Manejo nutricional en la rehabilitación multimodal precoz en cirugía pancreática / Nutrition management in enhanced recovery after abdominal pancreatic surgery

Los programas de rehabilitación multimodal precoz son estrategias estandarizadas perioperatorias con el objetivo de mejorar la recuperación del paciente, disminuir las complicaciones, la estancia hospitalaria y el coste sanitario. El aspecto nutricional es un componente esencial de la rehabilitación multimodal precoz, recomendándose realizar un cribado nutricional previo al ingreso hospitalario, evitar el ayuno prequirúrgico mediante una sobrecarga oral de hidratos de carbono, e iniciar de manera precoz la ingesta oral posquirúrgica. Sin embargo, no existen protocolos estandarizados de progresión de dieta en cirugía pancreática. Se realiza una revisión de las diferentes estrategias nutricionales publicadas desde 2006 hasta 2016 en la rehabilitación multimodal precoz de este tipo de cirugía y sus posibles implicaciones en la evolución postoperatoria. Los estudios evaluados son muy heterogéneos por lo que no se pueden extraer resultados concluyentes sobre el protocolo de dieta a implementar, su influencia en variables clínicas ni la necesidad o no de nutrición artificial concomitante (AU)

Multimodal rehabilitation programs are perioperative standardized strategies with the objective of improving patient recovery, and decreasing morbidity, hospital stay and health cost. The nutritional aspect is an essential component of multimodal rehabilitation programs and therefore nutritional screening is recommended prior to hospital admission, avoiding pre-surgical fasting, with oral carbohydrate overload and early initiation of oral intake after surgery. However, there are no standardized protocols of diet progression after pancreatic surgery. A systematic review was been performed of papers published between 2006 and 2016, describing different nutritional strategies after pancreatic surgery and its possible implications in postoperative outcome. The studies evaluated are very heterogeneous, so conclusive results could not be drawn on the diet protocol to be implemented, its influence on clinical variables, or the need for concomitant artificial nutrition (AU)

[Crossed renal ectopia in a patient with a complicated sigma neoplasia]. / Ectopia renal cruzada en un paciente con neoplasia de sigma complicada.

BACKGROUND: Crossed renal ectopia is a rare pathology that is often asymptomatic. Intraoperative detection with a sigma complicated neoplasia is more infrequent and requires correct management to avoid a renal ureteral injury. AIM: To present a case report of a patient with a sigma complicated neoplasia and a crossed renal ectopia detected incidentally. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 62-year-old man that was submitted for emergency surgery for a sigma perforated neoplasm, and who presented with a previously undiagnosed left-side CRE. During surgery there was a need to insert 2-double-J stents as a guide to both ureters and to avoid any injury to them. DISCUSSION: Crossed renal ectopia is a rare, often asymptomatic entity, the diagnosis of which is usually incidental. In our case, the detection of a concomitant complicated neoplasm, required identification of both ureters due the anatomic doubt of its localization and to avoid them being injured. In conclusion, upon finding a casual crossed renal ectopia during an emergency surgery of sigma, we recommend the identification of the ureters to facilitate its location and to avoid any injury to the ureters.
