Filter by:Analyze the correlation between the conformity of the anatomy (based on endoscopic examination) and postoperative anastomotic fistula and anastomotic stenosis; establish an anastomotic classification; and construct a predictive model combined with perioperative-related test indicators to provide more accurate risk assessment for clinical practice. Analyze the natural recovery process of postoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in esophageal cancer by tracking vocal cord movement (based on endoscopic examination) and hoarseness symptoms; combined with perioperative related surgical and laboratory indicators, identify the relevant risk factors associated with delayed recovery of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
The aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the mobile application "Colorectal Leakage App" in the early diagnosis of anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgeries at the National Research Oncology Center in Astana, Kazakhstan. Main Questions: 1. Development, validation, and implementation of the mobile application "Colorectal Leakage App," based on the Dutch Leakage Score. 2. Evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of the application in detecting anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgeries. 3. Determine the frequency of anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgeries performed in the colorectal surgery sector of the National Research Oncology Center in the Astana city. Participants in the study, individuals aged 18 and above undergoing colorectal surgeries, will be monitored by the mobile application "Colorectal Leakage App" in the postoperative period for early identification of anastomotic leakage.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the presentation, treatment, and outcomes in patients suffering traumatic pancreatic injuries from blunt or penetrating trauma. The questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Does a statistically significant association exist between pancreatic injury grade and the following individual factors: - Mortality - Morbidity - Injury severity score 2. Is there an association between post-operative pancreatic complications and operation-specific intervention? 3. Does pancreatic injury score correlate with certain intra-abdominal organ injuries? Participants meeting criteria are greater than 18 years old, with no history of pancreatic surgery who were hospitalized at Kern Medical Center after presenting to the institution's emergency department as tier 1 or 2 trauma activations following blunt or penetrating abdominal injury and were diagnosed with pancreatic injury during the same hospitalization.
Pilot RCT with 20 patients in both test and control group. In the control group resection & anastomosis was done using the conventional method. In the test group after devascularisation the resection line was marked on the bowel wall and IRT done using a forward looking infra- red camera with a rainbow display. Resection line was determined by a sharp change in colour on the display screen (corresponding to > 30C change in surface temperature) over the visualised bowel wall. Margins were revised if difference between surgeon and IRT determined resection lines were more than 1cm apart. Anastomosis was done as per surgeon's preference.AL was the primary outcome measure. Hospital stay, operative time, blood loss, post-operative complications as per Clavien-Dindo classification were the secondary outcome measures.
Purpose: To validate the safety and effectiveness of xBar monitoring tool for detection of post-operative anastomotic leaks in subjects undergoing rectal/sigmoid resections with anastomosis. The clinical team is blinded to the leak detection of the xBar system.
We reviewed the patient underwent colorectal surgery with anastomosis and identified patients with anastomotic leak. Then we started to figure out what blood investigation could be related to anastomotic leak.
Conflicting reports of the association between early postoperative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) administration and anastomotic leak (AL) after rectal surgery have continued. The definition of AL and the exposure of NSAIDs differ from each other among studies, which may result in the different conclusions. The aim of this retrospective study was to clarify the effect of NSAIDs on anastomotic leak from new angels.
Esophageal cancer continues to be one of the most challenging topics and the subjects of numerous studies. Surgery is the mainstay for curative treatment and the need to improve all aspects of perioperative management in order to reduce morbidity and mortality, continues to be of immense importance. Cited as the sixth most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide, esophageal cancer has a distinct geographic distribution known as the esophageal cancer belt: north central China through the central Asian republics to northern Iran, and from eastern to southern Africa. Squamous-cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma are the two main histological subtypes of esophageal cancer, in a geographic differentiation as well, with squamous-cell carcinoma as the most common esophageal cancer subtype worldwide. Though adenocarcinoma is at a considerable rise in Western populations and has become the predominant subtype North America, Australia and Europe. Although an ongoing improvement has been marked in the long-term survival after esophagectomy, it is still a highly invasive procedure with serious post-operative complications and entails a high morbidity and mortality rates. Rates of mortality and morbidity range vastly in the literature with 30-day mortality reaching 11-22%. Complication rates up to 50%, with anastomotic leaks as the main complication ranging widely 0-35%. Various risk factors have been proposed as contributors to mortality and morbidity in general and to anastomotic leaks in particular. These include both patient and tumoral characteristics such as premedical history and perioperative factors as tumor location, surgical technique and perioperative treatment. The microbiome as a contributor to a patients' disease progression and management is of great interest in the understanding and better management of cancer patients as a whole and of the gastrointestinal tract in specific. The contribution of the microbiome of a patient to colorectal cancer progression and to anastomotic leaks in the post-operative period has been addressed vastly in the literature in recent years, showing a distinct correlation to specific microbiota profile. Shogan et al. depicted a potential molecular mechanism of bacterial-driven anastomotic leak. It was shown that strains of the commensal organism Enterococcus faecalis could cause anastomotic leakage by causing direct collagen degradation at the site of a freshly constructed anastomosis, and indirectly by bacterial-induced over activation of host matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9). A geographic differentiation in microbiota of Colorectal Cancer (CRC) was also shown by comparing tumor tissue and adjacent tissue of Colorectal Cancer patients from the US and Spain, elaborating yet another aspect of the importance of microbiome of cancer patients. Oropharyngeal microbiome profiling has been proven as a possible predictor for post esophagectomy pneumonia projecting on overall survival as well. A recent study by Rishindra et al from the university of Michigan shows a strong correlation of post esophagectomy anastomotic leaks and increased bacterial variance in preoperative oral and gastric flora. We hypothesize that a correlation exists between microbiome of esophageal cancer patients and post esophagectomy anastomotic leaks. According to former evidence microbiota are integrated into the tumor and therefore the microbial profile of the host (patient) may be represented by tumor microbiota. In this proposed study, we intend to characterize retrospectively the microbial signature of esophageal tumors and to study whether there is a correlation between differential microbial signature and risk of post esophagectomy anastomotic leaks.
A prospective, multi-centre, exploratory and observational one-arm study to evaluate preventive Endoluminal Vacuum Therapy(pEVT) to prevent anastomotic leakage after esophagectomy due to esophageal cancer. The main objective is to evaluate the potential protective effect of prophylactic preemptive endoluminal vacuum therapy on esophageal-gastric anastomosis dehiscence after esophagectomy.
The aim of this retrospective cohort-study is to assess the effects of AL and its severity divided according the ISREC-classification on the long-term oncological outcome.
