TREATMENT OF JEJUNAL DUODENAL ANASTOMOSIS DEHISCENCE WITH ENDOSCOPIC VACUUM THERAPY

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the treatment of dejunal duodenal anastomosis dehiscence with endoscopic vacuum therapy (EVT). The case presented is of an 81-year-old woman who experienced weight loss and stool consistency changes. After diagnostic tests, it was discovered that she had an invasive adenocarcinoma in the colon and rectum. Following surgery to remove the lesions, complications arose, including duodenal injury, leading to a need for repair and subsequent dehiscence. EVT was then utilized, using a nesogastric tube with negative pressure to promote healing. The patient showed improvement and was eventually discharged. The video highlights the potential of EVT as a treatment option for anastomosis dehiscence when surgical and conservative treatments fail.<br /><br />Credits: <br />Primary author: Marcos Eduardo Leira dos Santos.<br />Co-authors: Igor Proença, Fernando Pontineto, Gabriel Souza, Antonio Madruga Neto, Facundo Galetti, Epifanio Monte Jr., Diogo de Moura, Igor Braga, Eduardo de Moura.
