Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted. Clinical data of 54 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic transrectal specimen extraction surgery between January 2019 and December 2023 at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Bayannur City Hospital, were collected. All patients underwent digestive tract reconstruction using hand-sewn end-to-end colonic or rectal anastomosis. Intraoperative and postoperative general conditions, pathological results, complications, and follow-up data were analyzed. Results: Among the 54 cases, 37 were male, and 17 were female. The cases included 26 sigmoid colon cancers, 27 high rectal cancers, and 1 descending colon cancer. All patients underwent totally laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer with transrectal specimen extraction. The average surgical duration was 187.87 ± 61.36 minutes, with 16 (14-19) minutes required for hand-sewn anastomosis. Intraoperative blood loss was 16 (10-200) mL, with no conversions to open surgery or blood transfusions. Postoperative outcomes included first flatus time of 1 (1-3) day, liquid diet resumption on 2 (2-3) days, postoperative Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score of 2 (2-3), and hospital stay duration of 8 (7-9) days. The total hospitalization cost was 41,011 (25,655-148,589) Chinese yuan, with an average cost of 42,558.81 ± 8,599.30 Chinese yuan after excluding three cases with complications. Pathological examination revealed all cases to be adenocarcinomas: 20 well-differentiated, 32 moderately differentiated, and 2 poorly differentiated. All resection margins were negative. An average of 16.85 ± 7.97 lymph nodes were dissected. Pathological staging included 18 stage I, 17 stage II, and 19 stage III cases. Postoperative complications included 2 cases of anastomotic leakage (3.7%), 1 case of anastomotic stricture (1.8%), and 1 case of pulmonary infection (1.8%). No unplanned readmissions or postoperative deaths occurred during the 30-day follow-up period. Conclusion: Hand-sewn anastomosis in totally laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer with transanal specimen extraction is safe and feasible.展开更多

Databases and references were searched for all randomizedcontrolled trials and comparative clinical studies that compared LS with HS esophagogastric anastomosis for esophageal cancer. The primary outcomes compared were anastomotic leak and stricture. Subgroup analyses were performed according to site of anastomosis.RESULTS: Fifteen studies were used, comprising 3203 patients(n = 2027 LS and 1176 HS). Primary outcome analysis revealed a significant decrease in anastomotic leakage(RR = 0.51, 95%CI: 0.41-0.65; P < 0.00001) a s s o c i a t e d w i t h L S a n a s t o m o s i s. A s i g n i f i c a n t l y reduced rate of anastomotic stricture associated with LS was also found(RR = 0.56, 95%CI: 0.49-0.64; P < 0.00001). A subgroup analysis according to the site of anastomosis revealed a significantly reduced rate of anastomotic stricture(P < 0.00001). Although there was no significant difference in the decrease in thoracic anastomotic leakage, there was a significant decrease in cervical anastomotic leakage associated with LS(P < 0.00001).CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis indicates that the LS technique contributes to a reduced rate of leakage and stricture compared with the HS method.展开更多

All data are registered prospectively in cooperation with the Institute of Quality Assurance in Surgery at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg.?Methods: Data are collected in an online data bank. Data collection began in 2005 for the results of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB). In addition to primary bariatric operations, data regarding the complications and the amelioration of comorbidities have been analyzed. Participation in the quality assurance study is required for all certified centers in Germany.?Results: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass is the most popular bariatric operation in Germany. There were 5115 operations performed from 2005 to 2010. A circular anastomosis was performed in 1587 patients, and a linear anastomosis was performed in 2734 patients. In 783 patients the hand-sewn technique was used. The leakage rate for the linear technique is 1.6%, and the leakage rate is 1.2% for circular anastomosis and 1.4% for hand-sewn technique. The overall postoperative complication rate was significantly higher using the circular technique than using the linear or hand-sewn approach.?Conclusion: RYGB is a popular procedure in Germany. The complication rate has decreased since 2005. A comparison of hand sewn versus linear and versus circular anastomosis indicated a higher complication rate in circular gastrojejunal junctions.展开更多

Four types of intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy using staplers or hand-sewn suturing were performed after LTG. Data on clinicopatholgoical characteristics, occurrence of complications, postoperative recovery, anastomotic time, and operation time among the surgical groups were obtained through medical records.RESULTS: The average operation time was 288.7 min, the average anastomotic time was 54.3 min, and the average estimated blood loss was 82.7 m L. There were no cases of conversion to open surgery. The first flatus was observed around 3.7 d, while the liquid diet was started, on average, from 4.9 d. The average postoperative hospital stay was 10.1 d. Postoperative complications occurred in 14 patients, nearly 17.3%.However, there were no cases of postoperative death.CONCLUSION: LTG performed with intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy using laparoscopic staplers or hand-sewn suturing is feasible and safe. The surgical results were acceptable from the perspective of minimal invasiveness.展开更多
