  • Robotic Surgery for the Treatment of Chronic Pancreatitis. Pain Control, Narcotic Use Reduction and Re-Intervention Rate. Ten Years Follow-Up Retrospective Study

Pain Control, Narcotic Use Reduction and Re-Intervention Rate. Ten Years Follow-Up Retrospective Study Eduardo Fernandes*, Valentina Valle, Gabriela Aguiluz Cornejo, Roberto Bustos, Roberto Mangano, Pier Cristoforo Giulianotti University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine Chicago, IL United States ABSTRACT Introduction: Surgical treatment of chronic pancreatitis is reserved to patients with intractable pain, pancreatic duct obstruction or suspicion of malignancy. Robotic surgery in this context has proven to be a safe and feasible. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of robotic assisted surgery in the context of chronic pancreatitis with regards to pain control, narcotic usage and need for re-intervention. Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected divisional database at the University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System was carried out. The primary endpoint was: 1) Evaluation of pre and post-operative pain and narcotic usage. The secondary endpoints were: 1) 10-year overall survival; and 2) ‘Event Free Survival’ (EFS). Results: 37 patients entered the study. The procedures performed were: pancreatic head resection (7), total pancreatectomy (1), hepatico-jejunostomy (6), longitudinal Roux-en-Y pancreato-jejunostomy (4), pancreato- gastrostomy (14) and thoracoscopic splanchnicectomy (7). The mean pre and post-operative pain scores were 6.5 and 4.5 respectively (p<0.05, paired Student t-test). Rates of narcotics use pre and post-surgery were 74% and 50% of patients respectively.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The pancreas was one of the last explored organs in the human body. The first surgical experiences were made before fully understanding the function of the gland. Surgical procedures remained less successful until the discovery of insulin, blood groups, and finally the possibility of blood donation. Throughout the centuries, the surgical approach went from radical resections to minimal resections or only drainage of the gland in comparison to an adequate resection combined with drainage procedures. Today, the well-known and standardized procedures are considered as safe due to the high experience of operating surgeons, the centering of pancreatic surgery in specialized centers, and optimized perioperative treatment. Although surgical procedures have become safer and more efficient than ever, the overall perioperative morbidity after pancreatic surgery remains high and management of postoperative complications stagnates. Current research focuses on the prevention of complications, optimizing the patient’s general condition preoperatively and finding the appropriate timing for surgical treatment.

  • Laparoscopic Lateral Pancreaticojejunostomy for Chronic Pancreatitis; a Single Operator Tertiary Center Experience from Western India
    Research Article Clinics in Surgery Published: 28 Jan, 2019 Laparoscopic Lateral Pancreaticojejunostomy for Chronic Pancreatitis; a Single Operator Tertiary Center Experience from Western India Rege SA*, Kulkarni GV, Surpam Shrinivas, Amiteshwar Singh and Chiranjeev R Department of General Surgery, King Edward Memorial Hospital, India Abstract Introduction: Lateral Pancreaticojejunostomy (LPJ), has its recognized applications in the decompressive management of Chronic Pancreatitis (CP), and is recommended in patients with concomitant pain, obstructed, dilated pancreatic duct. Performing this procedure laparoscopically is technically challenging. We describe our technique and report our series of 33 patients who underwent this procedure. Methods: Between March 2013 and June 2018, 33 patients (19 males, 14 females) hailing from 5 different states in India, with an established diagnosis of CP underwent laparoscopic LPJ by a single surgeon in a tertiary care center in Western India. The median age and pancreatic duct diameter on CT were 41.8 (22 to 54) years and 8.73 (7 to 10) mm, respectively. Results: Thirty two patients were included in the final analysis in which the procedure was completed laparoscopically while one surgery necessitated conversion to open, owing to hemorrhage from the gastroduodenal artery. Median operating time was 131.2 (104 to 163) minutes and intraoperative blood loss of approximately 100 mL. There were no peri-operative deaths and no mortality at the six month follow up. No peri-operative blood transfusion was required, and the median postoperative hospital stay was 5.25 (5 to 8) days. Two patients required readmission at 8 months for pain. Twenty four patients reported to be nearly pain free on follow up while remaining 8 patients were managed OPEN ACCESS with appropriate analgesia without further procedures.

  • Chronic Pancreatitis: Introduction
    Chronic Pancreatitis: Introduction Authors: Anthony N. Kalloo, MD; Lynn Norwitz, BS; Charles J. Yeo, MD Chronic pancreatitis is a relatively rare disorder occurring in about 20 per 100,000 population. The disease is progressive with persistent inflammation leading to damage and/or destruction of the pancreas . Endocrine and exocrine functional impairment results from the irreversible pancreatic injury. The pancreas is located deep in the retroperitoneal space of the upper part of the abdomen (Figure 1). It is almost completely covered by the stomach and duodenum . This elongated gland (12–20 cm in the adult) has a lobe-like structure. Variation in shape and exact body location is common. In most people, the larger part of the gland's head is located to the right of the spine or directly over the spinal column and extends to the spleen . The pancreas has both exocrine and endocrine functions. In its exocrine capacity, the acinar cells produce digestive juices, which are secreted into the intestine and are essential in the breakdown and metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. In its endocrine function capacity, the pancreas also produces insulin and glucagon , which are secreted into the blood to regulate glucose levels. Figure 1. Location of the pancreas in the body. What is Chronic Pancreatitis? Chronic pancreatitis is characterized by inflammatory changes of the pancreas involving some or all of the following: fibrosis, calcification, pancreatic ductal inflammation, and pancreatic stone formation (Figure 2). Although autopsies indicate that there is a 0.5–5% incidence of pancreatitis, the true prevalence is unknown. In recent years, there have been several attempts to classify chronic pancreatitis, but these have met with difficulty for several reasons.

TRAVEL DISTANCE IS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPROVED SURVIVAL IN HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA C Hester, N Rich, M Augustine, J Mansour, M Porembka, S Wang, H Zeh III, A Singal, A Yopp Presenter: Caitlin Hester MD | University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center Background: An association between travel distance and survival measures has been been demonstrated across gastrointestinal malignancies but thus far has not been examined in patients newly diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to determine the association of travel distance with time to treatment (TTT) and overall survival (OS) in patients newly diagnosed with HCC. Methods: Newly diagnosed HCC patients who received treatment were identified in the Texas Cancer Registry from 2004 to 2015. We compared system- and patient-level factors among patients who traveled short (<12.5 miles), intermediate (12.5-49.9 miles), and long (≥50 miles) travel distances for initial treatment. Anova and Chi-square analyses were used to compare clinicopathologic variables, and Kaplan-Meier with log rank and cox regression models were used to compare survival. Results: 4,329 patients were identified: 2,136 (49.3%) short, 1,380 (31.9%) intermediate, and 813 (18.9%) long distance patients. Patients who traveled intermediate and long distances were more likely to be Non- Hispanic White (59% for intermediate and 60% for long vs 33% for short, p<0.001) and a higher proportion of privately insured patients (29% for intermediate and 24% for long vs 16% for short,p<0.001).
