  • Thoracoscopic Truncal Vagotomy Versus Surgical Revision of the Gastrojejunal Anastomosis for Recalcitrant Marginal Ulcers
    Surgical Endoscopy (2019) 33:607–611 and Other Interventional Techniques https://doi.org/10.1007/s00464-018-6386-7 2018 SAGES ORAL DYNAMIC Thoracoscopic truncal vagotomy versus surgical revision of the gastrojejunal anastomosis for recalcitrant marginal ulcers Alicia Bonanno1 · Brandon Tieu2 · Elizabeth Dewey1 · Farah Husain3 Received: 1 May 2018 / Accepted: 10 August 2018 / Published online: 21 August 2018 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Introduction Marginal ulcer is a common complication following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass with incidence rates between 1 and 16%. Most marginal ulcers resolve with medical management and lifestyle changes, but in the rare case of a non-healing marginal ulcer there are few treatment options. Revision of the gastrojejunal (GJ) anastomosis carries significant morbidity with complication rates ranging from 10 to 50%. Thoracoscopic truncal vagotomy (TTV) may be a safer alternative with decreased operative times. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TTV in comparison to GJ revision for treatment of recalcitrant marginal ulcers. Methods A retrospective chart review of patients who required surgical intervention for non-healing marginal ulcers was performed from 1 September 2012 to 1 September 2017. All underwent medical therapy along with lifestyle changes prior to intervention and had preoperative EGD that demonstrated a recalcitrant marginal ulcer. Revision of the GJ anastomosis or TTV was performed. Data collected included operative time, ulcer recurrence, morbidity rate, and mortality rate. Results Twenty patients were identified who underwent either GJ revision (n = 13) or TTV (n = 7). There were no 30-day mortalities in either group.

  • An Unusual Presentation of Spigelian Hernia Incarceration After Colonoscopy
    Open Access Case Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.3317 An Unusual Presentation of Spigelian Hernia Incarceration after Colonoscopy Vincent M. Pronesti 1 , Clara Antoury 2 , Ricardo Mitre 2 1. Department of Internal Medicine, Allegheny Health Network, Pittsburgh, USA 2. Department of Gastroenterology, Allegheny Health Network, Pittsburgh, USA Corresponding author: Vincent M. Pronesti, [email protected] Abstract Spigelian hernias are uncommon and predominantly affect the abdominal wall. The incidence of Spigelian hernias after colonoscopy is even rarer with only one case outlined in the surgical literature. This is the case of a 66-year-old man who underwent routine colonoscopy and presented to the hospital with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). A computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a Spigelian hernia in the location of a prior left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement. This required surgical resection and resulted in a complicated post-operative course. This case offers a unique perspective on a rare colonoscopic complication not well represented in the literature. It offers the learning point of remaining vigilant for a rare, but potentially deadly, colonoscopic outcome. This case also illustrates the decision-making heuristic of availability bias. Categories: Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology Keywords: spigelian hernia, colonoscopy, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (sirs), bowel incarceration, colonic resection, left ventricular assist device Introduction Clinicians must be aware of potential rare complications after colonoscopy. This is particularly relevant because every patient is advised to get a screening colonoscopy at age 50, making this an exceedingly common procedure. Spigelian hernias are rare and comprise approximately 0.12% of hernias of the abdominal wall [1].

Basic Principles • Office-based procedure • Adapted from gynecologic colposcopy. • Validated for anal canal. • Similar terminology and descriptors. may be unfamiliar to non-gyn providers. • Comparable to vaginal and vulvar colposcopy. • Clinicians familiar with cervical colposcopy may be surprised by the difficult transition. Anal SCJ & AnTZ • Original vs. current SCJ less relevant. • TZ features less common, therefore more difficult to appreciate. • SCJ more subtle, difficult to see in entirety requires more manipulation & acetic acid. • Larger area of metaplastic changes overlying columnar epithelium compared to endocervix. • Most lesions found in the AnTZ. Atypical Metaplasia • Atypical metaplasia may indicate the presence of HSIL. • Radiate over distal rectum from SCJ. • Thin, may wipe off. • Features to look for indicating potential lesions: • Atypical clustered glands (ACG) • Lacy metaplastic borders (LM) • Epithelial Honeycombing (EH) Lugol’s. Staining • More utility in anus compared to cervix. • Adjunctive to help define borders, distinguish between possible LSIL/HSIL. • Most HSIL will be Lugol’s negative • LSIL may be Lugol’s partial or negative • Applied focally with small cotton swabs to better define an acetowhite lesion. •NOT a short cut to determine presence or absence of lesions, acetic acid is used first and is applied frequently. Anal vs. Cervical Characteristics • Punctation & Mosaic rarely “fine” mostly “coarse”. • Mosaic pattern mostly associated with HSIL. • Atypical vessels may be HSIL or cancer • Epithelial honeycombing & lacy metaplasia unique anal descriptors.

  • Chapter 1 History of Laparoscopic Surgery
    Chapter 1 History of Laparoscopic Surgery Kiyokazu Nakajima, Jeffrey W. Milsom, and Bartholomäus Böhm Although laparoscopic surgery has transformed surgery only in the past two decades, its evolution is only the natural byproduct of the medical doctor’s curiosity to directly visualize and treat surgical dis- eases. The earliest known attempts to look inside the living human body date from 460 to 375 BC, from the Kos school of medicine led by Hippocrates in Greece.1,2 They described a rectal examination using a speculum remarkably similar to the instruments we use today. Similar specula were discovered in the ruins of Pompeii (70 AD) that were used to examine the vagina, the cervix, and the rectum, and obtain an inside view of the nose and ear.1 The Babylonian Talmud written in 500 AD described a lead siphon, named “Siphophert,” with a mouthpiece, which was bent inward and held a mechul (wooden drain).1,3 The apparatus was introduced into the vagina and was used to differentiate between vaginal and uterine bleeding. During these early years ambient light was used. The term “endoscopein” is attributed to Avicenna (Ibn Sina, 980–1037 AD) of Persia, although an Arabian physician, Albulassim (912–1013 AD), who placed a mirror in front of the exposed vagina, was the fi rst to use refl ected light as a source of illumination for an endoscopic examination. Giulio Caesare Aranzi in Venice (1530–1589) developed the fi rst endoscopic light in 1587. He used the Benedictine monk Don Panuce’s principle of the “camera obscura” for medical purposes – the
