[Biliodigestive anastomoses].

Abstract

Experience with biliodigestive anastomosis in biliary surgery is reported. About 40 operations, subdivided into hepatojejunostomy, choledochojejunostomy, choledochoduodenostomy, hepaticojejunostomy, cholecystoejunostomy, etc. were performed in the period between 1970 and 1978. Indications for these operations are reported and the techniques adopted described. Complications and results are reviewed for each. A choledochoplasty operation using the serosa of an ansa in Roux fashion and transhepatic drainage is reported.

Specific topics and complications of parenteral nutrition.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has proven a tremendous advance in all disciplines in medicine but itself introduces a spectrum of possible complications related to both the parenteral nutritional solution as well as the technique of intravenous delivery. Our aim is to review the specific complications of TPN. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This article presents a critical literature review of relevant topics in TPN-related complications-metabolic, infections, and nutrition related. RESULTS: Special emphasis focuses on complications of TPN arising from thrombosis or infectious sequelae related to the central venous catheterization and metabolic complications involving the kidneys, bones, liver, and biliary tract. CONCLUSIONS: Awareness and surveillance of TPN-related complications can prevent, potentially, some of these complications related to parenteral nutritional support.
