Abstract

Background

Studies made on a small number of patients have demonstrated significant modifications in liver function tests (LFT) following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Aim

To assess retrospectively, post-operative LFT in a large group of patients undergoing elective uneventful laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods

Between 1999 and 2007, 1,997 patients were scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In 1,034 patients (the study group), the surgery was elective and normal LFT were measured a day prior to surgery. Exclusion criteria included acute cholecystitis, acute pancreatitis, pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography, medication that may affect liver metabolism, and intra-operative complications. Liver function tests were evaluated pre-operatively and 20–24 h post-operatively.

Results

The mean post-operative value of liver function tests and amylase were well within normal limits, although mild increase was inspected in part of it. We observed post-operative mild hepatic enzyme increase only in 41 patients (3.9%), in nine of these, choledocholithiasis was found.

Conclusions

In contrary to previously published data, we have validated, in light of our broad sampling, that the induction of CO2 pneumoperitoneum does not cause deranged liver function tests.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

CME: 2 Punkte

Dr. med. Benjamin Meyknecht, PD Dr. med. Oliver Pieske Das Webinar S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“ beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
