RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Stenosis is one of the most common complications in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) is the treatment of choice for a short stenosis adjacent to the anastomosis from previous surgery. Self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) may be a suitable treatment option for longer stenoses. To date, however, there is no scientific evidence as to whether endoscopic (EBD/SEMS) or surgical treatment is the best approach for de novo or primary stenoses that are less than 10 cm in length. METHODS/DESIGN: Exploratory study as "proof-of-concept", multicentre, open-label, randomized trial of the treatment of de novo stenosis in the CD; endoscopic treatment (EBD/SEMS) vs surgical resection (SR). The type of endoscopic treatment will initially be with EDB; if a therapeutic failure occurs, then a SEMS will be placed. We estimate 2 years of recruitment and 1 year of follow-up for the assessment of quality of life, costs, complications, and clinical recurrence. After the end of the study, patients will be followed up for 3 years to re-evaluate the variables over the long term. Forty patients with de novo stenosis in CD will be recruited from 15 hospitals in Spain and will be randomly assigned to the endoscopic or surgical treatment groups. The primary aim will be the evaluation of the patient quality of life at 1 year follow-up (% of patients with an increase of 30 points in the 32-item Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ-32). The secondary aim will be evaluation of the clinical recurrence rate, complications, and costs of both treatments at 1-year follow-up. DISCUSSION: The ENDOCIR trial has been designed to determine whether an endoscopic or surgical approach is therapeutically superior in the treatment of de novo stenosis in CD.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) constitutes the application of a series of perioperative measures based on the evidence, in order to achieve a better recovery of the patient and a decrease of the complications and the mortality. These ERAS programs initially proved their advantages in the field of colorectal surgery being progressively adopted by other surgical areas within the general surgery and other surgical specialties. The main excluding factor for the application of such programs has been the urgent clinical presentation, which has caused that despite the large volume of existing literature on ERAS in elective surgery, there are few studies that have investigated the effectiveness of these programs in surgical patients in emergencies. The aim of this article is to show ERAS measures currently available according to the existing evidence for emergency surgery.
RESUMO
To compare immunonutrition versus standard high calorie nutrition in patients undergoing elective colorectal resection within an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program.Despite progress in recent years in the surgical management of patients with colorectal cancer (ERAS programs), postoperative complications are frequent. Nutritional supplements enriched with immunonutrients have recently been introduced into clinical practice. However, the extent to which the combination of ERAS protocols and immunonutrition benefits patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery is unknown.The SONVI study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized trial with 2 parallel treatment groups receiving either the study product (an immune-enhancing feed) or the control supplement (a hypercaloric hypernitrogenous supplement) for 7 days before colorectal resection and 5 days postoperatively.A total of 264 patients were randomized. At baseline, both groups were comparable in regards to age, sex, surgical risk, comorbidity, and analytical and nutritional parameters. The median length of the postoperative hospital stay was 5 days with no differences between the groups. A decrease in the total number of complications was observed in the immunonutrition group compared with the control group, primarily due to a significant decrease in infectious complications (23.8% vs. 10.7%, Pâ=â0.0007). Of the infectious complications, wound infection differed significantly between the groups (16.4% vs. 5.7%, Pâ=â0.0008). Other infectious complications were lower in the immunonutrition group but were not statistically significantly different.The implementation of ERAS protocols including immunonutrient-enriched supplements reduces the complications of patients undergoing colorectal resection.This study is registered with ClinicalTrial.gov: NCT02393976.

La rehabilitación multimodal quirúrgica (ERAS) constituye la aplicación de una serie de medidas perioperatorias basadas en la evidencia, con el fin de lograr una mejor recuperación del paciente y una disminución de las complicaciones y la mortalidad. Estos programas de rehabilitación multimodal inicialmente demostraron sus ventajas en el ámbito de la cirugía colorrectal siendo adoptados progresivamente por otras áreas quirúrgicas dentro de la cirugía general y por otras especialidades quirúrgicas. El factor excluyente principal para la aplicación de este tipo de programas ha sido la presentación clínica urgente, lo que ha provocado que a pesar del gran volumen de literatura existente sobre ERAS en cirugía electiva, existan pocos estudios que hayan investigado la efectividad de estos programas en pacientes quirúrgicos en urgencias. El objetivo de este artículo es mostrar las medidas de recuperación intensificada de que disponemos en la actualidad según la evidencia existente para cirugía urgente. (AU)

Extragonadal endometriosis is rarely diagnosed preoperatively for the variety of its localizations. Presentations to general surgeons may be atypical and pose diagnostic difficulty, mimicking other acute diseases. We report three cases treated with surgical operation. Case 1: a 28-year-old woman admitted for bowel obstruction due to coecal endometriosis, with appendix mucocele, peritoneal pseudomyxoma and ovarian endometrioma. The patient underwent right colectomy and right adnexectomy in the emergency setting. Case 2: a 31-year-old woman with endometriosis of the distal extraperitoneal portion of the round ligament presenting as an irreducible inguinal hernia. An operation was performed: the round ligament and a polycystic structure encompassing it were completely excised. Case 3: a 41-year-old woman, with umbilical endometriosis diagnosed by her gynaecologist, was admitted to our department for excision. Surgical treatment of extragonadal endometriosis is adequate. However, postoperative follow-up is mandatory and hormonal suppressive therapy may be indicated by the gynaecologist.
