Surgical treatment of complicated Duodenal ulcer: RCT Pre-op preparation: what I will do • Informed consent secured • Psychosocial support provided • Optimized patient’s physical health – Correction of anemia/electrolytes – Nutritional build-up • Patient screened for any health condition • Operative materials secured Intra-op Management: How I will do It (Vagotomy, Gastrojejunostomy) • • • • Patient supine under GETA Asepsis and antisepsis technique Sterile drapes place Long vertical incision from xyphoid to supraumbilical area Mobilization of left lateral segment of the liver Division of triangular ligament Exposure of esophagogastric junction Exposure of anterior vagus nerve Isolation/ligation of nerve trunk, anterior, posterior and esophageal branches • Anterior vagal trunk is encircled with hook and dissected sharply from esophageal musculature • Nerve trunk is ligated proximally and distally Drainage via Gastrojejunostomy Anastomotic site Posterior serosal suture Gastric incision Posterior mucosal suture Anterior mucosal suture Completion of anastomotic defect Post-op Care • Postoperative care: – Intravenous fluids – nasogastric decompression – Analgesics – hemodynamics • The nasogastric tube is removed upon return of gastrointestinal transit, and feeding is slowly begun. Outcome: • • • • • Resolution of obstruction Live patient No complications Satisfied patient No medico-legal suit Sharing of information SURGERY FOR PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE(PUD) • • Ulcer in the GIT is characterized by an interruption in the mucosa stretching through the muscularis mucosa into the submucosa or deeper Location - in order of decreasing frequency – Duodenum – Stomach – Esophagus Epidemiology Gastric ulcer Duodenal ulcer Age 40 – 60 20 – 45 Sex M : V = 1.5 : 1 M:V=3:1 Socio-economic Lower Higher Blood group A O Classification of Gastric Ulcers(GU) ( Gaintree – Johnson ) • Type 1 = incisura on the lesser curvature. No increased acid secretion. Mucosal resistance problem. • Type 2 = Gastric and duodenal ulcer. Gastric ulcer secondary to gastric stases caused by duodenal ulcer. • Type 3 = Prepyloric ulcer within 2-3cm of the pylorus. Often acid hypersecretors. Association with blood group O. Treated like duodenal ulcer. • Type 4(Csendes) = High on lesser curvature near gastro-esophageal junction. As Type 1. • Type 5 = Secondary to chronic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Can occur anywhere in the stomach. Pathogenesis • Still debated • Traditionally duodenal ulcers are seen as a problem with acid hypersecretion and gastric ulcers as a mucosal resistance problem Gastric acid. Central in pathogenesis – no benign ulceration occurs without gastric acid Gastric stases. Delayed emptying of normal amounts of acid with increased exposure Enviromental factors are very important. a) Helicobacter pylori infection. 90% of patients with DU and 50% of patients with GU b) NSAID use. The mucus gel layer contains bicarbonate. This layer adheres to the gastric mucosa. It protects the mucosa against back diffusion of hydrogen ions. NSAID’s suppress mucus cell function. c) Smoking 4) 5) Mucosal resistance Genetic predisposition Clinical Picture DUODENAL ULCER 1) Epigastric pain – Central or slightly to the right Burning or gnawing Can spread to the back Relieved by ingestion of food or anti-acid Pain occurs when patient is hungry 2) Different degrees of nausea and vomiting 3) Weight gain ( Pain relieved by ingestion of food) 4) Epigastric tenderness just to the right of the midline, may be absent. GASTRIC ULCER Epigastric pain – Brought on by meals often within 30 minutes 2) Nausea and vomiting 3) Weight loss 4) Epigastric tenderness 1) Complications 1) 2) 3) 4) Bleeding Perforation Gastric outlet obstruction Penetration Management • Surgery is indicated and for the following: 1) Non-healing ulcer ( 8 – 12 weeks for GU, DU can be managed conservatively for longer since the risk for malignancy is low) 2) Complications • a) Perforation b) Bleeding if massive, c) Gastric outlet obstruction that does not clear up on conservative management. Surgical principle for definitive ulcer surgery Definitive ulcer operations for GU • Type 1 GU partial gastrectomy. Vagotomy not done. • Type 2 and 3 GU treated as DU. HSV contra-indicated due to high ulcer recurrence with prepyloric ulcers. • Type 4 GU treated with partial gastrectomy and excision of a long tongue of lesser curvature including the ulcer(Pauchet procedure). Gastric outlet obstruction • Cycles of inflammation and repair may cause obstruction at the gastroduodenal junction as a result of edema, muscular spasm and fibroses. • Edema and spasm can resolve with medical treatment. • Obstruction is mainly caused by DU and prepiloric GU. • Malignant tumors is the other important cause of gastric outlet obstruction. • normal pylorus is about 20 mm in diameter and can distend to 25 mm • gastric outlet obstruction occur when the diameter of the antroduodenal segment is below 10 mm • A saline load test can be utilized in the objective measurement of outlet obstruction or gastric atony and the assessment of response to therapy • The major benign causes of GOO are PUD, gastric polyps, ingestion of caustics, pyloric stenosis, congenital duodenal webs, gallstone obstruction (Bouveret syndrome), pancreatic pseudocysts, and bezoars Clinical picture • Longstanding history of PUD • Progressive worsening of ulcer pain and early satiety. • Vomiting after meals of partially digested food without bile ( food eaten earlier the day or the previous day). • Dehydration and severe weight loss. • Visible peristalses of the dilated stomach (rarely). • Succussion splash audible with to and fro movement of abdomen. • Tetany in cases of advanced alkaloses. • Develop hyponatremic, hypokalemic, hypochloremic metabolic alkaloses Management 1) Resussitation initially with 0.9% sodium chloride. Potassium supplementation only after good urine output is established. 2) Gastric lavage with thick stomach tube ( 32 F) to remove food residue. 3) Diagnostic tests after gastric lavage : Gastroscopy with biopsies with or without barium meal to rule out malignancy. 4) 5) IV H2-blockers or proton pump inhibitors. A nasogastric tube is passed. The patient may drink water. The amount of oral intake and drainage is charted. This gives an impression whether the obstruction is resolving. 6) Balloon dilatation of pyloric channel is possible but seldom produces a final solution. 7) Surgery is indicated if the obstruction does not resolve after one week of conservative treatment. Mostly a truncal vagotomy and antrectomy is done although truncal vagotomy with a drainage procedure is sometimes performed. Complications of PUD surgery Complications due to vagotomy • Intraoperative complications can occur with injury to adjacent structures. • Early post-operative complication – delayed gastric emptying – dysphagia and lesser curve necroses( lesser curve necroses specific to HSV). • Late complications include postvagotomy diarrhea, reflux esophagitis and gallstones Complications of gastrectomy • Early complications – bleeding – anastomotic leakage – obstruction – hepatobiliary-pancreatic complications (pancreatitis, bile duct injury) • Late complications are classified as follows : – 1) Ulcer recurrence a) Recurrent ulcer (anastomotic,stomal,marginal) b) gastrojejenocolic fistula 2) Mechanical problems a) Chronic afferent loop obstruction after BII anastomoses – abdominal pain relieved by vomiting , vomit mainly bile without food. b) Chronic efferent loop obstruction c) Internal herniation, jejenogastric intussusception and late gastroduodenal obstruction 3) Pathophysiologic problems Alkaline reflux gastritis – reflux of bile into stomach. Pain not relieved with vomiting. Vomitus contains food and bile. b) Dumping(I)Early dumping – symptoms within 20 minutes after meal. Gastro-intestinal : Abdominal cramps, satiety, nausea, vomiting and explosive diarrhea. Cardiovascular : sweating, dizziness, weakness,dyspnea, palpitations and flushing. a) – Due to sudden release of high osmolality chyme into duodenum with fluid shifts and release of gastro-intestinal hormones. • (II) Late dumping – only vasomotor symptoms. Caused by enteroglucagon secretion which leads to increased and prolonged insulin secretion with resultant hypoglycaemia. 4) Malabsorption and Nutritional problems a) Malabsorption of protein, carbohydrates and fat b) Early satiety c) Anemia : Fe, folate and B12 deficiency. B12 problems mostly after total or near total gastrectomy. d) Osteopmalacia References: 1. Csendes A. Maluenda F. et al.
