Background: Different techniques of pancreatic anastomosis have been described, with inconclusive results in terms of pancreatic fistula reduction. Studies comparing robotic pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) and pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) are scarcely reported. Methods: The present study analyzes the outcomes of two case-matched groups of patients who underwent PG (n = 20) or PJ (n = 40) after pancreaticoduodenectomy. The primary aim was to compare the rate of post-operative pancreatic fistula. Results: Operative time (375 vs. 315 min, p = 0.34), estimated blood loss (270 vs. 295 mL, p = 0.44), and rate of clinically relevant post-operative pancreatic fistula (12.5% vs. 10%, p = 0.82) were similar between the two groups. PJ was associated with a higher rate of intra-abdominal collections (7.5% vs. 0%, p = 0.002), but lower post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (2.5% vs. 10%, p = 0.003). PG was associated with a lower rate of post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (33.3% vs. 50%, p = 0.003) in the high-risk group of patients. Conclusions: The outcomes of post-operative pancreatic fistula are comparable between the two reconstruction techniques. PG may have a lower incidence of POPF in patients with high-risk of pancreatic fistula.

Background The aim of this study is to examine whether pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) or pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) is the better reconstructive method to reduce postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) according to the fistula risk. Methods An institutional database was reviewed for patients undergoing PD between January 2008 and August 2019. A total of 159 patients were stratified into 4 groups according to the Clinical Risk Score-Pancreatic Fistula. POPF according to 4 risk groups was compared between PJ and PG. Results Of the 159 patients, 82 underwent PG (51.6%) and 77 underwent PJ (48.4%) reconstruction. POPF rate was 17.1% (n = 14) in the PG group and 12.9% (n = 10) in the PJ group (P = 0.51). POPF rates were not different in intermediate, low, and negligible risks between 2 reconstructive methods. In the high-risk group (n = 47), there were 4 POPFs (22.2%) in PJ group and 9 (31.0%) in the PG group, respectively (P = 0.74). Conclusion In PD, there was no superior method of reconstruction with regard to POPF, even in high-risk glands.

Stage Analysis

Massive hemorrhage and hemorrhagic shock as main causes of deaths in pregnancy, occupy up to 25% in the structure of mortality rate in obstetrics. In the past decade, the decline in the share of deaths of mothers has occurred due to postpartum bleedings and bleedings in detachment or placenta previa. The aim of the study was to determine the frequency and structure of massive bleedings in a high-risk group obstetric hospital. Methods. A retrospective descriptive cohort study was executed in 2 stages: at the 1st stage - a study of 396 deliveries histories with main nosological forms leading to possible pathological hemorrhage, in the II stage - analysis of 55 cases of massive blood loss. The object of the study was puerperas with placenta previa; puerperas with deliveries complicated by hypotonic bleeding or premature detachment of the placenta; puerperas with the massive blood loss. Duration of the study: from 01.01.2011 to 31.12. 2015. Results. The most frequent nosological form leading to abnormal blood loss is premature placental abruption. The frequency of cases of massive blood loss (more than 1000 ml) is 0.28% of the total number of deliveries and is more common in primigravidae (56.4%), mainly during surgical delivery (88%). Out of all massive bleedings, 45.5% are due to uterine hypotension. Amputation of the uterus was performed in 18.2% of the number of all cases of the massive hemorrhage. Conclusion. The high prevalence rate of the premature detachment of the placenta is explained by the uncontrollability of this pathology, in contrast to hypotonic bleeding in the postpartum period. The organ-preserving management in massive obstetric hemorrhages is not widely used.

Robotic Pancreaticoduodenectomy

Abstract Background Robot assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy has increased in popularity over recent years. There is evidence from high volume centers which suggests that it is associated with lower risk of post-operative pancreatic fistula than open surgery. The aims of this study were to evaluate our initial experience after robotic assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy and compare if a low volume center can produce similar positive outcomes. Methods The initial 12 patients who were listed for a robot assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy were included in the study in a consecutive manner. A standardised method of anastomosis was used in all surgeries, this being a duct-to-mucosa two-layer modified Blumgart pancreato-jejunostomy. Data was collected prospectively and stored in an encrypted database. Surgical outcomes were then analysed. Results The study included first 12 consecutive patients who underwent robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy between August 2019 and January 2020. None of the patients had clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula despite 75% of the patients falling into moderate to high-risk group for fistula development. Median operative time and length of stay was 547 minutes and 8 days respectively with three  Clavien Dindo grade III complications and three Clavien-Dindo grade II complications. Conclusions Robotic assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy maybe associated with lower risk of post-operative pancreatic fistula in high-risk cases.

Abstract Purpose: To compare the trifecta outcome and perioperative and postoperative outcomes among open partial nephrectomy (OPN), laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN), and robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in patients with small renal masses in Ramathibodi Hospital.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 141 patients who underwent partial nephrectomy from January 2009 to December 2018. The baseline characteristics and preoperative outcomes were compared among the three surgical approaches. Results: Among the 141 patients, 42 (29.79%), 29 (20.57%), and 70 (49.64%) patients underwent OPN, LPN, and RAPN, respectively. Among 116 patients with available data, 71 achieved the trifecta outcome [18 (56.25%), 14 (56.00%), and 39 (73.58%) in the OPN, LPN, and RAPN group, respectively; p=0.276]. The rate of conversion to OPN was higher in the LPN than RAPN group. The number of patients who received intraoperative packed red cells was lowest in the RAPN group. The estimated blood loss was significantly lower in the LPN group than OPN and RAPN groups (p=0.041). The operative time was shorter in the OPN group than LPN and RAPN groups (p<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that the intraoperative complication rate was a predictive factor for trifecta outcome achievement.Conclusion: OPN had the shortest operative time. LPN had the highest rate of conversion to OPN and lowest estimated blood loss. The number of patients who received intraoperative packed red cells was lowest in the RAPN group. However, achievement of the trifecta outcome was not significantly different among the three groups. The predictive factor for trifecta outcome achievement was the intraoperative complication rate.

Abstract Background/Objective To estimate the effectiveness of uterine massage UM in reducing blood loss before delivery of placenta in CS. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of 1393 women who delivered with CS. Patients who underwent UM (671women) were compared with those who underwent controlled cord traction (722 women). According to risk assessment of PPH, 2 groups were both divided to low risk group and high risk group. Outcomes included blood loss amount within 2 h after delivery, incidence of PPH and intractable PPH. Results Blood loss amount within 2 h was lower in UM group than CCT group(516.6±196.5 ml compared with 674.1±272.2 ml, P<0.01). The incidence of PPH and intractable PPH didn’t differ significantly between the 2 groups (6.7% compared with 9.1%, P=0.09 and 3.9% compared with 5.3%, P=0.22,respectively).In high risk group, the amount of blood loss within 2 h and the incidence of PPH were both lower in UM group (n=382) than CCT group (n=407) (576.8±228.1 ml compared with 854.9±346.1 ml, P<0.01 and 7.1% compared with 11.3%,P=0.04 ,respectively). The incidence of intractable PPH didn’t differ significantly between the 2 groups (4.7% compared with 6.9%,P=0.19). In low risk group, the 3 outcomes didn’t differ significantly between the 2 groups(n=289 vs. 315) (428.5±172.6 ml compared with 447.9±180.5 ml; 6.2% compared with 6.3%; 2.8% compared with 3.2%; P=0.56, 0.95 and 0.77,respectively). Conclusion In high risk patients of PPH, UM before delivery of placenta contributed to reduce blood loss in CS.
