Adult colocolic intussusception originating in a colonic GIST.

We report the case of an 86-year-old male who was admitted for intestinal subocclusion, in whom an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan and colonoscopy revealed a colocolonic intussusception with an underlying and heterogeneous mass, failing to rule out a neoformative lesion. A left hemicolectomy procedure was carried out with regional lymphadenectomy (because of the potential neoplastic origin) through laparoscopy, and the patient had a favourable postoperative course. Pathology described 45cm of an intestinal segment, with intussusception and with a 12x7x6 cm ulcerated polypoid lesion.

Neoplastic degeneration of chronic sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus: report of seven cases and literature review.

Introduction: Neoplastic degeneration is an uncommon but extremely serious complication of pilonidal sinus (PS) disease. We pretend to determine the factors that influence in the prognosis of the neoplastic disease assessing clinical features and histological findings.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively studied the patients diagnosed of malignization of PS in our institution from 2000 to 2019.

Cyanoacrylate surgical glue for mesh fixation in laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair.

In an attempt to find the ideal surgical technique for mesh fixation during laparoscopic total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair, we evaluate the use of a synthetic surgical glue (N-butyl-cyanoacrylate-Glubran 2) in an effort to reduce postoperative pain and the complications associated with the use of staples. We have prospectively evaluated 61 consecutive patients (73 hernias) with a minimum follow-up period of 18 months and an average of 29.7 months, without any significant complications present.

Parastomal hernia repair: laparoscopic ventral hernia meshplasty with stoma relocation. The current state and a clinical case presentation.

Background: Parastomal hernia is a frequent complication after performing an ostomy, and although different technical options have been described, it lacks an ideal intervention to resolve it. The use of meshes and the laparoscopic approach, has led to a significant advance in resolving this condition. However, the ideal technique should guarantee must ensure integral repair of the abdominal wall, taking into account the functionality of the stoma.

[Laparoscopic treatment of hepatic hydatid cysts: techniques and post-operative complications].

Introduction: We evaluate our experience in the surgical laparoscopic treatment of hepatic hydatid cysts with the same criteria that we use in open surgery.

Material And Methods: A retrospective study of 8 operated patients and their intra- and postoperative complications.

Results: We performed the scheduled surgery on 7 patients; bleeding was the reason for conversion to open surgery in the remaining one.
