RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Despite improved surgical techniques and materials, anastomotic leakage is a big problem for surgeons. The most frequently used laboratory parameters is leukocyte (white blood cell) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Availability of plasma calprotectin with CRP to detect anastomotic leakage was studied. METHODS: In this prospective study of 41 (male/female 18/23) patients in the anastomosis group, 30 (male/female 20/10) patients were included in the control group. The anastomosis groups viewed in preoperatively day and postoperatively 1st, 3rd, and 5th day of CRP, white blood cell, and plasma calprotectin values. RESULTS: Anastomosis group with complications and without complications were studied. Statistically significant similarities between plasma calprotectin and CRP levels in the postoperative period were observed. CONCLUSION: Plasma calprotectin in monitoring the integrity of the anastomosis can be used with a marker CRP.

Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is characterized by intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) which affects all body systems. In healthy individuals, normal intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) is <5 to 7 mmHg. The upper limit of IAP is generally accepted to be 12 mmHg. ACS has been classified into primary, secondary, and tertiary subtypes. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a rare reason for ACS. We report here one case of NHL as a primary retroperitoneal mass in an 80-year-old male patient who presented with IAH.
