Correspondence to: Emre Gündoğdu, MD, FEBS. Assistant Professor of Surgery, Department of Surgery, Medical School, Istinye University, Istanbul, Turkey. Email: [email protected]; [email protected]. Abstract: Gastric banding is based on the principle of forming a small volume pouch near the stomach by wrapping the fundus with various synthetic grafts. The main purpose is to limit oral intake. Due to the fact that it is a reversible surgery, ease of application and early results, the adjustable gastric band (AGB) operation has become common practice for the last 20 years. Many studies have shown that the effectiveness of LAGB has comparable results with other procedures in providing weight loss. Early studies have shown that short term complications after LAGB are particularly low when compared to the other complicated procedures. Even compared to RYGB and LSG, short-term results of LAGB have been shown to be significantly superior. However, as long-term results began to emerge, such as failure in weight loss, increased weight regain and long-term complication rates, interest in the procedure disappeared. The rate of revisional operations after LAGB is rapidly increasing today and many surgeons prefer to convert it to another bariatric procedure, such as RYGB or LSG, for revision surgery in patients with band removed after LAGB.

In the early stages, a distal ileostomy typically discharges 1000–2000 ml/day, but can increase to Richard N Saunders 5000–6000 ml/day in exceptional circumstances, leading to dehy- David Hemingway dration and electrolyte abnormalities. Occasionally, this is driven by proximal disease (e.g. Crohn’s disease), but a cause is not identified in many cases. The output can usually be reduced to 250–750 ml/day with supportive care and antidiarrhoeal agents. In the longer term, the systemic effects of an ileostomy include an increased incidence of renal tract calculi (60% composed of uric acid). Some studies also suggest a threefold increase in the incidence of gallstones, but this remains controversial. Abstract Intestinal stomas are frequently necessary after abdominal surgery.

    cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Ileostomy Guide Ileostomy surgery is done for many different diseases and problems. Some conditions that can lead to ileostomy surgery include ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, familial polyposis, and cancer. Sometimes an ileostomy is only needed for a short time (temporary), or it may be needed for the rest of a person's life (permanent). For the thousands of people who have serious digestive diseases, an ileostomy can be the start of a new and healthier life. If you’ve had a chronic (long-term) problem or a life- threatening disease like cancer, you can look forward to feeling better after you recover from ileostomy surgery. You can also look forward to returning to most, if not all of the activities you enjoyed in the past. This guide will help you better understand ileostomy – what it is, why it’s needed, how it affects the normal digestive system1, and what changes it brings to a person’s life. ● What Is an Ileostomy? ● Types of Ileostomies and Pouching Systems ● Caring for an Ileostomy What Is an Ileostomy? An ileostomy is an opening in the belly (abdominal wall) that’s made during surgery. It's usually needed because a problem is causing the ileum to not work properly, or a disease is affecting that part of the colon and it needs to be removed. The end of the ileum (the lowest part of the small intestine) is brought through this opening to form a 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 stoma, usually on the lower right side of the abdomen.

  • Continent Urinary Reservoirs and Bladder Substitutes.Pdf
    ������������������ ��������������� ������������������� �������������������� ���������������� ��������������������� Continent Cutaneous Urinary Reservoirs and Bladder Substitutes Anatomy The bladder is an organ in the pelvis that collects, stores and expels urine. Urine is produced by the kidneys and travels down two tube-like structures called the ureters. The ureters connect the kidneys to the bladder. Urine leaves the bladder through another tube-like structure called the urethra. (Figure 1) Removal of the bladder (cystectomy) may be necessary in some people with bladder cancer, congenital disor- ders of the urinary tract, and in some people who have suffered surgical, traumatic or neurologic damage to the bladder. In these situations, another method of col- lecting and excreting urine must be found. The most common and easiest method for urinary diversion is to use a short piece of intestine as the connection between the ureters and the outside of the body (ileal or colon conduit). This type of diversion is easy for the patient to manage and has a low rate of complication. However, an ostomy bag must be worn at all times to collect urine. Newer surgical techniques are available which do not require the patient to wear an ostomy bag. These newer proce- dures involve creation of a continent urinary reser- voir that collects and stores urine. What is a Continent Urinary Reservoir and How is it Made? A continent urinary reser- voir is an internal “pouch” made from segments of the intestine. Urinary reservoirs can be made from small intestine alone, large intestine alone or from a combination of the above. (Figure 2) The bowel segments selected for use are disconnected from the remainder of the intestinal tract to avoid mixing the gastrointestinal contents (feces) with urine.

  • Abdominoperineal Excision of the Rectum Information
    Abdominoperineal excision of the rectum Information Introduction Your consultant has recommended an abdominoperineal resection of the rectum because you require the removal of your rectum. A member of staff will explain everything in this leaflet to you, but if you have any questions, please ask us. The rectum (see Figure 1) is the storage organ at the end of the bowel and the anal canal is the exit from the bowel (the back passage). for patients Figure 1: the rectum and anal canal Figure 2: a colostomy What is an abdominoperineal excision of the rectum? Abdominoperineal excision of the rectum (often referred to as an AP or APER) is an operation to remove the rectum and anal canal. This will close the anus completely and permanently. A colostomy (stoma) is formed to enable you to empty your bowels (see Figure 2). The colostomy is the bowel, which is brought through a small opening on your abdomen. The faeces are collected into a colostomy appliance, which will adhere to your abdominal wall. The operation is performed by making several small keyhole cuts or a big abdominal incision (cut). There is also an incision around the anus, so that after the operation you will have several small scars or a long scar and a stoma on your abdomen and a scar between your buttocks where the anus has been closed. You will meet a stoma specialist nurse before your operation to discuss living with a colostomy. This can either be arranged at St Mark’s Hospital or you may like to meet your local stoma care nurse who will be helping you once you go home from hospital.
