Abstract Introduction: Laparoscopic surgery of postoperative small bowel obstruction had been put into practice. There were some studies on the results in this issue for post appendectomy and gynecology or post cholecystectomy but the results in surgery post upper and/or lower median incision and post cancer digestive or post malignant intra- abdominal operations have not been much studied. In National Cancer Hospital as known as K hospital, laparoscopic surgery of post operative small bowel obstruction due to strangulation , volvulus or simple adhesion (short adhesion) have not been put into operation up to now. We therefore conducted our retrospective study...

Abstract Introduction: Lumbar hernia, also known as lumbar triangle hernia, is a rare type of abdominal wall hernia in clinical practice, so it is difficult to diagnose because it is rarely thought of. The treatment is mainly based on surgery. Open surgery to close the abdominal wall cleft was a classical treatment in the past. Laparoscopic surgery has the potential to substitute open surgery. Case presentation: In this article, we reported a 71-year-old man with a hernia of the upper lumbar triangle undergoing laparoscopic surgery at Viet Duc University Hospital in April 2023. After the surgery, the patient recovered well....

Management of these lesions remains a challenge, and there are few studies on this issue in Vietnam. Subjects and methods: Retrospective study. The 100 patients with naso- orbito-ethmoid (NOE) fractures were hospitalized and treated at the Department of Maxillofacial - Plastic – Aesthetic Surgery of Viet Duc University Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022.

Abstract Introduction: Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus (OLT) is a rare disease in Vietnam, often overlooked in medical facilities. There are many methods of treatment, including ankle arthroscopy. Patients and Methods: The first six patients with OLT underwent arthroscopic hyaluronic acid-based scaffold implantation with microfracture surgery in Viet Duc University Hospital in Vietnam. Three patients have been followed in 6 months using the AOFAS score and MRI. Results: 5/6 patients were men aged between 30 and 40 years old and they play sports regularly. All the patients have passed the other hospital for pain in the ankle with no exact...

Abstract Introduction: Drinking carbohydrate-containing clear liquids until 2 hours before elective procedures improves patient satisfaction and reduces insulin resistance, but the likelihood of delayed gastric emptying, a risk factor of pulmonary aspiration in anesthesia, is unclear. Therefore, we designed a study to assess the effects of drinking carbohydrate-containing clear liquid until 2 hours before the elective gastrointestinal surgery on gastric emptying and gastric residual volume measured by ultrasonography. Patients and Methods: Randomized controlled trial designs including 64 patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery in Viet Duc University Hospital. The intervention group received 400 ml maltodextrin 12.5% in 2 hours prior to surgery,...

Abstract Introduction: Chronic woundsare a global economic burden that have increased the morbidity and mortalityin patients. Chronic wounds present for an extended period of time are more difficult to heal. Nowadays, the application of biotechnology in treatment of chronic wound is a popular trend. We conducted this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in chronic wound treatment Patients and methods: A pilot descriptive longitudinal study was conducted at the Wound Healing Center of the National Burn Hospital from November, 2021 to December, 2022. Thirty patients with 30 chronic wounds were enrolled in the study...

Abstract Introduction: Laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) has become more popular and extensively developed for gastric cancer. However, LAG with D2 lymph node (LN) dissection has not been widely deployed because it is a complex technique and should be performed by experienced laparoscopic surgeons. This study aimed to confirm the feasibility and outcomes of the LAG with D2 dissection for gastric cancer. Patients and Methods: The prospective intervention study included 72 patients with gastric cancer and underwent LAG with D2 LN dissection between April 2017 and October 2021. All patients were operated by the same surgeon who had experience with laparoscopy. LAG...
