Purpose:the treatment of concomitant gallstones and common bile duct (CBD) stones by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). The analysis of single-step or separated-step characteristics. Object: during the three years (2015-2017), 68 patients having CBD stones concomitant gallstones suitable criteria for inclusion at Hue Central Hospital. Retrospective clinical description study. Results: the average age is 52.2±12.5 years (24-90) and the male/female ratio is 0.7/1 (27/41). Abdominal pain was the most common symptom 91.2%, which was followed by jaundice 51.5%; direct bilirubin increased by 27.3±15.6 μmol/l (2.2-165). The size of CBD stones is 12.4±3.2 mm (6-20), the size of gallstones is 11.3±6.2 mm (5-36). The first time CBD stones 95.6%, recurrent CBD stones 4.4%. Single-step ERCP and LC 34 patients, separated-step group: ERCP 1.4±2.5 times and secondary LC. Single-step ductal clearance 76.5%, separated-step ductal clearance 94.1% (p=0.041). Length of hospital stay 6.5±4.3 days and 13.6±2.2 days (p<0.0001). Conclusions: the rate of ductal clearance in the separated-step group was significantly higher than the single-step group with p=0.041. The indication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy immediately ERCP should be based on the patient’s morbidity, the ductal clearance as well as the prognostic complications of ERCP.

BACKGROUND: The popularity of robot-assisted colorectal surgery has risen over recent years; however, patient-related advantages over laparoscopic surgery remain uncertain. OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to compare short-term patient outcomes following robotic and laparoscopic partial or complete rectal resections. DESIGN: This was a retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS: The study was conducted at 5 large tertiary care Kaiser Permanente medical centers across Southern California. PATIENTS: There were 863 consecutive robotic and laparoscopic pelvic rectal surgeries, including low anterior resections, proctectomies with coloanal anastomosis, and abdominoperineal resections, performed between January 2010 and December 2019. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Short-term patient outcomes, including postoperative length of hospital stay, emergency department returns, and 30-day readmissions, and mortality. RESULTS: A total of 458 surgical procedures were performed via robotic versus 405 via laparoscopic approaches. The robotic group had a higher proportion of male patients (57.4% vs 50.4%; p = 0.04) and a higher proportion of obese (27.1% vs 26.9%; p = 0.02) and overweight patients (36.9% vs 35.1%; p = 0.01). There was no difference in underlying comorbidities of diabetes or smoking, or in the rate of ileostomy creation. After adjusting for Charlson Comorbidity Index, no significant difference was found in emergency department returns between robotic and laparoscopic surgical patients (p = 0.17). There were no significant outcome differences between the 2 groups with regards to length of stay during procedure, 30-day readmission, or death rates. LIMITATIONS: This study was limited by the lack of randomization in its design, selection of patients for surgical approach, and training and familiarity with robotic rectal surgery. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows length of stay during the procedure and postoperative 30-day readmission rates were generally similar between robotic and laparoscopic patients. Male patients and those with a higher BMI were more likely to have been operated via a robotic method. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B857. UN ANÁLISIS COMPARATIVO DE LOS RESULTADOS A CORTO PLAZO DE LOS PACIENTES DESPUÉS DE LA CIRUGÍA RECTAL LAPAROSCÓPICA VERSUS LA ROBÓTICA ANTECEDENTES: La popularidad de la cirugía colorrectal asistida por robot ha aumentado en los últimos años. Sin embargo, las ventajas relacionadas con el paciente siguen siendo inciertas sobre la cirugía laparoscópica. OBJETIVO: Nuestro objetivo era comparar los resultados de los pacientes a corto plazo después de resecciones rectales completas o parciales robóticas y laparoscópicas. DISEÑO: Este fue un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo. AJUSTE: El estudio se llevó a cabo en cinco grandes centros médicos de Kaiser Permanente de atención terciaria en el sur de California. PACIENTES: Se realizaron 863 cirugías robóticas y laparoscópicas rectales pélvicas consecutivas, incluidas resecciones anteriores bajas, proctectomías con anast...
