Q

Steps to exent?

A

Explore the upper abdomen and sample para-aortic nodes for frozen section.
2) Incise lateral pelvic peritoneum and enter the retroperitoneal space.
3) Dissect the paravesical space medial to the external iliac vessels.
4) Enter the para-rectal space between the ureter and the hypogastric artery.
5) Examine the parametrial tissue to rule out extension of tumor to pelvic
sidewall.
6) Dissect the parametrial tissue at the pelvic sidewall down to the levator
sling.
7) The sigmoid colon is transected at an appropriate distance from the
pelvic tumor.
8) The areolar space between the sacrum and rectosigmoid is dissected
down to the levator sling.
9) The bladder is dissected free of the pubic ramus.
10) The ureters are transected at an appropriate distance from the tumor.
11) The urethra, vagina and rectum are transected as low as needed to
obtain adequate tumor-free margins.
12) Colostomy, urinary diversion using an intestinal conduit and isolation
of the pelvic cavity is carried out according to personal technique of the
surgeon. Primary low reanastomosis is acceptable in selected cases.

Ureteroneocystotomy +/- Baori flap or psoas hitch

29
Q

if ureteral injury> 5 cm or above pelvic brim or injury is 3-4 cm proximal to ureterovesical junction how to repair

A

ureteroureterostomy: mobilize ureter for adequate length–>resect until viable tissue–>spatulate w Potts scissor, stent, anastomose (interrupted 5-0 vicryl. place drain near but not next to anastomosis

30
Q

describe psoas hitch

A

1.mobilize 2. cystotomy on anterior bladder, away from done 3. anchor bladder to psoas tendon ( avoid gen/fem)4. reimplant ureter, stent 5. close cystotomy vertically

31
Q

Mobilize the spleen, pull inferior and medial to lyse the splenophrenic and splenocolic ligaments.
Open lesser sac exposing gastrosplenic ligament which contain short gastric.
Divide short gastric’s
Palpate the tail of the pancreas.

Pneumococcal, N meningitis, H influenza

38
Q

What is blind loop syndrome?

A

Poor emptying loop of bowel, stasis, bacterial overgrowth, increased bile salts leading to Mal absorption of fats, increased triglycerides leads to more dysmotility, steatorrhea. Hypocalcemia because calcium down but on absorbs fatty acids in the gut

39
Q

What is short bowel syndrome

A

Malnutrition, dehydration, electrolyte disturbance. A small bowel is less than 3 m, increased chance of malnutrition
If less than 1 m, likely TPN dependent please more….

40
Q

How do you treat short bowel syndrome?

A

Low-fat diet, calcium, vitamin B12, vitamins ADEK, low oxalate

41
Q

What is it parastomal hernia how do you prevent it and what are the predisposing factors

A

it is a complication of a colostomy. More often from end colostomy. Herniation is prevented by bringing the stomathrough the rectus muscle. mesh repair while bringing the stoma through the mesh. Predisposing factors obesity, chemotherapy, increased abdominal pressure, Radiation

42
Q

How do you take down a colostomy?

A

Start with an elliptical incision around the stoma .mobilize the Colon from adhesions. Dissect the skin and Fascia from colon.Close the stoma with TA

43
Q

How do you approach radiation damage bowel?

A

The ideal approach is resection of the affected segment with an anastomosis to non-radiated bowel. However this could lead to shortgut syndrome and it may not be possible to do if the mesentery is immobile. Then you could choose to do a bypass, but this leaves affected segment in situ and could lead to blind loop syndrome. Bypass has lower rate of dehiscence which is likely to be fatal

44
Q

What type of electrolyte imbalanced you get with conduits

A

Hyper chloremic acidosis, aggravated by long conduit. Treatment oral sodium bicarbonate

45
Q

Gracilis flap steps

A
  1. Low lithotomy, slight ext rotatation
  2. Palpate the semitendinosus tendon as it approaches the posterior aspect of the medial tibial condyle and incise above tendon.
  3. Gracilis tendon identified –it is behind the sartorius muscle and in front of the semitendinosis. and pulled to make the muscle palpable under the skin
  4. Measure distance and size of graft. Draw skin island, about 6 cm in width x 20 cm long
  5. A line drawn from the insertion of the adductor tendon on the pubic bone to the insertion of the gracilis on the medial tibial condyle
  6. Incise. Raise muscle from underlying muscles. Protect saphenous vein
  7. Delineate skin island
  8. Suture skin to muscle
  9. Blood supply is derived from the medial femoral circumflex artery which is located between the adductor longus and magnus, entering the gracilis about 8-10 cm below the pubic symphysis.
  10. Close leg with staples and nylon retention sutures, closed drain suction
46
Q

Diaphragm stripping

A
  1. Divide falciform
  2. Incise peritoneum over diaphragm
  3. Grasp edge w/ allis, develop plane between peritoneum and muscle
  4. Continue until the point where the anterior leaf of the coronary ligament and its posterolateral extension, the right traingular ligament, reflect on to the surface of the liver.
  5. Inferior phrenic artery and vein are encountered and clipped.
  6. This exposes bare area of liver. Just to the right of the falciform ligament, the IVC traverses the bare area.
  7. The right phrenic nerve penetrates the diaphragm in the bare area of the liver just lateral to the vena cava.
47
