The handlebar injuries are usually isolated and remain a major source of bicycle related morbidity. We present a case of severe liver laceration with left hepatic duct transection caused by handlebar trauma in a 13-year-old boy. Case presentation: An otherwise healthy 13-year-old Caucasian male patient was rushed to the hospital following a blunt abdominal trauma from a bicycle handlebar. An ultrasound finding of extensive free intraperitoneal fluid with accompanying features of hemodynamic instability necessitated a decision to perform an emergency exploratory laparotomy. Operative findings included massive haemoperitoneum, a deep laceration almost separating left and right liver lobes, and a near-complete interruption of the left hepatic duct. Interestingly, the vascular anatomy of the left liver lobe was preserved. Surgical haemostasis was successfully accomplished, and a duct-to-duct anastomosis of the ruptured left hepatic duct was performed. A T-tube biliary drainage was inserted, and intraoperative cholangiography showed no extraluminal spillage of contrast.

  • Most Common Robotic Bariatric Procedures: Review and Technical Aspects Pablo A
    Acquafresca et al. Ann Surg Innov Res (2015) 9:9 DOI 10.1186/s13022-015-0019-9 REVIEW Open Access Most common robotic bariatric procedures: review and technical aspects Pablo A. Acquafresca1, Mariano Palermo1*, Tomasz Rogula2, Guillermo E. Duza1 and Edgardo Serra1 Abstract Since its appear in the year 1997, when Drs. Cadiere and Himpens did the first robotic cholecystectomy in Brus- sels, not long after the first cholecystectomy, they performed the first robotic bariatric procedure. It is believed that robotically-assisted surgery’s most notable contributions are reflected in its ability to extend the benefits of minimally invasive surgery to procedures not routinely performed using minimal access techniques. We describe the 3 most common bariatric procedures done by robot. The main advantages of the robotic system applied to the gastric bypass appear to be better control of stoma size, avoidance of stapler costs, elimination of the potential for oro- pharyngeal and esophageal trauma, and a potential decrease in wound infection. While in the sleeve gastrectomy and adjustable gastric banding its utility is more debatable, giving a bigger advantage during surgery on patients with a very large BMI or revisional cases.

Abstract Introduction: Roundup® is a herbicide widely used in Japan in gardening and agriculture. When ingested, Roundup is highly toxic, but gastrointestinal decontamination, including gastric lavage, is not routinely performed after ingestion. Endoscopy may be useful in managing individuals with liquid herbicide poisoning, by identifying gastric residual contents, assessing mucosal damage and retrieving herbicide directly by aspiration. Case report: A 73 year old, 40 kg female with a history of depression was transported to our emergency room by ambulance 1 h after attempting suicide by ingesting 100 ml Roundup, which contains 48% glyphosate-potassium, and 52% surfactant and water.

  • Classification of Livertrauma
    HPB Surgery, 1996, Vol.9, pp.235-238 (C) 1996 OPA (Overseas Publishers Association) Reprints available directly from the publisher Amsterdam B.V. Published in The Netherlands Photocopying permitted by license only by Harwood Academic Publishers GmbH Printed in Malaysia Classification of Liver Trauma SANDRO B. RIZOLI, FREDERICK D. BRENNEMAN, SHERIF S. HANNA, and KAMYAR KAHNAMOUI Department of Surgery and the Trauma Program, Sunnybrook Health Science Centre, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (Received 30 June 1994) The classification of liver injuries is important for clinical practice, clinical research and quality assurance activities. The Organ Injury Scaling (OIS) Committee of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma proposed the OIS for liver trauma in 1989. The purpose of the present study was to apply this scale to a cohort of liver trauma patients managed at a single Canadian trauma centre from January 1987 to June 1992.170 study patients were identified and reviewed. The mean age was 30, with 69% male and a mean ISS of 33.90% had a blunt mechanism of injury. The 170 patients were categorized into the 60IS grades of liver injury. The number of units of blood transfused, the magnitude of the operative treatment required, the liver-related complications and the liver-related mortality correlated well with the OIS grade. The OIS grade was unable to predict the need for laparotomy or the length of stay in hospital. We conclude that the OIS is a useful, practical and important tool for the categorization of liver injuries, and it may prove to be the universally accepted classification scheme in liver trauma.

I visited 3 major Hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) centres in Seoul over the course of two weeks. This experience exceeded all my expectations. I planned this visit to focus on minimally- invasive HPB surgery. During this time, I witnessed a wide spectrum of HPB surgeries, including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted approaches. Seoul is indeed the ‘mecca’ of HPB surgery with the major HPB units in close vicinity to each other, making it convenient to visit each of these centres during the same fellowship. Further, I was able to coincide my fellowship with the Annual Congress of Korean Surgical Society, held annually in Seoul. My fellowship started at the Division of HPB Surgery and Liver Transplantation in Asan Medical Centre (AMC).
