Invasive Approach

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) is the most common vascular malformation of the spinal cord. Traditionally it is treated by the standard muscle-splitting midline approach with bilateral laminectomies extending from one level above to one level below the dAVF. We present a minimally invasive approach for ligation of dAVF with concurrent use of intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) angiography. Minimally invasive watertight dural closure technique is also demonstrated and discussed. The minimally invasive approach with intraoperative ICG results in quicker recovery, early mobilization and shorter hospital stay compared to traditional open approach.The video can be found here: http://youtu.be/mNUeJKLxL3Q.

Aim. To evaluate the reproducibility and safety of the developed pancreatogastric anastomosis with various surgical approaches during pancreatoduodenectomy.Materials and methods. The experience of surgical treatment of 47 patients with malignant tumours of the periampullary zone, who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy, was considered. The proposed variant of anastomose was performed to 14 (29.8%) patients: in 7 cases with a minimally invasive approach to perform pancreatoduodenectomy; and in 7 cases with an open approach. To compare retrospectively 33 (70.2%) patients who underwent pancreatogastric anastomosis according to the Bassi technique: 9 – with minimally invasive surgery, 24 – with open surgery. The frequency of pancreatic fistulas, the number of repeated interferences, and hospital mortality were taken into account.Results. A significant advantage of the new method of forming an anastomosis in the duration of the operation was noted in comparison with the Bassi technique. There were no statistically significant differences in blood loss while various types of anastomoses (p > 0.05). When using the proposed technique, the formation of pancreatic fistulas was not revealed. The development of pancreatic fistula was observed in 4 (16.7%) patients after open surgery and in 7 (77.8%) patients after minimally invasive Bassi anastomose formation. Reoperations were performed after open surgery in 3 (12.5%) cases and in 4 (44.4%) cases of minimally invasive surgery according to the Bassi technique. There were 2 (22.2%) deaths in the minimally invasive group.Conclusion. The proposed pancreatogastric anastomosis is applicable in clinical practice. This method allows to create relatively fast and less challenging anastomosis, including with a minimally invasive approach. The use of this technique makes it possible to reduce mortality and postoperative complications in patients with a “complex” pancreas.

OBJECTIVEHemangioblastomas are benign, highly vascularized tumors that can occur sporadically or as part of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease. Traditionally, spinal hemangioblastomas have been surgically treated via an open approach. In recent years, however, minimally invasive techniques using tubular retractors have been increasingly applied in spine surgery. Such procedures involve less tissue trauma but are also particularly demanding for the surgeon, especially in cases of highly vascular tumors such as hemangioblastomas. The object of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive resection of selected spinal hemangioblastomas.METHODSThe authors conducted a retrospective single-center study of all patients who, between January 2010 and January 2018, had been operated on for spinal hemangioblastoma via a minimally invasive approach performed at the surgeon’s discretion. The surgical technique is described and the pre- and postoperative neurological and imaging results were analyzed descriptively. The primary outcome was the postoperative compared to preoperative neurological condition (McCormick grade). The secondary outcomes were the extent of tumor resection and postoperative complications.RESULTSEighteen patients, 12 female and 6 male, harboring a total of 19 spinal hemangioblastomas underwent surgery in the study period. Seventeen patients had stable neurological findings with stable or improved McCormick grades (94.5%) at a mean of 4.3 months after surgery. One (5.5%) of the 18 patients developed progressive neurological symptoms with a worsened McCormick grade that did not improve in the long-term follow-up. Sixteen of the 18 patients had VHL disease, whereas 2 patients had sporadic spinal hemangioblastomas. In all patients, postoperative MRI showed complete resection of the tumors. No other surgery-related perioperative or postoperative complications were recorded.CONCLUSIONSA minimally invasive approach for the resection of selected spinal hemangioblastomas is safe and allows complete tumor resection with good clinical results in experienced hands.

Abstract Background: The treatment of chronic pancreatitis requires a surgical approach in patients refractory to medical therapy. During surgical treatment, ductal decompression is required, but a pancreatectomy is necessary for some patients, such as those with severe stenosis of the pancreatic duct. Importantly, inadequate procedures lead to recurrent pancreatitis. We used a novel minimally invasive approach for patients with severe stenosis of the pancreatic duct. In this report, we aim to present the feasibility and outcomes of our approach. Methods: We selected a laparoscopic approach for the distal pancreatectomy because these parts are relatively safe and the effect of reducing the length of the wound is substantial. We selected an open approach for parts of the Frey procedure because complete ductal compression has a high risk for injury to the vessels posterior to the pancreas. We examined operative outcomes, postoperative complications and recurrence of pancreatitis.Results: Our approach was performed in three patients from January 2018 to December 2018. No intraoperative complications occurred and the postoperative course was uneventful in all patients. There were no recurrence of pancreatitis and no postoperative pain in all patients in the over two years follow-up. Conclusion: Our hybrid method focusing on complete ductal compression with safety and minimal invasiveness is the optimal approach for the surgical treatment of chronic pancreatitis which requires a pancreatectomy with the Frey procedure.
