    Abstract Introduction: The relationship between the anatomical location of penetrating abdominal stab wounds (SW) and the rate of selective non-operative management (SNOM) based on that location is scarcely reflected in the specialized literature. Our main objective has been to assess this rate based on the anatomical location, and our results.
    Methods: Retrospective review of a prospective registry of abdominal trauma from April 1993 to June 2020. The two study groups considered were the Operative Management (OM), and the SNOM, including in this one the use of diagnostic laparoscopy. Penetrating SWs in the abdomen were classified according to anatomical location.
    Results: We identified 259 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. SNOM was applied in 31% of the patients with a success rate of 96%, and it was more frequent in the lumbar, flank, and thoraco-abdominal regions; within the anterior abdomen it was more applicable in the RH, followed by the LH and epigastrium, respectively. An unnecessary laparotomy was done in 21% of patients, with the highest number in the epigastrium. Taking into account the unnecessary laparotomies and the rates of successful SNOM, 70.5% of lumbar, 66.5% of epigastric, 62% of flank, and 59% of RH penetrating SW could have been managed without a laparotomy.
    Conclusions: SNOM of penetrating SW in the abdomen has been safer and more applicable in those located in the lumbar, flank, epigastric, and RH regions.

    Abstract Purpose: Specific training in the management of trauma patients is beneficial for surgeons. Training through specific courses in this area has a direct impact on the care of these patients. The aim of this work is to understand the participation and specific training in the care of trauma patients by Spanish surgeons.
    Methods: A national survey was conducted and administered to all members of the Spanish Association of Surgeons. The survey assessed their degree of participation in emergency surgery, and therefore the probability of attending trauma patients, their assessment of the initial care of trauma patients in their centre, and their specific training in this field.
    Results: The survey was completed by 510 surgeons from 47 Spanish provinces, with Catalonia and Andalusia being the most represented regions. In total, 456 (89.41%) of those surveyed work in the emergency department on a routine basis. Only 171 (33.53%) refer to having a registry of trauma patients in their hospital. While 79.02% of surgeons reported that general surgeons are not involved in care of severe trauma from the outset, only 66.47% have completed the ATLS course, 40.78% the DSTC course and 18.82% the MUSEC course. Despite this, 85.69% believe that the ATLS course should be compulsory during residency and 43.33% believe that severe trauma care in their hospital is poor or very poor.
    Conclusion: Only 40% have received specific training in definitive surgical management of severe trauma. Despite this, a large percentage of surgeons work in the emergency department on a routine basis and potentially face the challenge of managing these patients.

    Title translation Fracturas de pelvis con hematoma retroperitoneal asociado: tiempo hasta la angioembolización y resultados.
    Abstract Introduction: Two areas of controversy in the management of bleeding pelvic fractures are the need to perform angioembolization (AE) in patients with a retroperitoneal hematoma (RPH) but no contrast extravasation (CE) on Computerized Tomography (CT) and/or angiography, and the delay to AE. Our main objective was to assess whether there had been differences in the percentage and delay to AE between patients admitted on weekdays versus off-hours (weekends and admission after 3pm) at our hospital. Our hypothesis was that angiography and AE would be more frequent on weekdays, and the time delay would be longer during off-hours, with a higher mortality in this latter group for a similar overall severity. A secondary objective was to assess the correlation between CE on CT scan and angiography.
    Methods: Retrospective review of two cohorts of patients with RPH from a pelvic fracture during a period of 24 years. Patients were divided depending on the time of arrival (Group A: weekdays, and Group B: off-hours). The decision to perform angiography and AE was made by the general surgeons on call, in consensus with the interventional radiologist. We analyzed demographics, mechanism of injury, associated injuries, physiologic and anatomic trauma scores, CE on CT scan, need of AE, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay and mortality.
    Results: 104 patients were admitted with RPH from a pelvic fracture. We performed AE in 63 cases (61%). The groups were comparable in the variables analyzed. In 70% of patients in group A, angiography was done, vs 57% in group B, with the same median time delay. CE on CT scan was seen in 53 out of 96 patients and confirmed by angiography in 45 (85%) of them. No significant differences were found in mortality between the two groups.
    Conclusions: There was a short delay from admission to AE, even during off-hours, and a good correlation of CE on CT scan and angiography.

    Abstract New coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection (coronavirus disease 2019 [COVID-19]) has determined the necessity of reorganization in many centers all over the world. Spain, as an epicenter of the disease, has been forced to assume health policy changes in all the territory. However, and from the beginning of the pandemic, every center attending surgical urgencies had to guarantee the continuous coverage adopting correct measures to maintain the excellence of quality of care. This document resumes general guidelines for emergency surgery and trauma care, obtained from the available bibliography and evaluated by a subgroup of professionals designated from the general group of investigators

    Title translation Chronic polyps in the stomach and jejunum in a patient with familial adenomatous polyposis.
    Abstract The management of extracolonic gastrointestinal polyps is controversial in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The treatment of adenomatous polyps with severe dysplasia in the stomach through wide gastric resections can hamper subsequent surveillance of the development of new polyps in the duodenal-jejunal area. We report the exceptional case of a 45-year-old man with FAP who developed two synchronic adenomatous polyps, with severe dysplasia. The first was located in the gastric antrum and the second in the proximal jejunum. Given the preoperative diagnosis of gastric neoplasm with invasion of the gastric wall (T(2)N(0)), subtotal Roux-en-Y gastrectomy and resection of the proximal jejunal segment were performed.

    Abstract Introduction: The concealment of packets of illegal substances within body cavities is a common technique for drug smuggling worldwide. The goal of our study was to analyze the results of conservative treatment of "body packers", indications for surgical intervention, and postoperative morbidity.
    Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients admitted to our hospital and diagnosed as body packers. The diagnostic protocol included an abdominal X-ray and urinalysis for toxic substances. Only patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, signs of intoxication, or a positive urinalysis were admitted for observation. Conservative management included bowel rest and serial abdominal radiographs to confirm the passage per rectum of all foreign bodies. Asymptomatic patients were given laxatives in the emergency department (ED) to promote bowel movements and were not admitted to the hospital.
    Results: A total of 763 body packers were admitted to the hospital, all of whom were initially treated conservatively. Of these patients, 47 (6 %) developed complications: 28 with bowel obstruction, three with bowel perforation, and 16 with substance intoxication. In patients developing complications, urinalysis for toxic substances was negative in 19 (40 %). Sixteen (34 %) patients who developed complications were successfully managed nonoperatively. Three (6 %) other patients died before surgery: two deaths resulted from acute toxicity (one of them with an acute onset and a negative urinalysis) and the third patient died of bowel perforation. Laparotomy was required in 28 (3.5 %) body packers admitted for observation. Enterotomy and/or gastrotomy to remove the packets were the most frequently performed procedures. Postoperative morbidity occurred in 57 % of patients, with wound infection being the most frequent complication.
    Conclusions: Conservative management was effective in 94 % of symptomatic patients. A laparotomy was required in only 3.5 % of cases. The mortality rate in this series was low, resulting from either severe cocaine poisoning from ruptured packets or bowel perforation.

    Abstract Purpose: We report 12 patients with visceral PA following pancreato-biliary and hepatic surgery.
    Results: Seven patients (7/11, 63 %) had developed postoperative complications from their original procedure; that information was missing in one patient. Bleeding occurred in eight (three with hemoperitoneum two with haemobilia, and three with GI bleeding through a biliary-enteric anastomosis), three were asymptomatic, and the other one presented with abdominal pain. Eleven patients had an interventional radiology procedure performed (Five underwent angioembolization, a stent was placed in four, and two patients underwent both procedures). Complications related to the procedure developed in 6 (54.5 %) patients, and surgery was required in four of them.
    Conclusion: Postoperative pseudoaneurysms (PA) of visceral arteries are rare and usually secondary to vascular injury after pancreato-biliary and liver surgery. They usually present with bleeding and nowadays most are amenable to initial control by interventional radiology.
