Laparoscopic "second-look" in the management of mesenteric ischemia
Abstract
Mesenteric ischemia is a major cause of mortality in surgery. Despite the advances in medicine, considerable number of patients undergoes reoperations for a better assessment of intestinal viability. Although great majority of these second-look operations are "negative explorations," progressive nature of this devastating disease pushes surgeons to re-explore the abdomen. This study compares open and laparoscopic "second-look" procedures in patients with mesenteric ischemia. In the first group (n = 41), abdomen was closed and second-look laparotomy was performed to 23 patients. In the second group (n = 36), a 10-mm trocar was inserted before closing the abdomen and second-look intervention was performed by a telescope to 23 patients. Sixteen of relaparotomies in the first group (70%) revealed nothing and were unnecessary. Two patients (8%) in the laparoscopy group needed re-resection while 20 patients (87%) were rescued from unnecessary laparotomies. Conclusively, patients with mesenteric ischemia are "ill enough" to deserve the "minimal invasion" spirit of laparoscopic surgery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
