A COMPARISON OF SHORT-TERM OUTCOMES BETWEEN LAPAROSCOPIC AND OPEN EMERGENT REPAIR OF PERFORATED GASTRIC ULCERS

Daniel L Davenport, PhD1, Walker R Ueland, BSc2, Margaret Plymale, DNP3, Andrew C Bernard, MD3, John S Roth, MD3. 1University of Kentucky, Department of Surgery, 2University of Kentucky, College of Medicine, 3University of Kentucky, Division of General Surgery

Introduction: We sought to compare 30-day outcomes in patients undergoing emergent open and laparoscopic repair of perforated gastric ulcers in a recent, large, multicenter cohort.

Methods and Procedures: A retrospective review of the prospectively obtained data in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program public use files from 2010 through 2015. Cases were selected using ICD-9/10™ and CPT™ codes. Perioperative risks and 30-day outcomes were compared in unmatched and propensity matched groups using parametric or non-parametric statistical tests as appropriate. Significance was set at p < .05.

Results: A total of 3,486 procedures were identified, 265 (7.6%) laparoscopic, and 3221 (92.4%) open. Laparoscopic repairs increased from 4.2% of 2010 cases to 10.3% of 2015 cases (Figure, p < .001). Open repair patients had higher rates of numerous clinical factors indicating more acute presentation including ASA class, hypoalbuminemia, preoperative septic shock, renal failure and mechanical ventilation (all p < .01). The average duration of the operation was 19 minutes higher (p < .001) in the laparoscopic group.  Mortality (8.9% vs. 4.2%), median length of stay (7 vs. 5), transfusion rates, renal failure and respiratory outcomes were all worse in the unmatched open group (all p < .01).

The propensity matching resulted in 235 laparoscopic and 437 open cases of similar age, ASA class, preoperative SIRS/sepsis, hypoalbuminemia, and wound class. The matched groups had few patients with preoperative septic shock given it was rare in the laparoscopic group. Mortality did not differ between the matched groups (4.7% Lap. vs. 5.7% Open, p = .720), nor did most complication rates. Operative duration was 20 minutes longer in the laparoscopic group (p < .001). Median length of stay was 1 day longer in the open group (6 [5-9] vs. 5 [4-7], p < .001) which also had higher rates of prolonged ventilation (7.8% vs. 3.4%, p = .029). Return to the operating room and readmission within 30 days did not differ between the two matched groups.

Conclusions: We have shown in a contemporary, large multicenter cohort of patients that emergent laparoscopic repair of perforated gastric ulcer is increasingly being performed, is safe relative to open repair (in patients without preoperative septic shock), and confers a modest benefit in terms of length of stay and respiratory complications.

Respuesta de SAGES al Estudio NordICC sobre el beneficio de las colonoscopias de detección

SAGES desea aclarar los resultados del estudio NordICC y colocarlos en contexto de los esfuerzos de varias agencias nacionales para reducir el riesgo de cáncer colorrectal – la segunda causa de muerte por cáncer más frecuente en los Estados Unidos-, mediante la promoción de la detección y tratamiento oportuno de las lesiones.

SAGES Response to NordICC Study Regarding Benefit of Screening Colonoscopies

The NordICC Study recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine and widely reported on by media outlets has raised questions regarding the benefit of screening colonoscopy in lowering the risk of colorectal cancer and cancer-related deaths among otherwise healthy and symptom-free men and women aged 55 to 64. Provocative headlines and commentaries have […]
