[Pancreatoduodenectomy with pancreaticogastric anastomosis].

There is not general agreement concerning the ideal way of preventing pancreatic leakage after duodenopancreatectomy. The aim of the present study is to present the experience of a three years period of performing a pancreatogastroanastomosis (PGA) after duodenopancreatectomy (DPC) in 12 consecutive patients. In 7 cases PGA was performed after closure of the gastric stump using a transverse incision of the posterior wall of the stomach. A total layer of nylon 9 points was doubled by an interrupted serocapsular suture. In one case only the seromuscular layers of the stomach were cut, adjusted to the size of the pancreatic section with a central hole for the duct of Wirsung. Four nylon 10 points were used to anastomose the latter to the gastric mucosa. PGA was performed in one layer interrupted suture between the pancreatic capsule and the seromuscular of the stomach. In 4 cases, after closure of the gastric stump an anterior gastrotomy was associated to the posterior incision of the gastric wall in order to perform PGA using an intragastric route. The postoperative follow-up showed a good evolution with only one anastomotic leakage that necessitated reintervention in the 10th day. PGA might be elective after DPC when appropriate dissection and mobilisation of the pancreas is possible.

[Surgical treatment of pelvic subperitoneal tumors].

In the last 5 years in our hospital was operated 25 patients with pelvisubperitoneal tumors. Major clinical symptoms are compression and body mass effect. The localization and tumors dimensions, are established by CT and RMI. Surgical resection, difficult by the relations with iliac vessels and nerves, was do it in sub capsular manners and followed by chemo and radiotherapy. Our results are good, with 6 patients who passed 4 years postoperatively.

[Transtumoral drilling--an efficient solution and in many cases the only one available in the surgical treatment of Klatskin tumors].

PURPOSE: Reviewing the cases and evaluate the efficacity of the trans-tumoral drilling in the Klatskin tumours which were operated in Colentina Surgical Department. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This is a clinical retrospective study on 109 cases of Klatskin tumours operated between 1998-2004. in 80 cases of them we could practice a biliary drainage using a trans-tumoral drilling. SURGICAL INDICATION: Malignant tumours of the main biliary duct developed at the level and above the junction of the two hepatic ducts , extended to the liver in many cases. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Through the choledochostomy, we performed with a special instrument the trans-tumoral drilling with the setting of a biliary axial drainage (40 cases), external biliary drainage through a semirigid trans-choledochal tube (25 cases), Kehr tube (9 cases), U tube (3 cases), internal drainage with intra-choledochal stent (2 cases), lost tube (1 case). RESULTS: In all cases we observed the early decrease of the jaundice. In the cases in which we used internal drainage, we had to perform a replacement of the closed tubes in 1-2 months after the first operation. Instead, the external biliary drainage, less expensive and periodically washed to preserve his permeability, proved his high efficiency. The average survival time was 8,9 months (between 5-20 months). CONCLUSIONS: The external biliary drainage through trans-tumoral drilling remains in many cases the only one available therapeutical solution for the Klatskin tumours.

[Palliative total gastrectomy].

Gastric cancer, because of lymphonodulary and local extension, often allows only palliative surgery. This study tries to present the total gastrectomy as an alternative meant to improve the life of the patients who cannot hope to radical cure. Thirty-one patients were submitted to this operation during the last five years. The main indication for surgery was cancer extended to the gastric corpus, mainly on the posterior aspects and almost reaching the cardia. Because of lymphonodulary invasion over N2, hepatic and pancreatic and colonic invasion over N2, hepatic and pancreatic and colonic invasion and because of the metastases, the resections were palliative. The operations consisted of total gastrectomy and omentectomy, without trying to reach lymphatic stations over NI. All cases presented evidence of restant cancerous tissue involving the pancreas, the liver or the other lymphatic stations, but the main purpose was the ablation of the gastric tumor. Postoperatively we recorded 3 deaths, 9 anastomotic fistulae and an average survival of 9 months (6-13 months).
