RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous radiological jejunostomy (PRJ) and stent placement in patients with malignant small bowel obstructions (MSBO). METHODS: A total of 21 patients (mean age 60 years) with single (n = 4) or multiple (n = 17) MSBO underwent PRJ following jejunopexy. The medical records and imaging studies were retrospectively reviewed to evaluate the technical/clinical success and complications. Clinical success was determined by symptomatic relief and radiologic bowel decompression. RESULTS: PRJ using a 12- or 14-F drainage catheter was technically successful in all patients. Eleven patients required placement of an 18-F nasogastric tube across one (n = 3), two (n = 6) and three (n = 2) obstructions to achieve clinical success. Subsequently, self-expandable stents were placed through the PRJ tracts to recanalise MSBO in four patients. Clinical success was achieved in 18 patients (85.7 %). The median food intake capacity score improved from 4.0 to 2.0 (P = 0.001). There were one major (peritonitis, 4.8 %) and six minor complications (28.6 %) CONCLUSIONS: PRJ using a nasogastric tube across the obstructions is an effective palliative treatment for MSBO. The PRJ tract can be used as an approach route for stent placement to recanalise MSBO. However, dedicated devices should be developed to reduce frequent procedure-related complications. KEY POINTS: • Bowel decompression provides palliative treatment in malignant small bowel obstruction • Percutaneous radiological jejunostomy (PRJ) is a safe and effective palliative treatment. • Long tube placement across obstructions facilitates adequate drainage of multiple bowel obstructions. • PRJ tract can be used for stent placement to approach MSBO recanalisation.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate clinical outcomes of failed pelvic arterial embolization (PAE) and determine predictive factors associated with this failure in the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included all consecutive patients who underwent PAE for life-threatening PPH between March 2004 and January 2011 at a tertiary-care center. Medical records and imaging studies were reviewed to identify cases of failed PAE and their clinical outcomes. Multiple parameters were compared between the failed and successful PAE groups, and multivariate analysis was performed to determine the predictive factors associated with failed PAE. RESULTS: PAE was performed in 257 patients (mean age, 32 y; range, 20-40 y). A total of 24 cases of PAE involved a failure to achieve hemostasis (9.3%). Patients in the failed PAE group experienced more major complications than those in the successful PAE group (37.5% [nine of 24] vs 9.4% [22 of 233]). Factors more frequently found in failed PAE included hemodynamic instability, hemoglobin level lower than 8g/dL, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), and extravasation detected on angiography. After multivariate analysis, DIC emerged as the only significant predictive factor (odds ratio, 6.569; 95% confidence interval, 1.602-26.932; P = .009). CONCLUSIONS: PAE is an effective treatment for medically intractable PPH. However, PAE failed in a high percentage of patients and was commonly associated with major complications. DIC was the only significant predictor of failed PAE.

RESUMO

The present report describes percutaneous drainage involving puncture of a sinus tract in 14 patients with inaccessible postoperative abdominal abscesses. In eight patients, a sinus tract formed by a previously placed surgical drain was percutaneously punctured under ultrasound guidance. In six patients, a sinus tract was accessed under fluoroscopic guidance, aiming at an indwelling surgical drain. A drainage catheter was successfully placed into the abscesses in 13 patients (92.9%). Complete resolution of abscesses was documented on follow-up computed tomography. Percutaneous drainage with puncture of a sinus tract may be a feasible and effective treatment for inaccessible postoperative abdominal abscesses.
