Objective: Compare maternal and perinatal outcomes between emergency and electively scheduled cesarean-hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders.

Method: Single-center retrospective cohort study including 125 cases of antenatally suspected and pathologically confirmed PAS disorders. Maternal and perinatal outcomes were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to test associations. Survival curves exploring risk factors for emergency birth were sought.

Results: 25 (20%) and 100 (80%) patients had emergency and electively scheduled birth, respectively. Emergency birth had a higher estimated blood loss (2772 [2256.75] vs. 1561.19 [1152.95], P < 0.001), with a higher rate of coagulopathy (40% vs. 6%; P < 0.001) and bladder injury (44% vs. 13%; P < 0.001); and was associated with increased rates of blood transfusion (aOR 4.9, CI95% 1.3-17.5, P = 0.01), coagulopathy (aOR 16.4, CI95% 2.6-101.4, P = 0.002) and urinary tract injury (aOR 6.96, CI95% 1.5-30.7, P = 0.01). Gestational age at birth was lower in the emergency group (31.55 [4.75] vs. 35.19 [2.77], P = 0.001), no difference in perinatal mortality was found. A sonographically short cervix and/or history of APH had an increased cumulative risk of emergency birth with advancing gestational age.

Conclusion: Patients with PAS disorders managed in a tertiary center by a multidisciplinary team requiring emergency birth have increased maternal morbidity and poorer perinatal outcomes than those with electively scheduled birth.

Effects of Neuraxial or General Anesthesia on the Incidence of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Peripheral Vascular Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth

December 2024

Programa de Pós-graduação em Ciências Pneumológicas, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil.

Objectives: Postoperative complications after major surgery, especially in vascular procedures, are associated with a significant increase in costs and mortality. Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) have a notable impact on morbidity and mortality. The primary aim of this present study was to evaluate the effects of spinal anesthesia compared with general anesthesia on the incidence of PPCs in patients undergoing lower extremity bypass surgery.

Laparoscopic surgery for gallstone ileus.

BMJ Case Rep

January 2025

Department of General Surgery, Ealing Hospital, London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust, London, UK.

We present a case of a woman in her 70s who arrived in the emergency department with signs of small-bowel obstruction. CT scanning revealed acute cholecystitis with a cholecystoduodenal fistula, pneumobilia and small-bowel obstruction possibly secondary to gallstone ileus although no radio-opaque gallstones were seen. The patient underwent an emergency operation and intra-operative findings revealed mechanical small-bowel obstruction of the proximal jejunum where a 4×2 x 3 cm gallstone was impacted.

Background: While evidence from preclinical and observational cohort studies have suggested potential disparities in tumour behaviour associated with the choice of intra-operative anaesthetics, clinical evidence of tumour recurrence and metastasis remains inconclusive. We aimed to compare the impact of intra-operative anaesthesia on oncologic outcomes following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Methods: Adult patients scheduled for elective hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma were assigned randomly (1:1) to either propofol-based total intravenous anaesthesia or sevoflurane-based inhalational anaesthesia.
