Pre-incisional local infiltration with levobupivacaine in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a randomized and clinical trial.

Objective: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), despite its minimally invasive nature, requires effective control of post-operative pain. The use of local anesthetics (LA) has been studied, but the level of evidence is low, and there is little information on important parameters such as health-related quality of life (HRQoL) or return to work. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of 0.

Successful outpatient conservative management of chyle leak after laparoscopic left hemicolectomy.

Chyle leak is a pathological extravasation of chyle into the peritoneal cavity after a surgical injury. It is an uncommon complication in colorectal surgery. In most cases, conservative treatment is effective, although it often entails prolonged hospital stays.

Altered Preoperative Nutritional Status in Colorectal Cancer: A Not So Infrequent Issue.

Introduction: Malnutrition and weight loss in cancer patients is a common problem that affects the prognosis of the disease. In the case of CRC, malnutrition rates range between 30 and 60%.

Objectives: Description of the preoperative nutritional status of patients diagnosed with colorectal neoplasia who will undergo surgery.

Eosinophilic appendicitis due to : a challenging differential diagnosis for clinicians.

A 45-year-old man presents with 48-hour status of high temperature, cough and dyspnoea. In the context of pandemic, the patient is initially diagnosed with COVID-19 syndrome. Later, the laboratory and ultrasound study supported acute appendicitis diagnosis.

Incidence of surgical infection and risk factors in colorectal surgery - A prospective cohort study.

Objective: The objective was to measure the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI) and identify risk factors, in patients undergoing elective surgery of the colon and rectum.

Materials And Methods: A prospective cohort study was performed from January 2017 to December 2018.

Results: A total of 130 patients were studied.

Hemoperitoneum due to splenic injury after colonoscopy-Perhaps not a so uncommon a complication.

We have read with interest in your journal the article "Splenic rupture as an endoscopic complication: as rare as it appears?" and we would like to contribute a case handled in our hospital. We present the case of a 72-year-old male smokerto whom an elective colonoscopy was performed with conscious sedation (midazolam and pethidine). The bowel preparation was appropriate.

Impact of the implementation of a preoperative nutritional program for colorectal surgery patients.

Introduction: generalized hypermetabolism is common in cancer patients and increases the risk of complications when combined with the systemic effects of surgery.

Objective: the aim of this study was to clinically assess the implementation of a Nutritional Assessment and Support Program for patients undergoing colorectal surgery with a diagnosed neoplasia.

Material And Methods: a quasi-experimental study was performed with analyses before and after the implementation of the Nutritional Assessment and Support Program.

Eosinophilic colitis: an infrequent disease with difficult diagnose.

Eosinophilic colitis (EC) is a rare entity. It is part of eosinophilic gastroenteritis, a rare inflammatory disorder characterised by eosinophilic infiltration of tissues that can affect any segment of the digestive tract. The diagnosis is established by the presence of an increased eosinophilic infiltrate in the colon wall in symptomatic patients.
