RESUMEN
The finding of synchronous abdominal aortic aneurysm and colorectal cancer is rare. There is no consensus on which is the best surgical approach, so its management remains uncertain. A 64-year-old man was diagnosed with synchronous abdominal aortic aneurysm and rectal cancer. One-stage treatment was performed: He underwent endovascular aortic repair followed by simultaneous laparoscopic tumor resection. In our experience, one-stage minimally invasive surgery could be a safe and feasible treatment for concomitant abdominal aortic aneurysm and colorectal cancer.

The role of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) in "oldest-old" patients with acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC) is still controversial. The aim of this study is to assess the safety of ELC for ACC in ≥ 85-year-old patients. Multicentric retrospective study that analysed data of patients who underwent ELC for ACC between 2013 and 2018. Patients ≥ 85-year-old (oldest-old patients) were compared with younger patients, before and after propensity score matching (PSM). The main outcomes were mortality, post-operative complications, length of stay (LOS), and readmissions. The study included 1670 patients. The unmatched comparison revealed a selection bias towards the oldest-old group, which was associated with higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (5 vs 1, p < 0.001), more ASA III/IV subjects (54.2% vs 19.3%, p < 0.001), class II/III ACC (80.1% vs 69.1%, p = 0.016) and higher Chole-Risk Score (p > 0.001). The oldest-old also required more conversion to open surgery (20% vs 10.3%, p = 0.005). Postoperatively, they had a higher 90-day mortality rate (7.6% vs 1%, p < 0.001), more total complications (40.6% vs 17.7%, p < 0.001), complications ≥ IIIa Clavien-Dindo (14.4% vs 5.8%, p = 0.002), longer LOS (6 vs 5 days, p < 0.001), and more readmissions (6.6% vs 2.6%, p < 0.001). After PSM (n = 206), the two groups were comparable in terms of baseline characteristics and intraoperative outcomes. No differences were observed in post-operative complications; bile leak; incisional, intrabdominal, urinary or respiratory tract infections; LOS or readmissions. In the oldest-old, ELC for ACC is still associated with significant morbidity and mortality. However, it seems to be safe in selected patients. Therefore, age itself should not be regarded as a contraindication to ELC for ACC.

Timing for early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC) is still controversial. This study assesses ELC for ACC with delayed presentation, according to hospital volume. Multicentric retrospective analysis of 1868 ELC. Patients were classified into two groups according to the timing of surgery from clinical onset and centre volume. Group 1 (G1) within the first 7 days, group 2 (G2) beyond that. Then centres were classified in low volume centres (LVC) and higher volume centres (HVC) according to the number of ELC performed per year. Overall, G2 showed increased conversion rate (17.7% vs 10.7%; p = 0.004), intraoperative complications (7.3% vs 2.9%; p = 0.001); postoperative haemorrhage (3.6% vs 0.8%; p < 0.001), infections (16.6% vs 9.3%; p = 0.003) and global complications (27.6% vs 19.8%; p = 0.011). HVC in comparison with LVC presented decreased conversion rate (17.1% vs 7.6%; p < 0.001), intraoperative bleeding (2.1% vs 1%; p = 0.047), postoperative bile leakage (4.1% vs 2.1%; p = 0.011), infectious (13.7% vs 7.5%; p < 0.001) and global complications (25.7% vs 17.1%; p < 0.001). HVC did not show an increase in any of the above-mentioned outcomes when G1 and G2 were compared. ELC must be indicated cautiously in patients with ACC and more than 1 week of symptom duration. It should be performed in centres with sufficient experience in the management of this disease.
