ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Intestinal obstruction due to flanges is common in patients with a surgical history. OBJECTIVE: Describe a clinical case with adherenciolysis. Surgery could not be performed, so pneumoperitoneum was used as pre-conditioning for elective surgery. CLINICAL CASE: Patient with intestinal obstruction due to flanges, with impossibility of performing an adherenciolysis, for which catheters are installed to administer progressive pneumoperitoneum in order to optimize the release of flanges in elective surgery, undergoing the postoperative period with enterocutaneous fistula that required multidisciplinary management with percutaneous drainage, parenteral nutrition and nursing care, with a successful result. DISCUSSION: In a flange obstruction, an extensive adherenciolysis is often required, which carries a greater risk of intestinal injury and enterocutaneous fistula. In this case, we believe that it decreased due to the pneumoperitoneum used to generate more lax and manageable flanges. CONCLUSION: Postoperative flanges generate significant morbidity and its surgical management requires an adherenciolysis that may be laborious or impossible in the first instance, requiring in this case the use of progressive pneumoperitoneum for complete flange release, a technique not described in the literature for this purpose.


INTRODUCCIÓN: La obstrucción intestinal por bridas es frecuente en pacientes con antecedentes quirúrgicos. OBJETIVO: Describir un caso clínico con adherenciolisis frustra por cirugía, utilizando neumoperitoneo como preacondicionamiento para cirugía electiva. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente con obstrucción intestinal por bridas, con imposibilidad de adherenciolisis, por lo que se instalan catéteres para administrar neumoperitoneo progresivo con el fin de optimizar la liberación de bridas en cirugía electiva, cursando en el postoperatorio con fístula enterocutánea que requirió manejo multidisciplinario con drenaje percutáneo, nutrición parenteral y cuidados por enfermería, que finalmente resultó exitoso. DISCUSIÓN: En una obstrucción por bridas muchas veces se requiere una adherenciolisis extensa que conlleva mayor riesgo de lesión intestinal y fístula enterocutánea, que en este caso creemos que disminuyó debido al neumoperitoneo utilizado para generar bridas más laxas y manejables. CONCLUSIÓN: Las bridas postoperatorias generan morbilidad importante y su manejo quirúrgico requiere adherenciolisis que puede resultar laboriosa o imposible en primera instancia, requiriendo en este caso el uso de neumoperitoneo progresivo para la liberación de bridas completa, técnica no descrita en la literatura para este fin.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Una fístula es una conexión anormal entre dos superficies epitelizadas. Cerca del 80 % de las fístulas entero-cutáneas son de origen iatrogénico secundarias a cirugía, y un menor porcentaje se relacionan con traumatismos, malignidad, enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal o isquemia. La morbilidad y las complicaciones asociadas pueden ser significativas, como la desnutrición, en la que intervienen múltiples factores. Métodos. Se realizó una búsqueda de la literatura en las bases de datos de PubMed, Google Scholar y SciELO, utilizando las palabras claves descritas y se seleccionaron los artículos más relevantes de los últimos años. Resultados. La clasificación de las fístulas se basa en su anatomía, su gasto o secreción diaria y su localización. Existe una tríada clásica de las complicaciones: sepsis, desnutrición y anomalías electrolíticas. El control del gasto de la fístula, el drenaje adecuado de las colecciones y la terapia antibiótica son claves en el manejo precoz de estos pacientes. Los estudios recientes hacen hincapié en que la sepsis asociada con la desnutrición son las principales causas de mortalidad. Conclusiones. Esta condición representa una de las complicaciones de más difícil y prolongado tratamiento en cirugía abdominal y colorrectal, y se relaciona con importantes tasas de morbilidad, mortalidad y altos costos para el sistema de salud. Es necesario un tratamiento multidisciplinario basado en la reanimación con líquidos, el control de la sepsis, el soporte nutricional y el cuidado de la herida, entre otros factores.


Introduction. A fistula is an abnormal connection between two epithelialized surfaces. About 80% of enterocutaneous fistulas are of iatrogenic origin secondary to surgery, and a smaller percentage are related to trauma, malignancy, inflammatory bowel disease or ischemia. The associated morbidity and complications can be significant, such as malnutrition, in which multiple factors intervene. Methods. A literature search was carried out in the PubMed, Google Scholar and SciELO databases using the keywords described and the most relevant articles from recent years were selected. Results. The classification of fistulas is based on their anatomy, their daily secretion output, and their location. There is a classic triad of complications: sepsis, malnutrition and electrolyte abnormalities. Control of fistula output, adequate drainage of the collections and antibiotic therapy are key to the early management of these patients. Recent studies emphasize that sepsis associated with malnutrition are the main causes of mortality. Conclusions. This condition represents one of the most difficult and prolonged complications to treat in abdominal and colorectal surgery, and is related to significant rates of morbidity, mortality and high costs for the health system. Multidisciplinary treatment based on fluid resuscitation, sepsis control, nutritional support, and wound care, among other factors, is necessary.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las fístulas enterocutáneas representan una enfermedad grave que deben afrontar un gran número de cirujanos durante el ejercicio de la profesión. El tratamiento suele ser extremadamente complejo y siempre requiere de una intervención multidisciplinaria adaptada para cada caso en particular. Objetivo: Evaluar las características clínico-epidemiológicas y terapéuticas de las fístulas enterocutáneas posoperatorias. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, con recogida prospectiva de datos en el quinquenio 2013-2017. El universo fue de 28 pacientes diagnosticados con fístula enterocutánea posoperatoria y se usaron las variables: edad, sexo, carácter de la intervención, diagnóstico operatorio, tipo de fístula, tratamiento definitivo, complicaciones y pilares de tratamiento. Resultados: La edad media fue de 49 años. Las fístulas fueron más frecuentes en el sexo femenino (53,57 por ciento). El 78,57 por ciento de los pacientes fueron intervenidos con carácter de urgencia, y el 25 por ciento tuvieron un diagnóstico operatorio de oclusión intestinal mecánica por bridas seguida de la oclusión intestinal por tumor de colon izquierdo (17,86 por ciento). La hemicolectomía izquierda con anastomosis término-terminal (21,43 por ciento) y la resección intestinal con anastomosis término-terminal (17,86 por ciento) fueron los principales procedimientos quirúrgicos realizados. Conclusiones: Las fístulas de tipo II y de bajo gasto prevalecieron en la serie de casos en una media de tiempo que se corresponde con lo reportado en la literatura. La infección del sitio quirúrgico fue la complicación más observada y los pilares del tratamiento fueron cumplidos en la mayoría de los pacientes prevaleciendo el cierre espontáneo como tratamiento definitivo(AU)


Introduction: Enterocutaneous fistulas are a serious disease that a large number of surgeons must face during the practice of their profession. Their treatment is usually extremely complex and always requires a multidisciplinary intervention adapted to each particular case. Objective: To evaluate the clinical-epidemiological and therapeutic characteristics of postoperative enterocutaneous fistulas. Methods: An observational and descriptive study was performed, with prospective data collection, in the five-year period 2013-2017. The study universe was 28 patients diagnosed with postoperative enterocutaneous fistula. The following variables were used: age, sex, nature of the intervention, operative diagnosis, type of fistula, definitive treatment, complications and treatment cornerstones. Results: The mean age was 49 years. Fistulas were more frequent in the female sex (53.57 percent). 78.57 percent of the patients underwent emergency surgery, while 25 percent had an operative diagnosis of mechanical intestinal occlusion due to adherences, followed by intestinal occlusion due to left colon tumor (17.86 percent). Left hemicolectomy with end-to-end anastomosis (21.43 percent) and intestinal resection with end-to-end anastomosis (17.86 percent) were the main surgical procedures. Conclusions: Type II and low-output fistulas prevailed in the case series at a mean time that corresponds to that reported in the literature. Surgical site infection was the most frequently observed complication, while the treatment cornerstones were fulfilled in most patients, with spontaneous closure prevailing as a definitive treatment(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Las fístulas derivadas de enfermedades neoplásicas del tracto digestivo, así como las fugas posteriores a procedimientos quirúrgicos, no son infrecuentes y ocasionan una morbilidad importante cuando se manejan de forma quirúrgica. También durante los procedimientos endoscópicos se pueden presentar perforaciones y, si se logra un manejo no operatorio, se alcanza una adecuada recuperación. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir las características clínicas y los resultados de los pacientes con perforaciones, fístulas y fugas del tracto gastrointestinal, manejadas endoscópicamente con clip sobre el endoscopio. Métodos. Estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, de pacientes con perforación, fuga o fístula postoperatoria, llevados a endoscopía digestiva con colocación de clip sobre el endoscopio, en el Instituto Nacional de Cancerología en Bogotá, D.C., Colombia, entre enero de 2016 y abril de 2020. Resultados. Se incluyeron 21 pacientes, 52,4 % de ellos mujeres. La mediana de edad fue de 66 años y del diámetro del defecto fue de 9 mm. En el 95 % se logró éxito técnico. Hubo éxito clínico temprano en el 85,7 % de los casos. El 76,1 % de los pacientes permanecieron sin síntomas a los 3 meses de seguimiento. Conclusiones. El manejo de perforaciones, fugas y fístulas con clip sobre el endoscopio parece ser factible y seguro. En la mayoría de estos pacientes se logró la liberación del clip y la identificación endoscópica del cierre inmediatamente después del procedimiento; sin embargo, en el caso de las fístulas, no se alcanzó el éxito clínico tardío en todos los casos


Introduction. Fistula of the digestive tract derived from neoplastic diseases as well as leaks following surgical procedures are not uncommon and usually cause significant morbidity when are managed surgically. Diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures may present perforations during their performance; if they are managed non-operatively, an adequate recovery is obtained. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics and the short- and long-term outcomes of patients with perforations, fistulas and leaks of the gastrointestinal tract managed endoscopically with over the scope clip (OTSC). Methods. Descriptive, retrospective study of patients brought to digestive endoscopy with OTSC placement with diagnosis of postoperative perforation, leak or fistula at the National Cancer Institute in Bogota, Colombia, between January 2016 and April 2020. Results. Twenty-one patients were taken for OTSC application for the management of perforations, leaks and fistulas of the gastrointestinal tract, 52.4% of them were women. The median age was 66 years. The median diameter of the defect was 9 mm. Technical success was achieved in 95%. Early clinical success was described in 85.7% of the cases; 76.1% of patients remained symptom-free at 3-month follow-up. Conclusions. Management of perforations, leaks and fistulas with OTSC appears to be feasible and safe. In most of these patients, clip release and endoscopic identification of closure was achieved immediately after management; however, in the case of fistulas, late clinical success was not achieved in all cases

ABSTRACT

Open abdomen therapy is an effective treatment to deal with severe abdominal infections, abdominal hypertension and other critical abdominal diseases. However, this therapy is difficult to implement and has many uncertainties in the timing, manners, and follow-up treatment, which leads to the fact that open abdomen therapy is not very accessible and standardized in medical systems of China. This consensus aims to provide guiding principles for indications and implementation of open abdomen, classification methods of open abdomen wounds, technologies for abdominal closure, and management of enteroatmospheric fistula, so as to improve the accessibility and success rate of open abdomen in China.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) is a condition in which there is an abnormal connection between the intestinal tract and the skin. It can lead to high morbidity and mortality rates despite the availability of therapeutic options. Stem cells have emerged as a potential strategy to treat ECF. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASC) on ECF in an experimental model. Methods: ECF was induced in 21 Wistar rats, and after one month, they were divided into three groups: control group (C), culture medium without ASC group (CM), and allogeneic ASC group (ASC). After 30 days, the animals underwent macroscopic analysis of ECF diameter and histopathological analysis of inflammatory cells, tissue fibrosis, and vascular density. Results: The study found a 55% decrease in the ECF diameter in the ASC group (4.5 ± 1.4 mm) compared to the control group (10.0 ± 2.1 mm, p = 0.001) and a 59.1% decrease in the CM group (11.0 ± 4.3 mm, p = 0.003). The fibrosis score in the ASC group was 20.9% lower than the control group (p = 0.03). There were no significant differences in inflammation scores among the three groups. Conclusions: This study suggests that ASC treatment can reduce ECF diameter, and reduction in tissue fibrosis may be a related mechanism. Further studies are needed to understand the underlying mechanisms fully.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Antecedentes: la reconstrucciónn del tránsito intestinal luego de una operación de Hartmann es un procedimiento habitualmente complejo y con alta morbilidad. Objetivo: analizar la tasa de reconstrucción después de la cirugía de Hartmann y resultados posoperatorios en nuestra experiencia. Material y métodos: análisis retrospectivo de pacientes a los que se les practicó la reconstrucción del tránsito intestinal posterior a una cirugía de Hartmann en un período 16 años. Revisamos la bibliografía y nuestra base de datos. Luego traspasamos la información disponible a una grilla de datos construida con variables habitualmente analizadas en la literatura. Finalmente, analizamos los resultados mediante medidas básicas de tendencia central. Resultados: en 16 años realizamos 92 operaciones de Hartmann, de las cuales 69 (75%) llegaron a la reconstrucción. Edad promedio: 58 años. El 52% de los pacientes fueron hombres. La operación de Hartmann fue de urgencia en el 48% y 58% resultaron malignas. Tiempo transcurrido hasta la reconstrucción: en promedio, 9 meses, y el 90% (N 62) de los casos se realizó por vía laparoscópica. Morbilidad general 38% y ajustada a los grados III y IV de Clavien-Dindo fue 11,5%. No hubo mortalidad. Conclusión: los resultados obtenidos son semejantes a los publicados y nuestra experiencia nos motiva a continuar eligiendo el abordaje laparoscópico.


ABSTRACT Background: Background: Stoma reversal after Hartman's operation is usually a complex procedure and is associated high morbidity. Objective: To analyze the rate of reversal after the Hartmann's procedure and the postoperative outcomes in our experience. Material and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing reversal after the Hartmann's procedure over a 16-year period with review of the literature and of our database and transferred the available information to a data grid constructed with variables commonly analyzed in the literature. Finally, we analyzed the results using basic measures of central tendency. Results: Over a 16-year period, we performed 92 Hartmann's operations; 69 (75%) reached the reversal stage. Mean age was 58 years and 52% were men. Forty-eight percent of the Hartmann's procedures were emergency surgeries and 58% were due to cancer. Mean time to reversal was 9 months and 90% (n = 62) were laparoscopic procedures. Overall morbidity and adjusted for complications grade III and IV of the Clavien-Dindo classification were 38% and 11.5%, respectively. None of the patients died. Conclusion: The results obtained are similar to those published and our experience motivates us to continue choosing the laparoscopic approach.

ABSTRACT

Los abscesos del psoas ilíaco secundarios a un tumor de colon fistulizado son excepcionales y potencialmente graves. La mayoría son adenocarcinomas de tipo mucinoso. Su tratamiento es complejo ya que, para lograr una resección oncológica pretendidamente curativa, es necesario realizar una resección ampliada con mayor morbimortalidad. Presentamos el caso de una paciente con un adenocarcinoma mucinoso de colon izquierdo fistulizado al músculo ilíaco y la pared anterolateral del abdomen en la que se realizó una resección multivisceral que incluyó el colon izquierdo, el músculo y la cresta ilíaca y parte de la pared anterolateral del abdomen.


Iliopsoas abscess secondary to perforation of colon cancer is an extremely rare and potentially life-threatening condition. Most tumors are mucinous adenocarcinomas. Its treatment its complex, as most patients need radical extended resections to achieve good oncological results, which are in turn, graved with higher morbidity and mortality. We present the case of a patient with a left colon mucinous adenocarcinoma penetrating to the iliopsoas muscle and the anterolateral abdominal wall that required a multivisceral resection including left colon, iliac muscle and crest and part of the anterolateral abdominal wall.


Abscessos do iliopsoas secundários a um tumor de cólon fistulizado são raros e potencialmente graves. A maioria são adenocarcinomas do tipo mucinoso. Seu tratamento é complexo, pois, para se obter uma ressecção oncológica supostamente curativa, é necessário realizar uma ressecção ampliada com maior morbimortalidade. Apresentamos o caso de um paciente com adenocarcinoma mucinoso de cólon esquerdo fistulizado para o músculo ilíaco e parede ântero-lateral do abdome no qual foi realizada ressecção multivisceral que incluiu cólon esquerdo, músculo e crista ilíaca e parte do a parede anterolateral do abdome.

ABSTRACT

La fístula gastrocólica descrita en 1755 por Albrecht von Haller, se define como la comunicación anormal entre el colon generalmente transverso y estómago en su curvatura mayor. Se conocen distintas etiologías, siendo un hallazgo poco frecuente con escasos reportes en la literatura. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 85 años con historia de anemia y adelgazamiento que consulta por cuadro de vómitos fecaloideos, sin alteraciones de tránsito digestivo bajo, sin dolor ni distensión abdominal con ruidos hidroaéreos normales y sonda nasogástrica con contenido fecaloideo. La Tomografía (fig. 1) confirma una lesión de probable etiología maligna del ángulo esplénico del colon fistulizado a estómago por lo que se decide la realización de una colectomía sectorial con anastomosis primaria y gastrectomía subtotal, evolucionando favorablemente con un alta a los 6 días. La anatomía patológica informa adenocarcinoma de colon moderadamente diferenciado con compromiso gástrico.

ABSTRACT

Enterovesical fistula (EVF) is a fistulous communication between the intestine and the bladder. It is uncommon and its classic clinical manifestations are the presence of pneumaturia, fecaluria, suprapubic pain and recurrent urinary infections. Surgical repair of EVF leads to rapid correction of both diarrhea and metabolic abnormalities. We report a 73-year-old diabetic woman with a neurogenic bladder secondary to a spine meningioma. She presented with diarrhea, vomiting, impaired consciousness and metabolic acidosis. She developed hypernatremia, hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, and hypophosphatemia, which were successfully corrected.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Los defectos técnicos en el cierre de la laparotomía, como la utilización de suturas inadecuadas, muy apretadas o distancia incorrecta entre los puntos, presencia de cuerpos extraños, hematomas o la inclusión de un asa intestinal (pellizcamiento de esta), pueden provocar la aparición de una hernia incisional, y peor aún acompañarse de una fístula intestinal. Objetivo: Corroborar la importancia del cierre correcto y cuidadoso de la pared abdominal después de una laparotomía. Presentación del caso: Se trata de una paciente de 34 años de edad con antecedentes de tres cesáreas en un período de seis años, la última hace seis meses, que fue atendida en el Hospital Mnazi Mmoja, en Tanzania, refiriendo salida de contenido líquido amarillento a nivel de la cicatriz quirúrgica. Al examen físico se constata hernia incisional y un asa intestinal adherida a la piel con un orificio de menos de un cm por donde sale contenido intestinal amarillento. Se interviene con diagnóstico preoperatorio de hernia incisional y fístula enterocutánea; se realiza resección de 3 tres cm del íleon, anastomosis termino-terminal donde se encuentra el orificio fistuloso y hernioplastia mediante la técnica de Rives con utilización de malla de polipropileno. La evolución posoperatoria fue satisfactoria. Conclusiones: Se refuerza la afirmación que es de suma importancia el cierre correcto y cuidadoso de la pared abdominal después de una laparotomía, sobre todo si se realiza con urgencia(AU)


Introduction: In the closure of the laparotomy, technical defects such as the use of inadequate sutures, too tight or incorrect distance between stitches, the presence of foreign bodies, hematomas or the inclusion of an intestinal loop (pinching) can cause the appearance of an incisional hernia which, even worse, can be accompanied by an intestinal fistula. Objective: To corroborate the importance of the correct and careful closure of the abdominal wall after performing laparotomy. Case presentation: A 34-year-old patient with a history of three previous cesarean sections in a six-year period, the last one performed six months, was treated at the Mnazi Mmoja Hospital in Tanzania when she reported the release of a yellowish liquid content at the surgical scar level. Physical examination revealed an incisional hernia and an intestinal loop attached to the skin with a hole of less than one cm through which yellowish intestinal content was coming out. She was operated on with the preoperative diagnosis of incisional hernia and enterocutaneous fistula; a three-cm resection of the ileum, end-to-end anastomosis where the fistulous orifice was located, and hernioplasty were performed using the Rives technique with polypropylene mesh. The postoperative evolution was satisfactory. Conclusions: The assertion that correct and careful closure of the abdominal wall after laparotomy is of utmost importance, especially if it is performed urgently, is reinforced(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción. La fístula enteroatmosférica es una patología compleja que puede ser el resultado de múltiples intervenciones quirúrgicas de la cavidad abdominal. Describimos una nueva técnica para el control de la contaminación en pacientes con fístulas enteroatmosféricas en abdomen abierto Björck 4.Métodos. Se realizó un análisis retrospectivo de cuatro pacientes con fístulas enteroatmosféricas desarrolladas como complicación de procedimientos quirúrgicos abdominales. Se trataron integralmente por un grupo multidisciplinario de Cuidados Intensivos, Cirugía general, Soporte nutricional y Cuidado de heridas y ostomías. Se utilizó una novedosa técnica quirúrgica basada en el principio de capilaridad para mantener limpios los tejidos periostomales. Resultados. Con esta técnica se logró el control de la contaminación abdominal en todos los pacientes y una evo-lución clínica satisfactoria. Posteriormente se programaron para cierre quirúrgico definitivo con éxito. Conclusiones. El manejo de la fístula enteroatmosférica representa un reto para el cirujano y el grupo multidisciplinario que trata al paciente. Esta nueva técnica utilizada en pacientes con fístula enteroatmosférica con abdomen abierto Björck 4 se basa en el principio de capilaridad, y es eficaz en el control de la contaminación, infección y de la sepsis asociada.


Introduction. Enterocutaneous fistula is a complex pathology that can be the result of multiple surgical interventions of the abdominal cavity. We describe a new technique for the control of contamination in patients with enterocutaneous fistulas in the open abdomen Björck 4. Methods. A retrospective analysis of four patients with enterocutaneous fistulas developed as a complication of abdominal surgical procedures was performed. They were treated by a multidisciplinary team of Intensive Care, General Surgery, Nutritional support and Wound and ostomy care. A novel surgical technique based on the capillarity principle was used to keep the periostomies tissues clean. Results. With this technique, control of abdominal contamination was achieved in all patients and a satisfactory clinical evolution. Later they were scheduled for definitive surgical closure with total success. Conclusions. The management of an enterocutaneous fistula represents a challenge for the surgeon and the multidisciplinary group that treats these patients. This new technique used in patients with an enterocutaneous fistula with open abdomen Björck 4 is based on the principle of capillarity action, and is effective in controlling contamination, infection, and associated sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Primary aortoenteric fistula is the spontaneous communication between the lumen of the aorta and a portion of the digestive tract. The most common cause is the erosion of an abdominal aortic aneurysm into the 3rd or 4th portion of the duodenum. It manifests clinically as gastrointestinal bleeding, with or without abdominal pain and a pulsatile abdominal mass on physical exam. Gastrointestinal bleeding is initially recurrent and self-limiting and progresses to fatal exsanguinating hemorrhage. Endoscopic examination diagnoses only 25% of aortoenteric fistulas because these are usually located in the distal duodenum. Contrast computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis is diagnostic in only 60% of cases. We report three cases with this condition. A 67-year-old male presenting with an upper gastrointestinal bleeding. He was operated and a communication between an aortic aneurysm and the duodenum was found and surgically repaired. The patient is well. A 67-year-old male with an abdominal aortic aneurysm presenting with abdominal pain. He was operated and anticoagulated. In the postoperative period he had a massive gastrointestinal bleeding and a new CAT scan revealed an aorto enteric fistula that was surgically repaired. The patient is well. An 82-year-old male with an abdominal aortic aneurysm presenting with hematochezia. A CAT scan revealed a communication between the aneurysm and the third portion of the duodenum, that was surgically repaired. The patient died in the eighth postoperative day.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of fistula stent made by 3D printing technique in the treatment of enteroatmospheric fistula. Methods: A descriptive case series study was carried out.@*INCLUSION CRITERIA@#(1) patients with open abdomen; (2) patients with enteroatmospheric fistula.@*EXCLUSION CRITERIA@#(1) patient with two or more fistulas; (2) distal obstruction; (3) bowel stenosis over 50%. According to above criteria, 17 EAF patients admitted to the General Surgery Department of Jinling Hospital from June 2019 to January 2020 were retrospectively included in study. Based on the intestinal radiography, CT reconstruction and finger exploration, the size of fistula, the diameter of the intestinal tube and the angle of the intestinal lumen around the fistula were assessed. The 3D printing fistula stent was designed and established based on estimated data, and then placed through the fistula.@*OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS@#(1) success rate of stent implantation; (2) outflow of intestinal contents after implantation; (3) tolerated exercise time; (4) receiving definite operation time for intestinal fistula; (5) time to recovery of enteral nutrition. The t-test was used to compare the outflow amount of intestinal content before and after the stent implantation and the tolerated exercise time. The changes of the outflow amount of intestinal content and tolerated exercise time were analyzed by repeated measurement ANOVA. Results: Seventeen EAF patients with open abdomen included 13 males and 4 females. All the patients successfully received intestinal fistula stent implantation. Gastrointestinal angiography 2 days after implantation showed that the digestive tract was unobstructed, and the stent was successfully kept in place until definite surgery. No stent implantation-related adverse reactions were found in patients undergoing definite intestinal fistula surgery. The average outflow amount of intestinal fluid within 7 days after implantation decreased from (702.7±198.9) ml/d to on the first day after implantation (45.8±22.4) ml/d on the 7th day(F=10.380, P<0.001). The ambulatory time and exercise time of patients continued to increase after stent implantation. The average tolerated exercise time within 14 days after stent implantation increased from (9.1±3.8) min/d to (106.9±21.8) min/d (F=41.727, P<0.001). Within 120 days after stent implantation, 15 patients successfully underwent definite surgery for intestinal fistula and reconstruction of abdominal wall. Patients needed a median (IQR) of 3 (2, 5) days to recover enteral nutrition. The average time from stent placement to surgery was (87.2±17.6) days. Two patients died of severe abdominal infection with multiple organ failure. Conclusion: 3D printing fistula stent can significantly and the outflow of intestinal contents and the difficulty of nursing, and help to restore enteral nutrition and rehabilitation exercise as soon as possible in EAF patients with open abdomen.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Background: Enterocutaneous fistulas represent a connection between the gastrointestinal tract and adjacent tissues. Among them, there is a subdivision - the enteroatmospheric fistulas, in which the origin is the gastrointestinal tract in connection with the external environment through an open wound in the abdomen. Due to the high output in enterocutaneous fistulas, the loss of fluids, electrolytes, minerals and proteins leads to complications such as sepsis, malnutrition and electrolyte derangements. The parenteral nutrition has its secondary risks, and the fistuloclysis, that consist in the infusion of enteral feeding and also the chyme through the distal fistula, represents an alternative to the management of these patients until the definitive surgical approach. Aim: To evaluate the current evidence on the fistuloclysis technique, its applicability, advantages and disadvantages for patients with high output fistulas. Method: A systematic literature search was conducted in May 2020 with the headings "fistuloclysis", "chyme reinfusion" and "succus entericus reinfusion", in the PubMed, Medline and SciELO databases. Results: There were 29 articles selected for the development of this narrative synthesis, from 2003 to 2020, including reviews and case reports. Conclusion: Fistuloclysis is a safe method which optimizes the clinical, nutritional, and immunological conditions of patients with enteroatmospheric fistulas, increasing the chances of success of the reconstructive procedure. In cases where the definitive repair is not possible, chances of reducing or even stopping the use of nutrition through the parental route are increased, thus representing a promising modality for the management of most challenging cases.


RESUMO Racional: As fístulas enterocutâneas representam uma conexão entre o trato gastrointestinal e os tecidos adjacentes. Dentre elas, há uma subdivisão - as fístulas enteroatmosféricas, em que a origem é o trato gastrointestinal em conexão com o meio externo por meio de uma ferida aberta no abdômen. Devido ao alto débito nas fístulas enterocutâneas, a perda de fluidos, eletrólitos, minerais e proteínas levam a complicações como sepse, desnutrição e desequilíbrios eletrolíticos. A nutrição parenteral tem seus riscos secundários, e a fistuloclise, que consiste na infusão de nutrição enteral e também do quimo pela fístula distal, representa uma alternativa no manejo desses pacientes até a abordagem cirúrgica definitiva. Objetivo: Avaliar as evidências atuais sobre a técnica de fistuloclise, sua aplicabilidade, vantagens e desvantagens para pacientes com fístulas de alto débito. Método: Foi realizada uma busca sistemática da literatura em maio de 2020 com os títulos "fistuloclysis", "chyme reinfusion" e "succus entericus reinfusion", nas bases de dados PubMed, Medline e SciELO. Resultados: Foram selecionados 29 artigos para o desenvolvimento desta síntese narrativa, no período de 2003 a 2020, incluindo revisões e relatos de caso. Conclusão: A fistuloclise é um método seguro que otimiza as condições clínicas, nutricionais e imunológicas dos pacientes com fístulas enteroatmosféricas, aumentando as chances de sucesso do procedimento de reconstrução. Nos casos em que o reparo definitivo não é possível, aumentam as chances de reduzir ou mesmo interromper o uso da nutrição pela via parental, representando uma modalidade promissora para o manejo dos casos mais desafiadores.

ABSTRACT

O íleo biliar representa de 1 a 4% das causas de obstrução mecânica do trato gastrointestinal, causado por um cálculo de origem biliar quando atinge a luz intestinal através de uma fístula bilioentérica. O seu tratamento normalmente é cirúrgico através da enterolitotomia, com ou sem realização de colecistectomia e correção da fístula bilioentérica no mesmo tempo cirúrgico. Relata-se o caso de um paciente de 78 anos com obstrução intestinal ao nível do íleo terminal. Devido ao risco cirúrgico elevado optou-se pela realização de colonoscopia de urgência, que extraiu um cálculo de 2,1cm, impactado na válvula ileocecal. O paciente evoluiu bem após o procedimento, sendo optado pelo tratamento conservador da vesícula biliar e fístula durante o internamento. Conclui-se que pacientes de alto risco se beneficiam com procedimentos menos invasivos, como os endoscópicos, que além de diagnósticos podem ser terapêuticos


The gallstone ileus represents 1 to 4% of the causes of mechanical obstruction from gastrointestinal tract, caused by a gallstone when it reaches the intestinal lumen through a bilioenteric fistula. The treatment is usually the enterolithotomy, with or without cholecystectomy and correction of the bilioenteric fistula at the same surgical time. We report a case of a patient, 78 years old, with intestinal obstruction at the level of the ileocecal valve. The examination showed abdominal distension and pain, with no signs of peritonitis. Due to the surgical risk, a emergency colonoscopy was performed, which removed a 2.1 cm gallstone impacted into the ileocecal valve. The patient evolved well after the procedure and it was chosen the conservative approach to the gallbladder and fistula during the same hospital stay. We conclude that the high-risk patients could benefit from less invasive treatments, such as endoscopy, which can be diagnoses and therapeutic
