Laparoscopic gastric resection.

Abstract

This article focuses on laparoscopic gastric resections for neoplastic disease, gastric cancer, and gastric mesenchymal tumors. Established oncologic principles governing resections for neoplastic disease must not be overlooked in the laparoscopic approach to surgical management. Evidence-based information on surgical management of gastric cancer and stromal stomach tumors is presented, and the laparoscopic procedures that can be undertaken without compromising the clinical outcome are surveyed.

[Acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23). Empirical data and implications for therapy].

The defining clinical features of acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23) are an acute onset and a duration of psychotic symptoms not exceeding 1-3 months. Previous empirical investigations show that patients with this diagnosis have a favourable prognosis, but also a high risk of relapses (58-77%). The diagnostic stability in the further course of illness seems to be low (34-73%) with a frequent diagnostic change to schizophrenia and affective disorders being observed. As yet, data from controlled clinical trials regarding therapy do not exist. The implications for the treatment of acute and transient psychotic disorders are discussed with this background.
