Review Case Reports
[The abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in general surgery].
Mortality due to the abdominal compartment syndrome is extremely high (38-71%). It may be defined as adverse physiologic consequences that occur as a result of an acute increase in the intraabdominal pressure. ⋯ The diagnosis depends on the recognition of the clinical syndrome followed by an objective measurement of intraabdominal pressure, preferably that of the urinary bladder. The treatment consist of adequate fluid resuscitation and surgical decompression when necessary.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[A novel technique for the closure of the pancreatic remnant using jejunal serosa following distal pancreatectomy].
Postoperative complication rate after distal pancreatectomy is as high as 10-30% in the published literature. Intraabdominal abscess formation and pancreatic fistula are the most common and clinically relevant complications, and they are thought to depend on surgical technique and skills. Using a novel method, we covered the pancreatic stump with the serosal surface of the first jejunal loop. ⋯ However, there was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay. We concluded that using the serosal surface of the first jejunal loop is a simple, quick and secure method of closure of the proximal pancreas in terms of surgical practicability. This new technique significantly decreases the rate of postoperative fistula or abscess formation after distal pancreatectomy.

[Video-assisted, extended thymectomy for the treatment of myasthenia gravis. Our early experiences].
Extended thymectomy is the key-point of the surgical treatment of the myasthenia gravis (MG), when the thymus with the surrounding fatty tissue on the neck and in the mediastinum is removed. In this study we present a new surgical technique introduced into our practice in November 2004, and with that the thymectomy is performed with video-thoracoscopic method, without sternotomy. ⋯ The video-assisted extended thymectomy for MG, that was introduced into our practice, is a safe surgical procedure with good results. The postoperative period is easier for the patients, and the MG was improved in each cases.
