RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: IGB (Intragastric Balloon) is acknowledged to be a safe and secure device, whose outcomes in terms of weight loss are widely discussed. Bariatric community has soon noted tolerance and benefit of this tool, considered a first and easy step before bariatric surgery. Nevertheless, some authors have described a series of complications that, although rare, could be life threatening and hard to manage, as a gastric perforation. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We reported a case of a 55-year-old obese woman, undergone placement of IGB device heisting in a gastric perforation. In the same day of surgery, we performed an emergency, applying a combined endoscopic and laparoscopic approach, to remove the balloon and to close perforation by a gastric resection. DISCUSSION: Short term outcome was satisfactory, and the patient had a successful further follow up and weight loss. CONCLUSION: IGB is a valuable tool among bariatric procedure, nevertheless the surgeon has to consider the possible and life-threatening complications and to provide a multidisciplinary equip to face this occurrence.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe the sonographic (US) appearances of endometriomas developed in the vicinity of a scar from Cesarean section and compare sonographic and clinical characteristics of large (> or =3 cm) scar endometriomas (LSEs) with small scar endometriomas (SSEs). METHOD: Twenty-eight consecutive women (mean age, 31 years; range, 20-42) with 31 scar endometriomas (mean diameter, 2.7 cm; range, 0.7-6 cm) were examined by US, including color Doppler imaging prior to surgery. Clinical and US findings in women with LSE were compared with those of women with SSE. RESULTS: Twelve patients had 12 LSEs with a mean longest diameter of 4.1 cm (range, 3-6 cm); in 1 case, a large nodule was associated with a small lesion. Sixteen women had 18 SSEs with a mean lesion size of 1.8 cm (range, 0.7-2.6 cm).The mean time interval between the last Cesarean section and hospital admission was longer in patients with LSE (66 versus 40 months; p < 0.01) as was the mean duration of symptoms before admission (43 versus 17 months; p < 0.01); in addition, 41.6% of patients with LSE had undergone previous inconclusive diagnostic examinations (CT, MRI, fine needle aspiration, or laparoscopy) compared with 0% in patients with SSE (p < 0.05). LSEs more frequently showed cystic portions and fistulous tracts (p < 0.05), loss of round/oval shape (p < 0.05), and increased vascularity (p < 0.05) than SSEs did. CONCLUSION: LSEs were associated with a delay in diagnosis and some US findings that could result in further diagnostic difficulties.

RESUMO

A case of tubercular peritonitis is illustrated in which the diagnosis is made thanks to the use of diagnostic imaging. Diagnostic certainty, however, can be obtained only by laparoscopy, which provides both a direct view of the lesions and biopsy samples of the peritoneal lesions.
