusception. Owing to the possibility of a postoperative cancer diagnosis which may have caused the biliary obstruction and the difficulty in making an accurate preoperative diagnosis, it is imperative to choose the appropriate surgical procedure such as a pancreaticoduodenectomy.

RESUMEN

A 70-year-old woman underwent conservative treatment for abscess-forming appendicitis. A contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography(CT)revealed a cystic lesion at the appendiceal base while the abscess had disappeared posttreatment. With the diagnosis of a low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm(LAMN), a laparoscopic-assisted ileocolic resection was performed. The appendix was distended with mucus in the lumen. Histopathological examination showed that the tumor cells were more atypical than that of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm. There were no findings of adenocarcinoma, such as invasive growth. Therefore, high-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm(HAMN)was diagnosed. HAMN is a term advocated by Carr et al in 2016 to classify appendiceal mucinous neoplasm and was noted as a new category of mucinous tumors among appendiceal epithelial tumors in the fifth edition of the 2019 revised WHO classification. HAMN is a rare disease and only one case has been reported in Japan. It has not yet been noted in the Japanese Colorectal Cancer Treatment Manual. Here, we report this rare case with a review of the study.

RESUMEN

Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) have been a very controversial tumor, and there is a lack of standardization for the optimal surgical procedure due to the infrequency of this disease. This is the first case report of duplicate appendix complicated by LAMN. The preoperative imaging examinations revealed that the mucinous tumor was shrinking spontaneously, allowing for safe laparoscopic resection. The histopathological findings indicated a dilated common base of the duplicated appendix, suggesting that the mucinous content drained spontaneously to the cecum. Further studies of the various complications of LAMNs are needed to establish the optimal surgical approach for LAMNs.

RESUMEN

This is the case of a 72-year-old man in whom multiple colorectal cancers including rectal and appendiceal cancers and synchronous S3 liver metastases were observed in 2014, and resection was performed in 2 stages. In 2017, a single recurrence was found in the liver S8, and he underwent a liver S8 sub-segmental resection. Implantation of a CV port for postoperative chemotherapy was planned. At the time of insertion, the catheter was punctured from the exterior portion of the left subclavian vein to avoid the pinch-off syndrome wherein the catheter is crushed between the clavicle and the first rib. Subsequently, FOLFOX therapy was started, but it was discontinued because of allergic symptoms, which appeared during the third course. Two years after the CV port was implanted, a catheter fracture was found on a chest X-ray performed during a regular visit. Since the detached catheter did not fall into the vein, it was possible to remove the port under fluoroscopy. When a catheter is implanted, even under ultrasound guidance, it is considered important to always keep in mind the possibility of a catheter fracture and to detect and respond to it early.
