ABSTRACT

La tasa de recidiva radiológica luego de la cirugía de las hernias hiatales grandes tipo IV es cercana al 50%. La mayoría de las veces la recidiva supone un ascenso parcial de la funduplicatura al tórax (telescopaje), y si no tiene expresión clínica puede optarse por un manejo conservador (solo 3-6% requieren cirugía de revisión). Sin embargo, en ocasiones hay otro tipo de recidivas (paraesofágicas) que deben valorarse mediante estudios funcionales, endoscópicos y radiológicos, que dan disfagia con mayor frecuencia. Un tránsito contrastado digestivo superior permite en este caso identificar el tipo de recidiva herniaria, con migración parcial del fundus gástrico hacia el tórax paraesofágico izquierdo, y una funduplicatura continente pero realizada técnicamente en por debajo de lo deseable (cuerpo alto) (figura). La resolución del cuadro implica la reducción de la hernia a la cavidad abdominal, con cierre del defecto diafragmático, desmontar la funduplicatura anterior anatomizando la zona y la reconfección de una nueva funduplicatura.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Background: Erosion and migration into the esophagogastric lumen after laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with mesh placement has been published. Aim: To present surgical maneuvers that seek to diminish the risk of this complication. Method: We suggest mobilizing the hernia sac from the mediastinum and taking it down to the abdominal position with its blood supply intact in order to rotate it behind and around the abdominal esophagus. The purpose is to cover the on-lay mesh placed in "U" fashion to reinforce the crus suture. Results: We have performed laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair in 173 patients (total group). Early postoperative complications were observed in 35 patients (27.1%) and one patient died (0.7%) due to a massive lung thromboembolism. One hundred twenty-nine patients were followed-up for a mean of 41+28months. Mesh placement was performed in 79 of these patients. The remnant sac was rotated behind the esophagus in order to cover the mesh surface. In this group, late complications were observed in five patients (2.9%). We have not observed mesh erosion or migration to the esophagogastric lumen. Conclusion: The proposed technique should be useful for preventing erosion and migration into the esophagus.


RESUMO Racional: Com a colocação de tela foi têm sido publicadas erosões e migrações para o lúmen esofagogástrico após correção de hérnia hiatal laparoscópica. Objetivo: Apresentar manobras cirúrgicas que buscam diminuir o risco dessa complicação. Método: Sugerimos mobilizar o saco de hérnia do mediastino e levá-lo à posição abdominal com o suprimento sanguíneo intacto, a fim de girá-lo para trás e ao redor do esôfago abdominal. O objetivo é cobrir a malha colocada sobre a forma "U" para reforçar a sutura da crura haital. Resultados: Realizamos reparo laparoscópico de hérnia hiatal em 173 pacientes (grupo total). Complicações pós-operatórias precoces foram observadas em 35 pacientes (27,1%) e um morreu (0,7%) devido a tromboembolismo pulmonar maciço. Cento e vinte e nove pacientes foram acompanhados por média de 41+28 meses. A colocação da tela foi realizada em 79 desses pacientes. O saco remanescente foi girado atrás do esôfago para cobrir a superfície da tela. Nesse grupo, complicações tardias foram observadas em cinco pacientes (2,9%). Não observamos erosão da tela ou migração dela para o lúmen esofagogástrico. Conclusão: A técnica proposta pode ser útil para prevenir a erosão e a migração para o esôfago de telas na correção de hérnias hiatais.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Background: Upper digestive endoscopy is important for the evaluation of patients submitted to fundoplication, especially to elucidate postoperative symptoms. However, endoscopic assessment of fundoplication anatomy and its complications is poorly standardized among endoscopists, which leads to inadequate agreement. Aim: To assess the frequency of postoperative abnormalities of fundoplication anatomy using a modified endoscopic classification and to correlate endoscopic findings with clinical symptoms. Method: This is a prospective observational study, conducted at a single center. Patients were submitted to a questionnaire for data collection. Endoscopic assessment of fundoplication was performed according to the classification in study, which considered four anatomical parameters including the gastroesophageal junction position in frontal view (above or at the level of the pressure zone); valve position at retroflex view (intra-abdominal or migrated); valve conformation (total, partial, disrupted or twisted) and paraesophageal hernia (present or absent). Results: One hundred patients submitted to fundoplication were evaluated, 51% male (mean age: 55.6 years). Forty-three percent reported postoperative symptoms. Endoscopic abnormalities of fundoplication anatomy were reported in 46% of patients. Gastroesophageal junction above the pressure zone (slipped fundoplication), and migrated fundoplication, were significantly correlated with the occurrence of postoperative symptoms. There was no correlation between symptoms and conformation of the fundoplication (total, partial or twisted). Conclusion: This modified endoscopic classification proposal of fundoplication anatomy is reproducible and seems to correlate with symptomatology. The most frequent abnormalities observed were slipped and migrated fundoplication, and both correlated with the presence of symptoms.


RESUMO Racional: A endoscopia digestiva alta é importante ferramenta para a avaliação de pacientes submetidos à fundoplicatura, principalmente para elucidar os sintomas pós-operatórios. Entretanto, a avaliação endoscópica da sua anatomia e complicações é atualmente pouco padronizada entre os endoscopistas, o que leva à disparidade de laudos e condutas. Objetivo: Avaliar a frequência de anormalidades pós-operatórias da fundoplicatura através de uma classificação endoscópica e correlacionar os achados endoscópicos com os sintomas clínicos. Método: Este é estudo observacional prospectivo, realizado em um único centro. Os pacientes foram submetidos a um questionário para coleta de dados. A avaliação endoscópica da fundoplicatura foi realizada de acordo com a classificação em estudo, que considerou quatro parâmetros anatômicos, incluindo a posição da junção gastroesofágica em vista frontal (acima ou no nível da zona de pressão); posição da válvula na visão retroflexa (intra-abdominal ou migrada); conformação valvar (total, parcial, desgarrada ou torcida) e hérnia paraesofágica (presente ou ausente). Resultados: Foram avaliados 100 pacientes submetidos à fundoplicatura, 51% homens (idade média: 55,6 anos). Quarenta e três por cento relataram sintomas pós-operatórios. Anormalidades endoscópicas da anatomia da fundoplicatura foram relatadas em 46% dos pacientes. Junção gastroesofágica acima da zona de pressão (fundoplicatura deslizada) e fundoplicatura migrada foram significativamente correlacionadas com a ocorrência de sintomas pós-operatórios. Não houve correlação entre sintomas e conformação da fundoplicatura (total, parcial ou torcida). Conclusão: Essa classificação endoscópica modificada proposta para avaliar a anatomia da fundoplicatura é reprodutível e parece correlacionar-se com a sintomatologia. As anormalidades mais frequentes observadas foram fundoplicaturas migradas e deslizadas, e ambas se correlacionaram com a presença de sintomas.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Background: Obesity represents a growing threat to population health all over the world. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy induces alteration of the esophagogastric angle due to surgery itself, hypotony of the lower esophageal sphincter after division of muscular sling fibers, decrease of the gastric volume and, consequently, increase of intragastric pressure; that's why some patients have reflux after sleeve. Aim: To describe a technique and preliminary results of sleeve gastrectomy with a Nissen fundoplication, in order to decrease reflux after sleeve. Method: In the current article we describe the technique step by step mostly focused on the creation of the wrap and it care. Results: This procedure was applied in a case of 45 BMI female of 53 years old, with GERD. An endoscopy was done demonstrating a hiatal hernia, and five benign polyps. A Nissen sleeve was performed due to its GERD, hiatal hernia and multiple polyps on the stomach. She tolerated well the procedure and was discharged home uneventfully 48 h after. Conclusion: N-sleeve is a feasible and safe alternative in obese patients with reflux and hiatal hernia when Roux-en-Y gastric bypass it is not indicated.


RESUMO Racional: A obesidade representa ameaça crescente à saúde da população em todo o mundo. A gastrectomia por laparoscopia induz alteração do ângulo esofagogástrico devido à própria técnica, hipotonia do esfíncter esofágico inferior após secção de fibras musculares da junção, diminuição do volume gástrico e, consequentemente, aumento da pressão intragástrica; é por isso que alguns pacientes têm refluxo após a gastrectomia vertical. Objetivo: Descrever uma técnica e resultados preliminares da gastrectomia vertical com fundoplicatura a Nissen, a fim de diminuir o refluxo após ela. Método: No artigo atual, descrevemos a técnica passo a passo, principalmente focada na criação da válvula e seu cuidado. Resultados: Este procedimento foi aplicado em um caso de mulher com IMC 45 de 53 anos com DRGE. Foi realizada endoscopia demonstrando hérnia hiatal e cinco pólipos benignos. A gastrectomia vertical com Nissen foi realizada devido à DRGE, à hérnia hiatal e aos múltiplos pólipos no estômago. Ela tolerou bem o procedimento e recebeu alta sem intercorrências 48 h depois. Conclusão: A N-gastrectomia vertical (N-sleeve) é alternativa viável e segura em pacientes obesos com refluxo e hérnia hiatal quando não é indicado o desvio gástrico em Y-de-Roux.

ABSTRACT

El manejo quirúrgico de las Hernias Hiatales Paraesofágicas puede ser realizado por toracotomía izquierda o por laparoscopía. Ambos abordajes son aceptables, pero actualmente se ha incrementado mucho el abordaje laparoscópico por las características de mínima invasividad, pero con la utilización de material protésico como forma de refuerzo, cuando el hiato esofágico es superior a 5 cm. Los objetivos del abordaje laparoscópico son la reducción anatómica completa y la competencia del esfínter esofágico inferior. Estos objetivos se consiguen con el cierre de la crura diafragmática y la funduplicatura laparoscópica. Se presentan dos casos clínicos donde se ha utilizado malla de Poliester fijada con tackers colocada en forma de C con la apertura hacia la cara anterior y el solapamiento por delante del esófago. CONCLUSIÓN: El uso de material protésico en la reparación del defecto de las Hernias Hiatales Gigantes es una alternativa razonable.


The surgical management of Paraesophageal Hiatal Hernia can be performed by left thoracotomy or by laparoscopy. Both approaches are acceptable, but currently the laparoscopic approach has increased greatly due to the characteristics of minimal invasiveness, but with the use of prosthetic material as a form of reinforcement, when the esophageal hiatus is greater than 5 cm. The objectives of the laparoscopic approach are a complete anatomic reduction and lower esophageal sphincter competition. These objectives are achieved with the closure of the diaphragmatic crural and laparoscopic fundoplication. Two clinical cases were presented where Polyester mesh, fixed with tackers, was placed in a C shaped disposition with the opening facing the anterior and the overlap in front of the esophagus. CONCLUSION: The use of prosthetic material in the repair of the defect of Giant Hiatal Hernia is a reasonable alternative.

ABSTRACT

Fundamento: la hernia hiatal es una afección del tracto digestivo, dentro de ella la variedad paraesofágica es infrecuente. Objetivo: ofrecer una panorámica clínica y quirúrgica de la hernia hiatal paraesofagica y realizar diagnóstico diferencial con patologías cardiovasculares por las complicaciones graves que trae consigo esta enfermedad. Presentación de caso: paciente de la sexta década de la vida acudió a consulta de gastroenterología por presentar dolor precordial, epigastralgia cuando ingería alimentos en grandes cantidades, saciedad precoz, disfagia a los líquidos en ocasiones, regurgitaciones ácidas, salida de alimentos por las fosas nasales y pérdida de peso progresiva. Se le realizó estudio contrastado de esófago, estómago y duodeno donde se diagnosticó hernia hiatal paraesofágica, fue intervenido por vía laparoscópica; se le realizó reducción de la hernia, cirugía de los pilares y funduplicatura de Nissen-Rossell ,con evolución satisfactoria. Conclusiones: ante el dolor precordial es necesario detenerse en la semiología del mismo y diferenciar el cardiovascular del no cardiovascular pues en la hernia hiatal paraesofágica sus complicaciones tienen una alta morbimortalidad.


Background: hiatal hernia is a condition of the digestive tract; within it the paraesophageal variety is uncommon. Objective: to offer a clinical and surgical review of this kind of paraesophageal hiatal hernia and perform a differential diagnosis with cardiovascular pathologies due to the severe complications this disease may bring about. A case presentation : a 60 years- old patient came to the gastroenterology consultation presenting precordial and epigasttric pain when eating great amount of food, precocious satiety, frequent dysphagia due to liquids consumption, acid regurgitation, food exit through the nasal cavity and loss of weight. A contrasted study of esophagus, stomach and duodenum was done and it was diagnosed paraesophageal hiatal hernia, he underwent laparoscopic surgery where hernia reduction, pilars surgery and Nissen funduplication were performed and the prognosis was good. Conclusions: before presenting precordial pain, it is necessary to take into account its semiology and differenciate cardiovascular from non-cardiovascular pain as in paraesophageal hiatal hernia its complications have a high morbi-mortality.

ABSTRACT

Omental hernia through the esophageal hiatus is extemely infrequent. Paraesophageal hiatal hernia with omentum in the herniary sac mimics a mediastinal lipomatous tumor and differential diagnosis should be made. This diagnosis requires experience and knowledge of the differences between these two pathologies. In the following study we describe the case of an omental hernia and the characteristics that make it different from other pathologies.

ABSTRACT

Background: Minimally invasive surgical techniques are increasingly used for the treatment of benign esophageal diseases. Aim: To report the results of minimally invasive surgical techniques among patients with benign esophageal diseases. Material and Methods: Four hundred eighty three patients aged 37 to 81 years (184 males), were studied. Of these, 278 had a Barret esophagus, 125 had a hiatal hernia, 75 had achalasia and five had esophageal diverticula. All patients were studied using standard protocols, operated using minimally invasive techniques and followed, registering postoperative complications and recurrence of symptoms. Results: Among patients with esophageal reflux, 85 percent had successful results on the long term. Among patients with hiatal hernia and subjected to laparoscopic surgery, 12 percent had complications and 12 percent had recurrence of symptoms which increased to 17 percent if a mesh was not used. The recurrence rate among patients with achalasia is less than 5 percent. There was no recurrence among patients with esophageal diverticula. Conclusions: Minimally invasive surgery for esophageal diseases has good success rates, with a lower incidence of complications than open surgery.


Introducción: En este artículo se presenta la experiencia de nuestro grupo de trabajo de los resultados obtenidos en el tratamiento quirúrgico con técnicas mínimamente invasivas en patología esofágica benigna. Material y Método: Se analizan los resultados en pacientes sometidos a cirugía antirreflujo por enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico, esófago de Barrett, tratamiento de las hernias hiatales, acalasia esofágica y diver-tículos esofágicos. Resultados: Los resultados obtenidos por nuestro grupo son comparables a los que señala la literatura internacional, con mínima morbilidad y sin mortalidad. En pacientes con reflujo gastroesofágico, los resultados a largo plazo presentan una tasa de éxito en el 85 por ciento de los casos. En pacientes con hernia hiatal operados por vía laparoscópica las complicaciones son cercanas al 12 por ciento y la recurrencia es de un 12 por ciento en promedio, pero se eleva al 17 por ciento cuando no se usa malla. En Acalasia por otro lado, la tasa de recurrencia es menor a un 5 por ciento. Los pacientes operados por divertículos esofágicos no presentan recidiva. Conclusiones: Las técnicas de cirugía mínimamente invasiva diseñadas para el abordaje de los diversos tipos de patologías que afectan al esófago, resultan por lo general, altamente factibles de realizar por cuanto reproducen los resultados de la cirugía abierta pero con menor tasa de complicaciones.

ABSTRACT

RACIONAL: A cirurgia minimamente invasiva ganhou rapidamente papel fundamental no tratamento da doença do refluxo gastroesofágico. Entretanto, o melhor método para as grandes hérnias paraesofágicas (tipos III e IV) ainda está em discussão. O uso de próteses para reforço da hiatoplastia tem sido proposto por diversos autores, no intuito de diminuir as altas taxas de recidivas encontradas nesses pacientes. Riscos de estenose e erosão da prótese são as complicações mais preocupantes quando se pensa em aplicar uma prótese no hiato esofágico. OBJETIVO: Demonstrar a técnica cirúrgica e resultados do uso de um modelo de tela idealizado no serviço dos autores para reforçar a hiatoplastia em grandes hérnias de hiato. MÉTODOS: Uma prótese de polipropileno foi aplicada para reforço da hiatoplastia em pacientes com grandes hérnias de hiato (Tipos II a IV de Hill). A prótese era cortada em forma de U, com sutura de cateter de silicone na borda côncava que ficaria em contato com o esôfago. Após sua fixação sobre a hiatoplastia, toda prótese era recoberta por gordura do omento maior, impedindo contato com o fundo gástrico ou fundoplicatura. RESULTADOS: De 1999 a 2012, esta técnica foi utilizada em 70 pacientes. Eram 52 do sexo feminino e 18 do sexo masculino, com idades variando de 32 a 83 anos (média de 63 anos). Em 48 (68,6%) pacientes, tratava-se de hérnias primárias e em 22 (31,4%) era recidivada após operação antirrefluxo. O único óbito ocorreu por sepse (1,4%) no 22o dia pós-operatório em caso com laceração da sutura da fundoplicatura causando fístula gastropleural. Não houve relação direta com o uso da prótese. Seguimento de seis meses ou mais foi obtido em 60 pacientes (85,7%), variando de seis a 146 meses (média de 49 meses). Todos os pacientes foram submetidos à entrevista clínica e pelo menos uma endoscopia e/ou radiografia contrastada no período de acompanhamento. Durante o seguimento, não foram observadas complicações (estenose ou erosão) relacionadas com a prótese. CONCLUSÃO: O uso do modelo de prótese de polipropileno descrito é seguro, desde que observados os aspectos técnicos de sua implantação.


BACKGROUND: The minimally invasive surgery has gained rapidly important role in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, the best method to treat large paraesophageal hernias (type III and IV) is still under discussion. The use of prosthetics for enhancing the crural repair has been proposed by several authors in order to reduce the high relapse rates found in these patients. AIM: To demonstrate the technique and surgical results in using an idealized polypropylene mesh for the strengthening of the cruroraphy in large hiatal hernias. METHODS: Was applied the polypropylene mesh to reinforce the hiatal closure in large hernias - types II to IV in Hill's classification - with a primary or recurrent hiatal defect greater than 5 cm, in a series of 70 patients. The prosthesis was done cutting a polypropylene mesh in a U-shape, adapted to the dimensions found in the intraoperative field and coating the inner edge (which will have direct contact with the esophagus) with a silicon catheter. This was achieved by removing a small longitudinal segment of the catheter and then inserting the edge of the cut mesh, fixing with running nylon 5-0 suture. RESULTS: From 1999 to 2012, this technique was used in 70 patients. There were 52 females and 18 males, aged 32-83 years (mean 63 years). In 48 (68.6%) patients, paraesophageal hernia was primary and in 22 (31.4%), it was relapse after antireflux surgery. The only case of death in this series (1.4%) occurred on 22nd postoperative day in one patient (74 y) that had a laceration of the sutures on the fundoplication, causing gastropleural fistula and death. There was no relationship with the use of the prosthesis. A follow-up of six months or more was achieved in 60 patients (85.7%), ranging from six to 146 months (mean 49 months). All patients have at least one follow-up endoscopy or esophageal contrast examination, and a clinical interview. In this follow-up period, no cases of complications related to the prosthesis (stenosis or erosion) were observed. CONCLUSION: The use of this model of polypropylene mesh is safe if the technical aspects of its placement are followed carefully.

ABSTRACT

Background: Minimally invasive surgery has the advantage of a lower rate of complications and can be used for benign esophageal diseases. Aim: To report a single surgeon experience with laparoscopic surgery for benign esophageal diseases. Material and Methods: Prospective analysis of 421 patients (160 males) with benign esophageal disease, who were subjected to laparoscopic surgery by a single surgeon. Immediate mortality, surgical complications and long term results in terms of symptoms recurrence, were analyzed. Results: The underlying diagnoses of the operated patients were Barrett's esophagus or esophagitis in 257, hiatal hernia in 91, achalasia in 68 and esophageal diverticula in five. Surgery obtained successful results in 90% of patients with Barrett's esophagus. Among patients with hiatal hernia, there was a 12% rate of complications and a 30% recurrence, when a mesh was not used. Among patients with achalasia the recurrence rate was less than 5%. Conclusions: Laparoscopic surgery has a fair success rate in benign esophageal diseases, with a lower rate of complications.

ABSTRACT

O pneumoperitônio (PP), utilizado durante laparoscopia, produz oligúria transitória e diminui o ritmo de filtração glomerular (RFG) e o fluxo sanguíneo renal (FSR). O diagnóstico da disfunção renal aguda é rotineiramente baseado na elevação sérica da creatinina (Cr) e/ou na detecção de oligúria. A cistatina C (Cis C) tem sido estudada como um novo marcador de função renal. O objetivo foi avaliar a função renal, por meio da estimativa do RFG baseada nas concentrações sérica de Cr ou Cis C, de pacientes submetidos à videolaparoscopia.foram estudados 41 pacientes submetidos à colecistectomia ou à hiatoplastia pela via laparoscópica. A pressão intra-abdominal (PIA) foi mantida em 15 mm Hg durante a cirurgia. Amostras sanguíneas foram coletadas para mensuração dos valores séricos de vasopressina, Cr e Cis C antes da anestesia (M1), 30 min após a insuflação do PP (M2) e 30 min após a deflação do PP (M3). Quando a Cr foi utilizada para a estimativa do RFG, esta foi calculada pela fórmula de Cockcroft-Gault (RFG-CG). Quando a Cis C foi utilizada para o mesmo fim, a fórmula empregada foi a de Larsson (RFG-Larsson).os valores de Cis C aumentaram durante o estudo (M1 = M2 < M3; p < 0.05), enquanto os valores de Cr diminuíram nos momentos estudados, provavelmente decorrente da hemodiluição resultante da reposição volêmica durante o procedimento (M1 = M2 > M3; p < 0.05). Consequentemente, o RFG-Larsson (mL.min-1) diminuiu (M1 = 134,5 ± 38,2; M2 = 128,5 ± 33,8; M3 = 121,3 ± 33,7; M1 = M2 > M3) e o RFGCG aumentou durante os momentos estudados (M1 = 132,9 ± 37,9; M2 = 140,7 ± 45,4; M3 = 155,8 ± 57,0; M1 = M2 < M3).


Pneumoperitoneum (PP) used during laparoscopic procedure has been shown to produce transient oliguria and reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal blood flow (RBF). The diagnostic of acute kidney injury is usually based on either an elevation of serum creatinine (Cr) or the detection of oliguria. A relatively new marker for detecting renal injury is the cystatin C (Cys C). Our goal was to evaluate the renal function through analysis of GFR estimated by concentration of serum Cys C and serum Cr during laparoscopic surgery.we evaluated 41 patients subjected to colecistectomy or hiatoplasty by laparoscopic approach. Intraperitonial pressure during PP was maintained in 15 mm Hg. Blood samples were collected for vasopressin, Cys C, and Cr measurements (before intubation (M1), 30 min after PP (M2), and 30 min after the deflation of PP (M3)). To estimate GFR we used Larsson formula to evaluate Cys C (GFR-Larsson) and Cockcroft-Gault formula to evaluate Cr (GFR-CG).the values of Cys C increased during the study (M1 = M2 < M3; p < 0.05). Cr values decreased during the study probably because the hemodilution effect caused by fluid replacement (M1 = M2 > M3; p < 0.05). Consequently, the GFR-Larsson (ml.min-1) decreased (M1 = 134.5 ± 38.2; M2 = 128.5 ± 33.8; M3 = 121.3 ± 33.7 with M1 = M2 > M3), while GFR-CG increased during the study (M1 = 132.9 ± 37.9; M2 = 140.7 ± 45.4; M3 = 155.8 ± 57.0 with M1 = M2 < M3). Person’s analysis showed better correlation between Cys C values and GFRLarsson (M1 = -0.96; M2 = -0.95; M3 = -0.94) versus Cr values and GFR-CG (M1 = - 0.65; M2 = -0.67; M3 = -0.78).

ABSTRACT

Laparoscopic repair of paraesophageal hernia is safe and feasible and can provide comparable results for patients with type IV paraesophageal hernia. We report a rare case of mediastinal seroma in an 80-year-old gentleman who had a giant type IV paraesophageal hernia and was eventually admitted to our hospital for elective laparoscopic repair and recovered very well after surgery with resolution of the atelectatic lungs and air-fluid collection in his chest

ABSTRACT

RACIONAL: Uma das principais complicações após a fundoplicatura laparoscópica é a migração do fundo gástrico para o tórax, com ou sem ruptura da válvula. Isso pode ocorrer como consequência de fechamento inadequado do hiato diafragmático, por ruptura das suturas realizadas ou por laceração das fibras musculares manipuladas. OBJETIVO: Estudar a utilização da tela de Prolene® ou de Dacron® para reforçar o fechamento do hiato diafragmático. MÉTODOS: Foram operados 15 pacientes (6 homens e 9 mulheres) com idade média de 46 anos (22 a 78) tendo-se realizado operação laparoscópica anti-refluxo, utilizando-se tela Prolene® ou Dacron® para reforçar a crura hiatal. Os pacientes foram operados sob anestesia geral, por videolaparoscopia utilizando cinco trocárteres. RESULTADOS: O tempo médio de operação foi de 120 minutos. Não ocorreu nenhum óbito. O tempo pós-operatório médio foi de 3,5 dias. Os pacientes retornaram à suas atividades habituais em torno do 10º dia do pós-operatório. O tempo médio de seguimento foi de cinco anos. Em apenas dois pacientes, nos quais foram utilizadas em um a tela de Dacron® e em outro Prolene®, ocorreu migração da tela para o lúmen esofágico ocasionando disfagia. CONCLUSÃO: Utilizar tela nas hiatoplastias videolaparoscópicas é boa alternativa para o fechamento dos defeitos diafragmáticos nas grandes hérnias hiatais, na correção da esofagite de refluxo associada ao esôfago de Barrett, ou em caso de recorrência da hérnia hiatal ou esofagite após correção cirúrgica prévia.


BACKGROUND: A major complication after laparoscopic fundoplication is migration of the fundic wrap into the chest, with or without rupture of the valve. This can occur as a result of inadequate closure of the diaphragmatic hiatus, by rupture of sutures or carried by laceration of the muscle fibers manipulated. AIM: To verify the efficiency of the use of Dacron® or Prolene® mesh in the reinforcement of the diaphragmatic hiatus. METHODS: Fifteen patients were operated with mean age of 46 years using laparoscopic antireflux surgery, with Prolene® or Dacron® mesh reinforcement of the hiatal crura. The patients were operated under general anesthesia by laparoscopy using five trocars. The average time of surgery was 120 minutes. No deaths occurred. The mean postoperative time was 3.5 days. Patients returned to normal activities around the 10th postoperative day. The mean follow-up was five years. In only two patients, in which were used in a Dacron® mesh, and in another Prolene®, there was migration of the mesh to the esophageal lumen causing dysphagia. CONCLUSION: The mesh use in laparoscopic hiatoplasties is good alternative to close the diaphragmatic defect in large hiatal hernias, correction of reflux esophagitis associated with Barrett's esophagus or hiatal hernia/esophagitis recurrence after surgical correction.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Gastric volvulus is frequently an asymptomatic disease, and it is usually diagnosed during radiographic examination of the superior digestive tract. The acute form, however, can spawn serious and lethal clinical consequences. This disease is defined by the anomalous rotation of the stomach over itself, and it can be classified according to type, extension, direction, etiology, and clinical presentation. AIM: To review the records from 38 patients with gastric volvulus diagnosed in the Hospital das Clínicas of University of São Paulo between 1968 and 2001. METHODS: This is retrospective analysis of 38 patient records. It was collected from each patient: name, age of first symptom appearance, gender, main clinical findings and complementary exams, volvulus type, extension, direction, etiology, and clinical presentation, therapeutic procedures, type of surgery performed, eventual recurrence, and long-term evolution. RESULTS: It was observed that occurrences of gastric volvulus are mainly secondary (75.8%). For the majority of patients (n=33), surgery was chosen as the treatment option: chronic disease in 29 cases and acute in four. Conservative treatment was reserved only for patients with no clinical conditions to surgical treatment. Anterior gastropexy was associated to high recurrence rates. Suturing the low gastric curve to the hepatic capsule and the transverse colon to the left subphrenic space (Tanner´s operation) seemed to be the technical treatment of choice for primary gastric volvulus. CONCLUSION: Treatment of gastric volvolus must be tailored according the etiology of the disease.


RACIONAL: O volvo gástrico é frequentemente condição assintomática e diagnosticado em exame radiológico feito por outras causas. A forma aguda, no entanto, pode ter consequências graves e letais. Ele é definido como rotação anômala do estômago nele próprio e classificado de acordo com o tipo, extensão, direção, causa e apresentação clínica. OBJETIVO: Apresentar aspectos clínicos e morfológicos de volvos gástricos. em 38 pacientes. MÉTODOS: Análise retrospectiva onde foram coletadas informações registradas sobre 38 pacientes a cerda da idade, surgimento do primeiro sintoma, gênero, principais achados clínicos, de exames complementares, tipo do volvo, causa, procedimentos terapêuticos, recidivas e evolução tardia. RESULTADOS: Em 75,8% o volvo foi secundário Na maioria dos pacientes a opção de tratamento foi cirúrgica. Ele era crônico em 29 e agudo em quatro pacientes. O tratamento conservador foi indicado somente aos sem condições clínicas para operações. Gastropexia anterior foi associada à alta taxa de recidiva. A sutura da pequena curvatura gástrica à cápsula hepática e cólon transverso na fossa subfrência esquerda (operação de Tanner) parece ser o tratamento de escolha nos volvos primários. CONCLUSÃO: O tratamento do volvo gástrico deve ser feito sob medida caso a caso e de acordo com a causa da doença.
