RESUMO

BACKGROUND Obstructive jaundice is a serious, life-threatening condition that can lead to death as a result of sepsis and multiorgan failure due to bacterial translocation. Treatment should be started as soon as possible after diagnosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty 24-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats, with an average weight of 250 g to 300 g, were included in this study. The rats were randomly placed into five groups, each group consisted of eight rats. The sham group underwent only common bile duct (CBD) dissection and no ligation was performed. CBD ligation was applied to the other groups. After the operation, one CBD group was fed with rat chow only, the others were fed with rat chow supplemented with honey, or immunonutrients, or honey plus immunonutrients. After 10 to 12 days, all rats were sacrificed; blood and tissue samples were collected for biochemical, microbiological, and histopathological evaluation. RESULTS In the groups that were fed with honey and immunonutrients, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were decreased significantly compared to the other groups. Statistically significant differences were detected in terms of bacterial translocation (BT) rates among liver and spleen samples, and laboratory values of serum, except for MLNs of the BDL+HI group, when compared to other groups. We found mean mucosal thickness of ileum samples have been improved notably in the BDL+HI group compared to the other groups, especially compared to the C/BDL group. CONCLUSIONS Immunonutrition applied with honey had immunostimulant effects, decreased BT due to an additive effect, and had positive effects on intestinal mucosa.

RESUMO

The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of curcumin on liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats. A total of 24 male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups: sham-operated (SH), PH, and PH + curcumin; each group contains eight animals. The rats in curcumin-treated groups were given curcumin (in a dose of 100 mg/kg body weight) once a day orally for 7 days, starting 3 days prior to hepatectomy operation. At 7 days after resection, liver samples were collected. The malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH) levels were estimated in liver homogenates. Moreover, histopathological examination, mitotic index (MI), proliferating cell nuclear antigen labeling, proliferation index (PI), transferase-mediated 2'-deoxyuridine, 5'-triphosphate nick end-labeling assay, and apoptotic index (AI) were evaluated at 7 days after hepatectomy. As a result, curcumin significantly increased MI and PI and significantly decreased AI in PH rats. Additionally, curcumin remarkably inhibited MDA elevation, restored impaired antioxidant SOD activity and GSH level and also attenuated hepatic vacuolar degeneration and sinusoidal congestion. These results suggested that curcumin treatment had a beneficial effect on liver regenerative capacity of the remnant liver tissue after hepatectomy, probably due to its antioxidative, antiapoptotic, and proliferative properties.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bacterial Translocation is believed to be an important factor on mortality and morbidity in Obstructive Jaundiced. AIMS: We investigated the probable or estimated positive effects of tauroursodeoxycholic acid, which has antibacterial and regulatory effects on intestinal flora, together with glutamine on BT in an experimental obstructive jaundiced rat model. STUDY DESIGN: Animal experimentation. METHODS: Forty adult, male, Sprague Dawley rats were used in this study. Animals were randomised and divided into five groups of eight each: sham (Sh); control (common bile duct ligation, CBDL); and supplementation groups administered tauroursodeoxycholic acid (CBDL+T), glutamine (CBDL+G), or tauroursodeoxycholic acid plus glutamine (CBDL+TG). Blood and liver, spleen, MLN, and ileal samples were taken via laparotomy under sterile conditions for investigation of bacterial translocation and intestinal mucosal integrity and hepatic function tests on the tenth postoperative day. RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences in BT rates in all samples except the spleen of the CBDL+TG group compared with the CBDL group (p=0.041, p=0.026, and p=0.041, respectively). CONCLUSION: It is essential to protect hepatic functions besides maintaining intestinal mucosal integrity in the active struggle against BT occurring in obstructive jaundice. The positive effect on intestinal mucosal integrity can be increased if glutamine is used with tauroursodeoxycholic acid, which also has hepatoprotective and immunomodulatory features.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to examine the preventive and therapeutic effects of thymoquinone (TQ) against cholestatic oxidative stress and liver damage in common bile duct ligated rats. A total of 24 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, bile duct ligation (BDL) and BDL + received TQ; each group contain 8 animals. The rats in TQ treated groups were given TQ (50 mg/kg body weight) once a day orally for 2 weeks starting 3 days prior to BDL operation. To date, no more biochemical and histopathological changes on common bile duct ligated rats by TQ treatment have been reported. The application of BDL clearly increased the tissue hydroxyproline (HP) content, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and decreased the antioxidant enzyme [superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx)] activities. TQ treatment significantly decreased the elevated tissue HP content, and MDA levels and raised the reduced of SOD, and GPx enzymes in the tissues. The changes demonstrating the bile duct proliferation and fibrosis in expanded portal tracts include the extension of proliferated bile ducts into lobules, mononuclear cells, and neutrophil infiltration into the widened portal areas were observed in BDL group. Treatment of BDL with TQ attenuated alterations in liver histology. The immunopositivity of alpha smooth muscle actin and proliferating cell nuclear antigen in BDL were observed to be reduced with the TQ treatment. The present study demonstrates that oral administration of TQ in bile duct ligated rats maintained antioxidant defenses and reduces liver oxidative damage and ductular proliferation. This effect of TQ may be useful in the preservation of liver function in cholestasis.

RESUMO

Acute pancreatitis is still one of the challenging issues in general surgical practice in terms of diagnosis, management and follow-up. CT evaluation of the patients with acute pancreatitis gained popularity in order to document necrosis within the pancreatic tissue which is one of the most important factor linked to the morbidity and even mortality of the disease. Recent studies evidenced that agents used for CT evaluation might also contribute to pancreatic inflammation and cause necrosis. Recently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with gadolinium has been speculated as a safer mean of providing optimum imaging of the pancreas than contrast enhanced CT. In this article we report an unusual case of acute pancreatitis which might have been initiated and/or worsened by gadolinium.

RESUMO

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the preferred treatment of symptomatic gallstone disease. Biliary injury during LC is still a serious problem. Knowledge of anatomic detail is important for not encountering the injury. Magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRC) is a noninvasive method for imaging the biliary ducts. However, MRC has many drawbacks such as not showing anatomic structures in detail and respiratory motion. In this study, contrast-enhanced MRC is used to show cystic ducts that are not seen by MRC. Reasons for patient referral for MRC and contrast-enhanced MRC included suspicion of cholecystolithiasis, adenomyomatosis, and gallbladder polyp. Our results show that routine MRC revealed cystic ducts in 38 patients (77.5%) and contrast-enhanced MRC in 46 patients (93.8%). Intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) was taken as gold standard for all patients. We found that contrast-enhanced MRC can provide a useful supplement to MRC in patients with nonvisualized cystic ducts by MRC. To our knowledge, this is the first study of visualization of cystic duct in patients undergoing LC depicted by both MRC and contrast-enhanced MRC.

RESUMO

Total rectal prolapse is a disorder frequently associated with constipation and anal incontinence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of the complications, pain management, hospital stay, constipation, and anal functions of the patients undergoing 2 types of laparoscopic surgical approaches. In this study, 33 patients underwent either laparoscopic rectopexy or hand-assisted laparoscopic resection rectopexy. Preoperative colonic transit time, defecation, postoperative pain scoring, pre-postoperative evaluation of the anal function, and the changes in constipation and relating symptoms were assessed. Postoperative evaluation had been performed at the sixth week and the twelfth month. Median operation time was 137 minutes for rectopexy and 230 minutes for resection rectopexy group. Median postoperative hospital stay was 3 days for patients with rectopexy and 7 days for patients with resection rectopexy. Patients needed painkillers in short postoperative period for pain management in both groups. Continence was improved in 11 of 13 patients (84.6%) in a year after laparoscopic surgery. In 15 patients (45.5%), preoperative constipation either remained in the same or became worse in 7 (21.1%) in a year after surgery. No patient developed recurrence in the median follow-up period, which was about 15 months. Laparoscopic rectopexy and resection rectopexy in the young aged patients working the Army are carried out with less morbidity rate. We eliminated the total prolapse and cure incontinence in almost all patients. In addition to constipation was reduced by laparoscopic surgical approaches in a short time hospitalization with short time painkiller need.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to evaluate the results of treatment for ano-rectal gunshot injuries in civilian population, caused by low-velocity bullets. METHODS: Nine patients with ano-rectal gunshot injuries were admitted to the emergency department. All the patients were males, with a mean age of 23 years (range 20 to 37 years) and presented within the first two hours following injury. Complete physical and abdominal examinations were performed and injury severity scores (ISS) were calculated. Injuries were evaluated by rectosigmoidoscopy in the operating room. Seven patients had associated tissue or organ injuries including bladder disruption, pelvic bone fractures, and wide muscular defects. Surgical procedures included a diverting ostomy, irrigation of distal rectum, presacral drainage (6 patients), and retrorectal drainage through the abdomen (3 patients). Antibiotic prophylaxis was routinely administered. Control examinations were made at the end of the second month. RESULTS: Seven patients had rectal blood discharge on admission. The mean ISS score was 7.3+/-3.7, with only one patient having an ISS of 15. Early postoperative complications were urinary infection in three patients, wound dehiscence in five patients, and osteomyelitis in one patient. Anal continence was not adversely influenced after surgery. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that a diverting ostomy, distal rectal irrigation, and presacral drainage yields favorable outcome in patients with ano-rectal gunshot injuries.

RESUMO

Appendiceal mucocele is a rare clinical condition that causes distension of the appendix lumen with mucus. A seventy-three-year-old female patient presented with complaints of abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Abdominal examination revealed mild tenderness, right lower quadrant pain upon palpation, rebound tenderness and muscular rigidity, and a palpable mass. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography scans demonstrated a cystic lesion in the right iliac fossa, adherent to the cecum, suggesting an abdominal abscess. An emergency operation was performed, during which a diagnosis of a mucocele of the appendix was made. Surgical treatment included appendicectomy, partial resection of the ileum, and resection of the cecum. Histopathologic examination confirmed the operative diagnosis. The role of imaging and clinical approach is emphasized in the treatment of an appendiceal mucocele, especially in emergency settings.

RESUMO

Tamoxifen is being used successfully in breast cancer patients as adjuvant hormonal therapy. The aim of this retrospective cohort study is to evaluate the impact of tamoxifen on gallstone formation in postmenopausal breast cancer patients. A total of 3165 patients who were treated for invasive breast cancer between 1990 and 1997 were reviewed. The data were collected from four university hospitals in a population-based registry. Among these patients, 2462 were excluded from the study owing to improper follow-up and other reasons. Premenopausal patients were also excluded. Of the 703 patients included in the study, 457 had received adjuvant therapy including tamoxifen, and the other 246 had not. Gallstone formation was assessed by annual abdominal ultrasonography. The mean follow-up period was 4.6 years (range 1-7 years). There were no significant differences between the groups of breast cancer patients treated with or without tamoxifen regarding the age of the patients at the time of breast cancer diagnosis, the age at menopause, the duration between the onset of menopause and the time the breast cancer was diagnosed, the presence of diabetes, and the body mass index. At the end of 5 years the incidence of gallstone formation in tamoxifen-treated patients was 37.4%, whereas it was 2.0% in patients who did not receive tamoxifen ( p < 0.0001). The incidences of gallstones being detected in 171 tamoxifen-treated patients were 0.4%, 3.7%, 24.4%, 33.1%, and 37.4% cumulatively during the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth years, respectively. Hence adjuvant tamoxifen therapy leads to gallstone formation in postmenopausal breast cancer patients and is most apparent after 3 years of treatment.

RESUMO

The Nissen fundoplication is the most popular laparoscopic operation performed for the surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). However, for patients in whom esophageal peristalsis is documented to be weak preoperatively, use of a partial wrap, or Toupet procedure, has often been used as an alternative to lessen the potential for postoperative dysphagia. Recent reports have criticized the Toupet procedure as having a higher long-term failure rate than the Nissen approach, especially for patients with severe forms of GERD. We reviewed our experience performing laparoscopic antireflux surgery over a 7-year period and compared the results of patients undergoing laparoscopic Nissen versus Toupet procedures. All procedures were performed at our institution by a single surgeon. Data recorded included preoperative demographic data, preoperative disease parameters, perioperative data, postoperative course, and symptom scores. Follow-up was based on a combination of medical records and phone interviews. There were 142 patients with complete records allowing review for this study. Of these, 118 underwent 122 Nissen fundoplications and 26 underwent 27 Toupet fundoplications. Selection of the procedure was based on preoperative manometric studies. There were seven reoperations. Seven of the patients (28%) who underwent Toupet procedures had severe GERD, a percentage comparable to the Nissen group (31.6%). Preoperative parameters were comparable for both groups, although the Toupet patients had lower average preoperative LES pressures (9.79 mmHg) than did the Nissen patients (16.1 mmHg, P < 0.05). The operative duration, operative blood loss, morbidity, length of hospitalization, need for reoperation, and efficacy in terms of relieving symptoms (average follow-up = 27.5 months) were comparable for both groups. Based on this experience, the Toupet procedure seems safe and effective in treating the symptoms of GERD, including patients with severe forms of the disease. We recommend its selective use in patients with preoperative esophageal hypomotility who are undergoing laparoscopic antireflux surgery.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Flexible upper endoscopy (FUE) is an important diagnostic and therapeutic tool in the management of upper gastrointestinal diseases. We examined the role of FUE in the management of patients undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP). METHODS: All patients undergoing RYGBP at a single institution from 1986 to 2001 were studied. Preoperative FUE was performed by the surgeon to assess the anatomy of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Since 1997, gastric biopsies were obtained, testing for the presence of H. pylori. Colonized patients were treated preoperatively. Postoperatively, FUE was performed by the surgeon as indicated clinically, for management of symptoms suggesting anastomotic stenosis, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, inflammation, or ulcers. Endoscopic balloon dilatation was performed as indicated. RESULTS: 560 patients underwent RYGBP during the study period. Of these, 536 underwent preoperative FUE. Endoscopic findings changed or altered the operative procedure in 26 patients (4.9%). Preoperative testing for H. pylori was performed on 206 patients, of whom 62 (30.1%) were positive. Patients tested for H. pylori had a lower incidence of postoperative marginal ulcers (n = 5, 2.4%) than did patients who did not undergo such screening (n = 354, 6.8%, P < 0.05). Postoperatively, 54 patients underwent 80 endoscopic balloon dilatations for stenosis of the gastrojejunostomy. In addition, 18 patients underwent 28 FUEs that proved negative for such stenosis. In addition, 64 patients underwent 88 additional diagnostic or therapeutic FUEs in the postoperative period, including investigation of symptoms of pain, bleeding, persistent vomiting, or weight regain. CONCLUSION: Upper endoscopy is a tool which may be used by the surgeon in the preoperative and postoperative management of patients undergoing RYGBP to modify therapy, improve outcomes, and diagnose and treat postoperative complications.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to demonstrate bacterial translocation after experimentally induced intestinal obstruction as well as investigate the preventive effects of hyperbaric oxygen on obstruction-induced bacterial translocation in rats. METHODS: Forty Wistar-albino male and female rats were used. Although no procedure was done in the control group (n = 8), hyperbaric oxygen treatment under 2.5 atm absolute for 90 minutes daily was applied for two days in the hyperbaric oxygen group (n = 8). In the sham group (n = 8), after laparotomy the small bowel was only handled gently, and tissue sampling was done 48 hours later. In the obstruction group (n = 8) the ileum was ligated by 5-0 polypropylene just 5 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve. In the obstruction and hyperbaric oxygen group (n = 8), after obstruction hyperbaric oxygen treatment was applied. Forty-eight hours after the procedures, tissue samples from small bowel, mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, and liver were taken and 1 ml of blood from the portal vein was withdrawn. All samples were cultured for microbiologic examination. RESULTS: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment significantly reduced the endogenous bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine of normal rats. Endogenous bacteria in the small intestine were significantly increased in the obstruction group, and the presence of bacterial overgrowth was proven by bacterial presence on mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and blood. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment significantly reduced the endogenous bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine and prevented the bacterial translocation almost completely in obstruction-induced rats. CONCLUSIONS: Intestinal obstruction causes bacterial overgrowth and translocation. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment prevents the bacterial translocation effectively.

RESUMO

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) on intestinal microflora and bacterial translocation (BT) caused by experimentally induced thermal injury in rats. Rats were separated into four groups, namely, HBO2 group, thermal injury (TI) group, TI + HBO2 group, and control group. All groups were further separated into short-term (2 days) and long-term (7 days) treatment or injury groups. Control group was neither exposed to thermal injury nor was given any treatment. Thirty percent second-degree thermal burn was induced on the dorsal body part of the rats in TI groups. In the HBO2 groups, rats received HBO2 treatment either without TI or following TI induction, for 2 and 7 days, respectively. Sampling from tissues and portal vein was performed on day 3 in the short-term groups and on day 8 in the long-term groups. Samples were cultured for identification of bacteria and colony counts. HBO2 treatment significantly reduced the colony counts of endogenous microflora in distal ileum of healthy rats (p < .05), while TI significantly increased the colony counts of endogenous microflora in distal ileum in short and long-term TI groups (p < .05). Presence of bacterial translocation was proven by bacterial isolation in mesenteric lymph nodes, liver, spleen and blood. Both short- and long-term HBO2 treatment following TI significantly reduced the colony counts of intestinal microflora (p < .05) and prevented bacterial translocation almost completely. It is concluded that thermal injury causes both bacterial overgrowth within intestinal lumen and bacterial translocation across the intestinal wall. HBO2 administration prevents both bacterial overgrowth and translocation.
