Effect of intraoperative nerve monitoring on postoperative vocal cord palsy rates after thyroidectomy: European multicentre registry‐based study

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 821-829, October 2020., 2020
The influence of intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) and other factors on the development of postoperative vocal cord palsy (VCP) was assessed using multivariable regression analysis. In a cohort of 4598 patients from 82 hospitals, IONM was used in over 90 per cent of those treated by primary thyroidectomy for underlying benign thyroid disease. IONM

Early operative management in patients with adhesive small bowel obstruction: population‐based cost analysis

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 914-923, October 2020., 2020
This population‐based cost–utility analysis compared early operative management (EOM) for adhesive small bowel obstruction (SBO) to the current standard of care of a trial of non‐operative management. Although EOM was more costly, it was associated with a significantly lower risk of recurrence and reduced exposure to the morbidity and costs associated ...

Total colonic aganglionosis: multicentre study of surgical treatment and patient‐reported outcomes up to adulthood

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 943-953, October 2020., 2020
In a multicentre study, outcome of surgery for total colonic aganglionosis was evaluated in 116 patients. In long‐term follow‐up, patients with a J pouch reconstruction reported better faecal continence and those with a Duhamel reconstruction reported fewer episodes of enterocolitis. Nutritional support was needed extensively in all groups with various
