    Abstract Background: Laparoscopic resection (LR) is increasingly performed for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). The aim of this study is to investigate the short-term outcomes and therapeutic effects of LR compared to Open Resection (OR) for gastric GISTs.
    Methods: All 12 patients undergoing surgery (LR vs. OR) for gastric GISTs during 2012-2021 in a single center, were analyzed retrospectively. All outcomes were compared between the two groups.
    Results: No statistical significant differences were observed between the two groups (LR vs. OR) as far as operative time (143 vs. 144.5 minutes, P=0.81 NS) blood loss (70 vs. 125 mL, P=0.2 NS), early postoperative complications (2 vs. 1, Fisher 1 P=NS), length of hospital stay (8.5 vs. 14.2 days, P=0.17 NS).
    Conclusions: LR for GISTs is safe and effective. The only limiting factor for the widespread application of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is surgeon expertise in challenging cases.

    Abstract The paradigm of emergency laparotomy with sigmoid resection and protective stoma has been challenged for perforated diverticular disease (PDD) with free extraluminal air. Early clinical stabilization could lead to interval laparoscopic resection without stoma within 2 weeks from perforation. Patients admitted for acute diverticulitis underwent abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan. When free air was seen, endoluminal enema was administred. All patients underwent assessement of clinical stability. In unstable patients, upfront emergency surgery was performed. Stable patients underwent a conservative management consisting in fasting, central line intravenous fluids, antibiotic therapy, pain management, O

    Abstract The spread of SARS-CoV-2 in Italy has been rapid, with over 230.000 infections and 33.000 deaths (May 31st, 2020). The full impact of COVID19 on surgery is still unknown, as its effects on healthcare strategy, hospital infrastructure, staff, regional economy and colorectal disease progression, may not be evident before several months. No systematic reports are available about a higher incidence of COVID19 infections in patients with cancer. However, available data indicate that older people are more vulnerable, particularly when there are underlying health conditions such as chemotherapy or active cancer. Herein, we present the case of a patient with rectal cancer treated with pull-through technique low anterior rectal resection and coloanal anastomosis with protective loop ileostomy, complicated with Sars-CoV-2 infection and late (31st post-operative day) colic ischemia with colo-vaginal fistula. Late intestinal ischemia is a rare complication and can be secondary to several traditional factors, but certainly small vessel thrombosis related to Coronavirus disease must be taken into consideration.

    Abstract Objective: In pregnancies complicated by maternal obesity and diabetes, a disruption in inflammatory mediators occurs, resulting in endothelial microvascular dysfunction, oxidative stress, tissue damage, and maternal and feto-neonatal complications. To outline this proinflammatory status, an innovative approach is represented by the measurement of proinflammatory cytokines. Among these biomarkers, B-cell-activating factor (BAFF) and platelet-activating factor (PAF) play a key role in metabolic regulation, immune response to infections, tissue homeostasis, and "food-related inflammation." The aim of the present study is to investigate the blood expression of BAFF and PAF in a cohort of pregnant women affected by obesity and diabetes compared with a control group of healthy pregnant women.
    Methods: A prospective longitudinal cohort study has been conducted on pregnant women referred to Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Gemelli IRCCS in Rome. For each pregnant woman, a capillary sample was collected with a swab in three different consecutive evaluations carried out in the three trimesters of pregnancy.
    Results: A total of 77 pregnant women have been enrolled. No significant differences in BAFF and PAF levels were longitudinally observed between groups. Focusing on the exposed group, in the third trimester of pregnancy, both PAF and BAFF levels were lower than the basal time. Among the selected group of patients who developed Gestational Diabetes, only PAF values were longitudinally lower when compared to other groups. The multivariate analysis showed that BAFF levels were positively correlated with thyroid-stimulating hormone levels. No macrosomia, no shoulder dystocia, no major perineal lacerations at birth, and no intrauterine growth restriction were observed in the whole population.
    Conclusions: This study supports the involvement of metabolic and proinflammatory biomarkers in the mechanisms related to pregnancy complications. Improving a good metabolic environment for obese and diabetic pregnant women could break the vicious cycle connecting inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic disorders.

    Abstract Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS) is a rare, infectious syndrome related to a mutation in the prion protein gene. Described here are the challenges posed by surgery for a patient with GSS. A 61-yr-old woman with GSS was admitted to this department and underwent surgery twice for large and small bowel obstruction. This is the first report of two major surgical procedures in a patient with GSS. Experiences with this case and precautions when using a disposable device during endotracheal intubation and a surgical procedure to manage a patient with GSS are described.
