OBJETIVO: Determinar la existencia de diferencias en tasa de ambulatorización, dolor percibido, consumo de analgésicos y recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria (AVD) en pacientes tratados mediante colecistectomía laparoscópica multipuerto (CLMP) y colecistectomía por minilaparoscopia con material de 3 mm (MLC). MÉTODO: Estudio prospectivo aleatorizado de 40 pacientes consecutivos tratados mediante colecistectomía laparoscópica. Los criterios de pareamiento incluyeron factores ecográficos predictivos de colecistectomía técnicamente dificultosa, historia previa de enfermedad biliar complicada y factores demográficos. Se analizan los resultados en términos de tasa de ambulatorización, dolor percibido, consumo de analgésicos, recuperación de las AVD, grado de dificultad técnica, grado de hemorragia asociada, tasa de ambulatorización, porcentaje de estancia over-night, reingresos y conversión parcial o total. RESULTADOS: Ambos procedimientos mostraron similar duración de intervención, puntuación de dificultad técnica y de hemorragia. La MLC mostró porcentaje similar de ambulatorización (85%) y de estancia over-night(15%), con solo un 15% de conversiones parciales y 0% de conversión a CLMP. La MLC mostró menor dolor postoperatorio (p = 0,026), menor consumo de analgésicos (p = 0,006) con similar recuperación de las AVD (p = 0,879). CONCLUSIONES: La MLC no es inferior a la CLMP en términos de ambulatorización, resultando en menor dolor postoperatorio y menor consumo de analgésicos, con similar resultado en cuanto a reincorporación a las AVD
OBJECTIVE: Difference analysis of ambulatorization rate, pain, analgesic requirements and daily activities recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with standard multiport access (CLMP) versus a minilaparoscopic, 3 mm size, technique. METHODS: Prospective randomized trial of 40 consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Comparison criteria included predictive ultrasound factors of difficult cholecystectomy, previous history of complicated biliary disease and demographics. Results are analyzed in terms of ambulatorization rate, pain, analgesic requirements, postoperative recovery, technical difficulty, hemorrhage intensity, overnight stay, readmission rate and total or partial conversion. RESULTS: Both procedures were similar in surgery time, technical score and hemorrhage score. MLC was associated with similar ambulatorization rate, 85%, and over-night stay 15%, with only 15% partial conversion rate. MLC showed less postoperative pain (P=.026), less analgesic consumption (P=.006) and similar DAR (P=.879). CONCLUSIONS: MLC is similar to CLMP in terms of ambulatorization with less postoperative pain and analgesic requirements without differences in postoperative recovery

Introducción Evaluación prospectiva de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) mediante el gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) como sistema de priorización de pacientes en lista de espera para el proceso colecistectomía laparoscópica (CL) y su correlación con un sistema lineal de priorización (SP) desarrollado en el Instituto de Cirugía General y Aparato Digestivo (ICAD) de la Clínica Quirón de Valencia. Material y métodos Un total de 100 pacientes consecutivos a los que se les realizó CL electiva ambulatoria. Principales medidas de resultados 1) repercusión de la enfermedad mediante el GIQLI; 2) evaluación de un sistema objetivo basado en criterios científico-técnicos; 3) evaluación del valor de la CL en términos de CVRS mediante el GIQLI analizando la utilidad esperable y la obtenida en términos de change ratio (CR) y 4) análisis de la correlación entre el sistema objetivo lineal, la CVRS y la utilidad. Resultados El GIQLI es útil en la evaluación de la repercusión. La CL obtiene un beneficio en CVRS significativo en pacientes tanto oligosintomáticos como sintomáticos. Los factores objetivos o clínicos no permiten evaluar la percepción sobre el proceso ni medir o inferir la repercusión en CVRS. Un SP basado en tramos de puntuación del GIQLI permite una selección en función de la utilidad de la CL esperable (deterioro en CVRS) y obtenida (ganancia en CVRS).Conclusiones Un SP debe incluir la utilidad para garantizar la equidad. El GIQLI objetiva la repercusión sobre el paciente mientras que los factores clínicos-objetivos no tienen relación con las expectativas de priorización. Un SP debe incluir ambos a fin de mantener el equilibrio repercusión/adecuada indicación (AU)
Introduction We prospectively evaluated health-related quality of life (HRQoL) through the gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) as a system to prioritize patients on the waiting list for laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and its correlation with a linear prioritization system developed in the General and Gastrointestinal Surgery Institute of Clínica Quirón in Valencia. Material and methods There were 100 consecutive patients who underwent elective outpatient LC. The main outcome measures consisted of: 1) assessment of the impact of the disease, measured through the GIQLI; 2) evaluation of an objective system based on technical scientific criteria; 3) evaluation of the utility of LC in improving HRQoL through the GIQLI by analyzing expected and obtained utility through the change ratio, and 4) analysis of the correlation between the objective linear system, HRQoL and utility. Results The GIQLI was useful in evaluating the impact of the disease. LC significantly improved HRQoL in both oligosymptomatic and symptomatic patients. The objective or clinical factors did not allow perceptions of the process to be evaluated or the impact on HRQoL to be measured or inferred. A prioritization system based on GIQLI scores allows patients to be selected according to the expected utility (worsening of HRQoL) and obtained utility (improvement in HRQoL) of CL.Conclusions Prioritization systems should include utility to guarantee equity. The GIQLI shows the impact of the disease on the patient while the clinical/objective factors are unrelated to the expectation of prioritization. Prioritization systems should include both elements to maintain the balance between impact and appropriate indication (AU)

Introducción Aunque el patrón de comparación de la reparación de la hernia inguinal primaria es la técnica de Lichtenstein (LICH), la Hernioplastia inguinal laparoscópica totalmente extraperitoneal (TEP) muestra claras ventajas no sistemáticamente demostradas en cuanto a dolor percibido, consumo de analgésicos y recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria. Objetivo Demostrar la existencia de diferencias en dolor percibido, consumo de analgésicos y recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria entre la hernioplastia Lichtenstein versus la laparoscopia TEP. Material y métodos Estudio prospectivo, observacional no aleatorizado de 169 pacientes consecutivos sometidos a LICH vs. TEP. El LICH se realizó mediante anestesia local y sedación y el TEP con anestesia general, siendo ambos practicados en forma ambulatoria. Los puntos de análisis incluyeron: consumo de analgésicos, grado de dolor percibido y grado de recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria. Resultados El consumo de analgésicos fue menor en el grupo TEP para los días 4 y 5 postoperatorio, al igual que el dolor percibido. En referencia a la recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria se alcanzaron mínimas diferencias significativas en el 7.° día postoperatorio a favor del TEP. Conclusiones Nuestro estudio muestra una diferencia significativa en cuanto a dolor percibido y consumo de analgésicos, así como en el grado de recuperación de las actividades de la vida diaria al comparar ambos grupos. La hernioplastia tipo TEP debe ser también considerada en la hernia inguinal unilateral primaria no complicada (AU)
Introduction: Although the unique comparison standard of primary inguinal hernia repair is the Lichtenstein technique (LICH), totally extra-peritoneal (TEP) laparoscopic inguinalhernioplasty shows, although not systematically demonstrated, clear advantages as regards, perceived pain, analgesic use, and recovery of daily life activities. Objective: To demonstrate the differences in perceived pain, analgesic use, and recovery of daily life activities between Lichtenstein hernioplasty and TEP laparoscopy. Material and methods: A prospective, non-randomised observational study was conducted on 169 consecutive patients subjected to LICH vs TEP. The LICH was performed using local anaesthesia and sedation, and the TEP with general anaesthesia, both being performed as ambulatory surgery. The points of analysis included: analgesic use, level of perceived pain, and recovery of daily life activities. Results: Analgesic use was less in the TEP group for post-operative day 4 and 5, similar to the perceived pain. As regards recovery of daily life activities, the significantly minimum differences were achieved on post-operative day 7 in favour of TEP. Conclusions: Our study shows a significant difference as regards perceived pain and analgesicuse, as well as in the level of recovery of daily life activities, when comparing both groups.TEP hernioplasty should also be considered in the non-complicated primary unilateralinguinal hernia (AU)

OBJECTIVE: To devise a classification system of patients subjected to elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) which will enable the degree of surgical difficulty and possible time in surgery to be correlated with clinical, ultrasound, associated comorbidity and age group variables. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A prospective observational study of 110 patients subjected to LC in which the SCCI (Surgical Complexity Classification Index) had been calculated. The SCCI was worked out from previous studies published on patient classification systems and complication predictive factors in patients subjected to LC. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: surgical technique difficulty score, length of surgical time, post-operative stay (ambulatory). RESULTS: The cut-off value that obtained a better classification of the patients was an SCCI > in whom the technique difficulty score was 13.2 +/- 3.6 and the duration of the surgery 51.9 +/- 31 compared with the SCCI < 5 subgroup, technical difficulty score 10.5 +/- 2.8 and the duration of the surgery 6.9 +/- 11.4 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The SCCI enables the technical complexity of LC to be estimated and therefore appropriate risk management in the LC process together with improved clinical management of that process.

Objetivo. Elaborar un sistema de clasificación de pacientes sometidos a colecistectomía laparoscópica (CL) electiva que permita correlacionar el grado de dificultad quirúrgica y la posible duración de la cirugía en relación con variables clínicas y ecográficas, comorbilidades y segmentos de edad. Material y método. Estudio observacional prospectivo de 110 pacientes consecutivos sometidos a CL de quienes se ha calculado el índice de clasificación de complejidad quirúrgica (ICCQ), que se elaboró a partir de estudios previos publicados sobre sistemas de clasificación de pacientes y factores predictivos de complicaciones en pacientes sometidos a CL. Las principales medidas de resultados fueron score de dificultad técnica intraoperatoria, tiempo quirúrgico y estancia postoperatoria (ambulatorización). Resultados. El valor de corte que obtuvo una mejor clasificación de los pacientes fue ICCQ > 5, en cuyo subgrupo el score de dificultad técnica fue 13,2 ± 3,6 y la duración de la intervención, 51,9 ± 31 en comparación con el subgrupo de ICCQ < 5: score de dificultad técnica, 10,5 ± 2,8 y duración de la intervención, 36,9 ± 11,4 (p < 0,05). Conclusiones. El ICCQ permite estimar la complejidad técnica de la CL y, por lo tanto, la adecuada gestión de riesgos en el proceso de la CL junto con una mejora en la gestión clínica de dicho proceso (AU)

El tratamiento quirúrgico de los tumores benignos del cuello del páncreas ha sido clásicamente la enucleación o la pancreatectomía estándar. La pancreatectomía central se ha propuesto por su menor tasa de complicaciones y por la posibilidad de preservar la función endocrina y exocrina. Entre enero de 1999 y marzo de 2003 se realizaron en nuestro centro 3 pancreatectomías centrales por patología benigna en el cuello del páncreas. En todos los casos se realizó tomografía computarizada, ecografía intraoperatoria y estudio anatomopatológico. El examen de las piezas quirúrgicas mostró 2 cistoadenomas mucinosos y 1 cistoadenoma seroso. Ninguno de los pacientes presentó complicaciones quirúrgicas mayores, recurrencia local de la enfermedad o diabetes, con un seguimiento medio de 34 meses. Podemos decir, por tanto, que la pancreatectomía central es una técnica útil para un grupo seleccionado de pacientes con lesiones benignas en el cuello del páncreas o de bajo grado de malignidad (AU)
The surgical treatment of benign tumors of the neck of the pancreas usually consists of enucleation or formal pancreatectomy. Central pancreatectomy has been put forward because it has fewer major complications and can preserve endocrine and exocrine function. Between January 1999 and march 2003, three patients with benign tumors of the neck of the pancreas underwent central pancreatectomy. all patients underwent computed tomography scans, intraoperative ultrasound and frozen-section analysis. pathologic examination showed two mucinous cystadenomas and one serous cystadenoma. after a mean follow-up of 34 months, none of the patients has shown major complications or local recurrence, or has developed diabetes. In conclusion, central pancreatectomy is a useful technique for selected benign or low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors of the neck of the pancreas (AU)
