Ectopic Liver

Introduction. Ectopic liver is a rare finding (Corsy, 1922; Kubota et al., 2007) that is usually discovered intraoperatively or during an autopsy (Bassis and Izenstark, 1956). Preoperative diagnosis of ectopic liver is also uncommon. The most common site of ectopic liver is on the gall bladder, although there are reports of other sites such as the adrenal glands and esophagus. The management of ectopic liver is en-bloc resection due to the high risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. Case Presentation. We describe the case of a 42-year-old female who presented with recurrent abdominal pain. She was found to have a smooth fragment of a reddish brown tissue attached to the anterior surface of the gallbladder during an elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The tissue was removed with the gallbladder, and histopathology showed normal ectopic liver tissue. Conclusion. Due to the possibility of malignant transformation into hepatocellular carcinoma, en-bloc resection is the choice of management.

Elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Angiodysplasia is a common type of lesion characterized by malformed submucosal and mucosal blood vessels. Angiodysplasia of the gallbladder is extremely rare, usually an incidental finding, with only two cases reported. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a curative treatment for angiodysplasia of the gallbladder. Our report describes a case of angiodysplasia of the gallbladder in a patient who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy for biliary colic because of gallstones, and a systematic literature review. We surmise that angiodysplasia of the gallbladder could be a risk factor for gallstones in younger female patients.

Ectopic Liver

This case describes an intraoperative incidental finding and surgical removal of ectopic liver tissue attached to the gallbladder during a standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. These anomalies are rare, with interesting associations and possible clinically relevant complications. The details of the case, along with a brief literature review of embryology, common ectopic sites, and associations/complications, are presented in this paper. Since laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a very common procedure, it is important to increase vigilance of ectopic liver tissues during surgeries to minimize complications and provide optimal management.

Abstract Introduction Nationally 61,220 Laparoscopic Cholecystectomies are carried out annually. Those carried out as day-cases reduce providers’ costs and increase income through the best practice tariff. The system in our trust to record discharges is ‘Trakcare’. The aim of this audit was to accurately measure the discharge times of patients undergoing elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomies, to try and reduce the number of patients recorded as having an overnight stay by accurate data collection. Methods Initial data was collected for all elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy discharge times on Trakcare, over a 1 month period. This data was then re-audited prospectively both from Trakcare and discharges reported by nurses/patients. A comparison was then made of Trakcare against reported discharge times. Results Initially 54 operations were recorded, with 30 completed as day cases (55.6%). The re-audited data (on Trakcare) recorded 47 operations, with 15 completed as day cases (37.91%). Of these discharges we were able to capture 26 (55.32%) manually, and 11 were completed as day cases (42.31%). Measuring these 26 with the same operations on Trakcare we were unable to show a difference in the number of cases completed as a day case (11 vs 11), with only a 33 minute decrease in the average length of stay. Conclusion Trakcare is a reliable tool for measuring the date of discharge for patients. The recommendations in are: scheduling surgery for a time pre-13:00 shows a higher proportion of patients discharged the same day, and continue to use Trakcare to record discharge times.

Elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Abstract Introduction The majority of institutions no longer offer routine post-operative follow-up after elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. National guidelines however recommend the use of post-operative hotlines or planned telephone follow-up for day-case procedures. At a time when NHS resources are limited, a digital solution may provide a safe alternative to telephone or physical follow-up. Our aim was to identify if digital follow-up with aboutmyop.org; a digital data-sharing platform, was equivalent to telephone follow-up. Method Study participants were invited to use aboutmyop.org before and after surgery. Patients were given free choice on whether they opted to use post-operative digital follow-up or routine post-operative care (no follow-up or telephone follow-up). In addition to follow-up compliance, the outcomes measured included 30-day post-operative complications, readmission, and re-operation. Results Of 597 laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients who were offered follow-up, 16.4% opted for digital follow-up, and 33.3% phone follow-up. Over 5 times as many patients who opted for telephone follow-up missed their appointment when compared to those who chose digital follow-up (5.6% vs. 30.9%, p < 0.001). Digital follow-up had a high sensitivity (68.2%-100%) and specificity (100%) for identifying complications at 30-days post-operatively and was completed significantly earlier than phone follow-up (median 6 days vs. 13.5 days, p = 0.001) with high patient acceptability. Conclusion This feasibility study demonstrates that digital follow-up utilising the aboutmyop.org platform is an acceptable alternative modality to telephone follow-up in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. Future work should aim to compare matched cohorts of patients undergoing digital follow-up, telephone follow-up, and no follow-up as a randomised controlled trial.
