Endoscopic and surgical ampullectomy for intramucosal ampullary tumor: The patient populations are not the same
ConclusionThe short-term and long-term results of patients undergoing endoscopic or surgical ampullectomy are different. The lesions resected by EA were less advanced, with simpler postoperative course. The lesions for which SA was performed were more advanced, and had more morbid sequelae, but with a better rate of complete treatment and better long-term results.

Publication date: Available online 8 November 2019Source: Journal of Visceral SurgeryAuthor(s): M.A. Joly, A. Aime, J.-B. Souraud, B.

The diagnosis of myxoglobulosis is most often fortuitous, but sometimes, can be made in the face of acute appendicitis or another setting of abdominal pain. Imaging (sonography or computerized tomography (CT)) is highly suggestive when ...

Appendix intussusception in a young patient with Crohn's disease
Publication date: Available online 4 November 2019Source: Journal of Visceral SurgeryAuthor(s): A. Faul, A. Laforest, D. FuksSummaryAppendix intussusception is rare, can be responsible of chronic unexplained abdominal pain and is mostly associated with inflammatory changes or endometriosis. A 23-year-old woman with Crohn's disease was diagnosed invaginated appendix by CT-scan and colonoscopy after several acute atypical abdominal pain episodes. These episodes were suspected to be independent of the Crohn's disease and to be attributed to the intussusception itself. A resection combining ligation of the base by colonoscopy ...

Accessible laparoscopic liver resection performed in low volume centers: Is it time for democratization?
ConclusionAlthough LLR have gained acceptance in surgeons’ arsenal, it remains concentrated in referral centres. Our results suggest the feasibility of LLR in non-academic centres when it comes to small accessible lesions. Further studies would provide data about the long-term safety of this procedure in those centres. (Source: Journal of Visceral Surgery)
