Filter by:85-year-old female patient presented with right upper quadrant pain of one day duration, diagnosed with acalculous cholecystitis, and intraoperatively diagnosed with gallbladder volvulus.
This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial included all patients who developed the manifestations of acute a cute sigmoid volvulus and referred to the Zagazig University Hospital Emergency Department between December 2020 and August 2022. The study was prospectively approved by Zagazig University Faculty of Medicine Institutional Review Board (Approval Number: 9989/23-10-2022), Patients with age of ≥60 years-old , with acute sigmoid volvulus not managed by rectal deflating tube, with no evidence of bowel ischemia, with ASA III & IV , high risk surgical patients , with comorbidities and on sepsis but not septic shock were included and eligible for randomization. We excluded patients who were with good general condition (ASAI&II), patients with age below 60 years , patients with bowel ischemia and patients managed by rectal deflating tube. Included eligible patients were simply randomized at a 1:1 ratio to "Endoscopic (SG)" or "Surgical Colostomy Group (EG)" via the drawing of sealed envelopes containing computer-generated random numbers prepared by a third party before the start of the intervention.
Digestive malrotation is an anatomical anomaly of the positionning of the mesenteric vessels and the digestive tract that can lead in some form to a dangerous neonatal complication: intestinal volvulus. This requires emergency surgery with a risk of digestive resection. Visualizing during pregnancy the normal or abnormal anatomical positionning of the mesenteric vessels could make it possible to diagnose this malrotation and prevent the occurrence of this complication. The aim of the study is to study the neonatal outcome of fetus confirm to have an abnormal positionning of mesenteric vessels
Sigmoid resection can be performed using conventional and laparoscopic methods. There are few publications in the literature reporting specimen removal from the natural hole in patients with a diagnosis of sigmoid volvulus. Here, the investigators aimed to present the literature that transanal specimen removal is a technically feasible method after laparoscopic surgery in patients with sigmoid volvulus.
Isolated hypoganglionosis is rare and constitutes 3-5% of all congenital neurological bowel diseases. Since hypoganglionosis is associated with symptoms such as chronic constipation or pseudo-obstruction, it can be confused with Hirschprung's disease and it is important to make a differential diagnosis before treatment. Our aim in this study; In addition to sharing the rarely isolated hypoganglionosis and sigmoid volvulus in a 45-year-old male patient with mental retardation, the investigators present a systematic comprehensive review of hypoganglionosis.
Sigmoid volvulus is frequently seen in male patients over 60 years old. In the sigmoid volvulus <60 age groups, the male/female ratio is close to each other. If sigmoid volvulus develops in <60 age groups, it is more likely to be another underlying organic pathology.
Objective: The small bowel volvulus is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction which may occur in utero and whose prenatal diagnosis is difficult.Sonographic signs are mainly indirect and non specific.The aim of this study is to present a retrospective analysis of prenatal sonographicfindings in fetal segmental midgut volvulus.Thanks to this series the investigators could highlight the more specifics signs of the volvulus included a new pattern.
The aim of this study was to assess the value of an unusual relative position of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and vein (SMV) to screen intestinal malrotation with a higher risk of volvulus. First, feasibility study was done to prove the reproducibility of ultrasound in diagnosis of anormal mesenteric vessels position. A systematic screening of the mesenteric vessels position was performed at each pregnancy required ultrasound. When the fœtus had an unusual position of the mesenteric vessels, an MRI was suggested between 30 and 35 GA and the couple met the pediatric surgery team. Few days after birth, an abdominal ultrasound was achieved as well as a barium enema and upper gastrointestinal. If there were a hight probability of malrotation with a higher risk of volvulus, a prophylactic surgery was proposed. The children were flollowed up during 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to obtain a better understanding of the best management of left-sided colonic emergencies.
The proposed study is a post marketing, observational, retrospective data collection intended to gather and record data on patients treated with the ColonRing™ device in routine clinical practice at a single center. The data will assist in further evaluating the performance of the ColonRing™ device in regards to the creation of a colorectal anastomosis. Hypothesis:The performance of the ColonRing™, determined by the rate of complications, will be within the acceptable range reported in the literature for alternative treatment modalities.
