Intraoperative ultrasound has been using to achieve a proper resection strategy in patients undergoing a hepatic colorectal metastasectomy. This study aims to describe and reveal the place of stereotactic metastasectomy in nonpalpable colorectal liver metastases (CLM). A chart review was initiated for all patients underwent resection for CLM between 2006 and 2011. The data concerning perioperative data and intraoperative strategy were abstracted. Among the 58 patients, who underwent a resection for CLM, 4 (6.9 %) (all men, median age 65.5, range 49-72, years) necessitated a stereotactic metastasectomy. Preoperative evaluations showed 1 (n = 1), 2 (n = 2), or 3 (n = 1) lesions, and intraoperative ultrasound (IUS) found an additional lesion in a case. Stereotactic marking was performed for nonpalpable lesions located in segments IVA, II, and VI and at the junction of segments V and VI. The margins were negative for all lesions both resected with conventional and stereotactic techniques. The examinations of the stereotactic resection materials revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma (patients n = 2), focal nodular hyperplasia (n = 1), and abnormal benign liver histology probably induced by chemotherapy (n = 1). The median (range) operation and hospitalization periods were 217.5 (150-310) minutes and 5.5 (2-9) days. No complications were observed except biliary fistula in a case, which spontaneously disappeared within 2 weeks. A patient died due to systemic disease including hepatic metastases 33 months after the liver surgery. Stereotactic metastasectomy may be feasible for the removal of nonpalpable CLM. Further evaluations are necessitated to understand the accurate place of this novel technique.

Background: LigaSure™ (Covidien, Mansfield, MA) has been used in cases undergoing laparoscopic colon and rectal resections. This study aims to analyze the efficacy and safety of the 5-mm and 10-mm devices. Subjects and Methods: Patients who received a laparoscopic or hand-assisted laparoscopic operation for a tumor located in the sigmoid colon or rectum since 2006 were abstracted from a prospectively designed database, and findings were analyzed in two groups based on size of the device used during the procedure. The videotapes of the procedures were watched, and operation reports were read to obtain further information on specific intra- and postoperative complications. Demographics, tumor and operation-related information, and postoperative data were compared. Results: Among 215 (128 [59.5%] males; median age, 59.5±13.8 years) patients, data obtained from the 5-mm (n=32) and 10-mm (n=183) groups were identical regarding demographics and data related to tumor (localization and stage) and operation (number of harvested lymph nodes, conversion rates, operation time, intraoperative bleeding, transfusion requirement, reoperation rates, complications, 30-day mortality, and length of hospital stay). However, more patients underwent an anterior resection in the 10-mm group than in the 5-mm group (31.7% versus 15.6%, P<.05). Further analyses found device-related bleeding in 8 (3.7%) cases (2 [6.3%] versus 6 [3.3%] in the 5-mm versus 10-mm group, respectively, P>.05), requiring further attempts for hemorrhage control (n=6), conversion to open surgery (n=1), or relaparotomy (n=1). Conclusions: The 5-mm and 10-mm LigaSure devices are similarly effective and safe during laparoscopic sigmoid colon and rectal resections. Severe bleeding from larger vessels may be observed, requiring conversion to open surgery or relaparotomy.

Gezen, Cem; Altuntas, Yunus E.; Kement, Metin; Vural, Selahattin; Civil, Osman; Okkabaz, Nuri; Aksakal, Nihat; Oncel, Mustafa
Background: The aim of the current study is to compare the results after partial and complete splenic flexure mobilization (SFM). Subjects and Methods: The records of laparoscopic and hand-assisted laparoscopic procedures for primary rectal tumor patients were abstracted from a prospectively designed database. The phrenicocolic and splenocolic ligaments were divided via a four-trocar technique in the partial SFM group, and dissection was continued with the separation of gastrocolic and pancreaticomesocolic attachments via a five-trocar procedure in the complete SFM group. The following data were compared between the groups: Demographics, intra- and postoperative information, and pathological features. Results: In total, 122 cases (77 [63.1%] male, 58.2±13.2 years old) who underwent a partial (n=36, 29.5%) or a complete (n=86, 70.5%) SFM were included. Reservoir creation (48.8% versus 19.4%, P=.003) was more common and conversion (8.1% versus 22.2%, P=.039) was less frequent in the complete SFM group, but there were significantly more T4 tumors in the partial group (16.7% versus 2.3%, P=.008). Demographics, other intra- and postoperative parameters, and pathological features were identical. Conclusions: In our study, complete SFM decreased conversion rates, but this finding may be related to the higher rate of T4 tumors in the partial SFM group. Complete SFM assures an increase in reservoir creation in patients receiving a low anterior resection. Because other parameters are identical, the decision for the level of SFM is better left to the surgeon in cases undergoing a low anterior resection, but complete SFM may be preferred in cases who are candidates for a reservoir formation.
