    Notes: Abstract. Gastric volvulus is an infrequently encountered clinical entity characterized by abnormal rotation of the stomach around an axis made by its two fixed portions, the cardia and pylorus. Surgical treatment by anterior gastropexy is usually indicated for chronic gastric volvulus to prevent complications and treat the underlying pathology. We report a patient with chronic gastric volvulus who was treated with laparoscopic anterior and diaphragmatic gastropexy. Laparoscopy not only identifies underlying predisposing conditions but also allows effective fixation for gastric volvulus. Laparoscopic approach minimizes the access trauma and is superior for benign upper gastrointestinal lesions.

    Laparoscopic resection of bleeding gastric polyps (1997)
    Springer
    Surgical endoscopy and other interventional techniques 11 (1997), S. 283 -284

    Notes: Abstract. Gastric polyps account for a small proportion of gastric neoplasms. Many of them presented with acute or chronic bleeding. Endoscopic polypectomy is the preferred treatment modality. However, endoscopic polypectomy is often incomplete and impossible for large polyps. Large and intramural polyps require laparotomy and excision. From June to October 1995, four patients with bleeding gastric polyps received laparoscopic resection in our unit. All were women, aged 40–78, with polyps 2–6 cm in diameter. One patient underwent emergency surgery for active bleeding. The others received elective operations. Operating time ranged from 90 to 120 min. There was no perioperative morbidity or mortality. Full diet was resumed by the 4th postoperative day. The average postoperative hospital stay was 5.3 days (4–7). Laparoscopic resection of gastric polyp is a preferable treatment option when endoscopic treatment fails.

    Perforation after endoscopic injection sclerotherapy for bleeding gastric varices (1994)
    Springer
    Surgical endoscopy and other interventional techniques 8 (1994), S. 1221-1222 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2218
    Keywords: Gastric varices ; Sclerotherapy ; Perforation
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Bleeding from gastric varices is an uncommon condition for which hemostatic control is difficult and ill defined. Most clinicians tend to achieve hemostasis by endoscopic treatment because of the prevailing poor general condition of these patients. A case of fundal perforation following excessive injection sclerotherapy is reported and possible mechanism discussed.

    How useful is colonoscopy in locating colorectal lesions? (1998)
    Springer
    Surgical endoscopy and other interventional techniques 12 (1998), S. 839-841 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2218
    Keywords: Key words: Colonoscopy — Colorectal disease — Diagnostic accuracy

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Background: It is important to establish the precise location of a colorectal lesion preoperatively. We used a model based on colorectal cancer to assess the efficacy of colonoscopy in locating these lesions. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed all consecutive new colorectal cancer cases at the Department of Surgery, United Christian Hospital, Hong Kong, in 1995. Results: Of the 123 cases reviewed by us, 84 cases satisfied the analysis criteria. The overall accuracy was 81%. It was especially high in the rectosigmoid region (93%) and descending colon (100%). The overall predictive power was 83%. It was especially high in the right-sided colon (100%) and the rectosigmoid region (93%). Conclusions: We conclude that colonoscopy is an accurate means for locating lesions in the upper rectum and sigmoid colon. It is also very predictive of lesions in the upper rectum, sigmoid colon, and right-sided colon.
