    Desmoid tumors: clinical features and outcome of an unpredictable and challenging manifestation of familial adenomatous polyposis
    (2015) CAMPOS, Fabio Guilherme; MARTINEZ, Carlos Augusto Real; NOVAES, Marleny; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; CECCONELLO, Ivan
    Background/Aims Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare, locally invasive neoplasms that may affect 10-25 % of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients. Our aim was to evaluate incidence and clinical presentation among our patients, the potential impact on FAP outcome and to discuss treatment. Materials and methods Charts from 133 FAP (1977-2013) were reviewed. Patients with DTs were separated to retrieve demographic, clinical and management data. Follow-up was focused on disease evolution causing complications or death. Results 19 (14.3 %) DTs were diagnosed, either after previous trauma (16) or during FAP surgery (3). This group comprised 8 men (42.1 %) and 11 women (57.9 %) with an average age of 32.9 years. Intervals from surgical trauma to DTs ranged from 7 to 60 months. ECMs were detected in 12 (63.1 %) patients. DTs were located in the abdominal wall (8), abdominal cavity (8), abdominal wall and cavity (2) and left arm (1). Five patients (26.3 %) referred family history of DTs. Patients presented severe complications such as small bowel obstruction (4) and hydronephrosis (2), being directly responsible for death in three patients. Conclusions (1) DTs developed in 14.3 % of FAP, mostly after surgical trauma; (2) 30 % caused severe morbidity; (3) identification of clinical risk factors may help surgeons to develop screening and therapeutic decisions.

    Short-term outcomes after laparoscopic colorectal surgery in patients with previous abdominal surgery: A systematic review
    (2016) FIGUEIREDO, Marleny Novaes; CAMPOS, Fabio Guilherme; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; CECCONELLO, Ivan; PANIS, Yves
    AIM: To perform a systematic review focusing on short-term outcomes after colorectal surgery in patients with previous abdominal open surgery (PAOS). METHODS: A broad literature search was performed with the terms ""colorectal"", ""colectomy"", ""PAOS"", ""previous surgery"" and ""PAOS"". Studies were included if their topic was laparoscopic colorectal surgery in patients with PAOS, whether descriptive or comparative. Endpoints of interest were conversion rates, inadvertent enterotomy and morbidity. Analysis of articles was made according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. RESULTS: From a total of 394 citations, 13 full-texts achieved selection criteria to be included in the study. Twelve of them compared patients with and without PAOS. All studies were retrospective and comparative and two were case-matched. The selected studies comprised a total of 5005 patients, 1865 with PAOS. Among the later, only 294 (16%) had history of a midline incision for previous gastrointestinal surgery. Conversion rates were significantly higher in 3 of 12 studies and inadvertent enterotomy during laparoscopy was more prevalent in 3 of 5 studies that disclosed this event. Morbidity was similar in the majority of studies. A quantitative analysis (meta-analysis) could not be performed due to heterogeneity of the studies. CONCLUSION: Conversion rates were slightly higher in PAOS groups, although not statistical significant in most studies. History of PAOS did not implicate in higher morbidity rates.
