フククウキョウカ ニ チリョウ シエタ ガイショウセイ ショウチョウ センコウ ノ 1レイ

In this paper the authors report a case of laparoscopic surgery for a blunt abdominal trauma with small bowel injury. The patient, a-24-year-old woman, was admitted to the authors’ hospital. She had abdominal pain caused by blunt abdominal trauma. Physical Examination showed muscular defense and rebound tenderness on the abdomen. A computed tomography showed focal wall thickness and pneumatosis intestinalis in the jejunum, and fluid collection in the pelvis. A preoperative diagnosis was traumatic perforation of jejunum. The authors performed laparoscopic surgery. A3-mm perforation on the jejunum was observed. The authors performed laparoscopic repair of jejunal perforation. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged 9 days after the operation. In selected cases of blunt abdominal trauma, laparoscopic surgery may be a safe and useful procedure

Laparoscopic Synchronous Resection for Descending Colon Cancer and Tailgut Cyst

A 67-year-old woman underwent polypectomy for a tumor at the descending colon. Pathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as adenocarcinoma with an invasion of 2000 μm. Computed tomography showed a swollen paracolic lymph node and a mass lesion in the presacral space. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a multio-cular cystic lesion. On diagnosis of descending colon cancer and tailgut cyst, she underwent synchronous lapa-roscopic resection. Histopathologically, the colon cancer was diagnosed as pT1bN1M0, pStage IIIa. The pre-sacral cystic lesion was diagnosed as a nonmalignant tailgut cyst with negative surgical margin. The patient is currently doing well without recurrence at 28 months
