RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Surgery for obesity and metabolic diseases has been evolved in the light of new scientific evidence, long-term outcomes and accumulated experience. EAES has sponsored an update of previous guidelines on bariatric surgery. METHODS: A multidisciplinary group of bariatric surgeons, obesity physicians, nutritional experts, psychologists, anesthetists and a patient representative comprised the guideline development panel. Development and reporting conformed to GRADE guidelines and AGREE II standards. RESULTS: Systematic review of databases, record selection, data extraction and synthesis, evidence appraisal and evidence-to-decision frameworks were developed for 42 key questions in the domains Indication; Preoperative work-up; Perioperative management; Non-bypass, bypass and one-anastomosis procedures; Revisional surgery; Postoperative care; and Investigational procedures. A total of 36 recommendations and position statements were formed through a modified Delphi procedure. CONCLUSION: This document summarizes the latest evidence on bariatric surgery through state-of-the art guideline development, aiming to facilitate evidence-based clinical decisions.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to develop a grading system based on preoperative parameters that would predict surgical difficulty and morbidity in elective laparoscopic splenectomy. STUDY DESIGN: We retrospectively assessed morbidity in 439 patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy for benign and malignant disorders between 1993 and 2013. Medical and surgical records were reviewed and analyzed. We compared preoperative data concerning demographic, clinical, pathological, anatomical, laboratory, and radiological factors with three surgical outcomes: operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and surgical conversion. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify statistically significant variables. A logistic regression model was used to identify determinant variables and to compose a predictive score. External validation of the score was performed using an independent cohort of 353 patients. RESULTS: Four preoperative parameters (age, male sex, type of pathology, and spleen size based on final spleen weight) were significantly related with operative time, operative bleeding, and conversion to open surgery. Using these results, we developed a classification system with three levels of difficulty: low (≤4 points), medium (4.5-5.5 points), and high (≥6 points), based on the four preoperative parameters. The correlation was highly significant (p = <0.001) according to Spearman's correlation. The area under the ROC curve was 0.671 (95 % CI 0.596-0.745). The external validation showed significant correlations with the present model. CONCLUSIONS: The grading score described here is simple to calculate from the physical examination, laboratory tests, and US or CT images, and we believe it could be useful to preoperatively assess the technical complexity of laparoscopic splenectomy.

INTRODUCTION: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has become a technique in its own right although a selective or global indication remains controversial. The weight loss data at 5 years are heterogeneous. The aim of the study is to identify possible prognostic factors of insufficient weight loss after SG. METHODS: A SG retrospective multicenter study of more than one year follow-up was performed. Failure is considered if EWL>50%. Univariate and multivariate study of Cox regression were performed to identify prognostic factors of failure of weight loss at 1, 2 and 3 years of follow up. RESULTS: A total of 1,565 patients treated in 29 hospitals are included. PSP per year: 70.58±24.7; 3 years 69.39±29.2; 5 years 68.46±23.1. Patients with EWL<50 (considered failure): 17.1% in the first year, 20.1% at 3 years, 20.8% at 5 years. Variables with influence on the weight loss failure in univariate analysis were: BMI>50kg/m2, age>50years, DM2, hypertension, OSA, heart disease, multiple comorbidities, distance to pylorus> 4cm, bougie>40F, treatment with antiplatelet agents. The reinforcement of the suture improved results. In multivariate study DM2 and BMI are independent factors of failure. CONCLUSION: The SG associates a satisfactory weight loss in 79% of patients in the first 5 years; however, some variables such as BMI>50, age>50, the presence of several comorbidities, more than 5cm section of the pylorus or bougie>40F can increase the risk of weight loss failure.

BACKGROUND: There is an extended belief that the laparoscopic approach to left colectomy (LC) is technically more demanding and associated with more postoperative complications than to right colectomy (RC). However, there is no consensus in the literature about whether the short-term outcomes of RC differ from those of LC. The aim of this paper was to compare the postoperative course of patients undergoing RC and LC. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 1000 consecutive patients who underwent a laparoscopic RC or LC between 1998 and 2012. Factors analyzed were intraoperative complications, surgical time, postoperative complications, and length of stay. The two groups were divided into four subgroups (neoplasia, diverticular disease, polyps, and others). RESULTS: LC was associated with more postoperative complications than RC and longer operative time both in the two main groups (postoperative complications 30 vs. 19%; operative time 139 vs. 118 min) and in the neoplasia subgroups (27 vs. 18%; 137 vs. 118 min). No differences between groups were found for rates of reintervention or death. Comparison between LC subgroups showed that the operative time was longer and the conversion rate was higher in the diverticular disease subgroup than in the neoplasia subgroup (155 vs. 137 min; 21 vs. 8%). CONCLUSIONS: In this large cohort of patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy, LC carried a higher risk than RC of postoperative complications. These findings provide new data on the differences between the two surgeries. Our findings strengthen the notion that right and left colectomies have a different intraoperative and postoperative course and should be analyzed as two separate entities.

INTRODUCTION: The introduction of laparoscopic surgery (LS) can be considered the most important advancement in our specialty in the past 25 years. Despite its advantages, implementation and consolidation has not been homogenous, especially for advanced techniques. The aim of this study was to analyse the level of development and use of laparoscopic surgery in Spain at the present time and its evolution in recent years. MATERIAL AND METHODS: During the second half of 2012 a survey was developed to evaluate different aspects of the implementation and development of LS in our country. The survey was performed using an electronic questionnaire. RESULTS: The global response rate was 16% and 103 heads of Department answered the survey. A total of 92% worked in the public system. A total of 99% perform basic laparoscopic surgery and 85,2% advanced LS. Most of the responders (79%) consider that the instruments they have available for LS are adequate and 71% consider that LS is in the right stage of development in their environment. CONCLUSIONS: Basic laparoscopic surgery has developed in our country to be considered the standard performed by most surgeons, and forms part of the basic surgical training of residents. With regards to advanced LS, although it is frequently used, there are still remaining areas of deficit, and therefore, opportunities for improvement.

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) consists of a longitudinal resection of the stomach on the greater curvature, removing 75-80% of the stomach approximately and creating a cylindrical "sleeve"-like conduit. However, LSG can be associated with significant morbidity, and staple-line failure with dehiscence and gastric leak is one of the most severe complications. The aim of this study was to compare three different methods of gastric closure in terms of staple-line strength and leak pressures of the sleeved stomach. METHODS: After performing standard stapled sleeve gastrectomies, the gastric specimens were carefully retrieved. Group 1 specimens were left with the staple line intact. In group 2, the staple line was reinforced with a 3-0 polypropylene running suture. The gastric remnants of group 3 were those in which the LSG was performed using Seamguard as the buttressing material. The burst-pressure was assessed using a portable gas sensor. The outcome parameters were: age of the patients, body mass index, buttress material (suture, Seamguard, etc.), leak pressure, volume infused, and leak site, among others. RESULTS: Thirty-six sleeve gastrectomies were included in the final analysis. Each group consisted of 12 gastric specimens. There were no differences between groups in terms of age, sex, body mass index, and patient comorbidities. The leak pressure was significantly higher in group 2 (35 ± 11.7 vs. 102 ± 21.4 vs. 47 ± 19.1; p = <0.0005). The volume of liquid required to cause the leak was much greater in the group 3 (p = <0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Oversewing is the reinforcement method that increases better the staple-line strength. It is the least expensive method of reinforcement and does not increase operative times significantly.

INTRODUCTION: Given the increase in the diagnosis in colon cancer and the access to treatment in patients over 80 years old, our aim is to assess whether laparoscopic surgery still has the demonstrated advantages in post-operative recovery, as well as to analyse the factors that may influence these results. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A retrospective analysis was made on a total of 593 patients subjected to elective laparoscopy surgery due to cancer of the colon between January 1999 and December 2010. They were divided into three age groups: A) less than 70 years (n = 230), B) 70-79 years (n = 209), C) 80 years or over (n=154). The independent variables were: gender, concomitant diseases, previous abdominal surgery, Karnosfky index, BMI, level of, haemoglobin, proteins and albumin, CEA, and ASA grade, location and stage of tumour. The peri-operative dependent variables were: conversion, operating time and blood loss; and post-operative: local and general complications, need for intensive care, further surgery, hospital stay, and death. RESULTS: Group C had a higher incidence (P<.001) of arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, chest disease and grade 3 ASA, as well as lower values for the Karnofsky Index, body mass index (BMI), haemoglobin, albumin and total protein. A higher incidence (P>.001) of general complications (respiratory and urinary), further surgery, admission to intensive care unit, longer hospital stay and death, was also observed in the post-operative period in this group. CONCLUSION: Although laparoscopic surgery offers advantages to patients over 80 years-old, this group has a higher risk of complications than the younger population and, as a result, we must take great care in their management.

BACKGROUND: Complications in sleeve gastrectomy (SG) can cast a shadow over the technique's good results and compromise its safety. The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for complications, and especially those that can potentially be modified to improve safety. METHODS: A retrospective multicenter cohort study was carried out, involving the participation of 29 hospitals. Data was collected on demographic variables, associated comorbidities, technical modifications, the surgeon's experience, and postoperative morbimortality. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was carried out on risk factors (RFs) for the complications of leak/fistula, hemoperitoneum, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, and death. RESULTS: The following data were collected for 2882 patients: age, 43.85 ± 11.6. 32.9 % male; BMI 47.22 ± 8.79; 46.2 % hypertensive; 29.2 % diabetes2; 18.2 % smokers; bougie calibre ≥40 F 11.1 %; complications 11.7 % (2.8 % leaks, 2.7 % hemoperitoneum, 1.1 % pneumonia, 0.2 % pulmonary embolism); and death 0.6 %. RFs for complications were as follows: surgeon's experience < 20 patients, OR 1.72 (1.32-2.25); experience > 100 patients, OR 0.78 (0.69-0.87); DM2, OR1.48(1.12-1.95); probe > 40 F, OR 0.613 (0.429-0.876). Leak RFs were the following: smoking, OR1.93 (1.1-3.41); surgeon's experience < 20 patients, OR 2.4 (1.46-4.16); experience of 20-50 patients, OR 2.5 (1.3-4.86); experience >100 patients, OR 0.265 (0.11-0.63); distance to pylorus > 4 cm, OR 0.510 (0.29-0.91). RFs for death were as follows: smoking, OR 8.64 (2.63-28.34); DM2, OR 3.25 (1.1-9.99); distance to pylorus < 5 cm, OR 6.62 (1.63-27.02). CONCLUSIONS: The safety of SG may be compromised by nonmodifiable factors such as age >65, patient comorbidities (DM2, hypertension), and prior treatment with anticoagulants, as well as by modifiable factors such as smoking, bougie size <40 F, distance to the pylorus <4 cm, and the surgeon's experience (<50-100 cases).

BACKGROUND: Splenic metastases are extremely unusual. The aim of this paper is to review the world experience to date concerning to laparoscopic approach for splenic metastasis, and to report ours at the Hospital de Sant Pau. METHODS: Literature review was carried out and relevant reports on laparoscopic approach to splenic metastasis were obtained. In addition, we reviewed our patient's database and retrieved the data of those who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy due to splenic involvement. RESULTS: Electronic search yielded 8 relevant articles on open splenectomy and 7 articles on laparoscopic splenectomy for splenic metastasis. During the study period, 6 patients were operated on laparoscopically. Primary neoplasms were 3 melanomas, 2 colon carcinomas, and 1 malignant fibrous histiocytoma. None of the patients had surgical complications. Outcome ranged from 2-month to 11-year survival. CONCLUSIONS: The laparoscopic approach for splenic metastasis is feasible. Of course, it must be individualized in each case.

INTRODUCCIÓN: La gastrectomía vertical (GV) se ha convertido en una técnica con entidad propia cuya indicación selectiva o global sigue siendo objeto de controversia. Los resultados ponderales a 5 años son heterogéneos. El objetivo del estudio es identificar posibles factores pronósticos de pérdida de peso insuficiente tras GV. MÉTODOS: Estudio multicéntrico retrospectivo de GV con seguimiento mayor de un año. Se considera fracaso si el PSP < 50%. Se realiza estudio univariado y multivariado de regresión de Cox para determinar los factores que influyen en el fracaso ponderal a 1, 2 y 3 años de seguimiento. RESULTADOS: Se incluye a 1.565 pacientes intervenidos en 29 hospitales. PSP al año: 70,58 ± 24,8; a los 3 años 69,39 ± 29,2; a los 5 años 68,46 ± 23,1. Pacientes con PSP <50 (considerado fracaso ponderal): 17,1% en el primer año, 20,1% a 3 años, 20,8% a 5 años. Las variables que mostraron relación con el fracaso ponderal en el estudio univariado fueron: IMC > 50 kg/m2, edad > 50 años, DM2, HTA, SAOS, cardiopatía, varias comorbilidades asociadas, distancia a píloro > 5 cm, bujía >40 F, tratamiento con antiagregantes. La sobresutura mejora los resultados. Las variables que mostraron ser factores predictivos de fracaso en el seguimiento fueron la DM2 y el IMC. CONCLUSIÓN: La GV asocia una pérdida de peso satisfactoria en el 79% de los pacientes en los primeros 5 años; sin embargo, algunas variables como el IMC > 50, la DM2, la edad > 50, la presencia de varias comorbilidades, la sección a más de 4cm del píloro o la bujía > 40 F pueden aumentar el riesgo de fracaso ponderal

INTRODUCCIÓN: La introducción de la cirugía laparoscópica (CL) puede considerarse el avance más importante que ha experimentado nuestra especialidad en los últimos 25 años. A pesar de sus ventajas, la implantación y consolidación de la CL no ha sido homogénea, especialmente si tenemos en cuenta las técnicas laparoscópicas avanzadas. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el nivel de desarrollo e implantación de la CL en España en el momento actual y analizar su evolución en los últimos años. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Durante el segundo semestre de 2012 se desarrolló una encuesta que evaluaba distintos aspectos relacionados con la implantación y el desarrollo de la CL en nuestro país. La encuesta se realizó mediante un cuestionario electrónico. RESULTADOS: La tasa global de respuesta a la encuesta fue del 16% y 103 jefes de Servicio contestaron el cuestionario. El 92% correspondió a cirujanos de centros sanitarios públicos. El 99% de los encuestados realizaba CL básica y el 85,2%, avanzada. La mayor parte de los encuestados (79%) considera que el instrumental y los equipos para CL de los que dispone son correctos y el 71% considera que, en su medio, la CL está en el lugar adecuado. CONCLUSIONES: La CL básica ha logrado desarrollarse en nuestro país hasta considerarse un estándar practicado por la mayoría de los cirujanos y ser parte de la formación básica del residente de cirugía. Con respecto a la CL avanzada, aunque los porcentajes de utilización son altos, todavía existen déficits y, en consecuencia, oportunidades de mejora

Introducción: Dado el aumento del diagnóstico de cáncer de colon y el acceso al tratamiento en pacientes mayores de 80 años, nuestro objetivo es valorar si el abordaje laparoscópico sigue aportando las ventajas demostradas en la recuperación postoperatoria, al tiempo que analizamos los factores que pueden influir en dichos resultados. Material y método Se han analizado retrospectivamente 593 pacientes, intervenidos de cáncer de colon por laparoscopia de forma electiva entre enero de 1999 y diciembre de 2010. Se dividieron en 33 grupos: A) menores de 70 años (n = 230), B) 70-79 años (n = 209), C) mayores o igual a 80 años (n=154). Las variables independientes: sexo, enfermedades asociadas, cirugía abdominal previa, índice de Karnosfky, índice de masa corporal (IMC), nivel de hemoglobina, proteínas y albúmina, CEA, grado de ASA, localización y estadificación tumoral. Variables dependientes perioperatoria: conversión, tiempo operatorio y pérdidas hemáticas; y postoperatorias: complicaciones locales y generales, requerimiento de unidad de cuidados intensivos, reintervenciones, estancia hospitalaria y éxitus. Resultados El grupo C presentó una mayor incidencia (p<0,001) de hipertensión arterial, diabetes mellitus, cardiopatía, neumopatía y ASA grado 3, así como valores inferiores de índice de Karnofsky, IMC, hemoglobina, albúmina y proteínas totales. Durante el postoperatorio se observó (p>0,001), mayor incidencia de complicaciones generales (respiratorias y urinarias), reintervenciones, ingresos en unidad de cuidados intensivos, éxitus y mayor estancia hospitalaria. Conclusión Aunque la cirugía laparoscópica ofrece ventajas a los pacientes mayores de 80 años con cáncer de colon, este grupo de pacientes presenta un mayor riesgo de complicaciones que la población más joven y, en consecuencia, debemos ser cuidadosos en su manejo (AU)
