RESUMO
Introducción. El síndrome de la arteria mesentérica superior, también conocido como síndrome de Wilkie, es una entidad infrecuente en la que una reducción del ángulo o espacio aorto-mesentérico determina una compresión extrínseca con obstrucción del tercio distal del duodeno, demostrando síntomas y signos característicos de obstrucción intestinal. El pilar del tratamiento es el manejo médico conservador con repleción nutricional, con el objetivo de aumentar el grosor de la grasa retroperitoneal y con esto resolver la compresión duodenal. Caso clínico. Paciente de 16 años, con un curso crónico marcado por dolor abdominal, estreñimiento, distensión, pirosis y pérdida de peso. Inicialmente se trató como una enfermedad ácido-péptica, con pobre mejoría, por lo que se realizaron estudios imagenológicos con lo que se documentó una disminución del ángulo aortomesentérico. Resultado. Se instauró un manejo médico con un protocolo de repleción nutricional por vía oral, para lograr ganancia de peso y evitar la cirugía. Conclusión. Con base a los síntomas y hallazgos en imágenes diagnósticas se hizo el diagnóstico de síndrome de la arteria mesentérica superior, que es una causa de obstrucción intestinal con muy baja incidencia. Su presentación clínica incluye gran variedad de síntomas, entre los que destaca el dolor abdominal y la pérdida de peso. Es frecuente la confusión con otras enfermedades más frecuentes, como enfermedad ácido-péptica, reflujo gastrointestinal y malabsorción. Su diagnóstico requiere un alto índice de sospecha, por lo que es importante conocer esta entidad y considerarla en el estudio de pacientes con los síntomas mencionados.
Introduction. Superior mesenteric artery syndrome, also known as Wilkie syndrome, is a rare entity in which a reduction in the aorto-mesenteric angle or space determines extrinsic compression with obstruction of the distal third of the duodenum, demonstrating characteristic symptoms and signs of intestinal obstruction. The mainstay of treatment is conservative medical management with nutritional repletion, with the aim of increasing the thickness of the retroperitoneal fat and thereby resolving duodenal compression. Clinical case. A 16-year-old patient, with a chronic course marked by abdominal pain, constipation, bloating, heartburn and weight loss. Initially was treated as an acid-peptic disease, with poor improvement. Imaging studies were performed, which documented a decrease in the aorto-mesenteric angle. Conclusion. Based on the symptoms and findings on diagnostic images, the diagnosis of superior mesenteric artery syndrome was made, which is a cause of intestinal obstruction with a very low incidence. Its clinical presentation includes a wide variety of symptoms, among which abdominal pain and weight loss stand out. Confusion with other more common diseases is common, such as acid-peptic disease, gastrointestinal reflux and malabsorption. Its diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion, so it is important to know this entity and consider it in the study of patients with the aforementioned symptoms.

SUMMARY: Experimental studies devoted to the study of the mechanisms of the pathogenesis of acute peritonitis and the development of new methods of medical and surgical treatment are becoming increasingly relevant. Today, experimental medicine knows many different ways to modeling septic peritonitis and eliminate it, but the role of the local immune system is underestimated, whereas it takes a direct part in inflammation. The objective of our work to study morphological features of results of experimental modeling of septic peritonitis in white rats. The study included 15 sexually mature white male rats weighing 276.75±6.56 grams. A simulation of septic peritonitis was performed by perforating the upper part of the cecum with four punctures with a G16 injection needle. As a result of the experiment, after examination of the peritoneal cavity, all 15 animals were diagnosed with omentum tamponade of perforated damage to the caecum. In 11 cases, the perforated wall of the caecum was covered by the greater omentum (73.34 %), and in the other 4 animals, tamponade was performed by one of the epididymal omentum (26.66 %). The initial stage of tamponade with the greater or epididymal omentums of a perforated caecum begins on the first day of the experiment and consists of tight interstitial consolidation between them, as well as in the invasion of blood vessels from the omentum side to the focus of infection, which ensure the delivery of the appropriate immunocompetent cells. As a result of this process, intensive lymphoid infiltrates are formed in this area, as well as the growth of adipose tissue, which isolates the inflammatory focus from the peritoneal cavity with a thick layer.
Las investigaciones experimentales dedicadas al estudio de los mecanismos de patogénesis de la peritonitis aguda y el desarrollo de nuevos métodos de tratamiento médico y quirúrgico son cada vez más relevantes. Hoy en día, la medicina experimental conoce muchas formas diferentes de modelar la peritonitis séptica y eliminarla, pero se subestima el papel del sistema inmunológico local, mientras que él participa directamente en la inflamación. El objetivo de nuestro trabajo fue estudiar las características morfológicas de los resultados del modelado experimental de peritonitis séptica en ratas blancas. El estudio incluyó 15 ratas macho blancas, sexualmente maduras que pesaban 276,75 ± 6,56 gramos. Se realizó una simulación de peritonitis séptica perforando la parte superior del ciego con cuatro punciones con una aguja de inyección G16. Como resultado del experimento, después del examen de la cavidad peritoneal, a los 15 animales se les diagnosticó taponamiento del omento o lesión perforada del ciego. En 11 casos, la pared perforada del ciego fue recubierta por el omento mayor (73,34 %), y en los otros 4 animales el taponamiento se realizó por uno de los epidídimos (26,66 %). La etapa inicial del taponamiento con omento mayor o epidídimo de un ciego perforado comienza el primer día del experimento y consiste en una estrecha consolidación intersticial entre ellos, así como en la invasión de los vasos sanguíneos desde el lado del omento hasta el foco de infección, que aseguran la entrega de las células inmunocompetentes apropiadas. Como resultado de este proceso, se forman intensos infiltrados linfoides en esta zona, así como el crecimiento de tejido adiposo, que aísla el foco inflamatorio de la cavidad peritoneal con una gruesa capa.

Purpose To investigate the clinical feature and histopathology of pyloric gland adenoma.Methods Clinical da-ta of 16 cases of pyloric adenomas were collected.The expres-sion of Pepsinogen I,p53,MUC6,MUC5AC,CgA,Syn,CD56,Ki67,CDX-2,MUC2,β-catenin,and CD10 was detec-ted by immunohistochemistry EnVision method.The relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis was analyzed.Results There were 7 males and 9 females,aged from 26 to 81 years with an average of 58 years.Tumor diameters ranged from 0.2 to 4 centimeter with a mean of 1.3 centimeter.The anatomi-cal sites of the 16 PGA were stomach(6 cases),including 3 ca-ses in body,3 cases in fundus and duodenum(3 cases).7 ca-ses of low-grade PGAs were composed of closely packed pyloric-type glands,lined by cuboidal/low columnar epithelia.The nu-clei(round to ovoid)were basally located,with inconspicuous nucleoli.Neoplastic cells characterized by a defined ground-glass appearance,with clear or eosinophilic cytoplasm.The cell was lack of a well-defined apical mucin cap.1 case of high-grade PGAs consistently exhibited architecture,crowded nuclei,and loss of nuclear polarity.The remaining 8 cases had both low-and high-grade components.Squamous morula was found in 5 cases.According to immunohistochemical characteristics,8 of 16 cases were mixed pattern(MUC5AC+,MUC6+).Others were pure pyloric type(MUC5AC-,MUC6+).No foveolar-dominant type(MUC5AC+,MUC6-)was found.Conclusion PGA is a rare tumor of the digestive system,with characteristic morpholog-ical characteristics and immunophenotype.Clinicians and pathol-ogists need to strengthen their understanding and better manage patients because of the risk of malignant transformation.Early detection,early diagnosis and early treatment are needed.
RESUMO
AIM:To investigate the mechanism of action of Wenweiyang decoction(WWYD)in treating func-tional dyspepsia in rats based on mast cell activation and stem cell factor(SCF)/receptor tyrosine kinase c-Kit signaling pathway.METHODS:Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into control group,model group,ranitidine hydrochloride capsule group,and low-,medium-and high-dose WWYD groups,with 10 rats in each group.The rat model of functional dyspepsia was established by tail clamping and irregular feeding compound senna method.After modeling,the rats in con-trol group and model group were given normal saline,while those in low-,medium-and high-dose(0.743 g/mL,1.485 g/mL and 2.970 g/mL)WWYD groups and ranitidine hydrochloride capsule(3 g/L)group were treated with corresponding drugs by intragastric administration.After treatment,the propulsion rate of the small intestine was measured by the carbon ink propulsion method.Rat duodenal mast cells were observed and counted by toluidine blue staining.ELISA was used for determination of mast cell tryptase(MCT)and histamine(HA)content in rat duodenum.The mRNA levels of SCF and c-Kit in duodenum were detected by RT-qPCR.Western blot and immunohistochemistry were employed to determine the ex-pression levels of SCF and c-Kit in the duodenum.RESULTS:Compared with model group,WWYD treatment signifi-cantly increased the propulsion rate of the small intestine in rats(P<0.05).ELISA results showed that WWYD reduced the number of mast cells and the content of MCT and HA in the duodenal mucosa tissue of rats(P<0.05).Western blot and immunohistochemistry results suggested that WWYD up-regulated the protein expression levels of c-Kit and SCF in the duodenal tissue of rats(P<0.05),and increased the numbers of SCF and c-Kit positive cells.RT-qPCR results indicated that WWYD up-regulated the mRNA expression of c-Kit and SCF in the duodenum of rats(P<0.05).Moreover,the small intestinal propulsion rate was negatively correlated with MCT and HA content,and positively correlated with the expres-sion of SCF and c-Kit.CONCLUSION:Wenweiyang decoction promotes rat duodenal motility,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of rat duodenal MCT and HA production and activation of SCF/c-Kit signaling pathway.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging navigation combined with modified pancreaticogastrostomy in laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection.Methods:The clinical data of 14 patients undergoing laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection with indocyanine green fluorescence navigation technique combined with modified pancreaticogastrostomy from January 2019 to January 2022 in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University were retrospectively analyzed, including 4 males and 10 females, aged (40.6±7.1) years. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications and follow-up were recorded.Results:All 14 operations were successfully completed, and there was no intraoperative ICG allergic reaction. The intraoperative ICG staining facilitated the identification of common bile duct. The operation time was (325.71±23.00) min, and the time of modified pancreaticogastrostomy was (18.32±1.52) min. Intraoperative blood loss was 200 (150, 300) ml. There were no case of intraoperative blood transfusion. Postoperative complications include three cases of grade A pancreatic fistula, one of biliary fistula, and one of biliary stricture. All patients were followed up for one to 18 months, and the median follow-up time was 10 months. One patient had intermittent fever after operation. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed biliary stricture in one patient one month after operation, which was managed by endoscopic biliary stent implantation.Conclusion:Indocyanine green fluorescence navigation is safe and feasible in laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection. Combined with modified pancreaticogastrostomy, it helps skip the jejunal anastomosis and improve the efficiency of surgery.
RESUMO
Introducción. Los quistes de duplicación duodenal son malformaciones raras, que ocurren durante el desarrollo embriológico del tracto gastrointestinal. Caso clínico. Se presenta el caso de un niño de tres años, con cuadro clínico de dolor abdominal, náuseas y vómitos. La ecografía y la tomografía computarizada informaron una imagen quística entre el hígado, riñón derecho y colon. Resultados. Se realizó laparoscopia encontrando un quiste de duplicación duodenal con moco en la primera porción del duodeno. Se practicó una resección del quiste y mucosectomía del segmento restante. Conclusión. Los síntomas de un quiste de duplicación duodenal son inespecíficos y su hallazgo frecuentemente es incidental. El tratamiento quirúrgico depende del tamaño, la ubicación y su relación con la vía biliar.
Introduction. Duodenal duplication cysts are rare malformations that occur during the embryological development of the gastrointestinal tract. Clinical case. The case of a three-year-old boy with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting is presented. Ultrasound and computed tomography revealed a cyst between the liver, right kidney, and colon. Results. Laparoscopy was performed, finding a duodenal duplication cyst with mucus in the first portion of the duodenum. A resection of the cyst and mucosectomy of the remaining segment were performed. Conclusion. The symptoms of a duodenal duplication cyst are nonspecific and its finding is frequently incidental. Surgical treatment depends on the size, location, and relationship to the bile duct.
RESUMO
Introduction: Primary carcinoma of the duodenum is an infrequent malignancy; it represents 0.3-0.5% of all carcinomas of the GI tract and 33-45% of all carcinomas of the small intestine. Clinical case: A 57-year-old female patient with nonspecific GI symptoms and unintentional weight loss was diagnosed with diffuse, infiltrating, and ulcerated adenocarcinoma in the duodenum. Surgical management with duodenopancreatectomy was considered; however, it could not be performed due to deteriorating nutritional status. She later died due to abdominal sepsis. Conclusion: The clinical manifestations of adenocarcinoma of the duodenum are variable and nonspecific. It is a challenge to make an early diagnosis. We recommend considering the diagnostic possibility in patients with nausea, emesis, abdominal pain, and weight loss, which requires esophagogastroduodenoscopy and histological and immunohistochemical confirmation.

Introducción. El paraganglioma gangliocítico es una entidad histológica infrecuente, siendo el duodeno su principal localización extra ganglionar. Caso clínico. Se trata de un varón de 54 años que consulta por dolor abdominal y hemorragia digestiva alta. Se diagnosticó una lesión sospechosa de ampuloma por lo que se realizó una duodenopancreatectomía cefálica. En el análisis histológico, se confirmó el diagnóstico de paraganglioma gangliocítico metastásico por la presencia patognomónica de tres estirpes celulares (epiteliales, ganglionares y Schwann-like). Dado su buen pronóstico, asociado con baja quimiosensibilidad, no recibió tratamiento adyuvante. Resultados. Durante el seguimiento, el paciente no presentó complicaciones tardías, ni signos de recidiva después de un año de la intervención. Conclusión. El paraganglioma gangliocítico es una entidad potencialmente maligna, que requiere un correcto estudio de extensión y un seguimiento estrecho a largo plazo
Introduction. Gangliocytic paraganglioma is a rare histological entity, with the duodenum being its main extra-nodal location. Clinical case. This is a 54-year-old man who presented with abdominal pain and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. A suspicious ampuloma lesion was diagnosed, for which a pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. In the histological analysis, the diagnosis of metastatic gangliocytic paraganglioma was confirmed by the pathognomonic presence of three cell lines (epithelial, ganglionic, and Schwann-like). Given his good prognosis associated with low chemosensitivity, he did not receive adjuvant treatment. Results. During follow-up, the patient did not present late complications or signs of recurrence one year after the intervention. Conclusion. Gangliocytic paraganglioma is a potentially malignant entity that requires a correct extension study and close long-term follow-up

Liver abscess is an intra-abdominal infection characterized by localized pus collection with destruction of hepatic parenchyma. When a liver abscess ruptures and extends into adjacent structures, it leads to development of complications which further increases mortality rate. Involvement of peritoneal, pericardial and pleural cavity are often noted but, extension into gastro-intestinal tract is rare and unusual; with only a limited number of cases reported, we present a recently encountered case of liver abscess. The abscess was found to be complicated by formation of fistulous tract with duodenum.
RESUMO
Background:Duodenal neuroendocrine tumors(DNETs)are rare tumors,their disease characteristics are currently not well understood.At present,there are no research data on non-ampullary region DNETs in China.Aims:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with non-ampullary region DNETs in order to guide clinical practice.Methods:The clinical data ofnon-ampullary region DNETs diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from June 2011 to July 2022 were collected.Using the method of retrospective study,analyze the clinical characteristics of patients.Results:Twenty-two non-ampullary region DNETs patients were screened.Among them,8(36.4%)patients'tumor diameter<2 cm,14(63.6%)patients'tumor diameter≥2 cm.When non-ampullary region DNETs were diagnosed,the main clinical symptoms were abdominal distension(59.1%),followed by abdominal pain(41.0%).When diagnosed,half(50%)of patients with non-ampullary DNETs with tumor diameter<2 cm have no clinical symptoms.The clinical symptoms of non-ampullary DNETs patients with tumor diameter≥2 cm were mainly abdominal distension(85.7%),followed by abdominal pain(57.1%),and a few(14.3%)patients had no clinical symptoms.After diagnosed,the survival time of patients with tumor diameter<2 cm was longer than that of patients with tumor diameter≥2 cm(P=0.048).By the end of follow-up,the median survival time of patients with non-ampullary region DNETs was 451.0 months.Six patients had died,all of their tumor diameter were≥2 cm at diagnosis.Three of patients who died had stage Ⅳ at diagnosis,and all had liver metastases.Patients with tumor diameter<2 cm underwent surgical treatment and all survived after surgery.Conclusions:Abdominal distension is the main clinical manifestation of non-ampullary region DNETs patients,and the organ that is more likely to metastasize is the liver.The survival time of patients with non-ampullary region DNETs with tumor diameter<2 cm was longer than that of patients with tumor diameter≥2 cm.
RESUMO
Objective:To study the risk factors for duodenal injury caused by malposition of plastic bile duct stent for the treatment of biliary stricture.Methods:Data of 1 408 patients with biliary stricture (2 607 procedures of plastic stent placement) who received plastic stent placement in Hangzhou First People's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and duodenal injury caused by bile duct stent malposition after placement was recorded. The patients were divided into two groups: the malposition injury group ( n=23 procedures) and the non-malposition injury group ( n=2 584 procedures). The differences in the baseline data and procedure-related condition between the malposition injury group and the non-malposition injury group were compared, and the independent risk factors for duodenal injury caused by bile duct plastic stent malposition were studied by using logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 2 607 procedures of plastic stent placement were performed in 1 408 patients with biliary stricture, and 23 cases of duodenal injury were caused by stent malposition. Logistic regression analysis revealed that a history of gastrointestinal surgery ( OR=4.278, 95% CI: 1.332-13.737, P=0.015), a history of endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) ( OR=8.128, 95% CI: 2.382-27.738, P=0.001), and high-level bile duct stenosis ( OR=4.457, 95% CI: 1.722-11.539, P=0.002), plastic stents with a length≥ 7 cm ( OR=4.701, 95% CI: 1.708-12.938, P=0.003) and Christmas tree-shaped stent ( OR=6.890, 95% CI: 1.540-30.830, P=0.012) were independent risk factors for duodenal injury caused by bile duct plastic stent malposition. Conclusion:High-level bile duct stenosis, the use of plastic stents with a length≥ 7 cm and Christmas tree-shaped stent, a history of gastrointestinal surgery, and a history of EST could increase the risk of duodenal injury caused by bile duct plastic stent malposition in patients with bile duct stenosis.
RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) in children with pancreatic tumors after surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 123 children undergoing surgery for pancreatic tumor in Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2007 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 39 males and 84 females, with a median age of 9.8 years (6.7 to 11.8). Patients without pancreatic fistula and with biochemical leakage were included in control group ( n=95), while patients with grade B and C pancreatic fistula were divided into CR-POPF group ( n=28). The independent influencing factors of CR-POPF were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results:Among 123 children, 28 cases (22.8%) developed CR-POPF, including 24 cases (85.7%, 24/28) of grade B pancreatic fistula and 4 cases (14.3%, 4/28) of grade C pancreatic fistula. There were significant differences between CR-POPF and control groups in the age > 8 years and 4 months, tumor location, operation time >390 min and procedures (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed an increased risk of CR-POPF in children aged > 8 years and 4 months ( OR=8.226, 95% CI: 1.813-37.333, P=0.006) and undergoing duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR) ( OR=3.353, 95% CI: 1.282-8.767, P=0.014). Conclusion:Age>8 years and 4 months and DPPHR are independent risk factors for CR-POPF in children with pancreatic tumors after surgery.
RESUMO
Objective:To study the feasibility of a modified pancreatogastric anastomosis in laparoscopic duodenum preserving pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR).Methods:The clinical data of 25 patients with benign or low-grade malignant tumors of pancreatic head undergoing LDPPHR at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 7 males and 18 females, aged (44.9±6.2) years old. According to the methods of pancreatic digestive reconstruction, patients were divided into the observation group ( n=10), who underwent the modified pancreatogastric anastomosis, and the control group ( n=15) who underwent conventional pancreaticojejunal anastomosis and jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. The general data, intraoperative pancreatic digestive reconstruction time, maximum levels of amylase in abdominal drainage within three days postoperatively, postoperative complications, and hospital stay were compared between the groups. Results:All procedures were performed successfully. The intraoperative pancreatic digestive reconstruction time was shorter in the observation group [(27.8±2.4) min vs. (45.8±3.6) min, P=0.010]. The intraoperative blood loss were comparable between the groups [(140.5±14.8) ml vs. (145.2±9.7) ml, P=0.843]. The maximum level of amylase in abdominal drainage within three days postoperatively was lower in the observation group [(809.1±185.5) U/L vs. (1 385.4±481.1) U/L, P=0.031]. No grade C pancreatic fistula or postoperative hemorrhage occurred in either group, and the incidence of grade B pancreatic fistula was lower in the observation group [20.0% (2/10) vs. 60.0% (9/15), P=0.048], with a shorter postoperative hospital stay [(7.9±1.3) d vs. (10.3±2.7) d, P=0.017]. No decrease of life quality or reoperation due to pancreatic fistula, hemorrhage or digestive tract malfunction occurred in either group within a median follow-up of 15.6 months. Conclusion:In LDPPHR, the modified pancreatogastric anastomosis could help shorten the pancreatic digestive reconstruction and lower the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo study the possible mechanism of Chaihu Shugan Powder (柴胡疏肝散, CSP) in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD). MethodsTwenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, a CSP group and a probiotic group, with six rats in each group.The tail-clamping provocation method was used in all groups except for the normal group to replicate the FD rat model. Simultaneously, the normal group and the model group were given 10 ml/(kg·d) of saline by gavage, while the CSP group and the probiotic group were given 9.6 g/(kg·d) of CSP aqueous decoction and 0.945 g/(kg·d) of probiotic aqueous solution by gavage, respectively, twice daily for four weeks. After four weeks, the gastric emptying and small intestinal propulsion rates were detected in each group of rats. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the histopathological changes in the gastric sinusoids and duodenum of the rats. The changes in the intestinal flora were analyzed by 16s rDNA high-throughput gene sequencing, and the expressions of the duodenal zona occludin 1 (ZO-1) and Occludin were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blotting. Pearson correlation analysis was performed on intestinal flora and ZO-1 and Occludin protein expression. ResultsThe gastric antrum tissue structure was clear in all groups, and the gland structure was regular, with smooth gastric tissue mucosa and no pathological changes such as erosion and ulcer. Compared to those in the normal group, the intestinal villi in the duodenal tissue in the model group were significantly reduced or atrophied, and the goblet cells were arranged in disorder, with eosinophilic infiltration; the gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate, as well as ZO-1 and Occludin protein expression in duodenal tissue significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared to those in the model group, the duodenal tissue structure was clear, and the length intestinal villi was longer, with goblet cells neatly arranged in the CSP group and the probiotic group; no obvious eosinophil infiltration was found, and the gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate as well as ZO-1 and Occludin protein expression significantly increased in the CSP group; a small amount of eosinophil infiltration was found, and the gastric emptying rate and Occludin protein expression significantly increased in the probiotic group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Beta diversity analysis of intestinal flora showed that the overall structure of intestinal flora in the model group changed significantly compared to that in the normal group (P<0.01). The overall structure of the intestinal flora in the CSP group and the probiotic group was closer to the normal group than the model group. Species composition analysis showed that the relative abundance of the Firmicutes decreased, while the relative abundance of the Bacteroidetes and norank_f_Muribaculaceae increased, and the Bacteroidetes/Firmicutes value increased in the model group than those in the normal group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared to those in the model group, the relative abundance of the Firmicutes increased, while the relative abundance of the Bacteroidetes and norank_f_Muribaculaceae, as well as the Bacteroidetes/Firmicutes value decreased in the CSP group and the probiotic group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in each indicator between the probiotic group and the CSP group (P>0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that at the phylum level, Firmicutes was positively correlated with ZO-1 (r=0.610, P=0.016) and Occludin (r=0.694, P=0.004) protein expression. Bacteroidetes was negatively correlated with ZO-1 (r=-0.557, P=0.031) and Occludin (r=-0.662, P=0.007) protein expression. At the genus level, norank_f_Muribaculaceae was negatively correlated with ZO-1 (r=-0.727, P=0.002) and Occludin (r=-0.760,P=0.001) protein expression. ConclusionCSP can restore the structure of intestinal flora, regulate the abundance levels of Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes and norank_f_Muribaculaceae, up-regulate ZO-1 and Occludin proteins, and thus repairing the duodenal mucosal barrier, and playing a therapeutic role in FD rats.
RESUMO
Introdução: A síndrome da artéria mesentérica superior (SMAS) resulta da compressão extrínseca dela e obstrução sintomática da terceira porção do duodeno anteriormente, e pela aorta posteriormente. Esse estreitamento leva à compressão extrínseca e à obstrução do duodeno, impedindo a passagem do conteúdo intestinal. Objetivo: Por meio de revisão integrativa, sintetizar evidências sobre o tratamento dessa síndrome. Métodos: Revisão integrativa da literatura com síntese de evidências. A base de dados escolhida para seleção dos trabalhos foi o PUBMED, utilizando a seguinte estratégia de busca: "superior mesenteric artery syndrome"[title] AND (treatment[title] OR surgical[title]). Foram considerados para revisão os trabalhos publicados entre os anos de 2018 e 2023. Resultados: Inicialmente foram identificados 13 trabalhos que atenderam à estratégia de busca previamente estabelecida. Após a leitura dos títulos e resumos, 4 textos foram excluídos por não discutirem o tema proposto, restando 9 trabalhos para revisão. Conclusão: As modalidades cirúrgicas disponíveis para o tratamento da SMA foram consideradas seguras, com baixos índices de recidiva, além de eficazes no controle de sintomas e no manejo da síndrome.
Introduction: Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) results from extrinsic compression and symptomatic obstruction of the third portion of the duodenum by it anteriorly, and by the aorta posteriorly. This narrowing leads to extrinsic compression and obstruction of the duodenum, preventing the passage of intestinal contents. Objective: Through an integrative review, to synthesize evidence on the treatment of SMAS. Methods: Integrative literature review with evidence synthesis. The database chosen for the selection of papers was PUBMED, using the following search strategy: "superior mesenteric artery syndrome"[title] AND (treatment[title] OR surgical[title]). Papers published between the years 2018 and 2023 were considered for review. Results: Initially, 13 papers were identified that met the previously established search strategy. After reading the titles and abstracts, 4 were excluded for not discussing the proposed theme, leaving 9 papers for review. Conclusion: The surgical modalities available for SMA treatment were considered safe, with low recurrence rates, and effective in symptom control and management of the syndrome.
RESUMO
Introducción. Aproximadamente el 5 % de los divertículos duodenales pueden causar síntomas y el 1 % presentar complicaciones, siendo la colangitis la más frecuente. El síndrome de Lemmel corresponde a un tipo de ictericia obstructiva intermitente, asociado a la presencia de divertículos periampulares y disfunción del esfínter de Oddi, sin presencia de coledocolitiasis. Método. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura en Pubmed, Google Académico y ProQuest, con los términos: síndrome de Lemmel, divertículo duodenal sintomático e ictericia obstructiva intermitente. Resultados. Se encontraron 38 casos, siendo España el país con mayor número, seguido de México, Japón y Colombia. No hay diferencias de distribución con respecto al género. El tratamiento más frecuentemente empleado fue la colangio pancreatografia retrógrada endoscópica. Conclusión. El síndrome de Lemmel es poco frecuente, sin un cuadro clínico especifico, con un incremento en los casos informados en los últimos años, posiblemente debido a la mejor disponibilidad de métodos diagnósticos. Es más frecuente en pacientes en la octava década de la vida y su tratamiento generalmente es endoscópico
Introduction. Approximately 5% of duodenal diverticula can cause symptoms and 1% have complications, cholangitis being the most common. Lemmel syndrome corresponds to a type of intermittent obstructive jaundice, associated with the presence of peri-ampullary diverticula and sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, without choledocholithiasis. Method. A systematic review of the literature was carried out in Pubmed, Google Scholar, ProQuest, with the terms: Lemmel syndrome, symptomatic duodenal diverticulum, and intermittent obstructive jaundice.Results. 38 cases were found, Spain being the country with the highest number, followed by Mexico, Japan and Colombia. There are no differences in distribution with respect to gender. The most frequently used treatment was endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.Conclusion. Lemmel syndrome is a rare disease, without a specific clinical presentation, with an increase in reported cases in recent years possibly due to the better availability of diagnostic methods. It is more frequent in patients in the eighth decade of life and its treatment is generally endoscopic

Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome also known as Wilkie’s Syndrome is a rare condition characterized by symptoms of small bowel obstruction. It is caused when the angle between the SMA and aorta, also known as the aorto-mesenteric angle, reduces to <25° which, in turn, causes the compression of the third part of the duodenum which traverses between the SMA and the aorta. We, herein, present the case of a 31-year-old female who was diagnosed to have Wilkie’s syndrome. Failing a trial of conservative management, she was ultimately definitively managed by surgery.
RESUMO
Los gastrinomas son tumores neuroendocrinos localizados generalmente en duodeno y páncreas, en el contexto de una neoplasia endocrina múltiple y configurando un síndrome de Zollinger-Ellison. La localización de este tipo de tumor en ganglios linfáticos es extremadamente inusual y su diagnóstico precoz constituye un verdadero reto para poder instaurar un tratamiento adecuado y manejar las complicaciones que estos conllevan. Se presenta el caso de un paciente varón de 64 años con un gastrinoma de ganglio linfático y cuya extirpación quirúrgica resultó en la remisión inmediata del cuadro clínico del paciente.
Gastrinomas are neuroendocrine tumors usually located in the duodenum and pancreas, in the context of a Multiple Endocrine Neoplasm and forming a Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The location of this type of lymph node tumor is extremely unusual and its early diagnosis constitutes a real challenge to be able to establish an adequate treatment and manage the complications that these entail. We present the case of a 64-year-old male patient with a lymph node gastrinoma and whose surgical removal resulted in the immediate remission of the patient's symptoms.
RESUMO
SUMMARY: Diabetes mellitus (DM) mainly affects functional changes in the duodenum, which plays an important role in the digestion and absorption of food. The impairment of duodenal function contributes to malnutrition, abdominal bloating and pain in diabetic patients. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the histological alterations and quantitative measurements of duodenal structures in the early stage of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three control and five diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced by a single intraperitoneal dose of 60 mg/kg STZ. After four weeks of diabetic induction, the duodenum was prepared for histological study and morphometric analysis. In diabetic rats, there were deformed villi with disrupted surface epithelium and mildly distorted shapes of crypts, together with an increase in villus height and crypt depth. The epithelial cells detached from their underlying basement membrane. The goblet cells decreased in number, whereas an increased number of Cellula panethensis (Paneth cells) with pale-stained eosinophilic granules occurred in the DM group. A diabetic thickened submucosal layer was observed as enhanced duodenal glands (Brunner's glands) hypertrophy and collagen accumulation. These findings indicated that histopathologic lesions of the duodenum developed in the early stage of diabetes. The destruction of villi, crypts, and epithelium may affect digestion and absorption. The structural changes in goblet and Cellula panethensis and duodenal glands may be associated with malfunction to protect duodenal mucosa from bacteria and stomach acid. These conditions can worsen the quality of life in diabetic individuals, leading to complications such as maldigestion, malabsorption, and duodenal ulcer.
RESUMEN: La diabetes mellitus (DM) afecta principalmente a cambios funcionales en el duodeno, que juega un papel importante en la digestión y absorción de los alimentos. El deterioro de la función duodenal contribuye a la desnutrición, distensión abdominal y dolor en pacientes diabéticos. Por lo tanto, este estudio tuvo como objetivo estudiar las alteraciones histológicas y determinar las mediciones cuantitativas de las estructuras duodenales en la etapa temprana de ratas diabéticas inducidas por estreptozotocina (STZ). Ocho ratas macho Sprague-Dawley fueron distribuidas en dos grupos: tres ratas control y cinco diabéticas. La diabetes se indujo mediante una dosis intraperitoneal única de 60 mg/kg de STZ. Después de cuatro semanas de inducción, se preparó el duodeno para estudio histológico y análisis morfométrico. En ratas diabéticas, había vellosidades deformadas con epitelio superficial destruido y formas ligeramente distorsionadas de las criptas, junto con un aumento en la altura de las vellosidades y la profundidad de las criptas. Las células epiteliales se encontraban separadas de la membrana basal subyacente. Las células caliciformes habían disminuido en número, mientras que en el grupo DM se produjo un aumento en el número de Cellula panethensis (células de Paneth) con gránulos eosinofílicos teñidos pálidos. Se observó una capa submucosa engrosada con aumento de la hipertrofia de las glándulas duodenales (glándulas de Brunner) y acumulación de colágeno. Estos hallazgos indican que las lesiones histopatológicas del duodeno se desarrollaron en la etapa temprana de la diabetes. La destrucción de vellosidades, criptas y epitelio puede afectar la digestión y la absorción. Los cambios estructurales en Cellula panethensis y glándulas duodenales pueden estar asociados con un mal funcionamiento en la protección de la mucosa duodenal tanto de las bacterias como del ácido gástrico. Estas condiciones pueden empeorar la calidad de vida de las personas diabéticas y provocar complicaciones como mala digestión, malabsorción y úlcera duodenal.
