Clinical features and risk factors for colorectal gas explosion during digestive endoscopy and surgery: a systematic review.
Surg Endosc
January 2025
Department of Pathophysiology and Transplantation, University of Milan, Via Francesco Sforza 35, 20122, Milan, Italy.
Background And Aims: Colorectal gas explosion (CGE) is an exceptional but potentially fatal complication of digestive endoscopy or surgery. The role played by bowel preparations and endoscopic or surgical devices in the risk of CGE is still unclear. We conducted a systematic review of the literature to identify risk factors for CGE.

October 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.
Dear Laparoscopic Surgeons: Caution with the Use of Glutaraldehyde!!!
J Indian Assoc Pediatr Surg
August 2024
Department of Paediatric Surgery, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Background: The occupational hazards of glutaraldehyde are well known; the possibility of harm to the patients has been highlighted in the form of isolated reports only.
Objective: To synthesize evidence for contact mucosal injury or injury due to intraperitoneal instillation of glutaraldehyde following its use during laparoendoscopy.
Materials And Methods: The current review is Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) compliant.
Comparing Right-Sided Colon Adenoma and Serrated Polyp Miss Rates With Water Exchange and CO 2 Insufflation: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Am J Gastroenterol
October 2024
Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center, Veterans Affairs Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System, North Hills, California, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Postcolonoscopy colorectal cancers often occur in the right colon due to missed adenomas and serrated polyps, and the study investigates whether water exchange (WE) improves detection rates compared to CO2 insufflation.
- A total of 386 patients were randomly assigned to either WE or CO2 insufflation, with a reexamination by a blind endoscopist to determine the miss rate of adenomas and serrated polyps.
- Results showed that WE significantly reduced the miss rates for serrated polyps and increased the detection of serrated polyps in the right colon, suggesting that WE is a promising alternative to traditional CO2 insufflation in colonoscopy.
Underwater Techniques in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy: Diving into the Depths.
Cancers (Basel)
October 2024
Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Enna "Kore", 94100 Enna, Italy.
The endoscopic resection of gastrointestinal tract lesions embraces different types of techniques, ranging from conventional polypectomy/endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) to the field of third-space endoscopy, including endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), full-thickness resection and peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). Parallelly, the advent of underwater techniques has served as an add-on for both basic and advanced procedures, since its first report in 2012. We aimed to provide a comprehensive update on the state of the art about the feasibility of underwater basic and advanced techniques for GI endoscopy.
