Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the outcomes between two options for the management of malignant gastric outlet obstruction.
The aim of this observational study is to compare the outcomes of three different procedures performed for the management of malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction due to Pancreatic Cancer. Patients who undergo: - Surgical gastroenterostomy - Endoscopic placement of a self-expanding metallic stent - EUS-guided gastroenterostomy in accordance with standard clinical practice, will be enrolled to evaluate potential differences between the procedures in terms of clinical success, eating experience, chemotherapy tolerance, and nutritional status during follow-up. Participants will be asked to complete a quality of life questionnaire at baseline and during follow-up; however, no additional procedures will be conducted as a result of participation in the study.
This study is intended to investigate whether roux-en-y bypass surgery is superior to conventional loop gastrojejunostomy for Malignant gastric outlet obstruction in terms of tolerance to solid food intake. We hypothesize that roux-en-y bypass will be associated with improved solid food intake in the first 30 days after surgery.
A prospective, multi-center, single-arm study for unresectable malignant gastric outlet obstruction with EUS-guided double-balloon-occluded gastrojejunostomy bypass (EPASS)
The primary objective of this open-label pilot study is to investigate whether an endoscopically placed lumen apposing metal stent is an effective alternative to surgery in patients that have a clear indication for reversal of their gastric bypass.
Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) occurs commonly in malignancies involving the periampullary region (cancers originating in the head of the pancreas, duodenum, bile duct, or ampulla) or the distal stomach. GOO not only causes debilitating symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, inability to tolerate oral intake, and prevents adequate nutritional intake. Therefore, providing therapy for GOO is imperative to improve the quality of life, and nutritional status of these patients, as well as allow them to continue receiving their cancer treatment
Malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) results from the mechanical obstruction of the duodenum or distal stomach from an underlying cancer. The consequences of GOO are abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, inability to maintain an oral diet and weight loss, with associated poor quality of life and inability to continue with cancer therapy. The aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes between surgical gastrojejunostomy and EUS-guided gastrojejunostomy in patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction.
EUS-guided drainages has been largely widespread during the last 10 years, even thanks to the advent of dedicated devices, such as lumen apposing metal stents (LAMSs). Above all, EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CD) is to date considered a valuable option of treatment in case of distal malignant biliary obstruction in case of failure of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) due to the presence of a gastric or duodenal obstruction, unreachable papilla in case of altered anatomy, infiltrated papilla or failure of deep cannulation of the common bile duct. This modality of drainage demonstrated satisfying results, with high rate both of technical and clinical success with acceptable rate of adverse events. When the distal malignant biliary obstruction is associated to signs and symptoms of gastric outflow obstruction (GOO) due to the presence of a gastric or duodenal stenosis, a concomitant or subsequent palliation of the stenosis may be required. Recently, EUS-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GEA) has been introduced for the palliation of GOO, showing good results although technically challenging. To date, endoscopic treatment in case of GOO, enteral stenting and EUS-GEA are possible alternatives. However, available data demonstrated that EUS-GEA seems to be superior to enteral stenting in terms of rate of reinterventions during long-term follow-up, especially when life expectancy is superior to 6 months. However, data are lacking regarding which is the best strategy when GOO is associated to distal malignant biliary obstruction, especially when EUS-CD is performed. This is an hot topic, as it has been supposed that EUS-CD has higher rate of adverse events, especially food impaction, when a duodenal stenosis is present. The aim of our study, therefore, is to perform a retrospective multicenter study collecting all consecutive patients affect by distal malignant biliary obstruction drained using EUS-CD, with associated GOO treated with concomitant or subsequent duodenal stenting or EUS-GEA, in order to evaluate clinical efficacy, long term outcomes and severity of adverse events.
Pyloric stenosis is a current condition in pediatric surgery. The medical management prior to surgery consists of ionic correction. The nasogastric tube is commonly used to prevent gastric fluid inhalation before surgery, but there is no study on it benefits in this specific use. Other studies suggest that utilization of a gastric tube in pyloric stenosis may increase the duration of the medical treatment. The aim of the study is to evaluate the benefit of the nasogastric tube to prevent respiratory complications. This retrospective, monocentric and descriptive study include all patients hospitalized for pyloric stenosis in the university hospital in Amiens between 2014 and 2021. Patients with and without nasogastric tube prior to surgery are compared, regarding respiratory complications define as use of antibiotic, or oxygen therapy or infection in the lungs X-ray before surgery. The investigators analyze pre-operative data: vomiting, dehydration, time to ionic disorders correction and pain, and also notice the length of hospital stay. Data during hospitalization are analyzed and will be noticed the last medical contact represent by the post-operative consultation.
This registry aims to analyze long-term outcomes of therapeutic EUS (T-EUS) procedures, as well as to describe clinical and technical variables potentially predicting clinical success or adverse events, for a better selection of ideal candidates.
