Intragastric balloons are steadily gaining popularity among the medical treatments available for obesity. Their efficacy and safety are reinforced by growing body of evidence obtained around the globe. Intragastric balloons are now considered one of the safest and most effective medical procedures for weight reduction. Additionally, the reduced potential for side effects and low invasiveness (compared to bariatric surgeries) are important considerations. This book is edited by renowned surgeons and endoscopists from Brazil, a country known for its reputation on the field of bariatric endoscopy and surgery. Such reputation is especially valid where the use of intragastric balloons is concerned. These devices, approved by the FDA only in 2015, have been used in Brazil since the 1990s, attesting to Brazilian expertise in the field. This book describes the various types of intragastric balloons used for the treatment of obesity, an alternative to bariatric surgery and other more invasive methods. It addresses their indications, procedures and outcomes, providing readers an overview of the therapeutic options available worldwide. It is divided into seven main sections: I - Introductory Issues; II - Devices; III - Technical Procedures and Related Issues; IV - Acute Complications and Treatment; V - Chronic Complications and Treatment; VI - Special Populations; and VII - Miscellaneous. This structure helps to promote a better knowledge construction and a reasonable flow of ideas throughout the book, guiding the reader from introductory topics to surgical procedures and complications. The book ultimately intends to offer an essential reference guide for all physicians and surgeons interested in the treatment of obese patients. It is intended for both experienced professionals looking for in-depth information and for trainees and residents seeking to broaden their perspectives concerning the treatment of obesity.

Die Veranderungen im Gesundheitswesen bewirken einen enormen Druck auf die Krankenhauser, so effizient wie moglich zu arbeiten. Das Praxishandbuch fur die Funktionsdienste OP und Anasthesie unterstutzt Pflegende, damit sie den neuen Anforderungen gerecht werden konnen. Die Operationsabteilung ist mit Personaleinsatz und kostenintensivem Materialbedarf der betriebswirtschaftlich teuerste Bereich der Krankenhauser. Bei einem chirurgisch versorgten Patienten entstehen allein 30% der Gesamtkosten im OP. Damit entscheidet die Leistungsfahigkeit des OP-Bereiches wesentlich den finanziellen Erfolg eines Krankenhauses im DRG-System. Um Kosten zu senken, mussen Schnittstellen zu "Nahtstellen" werden. Dies ist besonders im Bereich der standardisierten Operationen moglich und OP- und Anasthesiepflegepersonal muss sich daher interdisziplinar weiterbilden. "

Volker H. Schmitt untersucht die Gewebereaktion auf funf Barrierematerialien histologisch, immunhistochemisch und ultrastrukturell. Der Autor kann zeigen, dass der ultrastrukturelle Befund mit dem makroskopischen Ergebnis korreliert, die effektivste Barriere zeigte das groesste Ausmass an Remesothelialisierung. Eine bislang als negativ interpretierte Inflammation ging mit geringerer Adhasionsbildung einher. Es gab keine Korrelation zwischen dem Vorhandensein CD68-positiver Makrophagen und der Gewebereaktion. Solche Untersuchungen der Biokompatibilitat und Oberflachenmorphologie sind essentiell fur die Weiterentwicklung materialbasierter Ansatze, weg von rein physikalischen Barrieren hin zu funktionalen Biomaterialien im Sinne des Tissue Engineering. Diese Untersuchung ist praxisnah und weiterfuhrend, da durch serosale Schadigung entstehende peritoneale Adhasionen eine haufige Komplikation in der Abdominalchirurgie darstellen.

In diesem essential erhalt der Leser grundlegende Einblicke in die Wirkungsweise der hyperbaren Oxygenation (HBO) auf die verschiedenen Prozesse der Wundheilung. Der Einsatz der HBO bei chronischen Wunden wie dem diabetischen Fusssyndrom sowie strahleninduzierten Gewebsschaden ergibt sich vor allem aus der positiven Beeinflussung der Wundheilungsprozesse uber Induktion von Gefassneubildung und Kollagenisierung. Im Rahmen eines multimodalen Therapiekonzeptes kann die HBO so gezielt bei Wundheilungsstoerungen eingesetzt werden, von denen immungeschwachte Personen mit Diabetes mellitus sowie Tumorpatienten unter Strahlentherapie haufig betroffen sind. Die hier vorliegende Auswertung der klinischen Datenlage der letzten beiden Jahrzehnte bestatigt die positiven HBO-Effekte beim diabetischen Fusssyndrom sowie den verschiedenen Formen der Strahlennekrose.

Andreas Neff zeigt die exzellenten diagnostischen und therapeutischen Optionen der Endoskopie, die fur den MKG-Chirurgen bei der komplexen Anatomie der Mund-Kiefer-Gesichtsregion, speziell der Kieferhoehlen und der Nasengange, des Kiefergelenks, aber auch der Speicheldrusen heute unverzichtbar ist. Minimalinvasive Darstellung und Zugange gemass State of the Art erfordern neben chirurgischem Know-how auch ein spezielles technisches Equipment. Wahrend die Endoskopie in der MKG-Chirurgie meist speziellen Indikationen vorbehalten ist, hat sie insbesondere in der HNO inzwischen einen Grossteil der traditionellen direkten bzw. invasiv-offenen Verfahren ersetzt. Auch in der MKG-Chirurgie wird es analog zu ihren Nachbardisziplinen zunehmend zu Paradigmenwechseln in der Behandlungsstrategie kommen, denen sich die MKG-Chirurgie stellen muss, um sich auch in Zukunft auf Augenhoehe weiterentwickeln zu koennen.
Die Organtransplantation erfordert und erfahrt als jiingstes Gebiet der Chirurgie zunehmend sowohl breitere klinische Anwendung als auch groBeres allgemein arztlich-medizinisches Interesse. Beiden Aufgaben mochte dieses Buch gerecht werden: Detailliert wird einerseits das Vorgehen bei der Nierentransplantation geschil dert, der bislang einzigen Organ transplantation im engeren Sinn, die als klinische Standardbehandlung gelten kann und weite Verbreitung gefunden hat. Anwen dung dieses Verfahrens, Kenntnisse der Problematik und Organgewinnung kon nen somit nicht mehr auf wenige Transplantationseinheiten beschrankt bleiben; speziell auch auBeruniversitare Krankenhauser werden zunehmend an diesen Aufgaben teilnehmen. Auch Organentnahme und andere kooperative Tatigkeiten sind Teil der Transplantationschirurgie. Deshalb werden - etwas abweichend yom strengen Konzept einer Operationslehre - nicht nur die Technik der Trans plantation, sondem auch alle damit verbundenen Gebiete, besonders Indikation, Vorbereitung, Anasthesie, Nachbehandlung sowie Organgewinnung ausfUhrlich behandelt. Urn andererseits einen Oberblick iiber Bedeutung und Entwicklungsstand des gesamten Transplantationsgebietes zu ermoglichen, werden die Transplanta tionen anderer Organe und Gewebe jeweils im Prinzip dargestellt. Eingeschlossen sind auch Transplantationen, die auBerhalb des Bereiches der Chirurgie liegen, wie die von Homhaut, Gehorknochelchen und Knochenmark. We iter ist die Transplantationschirurgie derzeit wohl noch starker als andere Bereiche der Chirurgie mit der Grundlagenforschung auch der Nachbardisziplinen, hier be sonders der Immunologie, verflochten. 1m ersten, allgemeinen Teil des Buches werden deshalb die fUr die Organtransplantation generell giiltigen Bereiche der Immunologie, der Histokompatibilitatsbestimmung, der Organkonservierung und der Morphologie der AbstoBungsreaktion dargestellt."
