RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Even though acute appendicitis is the most common general surgical condition encountered during pregnancy, the preferred approach to appendectomy in pregnant patients remains controversial. Current guidelines support laparoscopic appendectomy as the treatment of choice for pregnant women with appendicitis, regardless of trimester. However, recent published data suggests that the laparoscopic approach contributes to higher rates of fetal demise. Our study aims to compare laparoscopic and open appendectomy in pregnancy at a statewide population level. METHODS: ICD-9 codes were used to extract 1006 pregnant patients undergoing appendectomy between 2005 and 2014 from the NY Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) database. Surgical outcomes (any complications, 30-day readmission rate, length of stay (LOS)) and obstetrical outcomes (antepartum hemorrhage, preterm delivery, cesarean section, sepsis, chorioamnionitis) were compared between open and laparoscopic appendectomy. Multivariable generalized linear regression models were used to compare different outcomes between two surgical approaches after adjusting for possible confounders. RESULTS: The laparoscopic cohort (n = 547, 54.4%) had significantly shorter LOS than the open group (median ± IQR: 2.00 ± 2.00 days versus 3.00 ± 2.00 days, p value < 0.0001, ratio = 0.789, 95% CI 0.727-0.856). Patients with complicated appendicitis had longer LOS than those with simple appendicitis (p value < 0.0001, ratio = 1.660, 95% CI 1.501-1.835). Obstetrical outcomes (p value = 0.097, OR 1.254, 95% CI 0.961-1.638), 30-day non-delivery readmission (p value = 0.762, OR 1.117, 95% CI 0.538-2.319), and any complications (p value = 0.753, OR 0.924, 95% CI 0.564-1.517) were not statistically significant between the laparoscopic versus open appendectomy groups. Three cases of fetal demise occurred, all within the laparoscopic appendectomy group. CONCLUSIONS: The laparoscopic approach resulted in a shorter LOS. Although fetal demise only occurred in the laparoscopic group, these results were not significant (p value = 0.255). Our large population-based study further supports current guidelines that laparoscopic appendectomy may offer benefits over open surgery for pregnant patients in any trimester due to reduced time in the hospital and fetal and maternal outcomes comparable to open appendectomy.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Current guidelines support laparoscopic cholecystectomy as the treatment of choice for pregnant women with symptomatic gallbladder disease, regardless of the trimester. Early intervention has remained the standard of care, but recent evidence has challenged this practice in pregnant women. We sought to compare surgical and maternal-fetal outcomes of antepartum versus postpartum cholecystectomy in New York State. METHODS: Between 2005 and 2014, the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) database was queried for patients who underwent cholecystectomy within 3 months before (antepartum cholecystectomy, APCCY: n = 82) and after (postpartum cholecystectomy, PPCCY: n = 5040) childbirth to approximate third-trimester operations. All patients who underwent cholecystectomy during pregnancy (n = 971) were extracted to evaluate inter-trimester differences. Subgroup analysis compared APCCY patients who were not hospitalized within 1 year before APCCY (n = 80) and PPCCY patients who were hospitalized within 1 year before childbirth (n = 29) for symptomatic biliary disease. Multivariable generalized linear regression models were used to characterize the association between timing of cholecystectomy and several primary outcomes: length of stay (LOS), 30-day non-pregnancy, non-delivery readmission (NPND), bile duct injury (BDI), composite maternal outcome (antepartum hemorrhage, preterm delivery, cesarean section), any complications, and fetal demise. RESULTS: Third-trimester APCCY women had longer LOS (Ratio: 1.44, 95% CI [1.26-1.66], p < 0.0001) and greater incidence of preterm delivery (OR 2.54, 95% CI [1.37-4.43], p = 0.0019). Cholecystectomy timing was not independently associated with differences in composite maternal outcome (p = 0.1480), BDI (p = 0.2578), 30-day NPND readmission (p = 0.7579), any complications (p = 0.2506), and fetal demise (2.44% versus 0.44%, p = 0.0545). Subgroup analysis revealed no differences in any of the seven outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: New York Statewide data suggest that although laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe in pregnancy, delay of cholecystectomy should be discussed in the third trimester due to an increased risk for preterm delivery.

RESUMO

The secreted protein desert hedgehog (dhh) controls the formation of the nerve perineurium during development and is a key component of Schwann cells that ensures peripheral nerve survival. We postulated that dhh may play a critical role in maintaining myelination and investigated its role in demyelination-induced compression neuropathies by using a post-natal model of a chronic nerve injury in wildtype and dhh(-/-) mice. We evaluated demyelination using electrophysiological, morphological, and molecular approaches. dhh transcripts and protein are down-regulated early after injury in wild-type mice, suggesting an intimate relationship between the hedgehog pathway and demyelination. In dhh(-/-) mice, nerve injury induced more prominent and severe demyelination relative to their wild-type counterparts, suggesting a protective role of dhh. Alterations in nerve fiber characteristics included significant decreases in nerve conduction velocity, increased myelin debris, and substantial decreases in internodal length. Furthermore, in vitro studies showed that dhh blockade via either adenovirus-mediated (shRNA) or pharmacological inhibition both resulted in severe demyelination, which could be rescued by exogenous Dhh. Exogenous Dhh was protective against this demyelination and maintained myelination at baseline levels in a custom in vitro bioreactor to applied biophysical forces to myelinated DRG/Schwann cell co-cultures. Together, these results demonstrate a pivotal role for dhh in maintaining myelination. Furthermore, dhh signaling reveals a potential target for therapeutic intervention to prevent and treat demyelination of peripheral nerves in compression neuropathies.
