About this study

Patients presenting intra-abdominal abcesses following bariatric surgery complicated by fistulae are classically treated by external drainage and endoprosthesis or surgical redo. Morbidity and mortality being increased in case of necrotic collections, an endoscopic debridement treatment might be proposed in certain cases. This present study aim to review the evolution of the patients treated by this method from 2007 to 2011 in the investigators institution.

Read the detailed description

This retrospective study in an academic tertiary center will review the files of patients who underwent endoscopic drainage and debridement of abdominal abscesses secondary to bariatric surgery leaks . The decision for endoscopic treatment was made by the medico-surgical team in charge of this type of surgery, who had to weigh the high risk of mortality in case of re-intervention, along with endoscopic access to abscesses via the transluminal or percutaneous route based on abdominal imaging.

Data collection will lead to the evaluation of the technical success rate, the clinical success and potential complications.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • endoscopic drainageProcedure or surgery

    Endoscopic percutaneous access was obtained through surgical drains or after ultrasound-guided percutaneous drainage with a thin scope , and transluminal procedures with large scopes through the leak hole. All the procedures were performed under general anesthesia and carbon dioxide insufflation. Debridement was done by pus aspiration and irrigation.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cases (endoscopic drainage)Septic patients presenting post-bariatric collections related to leaks not adequately drained by percutaneous drain, for whom endoscopic drainage of the collections was performed by transluminal or percutaneous route.
Receives: Procedure: endoscopic drainage

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intervention technical success

    success to pass the scope and perform abcess debridement of the targeted collection

    Measured: during the procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical success

    success to control sepsis after endoscopic drainage

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obesity and Sepsis, run by Erasme University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intervention technical success (time frame: during the procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Oct 2014.
