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.

  • 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.

  • Optimal Iron Replacement for Colorectal Cancer-Induced Anaemia Roderick J
    The Open Colorectal Cancer Journal, 2010, 3, 27-31 27 Open Access Optimal Iron Replacement for Colorectal Cancer-Induced Anaemia Roderick J. Alexander*, Alison Alexander, Sue Surgenor, Elizabeth J. Williams and Guy F. Nash Poole General Hospital, Longfleet Rd, Poole, Dorset BH15 2JB, UK Abstract: Introduction: Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is commonly a result of colorectal cancer. Higher preoperative haemoglobin (Hb) is associated with an improved post-operative survival. The endpoint of normalising patients Hb is to reduce the need for perioperative blood transfusion which has oncological, safety and economic benefits. Methods: This study aims to compare the overall effect and cost between oral iron and two forms of parenteral iron, in raising the Hb of 53 consecutive colorectal cancer patients with IDA. The pre- and post-treatment Hb were measuring over time for oral and two formulations of parenteral iron (CosmoFer® and Venofer®), as were the need for supplemental pre-operative blood transfusions. The Total Hb rise and Hb rise/day were calculated as was the overall cost (including blood transfusions) in each of the three iron supplementation groups. Results: Both total Hb rise and Hb rise/day were significantly higher in the Venofer® (p=0.048, p=0.002) and CosmoFer® groups (p=0.034 & p=0.001) over oral iron. The oral iron group required significantly more blood than the Venofer® (p=0.04) and CosmoFer® groups (p=0.01). Although there was a trend for oral iron to cost more than parenteral, this did not reach significance. Conclusions: This study suggests that the end point of transfusion reduction is possible by the increased Hb rise rate of Venofer® or CosmoFer®.

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).

  • Incidence and Risk Factors of Portomesenteric Venous Thrombosis
    Manigrasso et al. World Journal of Surgical Oncology (2019) 17:195 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12957-019-1739-9 RESEARCH Open Access Incidence and risk factors of portomesenteric venous thrombosis after colorectal surgery for cancer in the elderly population Michele Manigrasso1, Marco Milone1,2*, Nunzio Velotti3, Sara Vertaldi1, Pietro Schettino1, Mario Musella3, Giovanni Aprea1, Nicola Gennarelli1, Francesco Maione1, Giovanni Sarnelli1, Pietro Venetucci3, Giovanni Domenico De Palma1 and Francesco Milone3 Abstract Background: Although it is known that portomesenteric venous thrombosis (PMVT) is associated with total colectomy and proctocolectomy in young patients with inflammatory bowel disease, little is known about incidence and risk factors of PMVT among the elderly population undergoing colorectal surgery for cancer. Methods: Data of elderly patients (> 70 years) undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer were retrospectively registered. The occurrence of PMVT was correlated with the patients’ characteristics and operative variables. Data collected included age, sex, obesity, ASA score, tumor degree, type of surgical resection, surgical approach (laparoscopic or open), and duration of surgery (from skin incision to the application of dressings). Results: A total of 137 patients > 70 years who underwent surgery for colorectal cancer and developed an acute intraabdominal process with suggestive symptoms, needing a CT scan, were included. Three of these patients (2.1%) had portomesenteric venous thrombosis during the study period, which was proved with CT scan. There were no significant patients’ characteristics or operative variables between patients with or without the occurrence of PMVT after surgery. Of interest, only operative time was significantly higher in patients with PMVT after surgery (256 ± 40 vs 140 ± 41, p < 0.001).
