Abstract:
In a newborn baby with Hirshsprung's disease obstructive jaundice developed following prolonged parenteral nutrition. At laparotomy, thick inspissated bile was flushed from the biliary tree and prompt resolution of the jaundice followed. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case in which inspissated bile appeared to be a complication of total parenteral nutrition. Mechanical obstruction must be recognized as an extreme in the spectrum of total parenteral nutrition cholestasis.Cite

Objective To assess the combined application of staged enteral and parenteral nutrition support in patients with acute pancreatitis. Methods Sixty patients with acute pancreatitis who underwent conservative treatment were divided into total parenteral nutrition and staged parenteral and enteral nutrition. The changes of clinical indicators and clinical outcome were recorded. Results All of the 30 cases in the total parenteral nutrition+enteral nutrition group tolerated the enteral nutrition.One week after nutrition support from parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition, total protein serum albumin and blood calcium significantly increased (P0.01);ALT and AST significantly decreased (P0.01).The blood glucose was significantly decreased (P0.05).The average hospital stay was shorter in the total parenteral nutrition+enteral nutrition group than in the total parenteral nutrition group(P0.05),and the average charge and total charge were cheaper in the total parenteral nutrition+enteral nutrition group than in the total parenteral nutrition group.Conclusion The results of glucose and nutritional indicators in total parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition are better than in total parenteral nutrition group.

To review and discuss the evidence and arguments to combine enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition in the ICU, in particular with reference to the Early Parenteral Nutrition Completing Enteral Nutrition in Adult Critically Ill Patients (EPaNIC) study.The EPaNIC study shows an advantage in terms of discharges alive from the ICU when parenteral nutrition is delayed to day 8 as compared with combining enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition from day 3 of ICU stay.The difference between the guidelines from the European Society of Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition in Europe and American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition/Society of Critical Care Medicine in North America concerning the combination of enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition during the initial week of ICU stay was reviewed. The EPaNIC study clearly demonstrates that early parenteral nutrition in the ICU is not in the best interests of most patients. Exactly at what time point the combination of enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition should be considered is still an open question.

Mini laparotomy is technical for the resection of colorectal cancer (CRC) in selected patients. The aim was to compare clinical outcomes of mini laparotomy with conventional laparotomy in CRC patients.Between january 2007 and june 2010, 138 patients and 117 patients underwent elective resection using either mini laparotomy or conventional laparotomy respectively. Mini laparotomy involved a colorectal resection performed through a skin incision ≤8 cm in length. Clinicopathological factors, operative procedure and postoperative course were retrospectively analyzed to compare clinical outcomes between the two groups.Mini laparotomy seems to be an attractive alternative for resection of CRC in selected patients. Clinicopathological and histopathological features were similar between both groups, whereas intraoperative blood loss, operative time and harvested lymph-node numbers in conventional laparotomy were significantly greater (p=0.003, p=0.008 and p=0.024, respectively). Postoperative relapse, complications and hospitalization were significantly better in the mini laparotomy (all p<0.001). In comparison of postoperative complications between convention and mini laparotomy, ileus was more frequently encountered in conventional group (p=0.001). Interestingly, the disease-free survival and overall survival in mini laparotomy group were significantly better than control group (p=0.001 and p=0.017, respectively).Compared to conventional laparotomy, mini laparotomy seems a feasible, minimally invasive and attractive alternative in selected patients.

In the early days of parenteral nutrition of children liver disease resulting in steatosis and cholestasis was assumed to be an inevitable complication of the procedure. Since then, the management of parenteral nutrition has improved so much that nowadays adolescents have a fair chance of surviving more than 15 to 20 years without severe liver disease. Nevertheless, we still see cases of parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis (PNAC) due to various conditions such as recurrent infections, inflammatory response, inappropriate composition of the nutrient mixture, contaminants of the nutrient solution, and toxic substances from infusion bags and tubes.

Purpose Negative laparotomy in patients with abdominal penetrating injuries (APIs) is associated with deleterious outcomes and unnecessary expense; however, the indications for laparotomy in hemodynamically stable patients with ambiguous computed tomography (CT) findings remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with negative laparotomy. findings Methods Data of patients who underwent laparotomy for APIs between 2011 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients who presented with definite indications for laparotomy were excluded. The patients were dichotomized into negative and positive laparotomy groups, and the baseline characteristics, laboratory test results, and CT findings were compared between the groups. Results Of 55 patients with ambiguous CT findings, 38 and 17 patients were assigned to the negative and positive laparotomy groups, respectively. There was no significant difference between the groups with respect to the baseline characteristics or the nature of the ambiguous CT findings. However, the laboratory test results showed that there was a difference in the percentage of neutrophils between the groups (negative: 55.6% [range 47.4â66.1%] vs. positive: 79.8% [range 77.6â88.2%], p<0.001), although the total white blood cell count was not significantly different. The mean duration of hospital stay for the negative laparotomy group was 13.1 days, and seven patients (18.4%) experienced complications. Conclusions Diagnostic factors definitively indicative of laparotomy were not identified, although the percentage of neutrophils might be helpful. However, routine laparotomy in patients with peritoneal injuries could result in instances of negative laparotomy. Keywords: Abdominal injuries; Wounds, penetrating; Laparotomy

Summary It appears that neonates, especially those with very low birthweights, may be at especially high risk of developing cholestasis associated with total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Within 2 weeks of starting intravenous alimentation, it would appear highly desirable to be able to start at least small enteral feedings to interrupt the physiology of fasting. Such feedings may not have to be of much nutritional benefit to improve cholestasis. Calorie and amino acid intake should be limited to the requirements of the infant being treated. Whether protection of the TPN infusate from light is of benefit remains to be determined. Drug therapies for TPN-associated cholestasis of infancy have not been proven safe or effective. Additional investigations to further clarify the pathogenesis of this syndrome, and clinical studies of prophylaxis and therapy, are needed to enhance our ability to provide nutritionally effective and metabolically safe parenteral nutrition.
