RESUMO
Resumen Objetivo: Describir resultados en términos de morbilidad y mortalidad del tratamiento de quistes hidatídicos hepáticos (QHH) por vía laparoscópica en una serie de pacientes consecutivos. Comparar calidad de vida (CV) de pacientes sometidos a quistectomía laparoscópica (QL) con pacientes llevados a colecistectomía laparoscópica. Materiales y Método: Serie de casos con seguimiento de pacientes con QHH, sometidos a QL. Analizamos datos con Stata® 10.0, mediante medidas de tendencia central y dispersión. Describimos 4 variables, realizando seguimiento con tomografía computada (TC) abdominal. Aplicamos encuesta de calidad de vida SF-36. Resultados: Incluimos 12 pacientes, 58,3% de género femenino. Número de quistes 2,02 ± 1,56, volumen quístico mayor 809,16 ± 766,05 ml, diámetro de quiste mayor 11,77 ± 4,33 cm, predominando en lóbulo hepático derecho (58%). Tiempo operatorio promedio 234,1 ± 52,9 minutos. Estadía hospitalaria promedio 11,5 ± 14,5 días. Morbilidad en 16,6%, sin mortalidad posoperatoria. Seguimiento con imágenes promedio fue 7,9 ± 4,3 meses, encontrando cavidades residuales pequeñas y asintomáticas en 50% de pacientes. No reportamos recidivas. Al comparar CV con grupo de colecistectomía sólo encontramos diferencia respecto a vitalidad (p = 0,04). Discusión: Aunque nuestra serie es pequeña y presenta mayor tiempo quirúrgico (por selección de pacientes) y mayor estancia hospitalaria que en otras series de QL, presenta menor porcentaje de recidivas, de fístulas biliares y no presenta mortalidad, concordando con otras series de QL que la recomiendan como opción terapéutica. Conclusiones: La QL para el tratamiento de los QHH resulta una cirugía aceptable, con morbilidad y mortalidad comparable con reportes de cirugía abierta.
Aim: To describe results in morbidity and mortality terms of the hepatic hydatidosis (HHC) treatment by laparoscopic route in selected patients. In addition, compare the quality of life (QL) of cystomectized vs cholecystectomized patients, both laparoscopically. Materials and Method: Case series with follow-up of patients with HHC, undergoing laparoscopic cystectomy (LC). Data analysis, through measures of central tendency and dispersion, performed with Stata® 10.0. Analyzing 4 variables followed-up with abdominal computed tomography. A quality of life survey SF-36" was applied. Results: 12 patients were included, 58.3% female gender. Cysts number 2.02 ± 1.56, largest cystic volume 809.16 ± 766.05 ml, larger cyst diameter 11,77 ± 4,33 cm. Right hepatic lobe is predominantly 58%. Surgical time, 234.16 ± 52.95 minutes. Hospital stay, 11.58 ± 14.55 days. Morbidity 16.6%, with no postoperative mortality. Follow-up, performed at 7.9 ± 4.3 months, finding residual cavity in 50%, no recurrences were reported. At comparing QL with cholecystectomy group, we only found differences at the vitality item (p = 0,04). Discussion: Although our series is small and has a longer surgical time (by patient selection) and a longer hospital stay than in other LC series, it has a lower recurrences percentage, biliary fistulas, and no mortality, agreeing with other LC series that recommend it as a therapeutic option. Conclusions: The laparoscopic approach for the HHC treatment, is an acceptable surgery, with morbidity and mortality comparable to the reports of laparotomy surgery.

Infected hepatic echinococcosis (IHE), defined as a cystic infection, and the development of a liver abscess may be a complication in the natural history of hepatic echinococcosis. The aim of this study was to review the evidence available related to clinical, therapeutic, and prognostic aspects of IHE. We conducted a systematic review. Trip Database, BIREME-BVS, SciELO, LILACS, IBECS, PAHO-WHO; WoS, EMBASE, SCOPUS and PubMed were consulted. Studies related to IHE in humans, without language restriction, published between 1966 and 2020 were considered. Variables studied were publication year, geographical origin of the samples, number of patients, therapeutic and prognosis aspects, and methodological quality (MQ) for each article. Descriptive statistics was applied. Subsequently, weighted averages (WA) of the MQ of each article were calculated for each variable of interest. 960 related articles were identified; 47 fulfilled selection criteria, including 486 patients with a median age of 48 years, 51.6% being male. The largest proportion of articles were from Spain, India, and Greece (36.1%). Mean cyst diameter was 14.1 cm, and main location was right liver lobe (74.0%). WA for morbidity, mortality, hospital stay, and follow-up were 28.5%, 7.4%, 8.5 days and 14.8 months, respectively. The most common causative microorganisms of superinfection isolated were Enterobacteriaceae. An association with cholangitis was reported in 13.4% of cases. Mean MQ of the 47 articles included was 7.6 points. We can conclude that the information related to IHE is scarce and scattered throughout articles of small casuistry and poor quality, and consequently does not provide strong evidence.

INTRODUCTION: Thoracic involvement (TIHE) is one of the evolutionary complications of hepatic echinococcosis (HE). AIM: The aim of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics and postoperative morbidity (POM) of a series of patients with TIHE treated surgically. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Series of cases of patients treated for TIHE between 2000 and 2014 in the Hospital Regional and Clínica Mayor in Temuco, Chile, with a minimum 12-month follow-up. The outcome variable was "development of POM". Descriptive statistics were used. RESULTS: The series was composed of 37 patients with a mean age of 53.2 ± 47.4 years (51.4% female). Mean cyst diameter was 19.4 ± 15.5 cm, and 75.7% of the lesions were located in the right hepatic lobe. The most frequent surgical technique used for the cyst was subtotal pericystectomy (56.8%); the residual cavity was treated by capitonnage (27.0%) or omentoplasty (21.6%), and a phrenoplasty with or without prosthetic material was performed for the TIHE. Mean hospital stay was 6.0 ± 5.7 days and follow-up was 61.4 ± 79.9 months; a mortality rate of 2.7% (one patient) and a POM of 24.3% (9 patients) were verified. CONCLUSION: TIHE is an uncommon evolutionary complication of HE associated with significant POM rate.

BACKGROUND: One of the evolutionary complications of hepatic echinococcosis (HE) is cholangiohydatidosis, a rare cause of obstructive jaundice and cholangitis. The aim of this study was to describe the results of surgical treatment on a group of patients with cholangiohydatidosis and secondary cholangitis in terms of post-operative morbidity (POM). MATERIAL AND METHOD: Case series of patients operated on for cholangiohydatidosis and cholangitis in the Department at Surgery of the Universidad de La Frontera and the Clínica Mayor in Temuco, Chile between 2004 and 2014. The minimum follow-up time was six months. The principal outcome variable was the development of POM. Other variables of interest were age, sex, cyst diameter, hematocrit, leukocytes, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase and transaminases, type of surgery, existence of concomitant evolutionary complications in the cyst, length of hospital stay, need for surgical re-intervention and mortality. Descriptive statistics were calculated. RESULTS: A total of 20 patients were studied characterized by a median age of 53 years, 50.0% female and 20.0% having two or more cysts with a mean diameter of 13.3 ± 6.3 cm. A median hospital stay of six days and follow-up of 34 months was recorded. POM was 30.0%, re-intervention rate was 10.0% and mortality rate was 5.0%. CONCLUSION: Cholangiohydatidosis is a rare cause of obstructive jaundice and cholangitis associated with significant rates of POM and mortality.

The laparoscopic approach has taken a prominent role in the last decades for various surgical conditions, including liver hydatid cyst. However there is controversy about whether it can replace open surgery. Using Epistemonikos database, which is maintained by screening 30 databases, we identified three systematic reviews which together include four relevant studies, all nonrandomized. We combined the evidence using meta-analysis and generated a summary of findings table following the GRADE approach. We concluded it is unclear whether laparoscopy for hepatic hydatid cyst reduces mortality, morbidity or recurrence compared with open surgery because the certainty of the evidence is very low.
En las últimas décadas se ha posicionado el abordaje laparoscópico para diversas patologías quirúrgicas, entre ellas el quiste hidatídico hepático. Sin embargo existe controversia sobre si realmente este puede reemplazar a la cirugía abierta. Utilizando la base de datos Epistemonikos, la cual es mantenida mediante búsquedas en 30 bases de datos, identificamos tres revisiones sistemáticas que en conjunto incluyen cuatro estudios pertinentes, todos no aleatorizados. Realizamos un metanálisis y tablas de resumen de los resultados utilizando el método GRADE. Concluimos que no está claro si el manejo del quiste hidatídico hepático por laparoscopía disminuye la mortalidad, morbilidad o recurrencia en comparación con la cirugía abierta porque la certeza de evidencia es muy baja.

INTRODUCTION: Among several regions in the world hepatic hydatidosis can be considered endemic. Currently there are many available treatments for this disease, been surgery the most effective one. Surgical procedures can be divided in two main groups, radical and non-radical procedures. The goal of this work is to evaluate the morbidity, mortality and percentage of recurrence in patients treated with hepatectomies, comparing them with other publications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study was carried out in a series from Spain and Argentina. We analyzed the following data: sex, age, type of resection, associated surgical gestures, presence of liver disease, operative time, blood transfusion, morbidity, mortality, hospital stay, re-hospitalization, recurrence and follow up. Dindo--Clavien classification was used for complications, and International Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (IHPBA) Brisbane classification for hepatectomies. Mortality was considered until 90 days after surgery. To evaluate the recurence we only included patients followed over 6 months. RESULTS: Indications for liver resections were performed in patients with cysts larger than 5 centimeters, multiple cysts, large cysts, with bile duct communicated or suspicion of this communication. Five patients required blood transfusions (10%) with a median for these 5 patients of 740 ml and 74 ml for the complete series. The median operative time was 186 minutes (range 45 to 1,050 minutes). Median hospital stay was 7.7 days. Monitoring more than 6 months was conducted in 38 patients. CONCLUSIONS: We believe that hepatic hydatid disease is a multifaceted disease and requires more than one therapeutic approach. Hepatectomy with complete resection of the parasite offers the possibility of doing so in a controlled and safe way by experienced hands, ensuring good results in the treatment of this disease.

INTRODUCTION: Hydatid disease is a major health problem in some parts of the world. There are several nonoperative and operative ways to treat hydatic disease. The aim of this retrospective study is to assess the rate of postoperative complications, mortality rate, hospitalization period, and recurrence for capsulorrhaphy method, and to compare it with other hydatic cyst management techniques. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An open surgical procedure using capsulorrhaphy technique was performed on 250 patients (130 men and 120 women) with uncomplicated hydatic cysts in the Northwest of Iran, between 1989 and 2011. RESULTS: The patients stayed in the hospital between 4 and 10 days, with an average of 5 days. Of the patients, 233 (93.2%) were discharged without any complications, 9 (3.6%) developed a wound infection in the abdominal wall, and 7 (2.8%) developed pulmonary atelectasis. Those who developed an infection or an atelectasis stayed in the hospital for few more days for conservative treatments. One of the patients (0.4%) had external biliary fistula and bile leak, which was treated with surgery and Roux-en-Y cystojejunostomy. During follow-ups (13.2 ± 8.5 months), incisional hernias occurred in 5 (2%) patients and hydatid cyst recurrence affected 7 (2.8) patients. The mortality rate was zero amongst the studied patients. CONCLUSION: Compared to other techniques in the literature, the results presented in the current work indicate that capsulor-rhaphy is an efficient method in terms of decreased postoperative complications, recurrence, and hospitalization period, and is a safe method with low morbidity and zero mortality rates.

BACKGROUND: The management of hydatid liver disease (HLD) includes various nonsurgical and surgical treatment options. METHODS: The purpose of the present longitudinal study was to report the changes in surgical management and the consequent outcome of HLD patients in 10 referral surgical centres in Argentina from 1975 to 2007. The study result analysis was divided into two study periods (1975-1990 and 1991-2007). RESULTS: A total of 1412 patients underwent radical (Group 1: 396 patients), conservative (Group 2: 748 patients) or combined (Group 3: 536 interventions in 268 patients) surgical procedures. The overall mortality and complication rate (Clavien I-IV) was 1.8 and 39% respectively. The complication rate was significantly lower in Group 1 (26%) compared with Group 2 (45%) and Group 3 (42%) There was a significant decrease in mortality (2.3 vs. 1%), complication (42 vs. 34%) and early reoperation (12 vs. 6%) rates between the first study part (918 patients) and the second study part (494 patients). During a median follow-up of 7 years, there was a significant decrease in the first part of this study in the late reoperation rate (8.4-3%) and in disease recurrence (9-1.6%). CONCLUSION: This large national observational multicentre series shows a significant improvement in surgical management of HLD in Argentina, with a decrease in mortality, morbidity, early and late reoperation and recurrence rates. A recent trend was observed in favour of an earlier diagnosis, less complicated clinical presentation and recent use of minimally invasive approaches.
