RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The introduction of the 1 mm cut-off for resection margin according to the Leeds Pathology Protocol has transformed the concept of surgical radicality. Its impact on nodal-positive resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients is unclear. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of margin clearance on survival among resected, nodal-positive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients whose specimens were analysed according to the Leeds Pathology Protocol. METHODS: Data were collected retrospectively from multicentre clinical databases. Resected patients with nodal involvement were included. Overall survival and disease-free survival were analysed according to minimum reported margin clearances of 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 mm. The results are reported separately for patients who had not undergone venous resection and for patients for whom data were available regarding the superior mesenteric vein-facing margin or the vein specimen. The eighth edition of TNM classification by the AJCC was used. RESULTS: The study comprised 290 stage IIB patients and 215 stage III patients without venous resection. The superior mesenteric vein margin analysis comprised 127 stage IIB patients and 198 stage III patients. The different resection margin distances were not associated with overall survival and disease-free survival among patients without venous resection (P > 0.050). Receiving adjuvant therapy was associated with longer overall survival among stage IIB patients (P = 0.034) and stage III patients (P = 0.003) and with longer disease-free survival among stage III patients (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, a margin clearance greater than 1 mm showed no clear effect on overall survival in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients with nodal involvement, whereas adjuvant therapy was confirmed to be essential to ensure longer overall survival.

BACKGROUND Benign parathyroid adenoma is a cause of hypercalcemia, which can lead to acute pancreatitis. Patients with acute pancreatitis are at risk for venous thrombosis. This report describes a 34-year-old woman with hypercalcemia due to parathyroid adenoma and acute pancreatitis associated with splenic vein and superior mesenteric vein thrombosis. CASE REPORT A previously healthy 34-year-old woman presented with severe epigastric pain that radiated to the back, associated with vomiting. Her abdominal examination was soft and lax, with epigastric and left upper quadrant tenderness. Pancreatitis with splenic and superior mesenteric veins thrombosis was diagnosed. The diagnosis was confirmed by an elevated serum lipase level and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of abdomen. Her serum calcium level was elevated. However, further workup revealed elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and radiological imaging showed parathyroid adenoma. She was diagnosed with hypercalcemia-induced pancreatitis secondary to hyperparathyroidism with intraabdominal venous thrombosis. The patient was initially treated conservatively, and later underwent parathyroidectomy after her condition was stabilized. The patient is currently in good condition, after a 2-year follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Acute pancreatitis and thrombosis secondary to primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) are rare, but can lead to potentially fatal complications, especially in patients without symptoms of PHPT. This report highlights the importance of recognizing that hypercalcemia associated with parathyroid adenoma can result in acute pancreatitis, leading to hypercoagulable states and inflammation of adjacent vessels, including the splenic and mesenteric veins. To the best of our knowledge, this is second case report of acute pancreatitis with intraabdominal venous thrombosis secondary to PHPT.

Since its first description in 1898, pancreaticoduodenectomy has constantly been improved, allowing increasingly more complex operations to be performed even with a minimally invasive approach: laparoscopic and, in recent years, robotic approach. In most cases, similarly to open surgery, parenchymal transection is performed after the creation of a retropancreatic tunnel to ensure adequate control of the mesenteric vessels before sectioning the parenchyma. Sometimes tunnelling can be very difficult even dangerous to achieve, due to conditions such as: vascular involvement by the neoplasm of superior mesenteric vein (SMV) or portal vein (PV); fibrosis secondary to acute pancreatitis (AP) or radiotherapy. In such conditions, it seems suitable to avoid tunnelling before parenchymal transection. We will describe how we perform the standard technique which we will call 'Tunnel First approach' (TF) and then our new 'Parenchyma Transection-First' (PTF) approach in its two variants: 'bottom to top' and 'top to bottom'.

BACKGROUND: Creation of a tension-free colorectal anastomosis after left colon resection or low anterior resection is a key requirement for technical success. The relative contribution of each of a series of known lengthening maneuvers remains incompletely characterized. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare technical procedures for lengthening of the left colon before rectal anastomosis. DESIGN: A series of lengthening maneuvers was performed on 15 fresh cadavers. Mean distance gained was measured for each successive maneuver, including 1) high inferior mesenteric artery ligation, 2) splenic flexure takedown, and 3) high inferior mesenteric vein ligation by the ligament of Treitz. SETTING: Cadaveric study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The premobilization and postmobilization position of the proximal colonic end was measured relative to the inferior edge of the sacral promontory. Measurements of the colonic length relative to the sacral promontory were taken after each mobilization maneuver. The inferior mesenteric artery, sigmoid colon, and rectum specimen lengths were measured. The distance from the inferior border of the sacral promontory to the pelvic floor was measured along the sacral curvature. RESULTS: Mean sigmoid colon resection length was 34.7 ± 11.1 cm. Before any lengthening, baseline reach was -1.3 ± 4.2 cm from the sacral promontory. Inferior mesenteric artery ligation yielded an additional 11.5 ± 4.7 cm. Subsequent splenic flexure takedown added an additional 12.8 ± 9.6 cm. Finally, inferior mesenteric vein ligation added an additional 11.33 ± 6.9 cm, bringing the total colonic length to 35.7 ± 14.7 cm. BMI and weight negatively correlated with length gained. LIMITATIONS: The study was limited by nature of being a cadaver study. CONCLUSIONS: Stepwise lengthening maneuvers allow significant additional reach to allow a tension-free left colon to rectal anastomosis. See Video Abstract .

La relativa contribución de las diversas maniobras de alargamiento permanece caracterizada de manera incompleta.OBJETIVO:El propósito de este estudio fue la de comparar procedimientos técnicos de alargamiento del colon izquierdo previo a la anastomosis rectal.DISEÑO:Una serie de maniobras de alargamiento fueron realizados en 15 cadáveres frescos. La distancia promedio ganada fue medida para cada maniobra sucesiva, incluyendo (1) ligadura alta de la arteria mesentérica inferior, (2) descenso del ángulo esplénico, (3) ligadura alta de la vena mesentérica interior mediante el ligamento de Treitz.AJUSTES:Estudio cadavérico.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:La posición premobilizacion y postmobilizacion del extremo proximal del colon fue medido tomando en cuenta el borde inferior del promontorio sacro. Las mediciones de la longitud colónica en relación al sacro fueron tomadas luego de cada maniobra de movilización. Fueron tomadas así mismo las longitudes de la arteria mesentérica inferior, el colon sigmoides y recto. Las distancias desde el borde inferior del promontorio sacro al suelo pelvico fueron medidas a lo largo de la curvatura sacra.RESULTADOS:Average sigmoid colon resection length was 34.7 ± 11.1 cm. Prior to any lengthening, baseline reach was -1.3 ± 4.2 cm from the sacral promontory. Inferior mesenteric artery ligation yielded an additional 11.5 ± 4.7 cm. Subsequent splenic flexure takedown added an additional 12.8 ± 9.6 cm. Finally, inferior mesenteric vein ligation added an additional 11.33 ± 6.9 cm, bringing the total colonic length to 35.7 ± 14.7 cm. BMI and weight negatively correlated with length gained.LIMITACIONES:Este estudio tuvo como limitación la naturaleza de haber sido un estudio cadavérico.CONCLUSIONES:Maniobras de alargamiento permiten un alcance adicional significativo permitiendo de esta manera una anastomosis de colon izquierdo a recto libre de anastomosis.

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) with portal-superior mesenteric vein (PV/SMV) resection and reconstruction is increasingly performed. We aimed to introduce a safe and effective surgical approach and share our clinical experience with LPD with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction. METHODS: We reviewed data for the patients undergoing LPD and open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) combined with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction at the First Hospital of Jilin University between April 2021 and May 2023. The inferior-posterior "superior mesenteric artery-first" approach was used. We compared the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative clinicopathological data of the 2 groups to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of LPD with major vascular resection. RESULTS: A cohort of 37 patients with periampullary and pancreatic tumors underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) with major vascular resection and reconstruction, consisting of 21 LPDs and 16 OPDs. The LPD group had a longer operation time (322 vs. 235 min, P =0.039), reduced intraoperative bleeding (152 vs. 325 mL, P =0.026), and lower intraoperative blood transfusion rates (19.0% vs. 50.0%, P =0.046) compared with the OPD group. The LPD group had significantly shorter operation times in end-to-end anastomosis (26 vs. 15 min, P =0.001) and artificial grafts vascular reconstruction (44 vs. 22 min, P =0.000) compared with the OPD group. There was no significant difference in the rate of R0 resection (100% vs. 87.5%, P =0.096). The length of hospital stay and ICU stay did not show significant differences between the 2 groups (15 vs. 18 d, P =0.636 and 2.5 vs. 4.5 d, P =0.726, respectively). However, the postoperative hospital stay in the LPD group was notably shorter compared with the OPD group (11 vs. 16 d, P =0.007). Postoperative complication rates, including postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) Grade A/B, biliary leakage, and delayed gastric emptying (DGE), were similar between the two groups (38.1% vs. 43.8%, P =0.729). In addition, 1 patient in each group developed thrombosis, with vascular patency improving after anticoagulation treatment. CONCLUSION: LPD combined with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction can be easily and safely performed using the inferior-posterior "superior mesenteric artery-first" approach in cases of venous invasion. Further studies are required to evaluate the procedure's long-term outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants have shown similar efficacy and lower bleeding rates than vitamin K antagonists for venous thromboembolism. However, this has not been proven in mesenteric vein thrombosis. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of vitamin K antagonists and non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants. METHODS: Between January 2014 and July 2022, mesenteric vein thrombosis was diagnosed on computed tomography in 225 patients in a tertiary hospital. Among them, a total of 44 patients who underwent long-term anticoagulation therapy over 3 months were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups based on the anticoagulant used: vitamin K antagonists (Group 1, n = 21) and non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (Group 2, n = 23). The efficacy outcomes were symptom recurrence and thrombus resolution on follow-up computed tomography, and the safety outcome was bleeding complications. RESULTS: The median age of the patients was 56 years (range, 46-68 years), and 52% were men. The most common risk factors were unprovoked intra-abdominal infections (30%). The median duration of anticoagulation therapy was 13 months (20 months in Group 1 vs 6 months in Group 2; P = .076). Of the 44 patients, 17 (39%) received the standard treatment. The median follow-up period was longer in Group 1 than in Group 2 (57 vs 28 months; P = .048). No recurrence of mesenteric vein thrombosis-related symptoms were observed in either group. The median duration of follow-up computed tomography was 31 months (42 months in Group 1 vs 18 months in Group 2; P = .064). Computed tomography revealed complete thrombus resolution, partial resolution, and no changes in 71%, 19%, and 10%, respectively (P = .075). Regarding bleeding complications, varix bleeding and melena developed in two patients in Group 2, and anticoagulation treatment thereafter ceased. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the short follow-up duration in the non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants group, there was no clinically significant difference in the thrombus resolution rate or bleeding complications when compared with the vitamin K antagonists group. Although research on the long-term effects of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in patients is limited, non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants can be considered an alternative to conventional treatments.

ABSTRACT: Gastrointestinal bleeding is a common clinical symptom. Finding the underlying cause is the first step for treatment. In a few patients, this can be difficult. The present work reports on the unusual case of a 53-year-old man who presented gastrointestinal bleeding. No bleeding site was found by gastrocolonoscopy or interventional examination, but after multidisciplinary consultation, we discovered that the cause of gastrointestinal bleeding was the obstruction of the upper mesenteric vein.

There are many reports on the positional relationship between the ileocolic artery and superior mesenteric vein (SMV). However, there have been no reports of anomalous venous confluence in the ileocecal vessel area. A 69-year-old man was diagnosed with cecal cancer on a preoperative examination of a lung tumor. We planned to perform surgery for the cecal cancer. Computed tomography angiography revealed an anomalous vein confluence in the ileocolic region. We performed robot-assisted ileocecal resection. Although the small intestinal vein was misidentified as the SMV at first, we confirmed the misidentification, identified the SMV on the dorsal side of the ileocolic artery, and ligated the ileocolic vessels with precise forceps manipulation during robotic surgery. Especially for cases with vascular anomalies revealed by preoperative computed tomography angiography, robotic surgery may be useful, as flexible forceps manipulation prevents vascular injury.

PURPOSE: Although venous drainage of the jejunal loop may be maintained after sacrifice of jejunal vein tributaries during pancreatoduodenectomy, risk of severe jejunal mesenteric congestion following division of these tributaries can be difficult to predict. This study considered how best to predict safety of jejunal vein tributary dissection. METHODS: Preoperative imaging findings and results of intraoperative clamp tests of jejunal vein tributaries during pancreatoduodenectomy were analyzed in 121 patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease to determine whether this information adequately predicted safety of resecting superior mesenteric vein branches. RESULTS: Jejunal vein tributaries caudal to the inferior border of the pancreatic uncinate process tended to be fewer when tributaries cranial to this landmark were more numerous. Tributaries cranial to the border drained a relatively wide expanse of jejunal artery territory in the jejunal mesentery. The territory of jejunal tributaries cranial to the inferior border of the pancreas did not vary according to course of the first jejunal vein branch relative to the superior mesenteric artery. One patient among 30 (3%) who underwent intraoperative clamp tests of tributaries cranial to the border showed severe congestion in relation to a venous tributary coursing ventrally to the superior mesenteric artery. CONCLUSION: Jejunal venous tributaries drained an extensive portion of jejunal arterial territory, but tributaries located cranially to the inferior border of the pancreas could be sacrificed without congestion in nearly all patients. Intraoperative clamp testing of these tributaries can identify patients whose jejunal veins must be preserved to avoid congestion.

Background: Acute superior mesenteric venous thrombosis (ASMVT) decreases junction-associated protein expression and intestinal epithelial cell numbers, leading to intestinal epithelial barrier disruption. Pyroptosis has also recently been found to be one of the important causes of mucosal barrier defects. However, the role and mechanism of pyroptosis in ASMVT are not fully understood. Methods: Differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) in the intestinal tissues of ASMVT mice were detected by transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq). Gene expression levels were determined by RNA extraction and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Western blot and immunofluorescence staining analysis were used to analyze protein expression. H&E staining was used to observe the intestinal tissue structure. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidine iodide (FITC/PI) were used to detect cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. Dual-luciferase reporter assays prove that miR-138-5p targets NLRP3. Results: miR-138-5p expression was downregulated in ASMVT-induced intestinal tissues. Inhibition of miR-138-5p promoted NLRP3-related pyroptosis and destroyed tight junctions between IEC-6 cells, ameliorating ASMVT injury. miR-138-5p targeted to downregulate NLRP3. Knockdown of NLRP3 reversed the inhibition of proliferation, apoptosis, and pyroptosis and the decrease in tight junction proteins caused by suppression of miR-138-5p; however, this effect was later inhibited by overexpressing HMGB1. miR-138-5p inhibited pyroptosis, promoted intestinal epithelial tight junctions and alleviated ASMVT injury-induced intestinal barrier disruption via the NLRP3/HMGB1 axis.

Introduction: Portomesenteric venous thrombosis (PMVT) may complicate sleeve gastrectomy. We believe that single dose of enoxaparin postoperatively can reduce the risk of PMVT. Objective: The objective was to study the outcomes of enoxaparin single dose compared to other perioperative prophylactic doses in preventing PMVT. Methods: Participants included 590 patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). These retrospective cohort data were collected from patient medical charts after bariatric surgery. Patients were followed up in the close postoperative period and at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months. Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out. The objective was to estimate the incidence of PMVT with postoperative single 40 mg subcutaneous enoxaparin prophylactic regimen. Results: From January 2017 to December 2021, 590 patients with obesity underwent LSG. Five patients developed PMVT with an estimate incidence of 0.85%. Three patients had unexplained tachycardia and three patients had postoperative bleeding. Conclusions: Single-dose enoxaparin 40 mg is an effective thrombosis prophylaxis without increasing risk of bleeding.

BACKGROUND: The mesenteric venous reservoir plays a vital role in mediating blood volume and pressure changes and is richly innervated by sympathetic nerves; however, the precise nature of venous sympathetic regulation and its role during hypertension remains unclear. We hypothesized that sympathetic drive to mesenteric veins in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats is raised, increasing mean circulatory filling pressure (MCFP), and impairing mesenteric capacitance. METHODS: Arterial pressure, central venous pressure, mesenteric arterial, and venous blood flow were measured simultaneously in conscious male Wistar and SH rats. MCFP was assessed using an intraatrial balloon. Hemodynamic responses to volume changes (±20%) were measured before and after ganglionic blockade and carotid body denervation. Sympathetic venoconstrictor activity was measured in situ. RESULTS: MCFP in vivo (10.8±1.6 versus 8.0±2.1 mmâ Hg; P=0.0005) and sympathetic venoconstrictor drive in situ (18±1 versus 10±2 µV; P<0.0001) were higher in SH rats; MCFP decreased in SH rats after hexamethonium and carotid body denervation (7.6±1.4; P<0.0001 and 8.5±1.0 mmâ Hg; P=0.0045). During volume changes, arterial pressure remained stable. With blood loss, net efflux of blood from the mesenteric bed was measured in both strains. However, during volume infusion, we observed net influx in Wistar (+2.3±2.6 mL/min) but efflux in SH rats (-1.0±1.0 mL/min; P=0.0032); this counterintuitive efflux was abolished by hexamethonium and carotid body denervation (+0.3±1.7 and 0.5±1.6 mL/min, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: In SH rats, excessive sympathetic venoconstriction elevates MCFP and reduces capacitance, impairing volume buffering by mesenteric veins. We propose selective targeting of mesenteric veins through sympathetic drive reduction as a novel therapeutic opportunity for hypertension.

OBJECTIVE: Acute mesenteric vein thrombosis (AMVT) is an acute abdominal disease with onset, rapid progression, and extensive intestinal necrosis that requires immediate surgical resection. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for nosocomial intestinal resection in patients with AMVT. METHODS: We retrospectively analysed 64 patients with AMVT diagnosed by CTA at the Affiliated Hospital of Kunming University of Science and Technology from January 2013 to December 2021. We compared patients who underwent intestinal resection (42 patients) with those who did not undergo intestinal resection (22 patients). The area under the ROC curve was evaluated, and a forest map was drawn. RESULTS: Among the 64 patients, 6 (9.38%) had a fever, 60 (93.75%) had abdominal pain, 9 (14.06%) had a history of diabetes, 8 (12.5%) had a history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and 25 (39.06%) had ascites suggested by B ultrasound or CT after admission. The mean age of all patients was 49.86 ± 16.25 years. The mean age of the patients in the enterectomy group was 47.71 ± 16.20 years. The mean age of the patients in the conservative treatment group (without enterectomy) was 53.95 ± 15.90 years. In the univariate analysis, there were statistically significant differences in leukocyte count (P = 0.003), neutrophil count (P = 0.001), AST (P = 0.048), total bilirubin (P = 0.047), fibrinogen (P = 0.022) and DD2 (P = 0.024) between the two groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that admission white blood cell count (OR = 1.153, 95% CI: 1.039-1.280, P = 0.007) was an independent risk factor for intestinal resection in patients with AMVT. The ROC curve showed that the white blood cell count (AUC = 0.759 95% CI: 0.620-0.897; P = 0.001; optimal threshold: 7.815; sensitivity: 0.881; specificity: 0.636) had good predictive value for emergency enterectomy for AMVT. CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with AMVT, patients with a higher white blood cell count at admission were more likely to have intestinal necrosis and require emergency enterectomy. This study is helpful for clinicians to accurately determine whether emergency intestinal resection is needed in patients with AMVT after admission, prevent further intestinal necrosis, and improve the prognosis of patients.

Living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is an established treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease or acute liver failure, and outflow reconstruction is considered one of the most vital techniques in LDLT. To date, many strategies have been reported to prevent outflow obstruction, which can be refractory to liver dysfunction and can cause life-threatening graft loss or mortality. In addition, in this era of laparoscopic hepatectomy in donor surgery, especially LDLT using a left liver graft, it has been predicted that cutting the hepatic vein with automatic linear staplers will lead to more outflow-related problems than with conventional open hepatectomy because of the short neck of the anastomosis orifice. We herein review 10 cases of venoplasty performed with a novel venous cuff system using a donor's round ligament around the hepatic vein in LDLT with a left lobe graft, which makes anastomosis of the hepatic vein sterically easy for postoperative venous patency.

BACKGROUND: The worldwide vaccination response to COVID-19 has been associated with rare thrombotic complications, including the case of postvaccination splanchnic venous thrombosis we report here. CASE PRESENTATION: An 80-year-old Japanese male with abdominal pain presented to our hospital six days after receiving a dose of the COVID-19 messenger ribonucleic acid vaccine. Abdominal computed tomography showed localized edema of the small intestine, increased density of the surrounding adipose tissue, and a thrombus in the superior mesenteric vein. Conservative inpatient treatment with unfractionated heparin relieved the thrombosis, and the patient is currently receiving oral apixaban as an outpatient. CONCLUSION: Reported cases of thrombosis after COVID-19 vaccination typically have been associated with viral vector vaccines, with few reports of thrombosis induced by mRNA vaccines. The potential for venous thrombosis should be explored when patients present with abdominal pain soon after COVID-19 vaccination.

INTRODUCTION: Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a rare but lethal disease. Mesenteric vein thrombosis (VAMI) is a subtype of AMI. Morbid obesity is usually accompanied by hypertension, hyperlipidemia, or diabetes mellitus, which are risk factors associated with AMI. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 28-year-old man with VAMI post-laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. He was first misdiagnosed with intestinal obstruction. Superior VAMI was confirmed after computed tomography angiography. Laparotomy, resection of the necrotic small bowel, and ostomy were performed immediately. CONCLUSION: Patients with morbid obesity accompanied by hypertension, hyperlipidemia, or diabetes mellitus have a high risk of AMI. Abdominal pain with sudden onset should be considered AMI. Anticoagulation therapy post-sleeve gastrectomy might help reduce the incidence of AMI.
