Meeting: SAGES 2008

Background: Minimally-invasive gastric fundoplication represents an important therapeutic option in patients with refractory reflux and symptomatic hiatal hernias. Preservation of esophageal and gastric function is a hallmark principle in ensuring optimal surgical outcomes. In this study, we evaluate the impact of fundoplication on esophageal transit and gastric emptying scintigraphy studies, and relate these functional findings […]

This is Video is about a 32 year old male with a relatively short history of Crohn’s disease manifested by an ileo-psoas abscess, partial intestinal obstruction, and an undiagnosed ileo-transverse colon fistula. The technical aspects of performing an ileocolic resection in complicated Crohn’s is demonstrated, including intracorporeal division of the fistula and drainage of the […]

Narrow-band imaging is one of the latest technological achievements of the digital endoscopy. The technique is using interference filter to light surfaces in narrow bands of red, green, and blue colour that visualizes the differences in mucosa colouring and enhances contrast between the mucosa surface and submucosa vascular network. The NBI makes easier differentiating between […]

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has become the mainstay for treatment of gallbladder disease. Although biliary injuries are well described in LC, these are mainly associated with common bile duct injuries. There are scant reports related to complications involving the accessory ducts of Luschka (ADL). Case presentations: We present three patients that presented with persistent abdominal […]

The patients after colorectal surgery undergo complex rehabilitation postoperatively. A standard model of the postoperative rehabilitation covered complete mobilization of the patient on the second postoperative day and oral feeding 4 – 5 days after surgery. With this model mean time of postoperative hospitalization ranged between 6 – 10 days and the risk of postoperative […]

Background: The presence of hiatal hernia has been considered a contraindication for LAGB, since more complications such as band slippage (BS) were advocated. Few data have been reported on simultaneous LAGB and HHR.Methods: Between 11/04 and 7/05 432 patients underwent LAGB. Patients with less than 3 months f/u were excluded (total group 417). Patients were […]

Introduction: Large endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of superficial esophageal cancers often requires subsequent of balloon dilation operations to prevent post-operative esophageal constriction. We therefore have previously developed a novel method to transplant oral mucosal epithelial cell sheets using cell sheet engineering to promote wound healing after ESD (Gut, 1704-1720, 2006). Although we have demonstrated the […]

NOTES has been touted as the next step in minimally invasive surgery. As such, most of the effort to perform NOTES has been focused on reproducing surgical procedures in a manner similar to how they are accomplished laparoscopically. It seems, however, that a potential advantage for NOTES is to allow surgeons to perform operations in […]
