Unlabelled: One of the key issues in successful pancreas transplantation is uncomplicated drainage of pancreas exocrine secretion.
Objective: The aim of the study is to present results of side-to-side high duodeno-jejunal anastomosis as routine method of enteric drainage in simultaneous pancreas kidney transplantation (SPK).
Methods: 30 diabetic patients underwent SPK at the Department of Surgery, Ruhr University Bochum in 2001. The pancreas was drained using a portion of duodenal segment anastomosed to the first loop of jejunum about 20-40 cm distal to the Treitz ligament.
Results: Early relaparotomy was required in 20% patients. The mean time of first relaparotomy was 5.5 (range 1-11) days after transplantation. In 10% of cases graft pancreatectomy was necessary. Perioperative mortality was 3.3%. Currently 83.3% patients are insulin-free and 86.6% patients are free of dialysis.
Conclusions: These data suggest, that side-to-side high duodeno-jejunal anastomosis is a safe method of drainage of pancreas exocrine secretion in SPK.

Bariatric interventions have shown the best therapeutic benefits in individuals with obesity. They can be classified into surgical procedures (bariatric/metabolic surgery) and endoscopic procedures. Common surgical procedures include sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, bilio-pancreatic diversion with or without duodenal switch and Stomach Intestinal Pylorus Sparing Surgery.

Duodenal stenosis is a condition that can be related to several diseases, being either intrinsic, such as neoplasm and inflammatory stenosis, or extrinsic, such as pancreatic pseudocyst, superior mesenteric artery syndrome, and foreign bodies. Current treatments range from endoscopic approaches, such as endoscopic resection and stent placement, to surgical approaches, including duodenal resection, pancreaticoduodenectomy, and gastrointestinal bypass. Minimally invasive robot-assisted surgery is gaining importance due to its potential to decrease surgical stress, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative pain, while its instruments and 3D-vision facilitate fine dissection and intra-abdominal suturing, all leading to a reduced time to functional recovery and shorter hospital stay.

may cause serious vascular and graft infections. In the present case report, a 71-year-old man underwent partial prosthetic endograft replacement due to high-flow endoleak and limb occlusion. Following surgery, a multiple empiric antibiotic regime was initiated due to fever, malaise, abdominal tenderness and signs of an acute abdomen; however, in spite of this, the clinical condition of the patient worsened.

Introduction And Importance: Bouveret syndrome is a rare condition characterised by gastric outlet obstruction secondary to a gallstone fistulating into the proximal duodenum or pylorus. Although rare, this condition carries a high mortality rate and no current standardised guidelines for management.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a patient in their 60s with recurrent small bowel obstruction secondary to a cholecysto-duodenal fistula and large gallstone which became impacted in the fourth part of the duodenum.

Background: Endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) are procedures that utilize instruments that require flexible endoscopy or placement of devices for inducing weight loss. We perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate four modalities - intragastric balloon (IGB), endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), duodeno-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL), and duodenal mucosa resurfacing (DMR), for their efficacy and safety on weight loss, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and metabolic syndrome.
