Laboratory tests have low diagnostic specificity for strangulated intestinal obstruction. The diagnostic potential of the intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) expressed in the tips of the intestinal villi continues to be explored. The number of white blood cells, blood plasma levels of L-lactate, C-reactive protein (CRP) and I-FABP were measured in rats with experimentally induced 12-h strangulated and non-strangulated intestinal obstruction.

Endoscopic TAR (eTAR) that gets all the benefits of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) gives a possibility to enhance results of the treatment. The aim of our study was to make the comparison between open and endoscopic TAR procedures with an emphasis on frequency and severity of postoperative complications in comparable groups.

Material And Methods: The study included 111 patients who have undergone pancreatoduodenectomy between January 2014 and December 2019. Patients were divided into 2 groups: perioperative ERAS protocol (85 patients) and traditional treatment (26 patients).
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is a common surgical procedure in acute cholecystitis (AC). Patients often suffer from considerable postoperative pain and indigestion, which prolongs in-hospital stay. The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program has proven its efficacy in elective surgery and could hypothetically improve outcomes of emergency LC.
