Pancreaticogastrostomy versus Pancreaticojejunostomy and the Proposal of a New Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula Risk Score.

Despite the substantial decrease in mortality rates following a pancreaticoduodenectomy to less than 5%, morbidity rates remain significant, reaching even 73%. Postoperative pancreatic fistula is one of the most frequent major complications and is significantly associated with other complications, including patient death. Currently, there is no consensus regarding the ideal type of pancreatic anastomosis, as the question of the choice between a pancreaticogastrostomy and pancreaticojejunostomy is still open.

Severe Bleeding Complications Resulting in Death Following Anticoagulant Treatment in COVID-19 Surgical Patients.

Microthrombi formation in the pulmonary circulation is one of the main pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the unfavorable respiratory evolution of CoViD-19 patients. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) anticoagulant therapy is a major pillar of treatment. But sometimes LMWH causes severe complications that can result in death.

Experience of the Colentina Clinical Hospital Surgery Clinic in the Treatment of COVID-19 Patients Hospitalised in the Period March - August 2020.

SARS-CoV-2 is a Betacoronavirus belonging to the Sarbecovirus subgenus of the Coronavidae family, antigenically distinct from SARS CoV, with which it has a genetic similarity of about 76% of nucleotides (1). It causes the Covid-19 disease in humans, which mainly affects the respiratory system, through inflammatory and procoagulant mechanisms at the level of alveolar microcirculation. Material and method: There are 145 patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, treated in the Colentina Surgery Clinic during March-August 2020, whose cases were analysed to identify some elements that would help to improve the medical management of these patients from multiple perspectives.

Hepatic hydatid cyst - diagnose and treatment algorithm.

the hydatic disease, caused by the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus, is a serious disease, potentially lethal, which can be found anywhere in the world, but especially in endemic areas such as the Mediterranean Basin, Australia, New Zealand, North Africa, Eastern Europe, the Balkans, Middle East and South America. The hydatic cyst is mainly found in the liver (75% of the cases), being asymptomatic in most cases and discovered accidentally on a routine abdominal ultrasound or an ultrasound performed for diagnosing other pathologies. The hepatic hydatid cyst therapy is multimodal, including medical, surgical, and, lately, minimally invasive techniques.
