- Same-day discharge after cholecystectomy is becoming common in both adults and children, yet there's a gap in teaching models for pediatric procedures; this study aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes using an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol for pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
- Implemented in 2015, the ERAS pathway focused on optimizing various aspects of surgery, such as admission, anesthesia, and postoperative care, with clear guidelines on when day-case surgery was unsuitable due to specific medical conditions.
- Among 33 pediatric patients analyzed from 2015 to 2020, only one intraoperative complication occurred, with 9% needing an overnight stay, while no significant postoperative issues were reported, highlighting
Introduction: Immunoglobulin G4 related disease is a recently recognized systemic fibro-inflammatory disorder affecting virtually every organ in the body, characterized by lympho-plasmacytic dense infiltrates rich in IgG4 positive plasmacytes along with storiform fibrosis, inconstantly associated with elevated serum IgG4 levels. Few cases of Immunoglobulin G4 related disease occurring solely in the stomach have been published.
Presentation Of Case: We herein present a rare case of a 57 year old male patient presenting with an incidentally discovered asymptomatic pre-pyloric submucosal gastric lesion confused with a gastro-intestinal stromal tumor with failed endoscopic biopsy attempts due to tumor mobility.
