Data were gathered retrospectively from medical records. Overall there was no significant association between colonic adenomas and previous cholecystectomy. When women are considered separately, however, eight cases and no controls had undergone cholecystectomy (odds ratiooolower 95% confidence limits 1*7, p>001). No association between previous cholecystectomy and large bowel adenomas was found in men. Four of nine (44-4%) women with right sided colonic adenomas had undergone previous cholecystectomy compared with only three of 23 (13%) women with left sided adenomas.

  • Bariatric Surgery Did Not Increase the Risk of Gallstone Disease in Obese Patients: a Comprehensive Cohort Study
    Obesity Surgery (2019) 29:464–473 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11695-018-3532-1 ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTIONS Bariatric Surgery Did Not Increase the Risk of Gallstone Disease in Obese Patients: a Comprehensive Cohort Study Jian-Han Chen1,2,3 & Ming-Shian Tsai1,2,3 & Chung-Yen Chen1,2,3 & Hui-Ming Lee 3,4 & Chi-Fu Cheng5,6 & Yu-Ting Chiu5,6 & Wen-Yao Yin5,6,7 & Cheng-Hung Lee5,6 Published online: 11 November 2018 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of bariatric surgery on gallstone disease in obese patients. Materials and Methods This large cohort retrospective study was conducted based on the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. All patients 18–55 years of age with a diagnosis code for obesity (ICD-9-CM codes 278.00–278.02 or 278.1) between 2003 and 2010 were included. Patients with a history of gallstone disease and hepatic malignancies were excluded. The patients were divided into non-surgical and bariatric surgery groups. Obesity surgery was defined by ICD-9-OP codes. We also enrolled healthy civilians as the general population. The primary end point was defined as re-hospitalization with a diagnosis of gallstone disease after the index hospitalization. All patients were followed until the end of 2013, a biliary complication occurred, or death. Results Two thousand three hundred seventeen patients in the bariatric surgery group, 2331 patients in the non-surgical group, and 8162 patients in the general population were included. Compared to the non-surgery group (2.79%), bariatric surgery (2.89%) did not elevate the risk of subsequent biliary events (HR = 1.075, p = 0.679).

  • Post-Whipple: a Practical Approach to Nutrition Management
    NINFLAMMATORYUTRITION ISSUES BOWEL IN GASTROENTEROLO DISEASE: A PRACTICALGY, SERIES APPROACH, #108 SERIES #73 Carol Rees Parrish, M.S., R.D., Series Editor Post-Whipple: A Practical Approach to Nutrition Management Nora Decher Amy Berry The classic pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), also known as the Kausch-Whipple, and the pylorus- preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD) are most commonly performed for treatment of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis. This highly complex surgery disrupts the coordination of tightly orchestrated digestive processes. This, in combination with a diseased gland, sets the patient up for nutritional complications such as altered motility (gastroparesis and dumping), pancreatic insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, nutritional deficiencies and bacterial overgrowth. Close monitoring and attention to these issues will help the clinician optimize nutritional status and help prevent potentially devastating complications. 63-year-old female, D.D., presented to the copper, zinc, selenium, and potentially thiamine University of Virginia Health System (UVAHS) (thiamine was repleted before serum levels were Awith weight loss and biliary obstruction.

  • Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal (Cholecystectomy) Patient Information from SAGES
    SAGES Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons http://www.sages.org Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal (Cholecystectomy) Patient Information from SAGES Gallbladder removal is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures. Gallbladder removal surgery is usually performed with minimally invasive techniques and the medical name for this procedure is "Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy". What is the Gallbladder? The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ that rests beneath the right side of the liver. Its main purpose is to collect and concentrate a digestive liquid (bile) produced by the liver. Bile is released from the gallbladder after eating, aiding digestion. Bile travels through narrow tubular channels (bile ducts) into the small intestine. Removal of the gallbladder is not associated with any impairment of digestion in most people. What Causes Gallbladder Problems? Gallbladder problems are usually caused by the presence of gallstones which are usually small and hard, consisting primarily of cholesterol and bile salts that form in the gallbladder or in the bile duct. It is uncertain why some people form gallstones but risk factors include being female, prior pregnancy, age over 40 years and being overweight. Gallstones are also more common as you get older and some people may have a family history of gallstones. There is no known means to prevent gallstones. These stones may block the flow of bile out of the gallbladder, causing it to swell and resulting in sharp abdominal pain, vomiting, indigestion and, occasionally, fever. If the gallstone blocks the common bile duct, jaundice (a yellowing of the skin) can occur. How are These Problems Found and Treated? Ultrasound is most commonly used to find gallstones.

Materials and Methods: Cases of patients with a CIED and who underwent LC between January 2012 and December 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. The demographic data and the clinical, and perioperative results of the patients were analyzed. Results: A total of 467 patients underwent LC at Kartal Koşuyolu Higher Specialty Training and Research Hospital’s Gastroenterology Clinic between January 2012 and December 2016. Eight (0.017%) patients had a CIED. One (12.5%) of these patients was male, and 7 (87.5%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 53.2 years (range: 28–82 years).

A 65-year-old woman with a long surgical history was referred to our hospital’s Colorectal Unit for ileostomy management. The patient retained an ileostomy for almost a decade after a series of complicated operations she had undergone, which had several side effects such as electrolyte imbalances, high output, weight loss, and a parastomal hernia. Our hospital’s colorectal surgeon proposed to replace the ileostomy with a permanent sigmoidostomy and asked for an imaging evaluation of the parastomal hernia content before the surgery. A computed tomography of the abdomen was performed using our Computed Tomography Department’s 64-detector row CT scanner after oral administration of contrast media, without intravenous contrast media injection due to allergy.

On the first postoperative day, she complained of acute pain in the right upper quadrant. She was then reoperated by laparoscopy. At reintervention, a massive volume of bile was found. The source of leakage was not clear, and abdominal cav- ity was drained. Drain was removed after 3 weeks, when drainage stopped. She then had several crises of cholangitis. ERCP disclosed integrity of main bile duct and was considered normal at the time. Later review showed that right hepatic duct was not contrasted. She maintained with elevated liver enzymes. CT scan showed bile collection in the subhepatic area.
