Impact of COVID-19 on pre-existing liver disease
Cir Cir. 2024;92(1):131-136. doi: 10.24875/CIRU.23000409.ABSTRACTPatients with chronic liver disease of any etiology who become infected with SARS-CoV-2 have been found to have a higher risk of mortality compared to those patients who do not have chronic liver disease. A literature review was conducted in the relationship between COVID 19 and preexistence of liver disease. The proportion of COVID-19 patients with abnormal liver function on admission ranged from 40 % to 75 % and the proportion with liver injury was close to 30%. Current studies show an important association between preexisting liver disease and COVID-19. Th...

Can platelet activation markers predict preeclampsia and/or its severity?
CONCLUSION: The study suggests that platelet activation markers could aid in predicting, diagnosing, and managing preeclampsia. However, further research is needed to determine the role of these markers in predicting the severity of the disease. The findings of this study could contribute to the development of more effective strategies for the prevention and management of preeclampsia, which could ultimately improve maternal and fetal outcomes.PMID:38537226 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.23000226 (Source: Cirugia y Cirujanos)

Presentation of Wernicke encephalopathy in patient secondary to one anastomosis gastric bypass. Case report and literature review
We present the case of a postoperative patient with a one anastomosis gastric bypass with reoperation undergoing a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass that begins with confusion and nystagmus on her third postoperative day. The diagnosis of Wernicke encephalopathy is made by imaging, and vitamin B1 is administered with total improvement of nystagmus and altered state of consciousness (lethargy, bradypsychia, bradylalia).PMID:38537227 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.21000706 (Source: Cirugia y Cirujanos)

Intestinal intussusception as a postoperative complication of gastric bypass
We present the case of a 41-year-old female who underwent a laparoscopic gastric bypass 8 years prior to her admission to the emergency room, where she arrived complaining of severe and colicky epigastric abdominal pain. The abdominal computed tomography showed a jejuno-jejunal intussusception, for which the patient underwent urgent exploratory laparotomy with intussusception reduction. Intestinal intussusception is a possible postoperative complication of a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.PMID:38537228 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.21000795 (Source: Cirugia y Cirujanos)
