Background: Biliary lithiasis is a high prevalence disease among general population being one of the most common surgical cause to attend to ambulatory appointment or to the emergency room. Due to the disease high prevalence and the potential complications, treatment is indicated. The best treatment option is still a matter of debate, admitting either surgical, endoscopic or percutaneous treatment. The aim of this series was to present the surgical management of choledocholithiasis, either as symptomatic presentations or as an incidental finding during intraoperative colangiography, at Surgical Clinic 2, Maciel Hospital. Methods: An electronic search was done among all colecistectomie's records between January 1st and October 7th, 2018, selecting those with choledocholithiasis confirmed by intraoperative cholangiography. Results: 115 colecystectomy were done in the time period previously mentioned, 113 patients had laparoscopic colecistectomies and 2 patients had open conversions, choledocholitiasis was confirmed in 20 cases. Stone clearance was done with Dormia basket, angioplasty balloon catheter, Randall stone forceps and flushing with saline, it was successful in 18 cases. Discussion: Either transcistic or choledochotomy approach allowed to solve the disease in one surgical act. Intraoperative cholangiography was successful in 80% of cases and lithiasis extraction was complete in 90% of cases, no difference with previous published works found. Conclusions: Transcystic or choledochotomy approach is a safe and effective treatment

Itussusception is a rare cause of intestinal occlusion in adults. The clinical case of this condition in an older adult is presented. In this case, computed tomography (CT) identified intussusception and the treatment was an intestinal resection. Pathological anatomy provided the definitive diagnosis. The most frequent etiology of the obstruction corresponds to malignant organic lesions at the level of the colon, and benign in the small intestine. Preoperative diagnosis has now increased, thanks to the advancement of imaging tests. Intestinal resection continues to be the treatment in most cases, due to the high percentage of malignant pathology as the underlying cause.

Background: Treatment of Zenker's diverticulum (DZ) has evolved from open surgery to flexible endoscopy, resulting in lower morbidity and mortality. The endoscopic treatment consists of the cricopharyngealmyotomy using multiple devices. Aim: The purpose of this study is to show a therapeutic alternative for flexible endoscopy for Zenker's diverticulum, using different cutting instruments. Methods: We describe a series of cases of patients diagnosed with Zenker's diverticulum treated by endoscopy, between March 2014 and July 2018. Allprocedures were performed by a single endoscopist. Data from endoscopic records werecollected retrospectively and demographic variables, symptoms, technical aspects, complications and follow-up were analyzed. Results: 12 patients were included, 7 (58%) female, mean age 69 years (range: 53-90). All patients had dysphagia for solids and liquids, 2 patients also had respiratory symptoms. The average size of the diverticula was 3.6 cm. The myotomy was performed with LigaSure in 4 patients, with clutch-cutter in 3 and needle knife in 5 cases. In 11 (91.6%) cases, symptom improvement was obtained, 2 (16%) patients presented recurrence of symptoms during a median follow-up of 9 months. One case (8%) required endoscopoicreintervention to obtain relief of dysphagia. Microperforationwas presented in one patient (8%), which resolved with conservative treatment. Conclusions:Diverticulotomy through flexible endoscopy was effective and safe for the treatment of DZ, so it should be considered in the therapeutic arsenal of this pathology.
