  • Lenox Hill Hospital Department of Surgery Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery Goals and Objectives
    Lenox Hill Hospital Department of Surgery Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery Goals and Objectives Medical Knowledge and Patient Care: Residents must demonstrate knowledge and application of the pathophysiology and epidemiology of the diseases listed below for this rotation, with the pertinent clinical and laboratory findings, differential diagnosis and therapeutic options including preventive measures, and procedural knowledge. They must show that they are able to gather accurate and relevant information using medical interviewing, physical examination, appropriate diagnostic workup, and use of information technology. They must be able to synthesize and apply information in the clinical setting to make informed recommendations about preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic options, based on clinical judgement, scientific evidence, and patient preferences. They should be able to prescribe, perform, and interpret surgical procedures listed below for this rotation. All residents are expected to finish the laparoscopy curriculum. Upon completion of the curriculum, the resident will be able to: • Describe the instruments and equipment used in laparoscopic surgery • Identify important intraoperative considerations such as anesthesia and patient positioning • Discuss the physiology of the pneumoperitoneum • Outline the process of access, trocar placement and abdominal examination • Demonstrate the technique of laparoscopic skills, including cutting, dissection and suturing • Provide an overview of biopsy techniques and hemostasis • Summarize the process of exiting the abdomen and the requirements for postoperative care The curriculum consists of two major components: 1. Didactic component: This includes two comprehensive, CD-ROM based educational modules- Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery (FLS) and Laparoscopy 101. These self-study guides cover a wide range of topics including techniques for safe entry into the peritoneal cavity, physiological changes associated with pneumoperitoneum, appropriate use of energy sources and postoperative complications and care.

    Short Paper Session 6.2 11:30 - 13:00 Thursday, 6th May, 2021 Presentation type Short Paper Presentations Dimitris Damaskos, Brian Dobbins TP6.2.1 Does the use of Negative Pressure Wound Dressings decrease superficial Surgical Site Infections in the Emergency Laparotomy? Eleanor Smith1,2, Hannah Merriman1, Safia Haidar1, Grace Knudsen1, Victoria Kinkaid1, Sarah Burton1 1Frimley Park Hospital. 2University Hospital Lewisham Abstract AIMS: Surgical site infection (SSI) can be a significant cause of morbidity in the emergency laparotomy patient. Previous research into the role of negative pressure wound dressings to improve the rate of SSI culminated with NICE guidelines in 2019 recommending the use of negative pressure wound dressings in people who would be considered high risk for developing an SSI. Based on this guideline, we changed our policy to recommend the use of PICO dressings for all emergency laparotomies in order to decrease our rate of SSI. Our aim of this study was to assess the success of this policy change. METHODS: In this closed-loop audit we analysed data from all laparotomy patients at Frimley Park Hospital over 12 months. We retrospectively analysed the data of the pre-intervention group between January – June 2019, and prospectively audited all laparotomy patients between July – December 2019. RESULTS: We found that there was no significant decrease in the rate of superficial SSI, from a pre intervention rate of 22.2% to a post intervention 24.1%. Similarly, we found no significant decrease in the rate of wound dehiscence, which increased from 13.8% to 17.7%. In further assessment we saw no significant difference in the rates of contamination, ASA grades, or closure techniques to account for these increased rates.

Chagas’ disease (CD) is highly prevalent in South America. Brazilian surgeons and gastroenter- ologists gained valuable experience in the treatment of CD esophagopathy (chagasic achalasia) due to the high number of cases treated. The authors reviewed the lessons learned with the treatment of achalasia by different centers experienced in the treatment of Chagas’ disease. Preoperative evaluation, endoscopic treatment (forceful dilatation and botulinum toxin injection), Heller’s myotomy, esophagectomy, conservative techniques other than myotomy, and reoperations are discussed in the light of personal experiences and review of International and Brazilian literature. Aspects not frequently adopted by North American and European surgeons are emphasized.

Correspondence to: David S. Demos, MD. Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center, 2901 W. Kinnickinnic River Pkwy, Professional Office Bldg 1, Suite 507, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Definitive therapy for achalasia remains an esophageal myotomy across the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). Approaches to myotomy include transthoracic and transabdominal techniques, both open and minimally invasive. Advantages of a transabdominal approach include full access to the stomach below the GEJ for complete myotomy, the angle of approach to the myotomy, and fundoplication. The use of the Da Vinci Xi surgical robot (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) adds some distinct advantages to the laparoscopic approach. These include: (I) a steady camera with high-definition, three-dimensional view of the circumferential muscle fibers, (II) tremor reduction through the robotic console, (III) wristed instruments providing flexibility in angle of approach and dexterity, and (IV) bi-polar energy use for more delicate, precise fiber division without excessive thermal spread. The advantage of bi-polar energy delivery over monopolar cautery cannot be overstated. We describe our approach to DaVinci Xi Robot-assisted laparoscopic modified heller myotomy with anterior partial fundoplication.

Duration of Project: 12 months SUMMARY: Introduction: Achalasia is an acquired, progressive esophageal motility disorder of failed esophagogastric junction (EGJ) relaxation and failed peristalsis of the esophageal body that is surgically treatable with myotomy. Per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive technique first performed clinically in 2008 which allows a completely endoscopic myotomy that can be tailored specifically to each patient. This technique has now been utilized in hundreds of patients worldwide, and in over 100 patients at our center. However, long term outcomes data for patients treated with POEM are lacking given its recent development. Studies thus far have shown safety and efficacy of the procedure, but have also identified a considerable rate of postoperative GERD, which is not reliably symptomatic and may go undiagnosed without routine scheduled testing. We mandate periodic objective testing for postoperative POEM patients for this reason. Impedance planimetry measurement with a trans-orally inserted functional lumen-imaging probe (EndoFLIP) technology allows effective, on the spot distensibility measurement of the esophageal lumen during endoscopy.
