Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Fibrin glue is a therapeutic for fistulas that activates thrombin to form a fibrin clot, which mechanically seals the fistula tract. We assessed the efficacy and safety of a heterologous fibrin glue that was injected into the fistula tracts of patients with Crohn's disease (ClinicalTrials.gov No. NCT00723047). METHODS This multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial included patients with a Crohn's disease activity index < or =250 and fistulas between the anus (or low rectum) and perineum, vulva, or vagina, that drained for more than 2 months. Magnetic resonance imaging or endosonography was performed to assess fistula tracts and the absence of abscesses. Patients were stratified into groups with simple or complex fistulas and randomly assigned to receive fibrin glue injections (n = 36) or only observation (n = 41) after removal of setons. The primary end point was clinical remission at week 8, defined as the absence of draining, perianal pain, or abscesses. At week 8, a fibrin glue injection was offered to patients who were not in remission. RESULTS Clinical remission was observed in 13 of the 34 patients (38%) of the fibrin glue group compared with 6 of the 37 (16%) in the observation group; these findings demonstrate the benefit of fibrin glue (odds ratio, 3.2; 95% confidence interval: 1.1-9.8; P = .04). The benefit seemed to be greater in patients with simple fistulas. Four patients in the fibrin glue group and 6 in the observation group had adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Fibrin glue injection is a simple, effective, and well-tolerated therapeutic option for patients with Crohn's disease and perianal fistula tracts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated an increased perioperative opioid requirement during inflammatory disease. To evaluate the influence of the inflammatory process, we studied in the same patient the sufentanil requirement during procedures that occur during two distinct phases of ulcerative colitis with different inflammatory profiles: (1) left colectomy for major colitis unresponsive to medical treatment during acute inflammation and (2) coloprotectomy with ileoanal anastomosis, three months after recovery of the acute inflammatory episode. METHODS Sixteen patients with clinical and histological evidence of ulcerative colitis scheduled for colectomy with ileoanal anastomosis were included. For each surgical procedure, anaesthesia was induced with sufentanil 0.5 microg kg(-1) and propofol 2 mg kg(-1). Patients were ventilated with 50% nitrous oxide and oxygen, and tidal volume was adjusted to keep end-tidal CO2 at 30 mmHg. Anaesthesia was maintained with end-tidal isoflurane at 0.5%. Analgesia was achieved with continuous infusion of sufentanil at 0.3 microg kg(-1) h(-1). Additional boluses of sufentanil and increases in infusion rates were used when haemodynamic variables increased to more than 20% of preoperative values. Sufentanil consumption during surgery was analysed by Wilcoxon signed rank sum test. P < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Total intra-operative sufentanil requirement was significantly larger during colectomy performed for acute inflammatory colitis than during ileoanal anastomosis performed after the inflammatory process (1.24 +/- 0.48 microg kg(-1) h(-1) vs. 0.62 +/- 0.3 microg kg(-1) h(-1); P < 0.05). CONCLUSION For the same patient, inflammatory status influences opioid requirements during surgery for ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Before extended hepatectomy of five or more segments, the remnant liver volume (RLV) is usually calculated as a ratio of RLV to total liver volume (RLV-TLV) and must be >20% to 25%. This method can lead to compare parts of normal liver parenchyma to others compromised by biliary or vascular obstruction or by portal vein embolization. Extrapolating from living-donor liver transplantation, we hypothesized that RLV to body weight ratio (RLV-BWR) could accurately assess the functional limit of hepatectomy. STUDY DESIGN From September 2000 to December 2004, volumetric measurements of RLV using computed tomography were obtained before right-extended hepatectomy in 31 patients. RLV-BWR of 0.5% as a critical point for patient course was compared with stratification by RLV-TLV (< or =25% or >25% and < or =20% or >20%). RESULTS Three-month morbidity and mortality were not significantly different between groups RLV-TLV < or = and >25% and between groups RLV-TLV < or = and >20%, but increased significantly in group RLV-BWR < or = 0.5% compared with group RLV-BWR > 0.5% (p = 0.038 and p = 0.019, respectively) with an non-significant increase in death from liver failure (p = 0.077). CONCLUSIONS RLV-BWR was more specific than RLV-TLV in predicting postoperative course after extended hepatectomy. Patients with an anticipated RLV < or = 0.5% of body weight are at considerable risk for hepatic dysfunction and postoperative mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Restorative proctocolectomy with ileoanal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical standard for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Significant reduction in female fertility and fecundity after IPAA has been shown in recent studies. In selected cases, colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (IRA) is another surgical option. The aim of this study was to evaluate fertility in women with UC who underwent IRA. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included all women with UC who underwent IRA between 1962 and 1999 and who were 40 years old or younger at the time of surgery, and older than 18 years of age at the time of the interview. Data were collected using a structured telephone interview concerning reproductive behavior and waiting times to pregnancy. RESULTS Among 40 eligible patients, 37 whose mean age at IRA was 28 years (range 11-39) answered the questionnaire. Twenty-two were unmarried, not wishful of pregnancy and/or already had children. Among 15 females wishing children after IRA, 10 (66%) became pregnant: one had therapeutic abortion, two had a miscarriage, four had 1 child, two had 2 children and one had 4 children. Five patients were sterile after IRA. CONCLUSION These preliminary results suggest that IRA for UC preserves female fertility. If confirmed in other series this information should be provided to young women with UC before deciding surgical option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data concerning small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) in Crohn's disease (CD) come from case reports and small retrospective series. The aim of this study was to further describe SBA in patients with CD and compare it with SBA de novo. METHODS Twenty patients with CD with SBA recruited in French university hospitals were studied and compared with 40 patients with SBA de novo recruited from a population-based registry. SBA occurred after a median time of 15 years of CD and was located within the inflamed areas of the ileum (n=19) or jejunum (n=1), whereas in patients with SBA de novo, it was distributed all along the small intestine. Median age at diagnosis of SBA was 47 years (range, 33-72 yr) in patients with CD and 68 years (range, 41-95 yr) in those with SBA de novo. RESULTS The cumulative risk of SBA, assessed in a subgroup of patients, was 0.2% and 2.2% after 10 and 25 years of ileal CD, respectively. SBA accounted for 25% and 45% of the risk of gastrointestinal carcinoma after 10 and 25 years of CD, respectively. Diagnosis was made preoperatively in 1/20 patients with CD and 22/40 patients with SBA de novo. Signet ring cells were found in 35% of patients with CD but not in patients with SBA de novo. Relative survival was not significantly different in these 2 categories of patients (54 versus 37% and 35 versus 30% in patients with and without CD at 2 and 5 yr, respectively). CONCLUSIONS SBA in CD is different from SBA de novo. It arises from longstanding ileal inflammation and is difficult to diagnose. SBA cumulative risk increases after 10 years of CD and is likely to cause premature mortality in patients with early-onset CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Inflammation promotes hyperalgesia and increases opioid binding protein (alpha1-acid glycoprotein) inducing increased opioid requirement. To investigate the influence of an acute episode of inflammatory bowel disease in opioid requirement during major abdominal surgery, 17 patients with Crohn's disease, 12 patients with ulcerative colitis and seven patients without any inflammatory process (control group) were prospectively studied. Sufentanil requirements were assessed during surgery. METHODS Sufentanil administration was adjusted when haemodynamic variables changed more than 20% of preoperative values. In a subgroup of 20 patients (Crohn's disease: 7, ulcerative colitis: 7, control group: 6), plasma concentrations of alpha1-acid glycoprotein and unbound sufentanil were measured. Total plasma clearance of sufentanil was also determined. Data presented as median (25-75 per thousand) were analysed by non-parametric and ANOVA tests. RESULTS Despite similar surgery duration, intraoperative sufentanil requirements were significantly larger in both the Crohn's disease group (0.9 (0.6-1.6) microg kg(-1) h(-1)) and the ulcerative colitis group (1.1 (0.6-1.7) microg kg(-1) h(-1)) than in the control group (0.5 (0.4-0.5) microg kg(-1) h(-1)). Total plasma clearance of sufentanil was larger in patients with inflammatory bowel disease than in the control group. The plasma alpha1-acid glycoprotein concentration was increased in the inflammatory bowel disease group. However, the free fraction of sufentanil was similar in all three groups. The largest sufentanil consumption in patients with inflammatory bowel disease was observed during time of pain stimulation in the area of referred hyperalgesia from the affected viscus. In the control group, the sufentanil requirement was constant throughout surgery. CONCLUSION Inflammatory bowel disease increases opioid requirement during major abdominal surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Liver inflammation, fibrosis, and dyslipidemia are common features in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Because peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is highly expressed in the liver and is involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism and inflammation, we sought to determine whether HCV infection may locally impair PPARalpha expression and activity. METHODS PPARalpha expression was investigated in liver biopsy specimens of 86 untreated patients with HCV infection and controls, by using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry. PPARalpha activity was assessed by quantification of the key gene target carnitine palmitoyl acyl-CoA transferase 1 (CPT1A) messenger RNA (mRNA). The influence of HCV core protein on PPARalpha mRNA expression was analyzed in vitro by real-time PCR in HCV core-expressing HepG2 cells activated with the PPARalpha ligand fenofibric acid. RESULTS Hepatic concentrations of PPARalpha and CPT1A expressed by hepatocytes were impaired profoundly in the livers of untreated patients with HCV infection compared with controls. A mean decrease of 85% in PPARalpha mRNA expression paralleled with a lack of CPT1A mRNA induction also were observed in HCV core-expressing HepG2 cells compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS HCV infection is related to altered expression and function of the anti-inflammatory nuclear receptor PPARalpha. These results identify hepatic PPARalpha as one mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of HCV infection, and as a new therapeutic target in traditional treatment of HCV-induced liver injury.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY To analyze the predictive value of computed tomography (CT) and initial physiologic and laboratory data findings in the immediate operative (OP) or non-operative (NOP) management of blunt liver injury (BL). METHODS Eighty-eight BL, grade III (51), grade IV (28) and nine grade V (9), aged 26.2 years (16-75) were identified. Hemoperitoneum on CT, hemodynamic status, physiologic and laboratory data <24 hours or preoperative (transfusion, vascular filling) and follow-up >48 hours were analyzed. RESULTS Data of 71/88 (80%) NOP and 17/88 (20%) OP patients were reviewed. A secondary laparotomy or laparoscopy was necessary in 11/71 TNO. Six OP (35%) and 1 NOP patients died. Blood units transfused were 1.33 (0-10) vs 5.9 (0-22) and vascular filling 1.45 (0.5-5.5) vs 3.6L (2-12) (P<10(-6), P<4.10(-3) respectively). NOP patients had less severe hemoperitoneum (31 vs 94%, P<10(-5)) and hemodynamic instability (8.5 vs 94%, P<10(-4)). But, there was an overlap of values of blood units transfused, amount of vascular filling and initial haemoglobin levels between NOP and OP patients and among CT grades of liver injury. No cut-off values could be determined: 33% NOP received >4 blood units and >3 L vascular filling; 30% had severe hemoperitoneum. In OP group 23.5% patients had lower values and no severe hemoperitoneum. CONCLUSION In the management of BL, vascular filling and blood transfusion increased with the grade of CT liver injury and were globally more elevated in the operative group but did not individually correlate with hemodynamic stability and did not authorize, by themselves, to decide between operative versus non-operative management.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY To review our global management of duodenal adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis and report the results of different therapeutic approaches. To present the outcome and possible sequels of pancreaticoduodenectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified five cases of duodenal adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis over a period of 10 years (1992-2001), we followed the progression of their Spigelman score. Results of conservative and surgical treatment were collected. RESULTS Duodenal adenomas were discovered 5-33 years after the first operation for colonic polyposis. The score of Spigelman was as follows: 2, stage 2; 3, stage 3; 1, stage 4. Endoscopic laser therapy followed by Sulindac prescription was proposed in three cases, with only one success. Duodenopancreatectomy was performed in four patients: once the diagnosis of adenoma was made in one patient, due to Spigelman stage 4 with severe dysplasia, because development of intramucosal carcinoma under surveillance in one patient, and after failure or complication of conservative treatment in two others. Worsening of Spigelman score was observed in two out of four patients submitted to conservative therapy. Correlation between Spigelman score and final examination of the specimen was correct in two cases. There was neither significant morbidity nor long-term nutritional sequel after pancreaticoduodenectomy. CONCLUSION Duodenal adenomas may recur or progress into malignant degeneration under conservative treatment. The pancreaticoduodenectomy is an acceptable solution for stage 4 of Spigelman, especially when severe dysplasia is present.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of percutaneous transhepatic management (PTM) of anastomotic biliary strictures (BS). Among 168 liver transplant adult recipients, BS was identified in 30 patients. In 6 patients, narrowing of the anastomosis was found early, and in all cases disappeared spontaneously with prolonged draining of the bile tube. Within a mean time of 14 months after transplantation, 24 patients had symptomatic BSs, revealed by cholestasis (n = 17) or cholangitis (n = 7). Twenty-two patients underwent PTM as first treatment of BS (balloon dilatation or stent placement). We evaluated the primary and secondary patency rate of PTM. In 1 patient, PTM failed because the stricture could not be passed with the guide wire, necessitating conversion to a Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy (CDJ). Fourteen patients were treated by percutaneous balloon dilatation from which 8 patients (57.2%) were recurrence-free with a mean follow-up of 61 months. One patient with a patent biliary anastomosis underwent retransplantation for acute rejection. Twelve patients received metallic expandable stent placement as their primary treatment (n = 7) or after failure of balloon dilatation (n = 5). Recurrent stricture was found in 7 cases (58%) and was treated by PTM (n = 6) or surgery (n = 1). The primary patency rate for PTM was 58.8% at 12 months and the secondary patency rate 88.4%, with a mean follow-up of 47 months (median: 44 months). The mortality rate was 3.5% (one death). PTM with balloon dilatation, stent placement, or both, represent a safe method to treat anastomotic BSs after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) resulting in a secondary patency rate of 88% at 5 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate advantages and drawbacks of a controlled conservative management of patients with severe gastric caustic injuries. METHODS Among 40 patients with severe caustic gastric burns (> IIb), 28 with stade III lesions (mosaic necrosis: n = 10, extensive or circumferential necrosis: n = 18) were managed prospectively from 1990 to 1998. Twenty-two patients had associated stage III oesophageal lesions and 6 had stage III duodenal lesions. All patients were followed up by daily surgical examination. Total gastrectomy with esophageal exclusion or stripping was performed in case of perforation. RESULTS Five immediate and 7 secondary total gastrectomies, two associated esophagectomies and two jejunal resections were performed. Mortality rate was 18% (5/28). Sixteen gastric preservations (60%) were achieved, including 7 complete and 9 partial because of gastric stricture. Eighteen esophagoplasties for oesophageal strictures or after gastrectomy were performed without mortality. CONCLUSION Stage III caustic injuries of the stomach, when they are not immediately life-threatening, do not systematically require total gastrectomy. A strict conservative attitude can be done with significant morbidity and acceptable mortality and significantly raises the numbers of preserved stomach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bacterial agents have been implicated in the early recurrence of Crohn's disease after ileocolectomy. The aim of our study was to identify and quantify bacteria associated with the ileal mucosa in patients and controls and to correlate specific bacteria with recurrence. METHODS The predominant bacterial microflora of the ileum were enumerated and identified, aerobically and anaerobically, in biopsies obtained at the time of surgery or by endoscopy from 61 patients with Crohn's disease and 10 ileocolectomy controls. The 61 specimens were comprised of 13 ileal biopsies taken from resection specimens, seven taken after ileostomy, and 41 taken after ileocolectomy. RESULTS Ileocolectomy induced a significant increase in bacterial counts and variety in the neoterminal ileum in both patients and controls that was not observed in ileostomy biopsies. Comparison between patients and controls revealed greater numbers of Escherichia coli and enterococci in Crohn's disease and of bifidobacteria and ruminococci in controls. Early recurrence was associated with high counts of E. coli and bacteroides and the frequent isolation of fusobacteria. CONCLUSION After ileocolectomy, colonization of the neoterminal ileum is increased. Our data suggest that increases in the populations of specific bacteria such as E. coli, enterococci, bacteroides, and fusobacteria may be important in postoperative recurrence of Crohn's disease.

Abstract
The nutritional status of the donor has been shown to affect the outcome of liver transplantation in the rat. It has been proposed that this may be due to inhibition of Kupffer cell induced injury to the reperfused organ, which leads to an inflammatory type response. In this study we investigated how altering the nutritional status of the recipient affects the outcome of liver transplantation after preservation of the liver for 44 or 48 h in the University of Wisconsin (UW) solution. The nutritional status of the rats was altered by either fasting or by feeding an essential fatty acid free diet (EFAD) for 2 months. This type of diet has been shown to reduce significantly the inflammatory response in rats. Survival after 44-h preservation of livers from fed donors (fed a standard laboratory diet) transplanted to fed recipients was 29% (2/7) but increased to 80% (4/5) when the recipient was fed the EFAD diet. After 48-h preservation, there were no survivors under either of these two dietary combinations. However, survival was 100% after 48-h preservation if the donor had been fasted for 4 days and the recipient was fed the EFAD. These results showed that the nutritional status of the donor and recipient are important factors in the outcome of liver transplantation. How nutritional factors affect liver preservation and transplantation are not clear but may be related to the inflammatory response regulated by Kupffer cells and circulating neutrophils in the liver, both of which are influenced by the diet of the animal.

Abstract
Liver grafts are spontaneously accepted in several animal combinations and are able to induce acceptance of another organ originating from the same donor, which would be rejected when transplanted alone. However, the exact mechanism of this unique tolerance induction capability remains unclear. The aim of our study was to investigate the ability of nonparenchymal liver cells to induce tolerance when they were separated from their parenchymal environment. In the murine combination we used (BN --> LEW), heart transplants were constantly tolerated after combined liver plus heart grafting, but rejected when transplanted alone. Nonparenchymal liver cells were isolated from BN rat livers by enzymatic digestion and injected, at different times, to LEW rats, which were recipients of BN heart transplants. The average number of mononuclear cells obtained after isolation was 20 x 10(6)/5 g of rat liver. Immediate trypan-blue exclusion test showed more than 95% of viable cells. Phenotypic studies showed a predominant (47%) lymphocyte population, 7% were monocytes and 46% were cellular debris. Among the lymphocyte population, the majority of cells were bearing the NKR-P1 receptor and about 30% CD3 receptors. Inoculation of nonparenchymal liver cells 7 and 30 days prior to heart transplantation significantly prolonged graft survival compared to controls (14.6 and 12.7 vs. 8.1 days; p = 0.0008 and 0.0059, respectively), whereas simultaneous injection (day 0) had no effect. Injection of donor splenocytes or nonparenchymal liver cells from a third party, at any time, had no effect on rejection. These results provide some more evidence about the specific role of liver lymphocytes in allogenic unresponsiveness. They also suggest that the hepatic parenchymal environment is necessary for the optimal development of this phenomenon.

Abstract
Distinct Th1/Th2 patterns have been observed during the evolution of CD. The aim of this study was to compare neutrophil involvement and IL-8 mRNA and protein expression during early recurrent lesions and chronic phases of CD. Twenty-nine patients with CD having ileocolonic resection with anastomosis were studied. Biopsies were obtained during surgery from the non-inflamed ileal mucosa and from chronic ileal lesions. Endoscopic ileal biopsies were also taken from early recurrent ileal lesions occurring 3 months after surgery. Neutrophil counts were performed and mucosal IL-8 levels were evaluated by competitive reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. Early recurrent ileal lesions were characterized by low neutrophil counts and IL-8 production at the mRNA and protein levels compared with the ileal chronic lesions. The main cellular sources of IL-8 in the early recurrent lesions were neutrophils, while in chronic lesions the majority of IL-8-stained cells were CD3+ T cells and macrophages. These results confirmed that the nature of the inflammatory infiltrate and the expression of cytokine profiles may differ between the acute and chronic phases of CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease is associated with vascular injury and dysregulation of the intestinal immune system which together can provide disturbance of mesenteric circulation functional properties. AIM To evaluate the vascular reactivity of mesenteric arteries from patients with Crohn's disease. METHODS Phenylephrine-induced contractions were assessed from 10 patients with Crohn's disease and 8 control organ donors. NG-nitro-L-arginine-methyl-ester (L-NAME) was used to test the presence of inducible NO synthase. Endothelium dependent and independent relaxation was assessed using acetylcholine, bradykinin, calcium ionophore A23187 and sodium nitroprusside. RESULTS The contractile response to phenylephrine was significantly decreased in arteries without endothelium from patients with Crohn's disease. Exposure to the NO synthase inhibitor L-NAME restored the contractile response to phenylephrine. Relaxation remained unaltered in both groups. CONCLUSION These data provide direct evidence for fading of contraction caused by phenylephrine in Crohn's disease. The restored mesenteric artery tone by a specific NO synthase inhibitor suggests that an increased production for NO in vascular smooth muscle might be responsible of this altered vascular reactivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucosal lesions of pouchitis are characterized by a neutrophil infiltrate. Interleukin (IL)-8 is the main mediator involved in neutrophil recruitment and is down-regulated by IL-10. AIM To look for an imbalance between IL-8 and IL-10 in patients with pouchitis. PATIENTS/METHODS 18 patients having an ileoanal pouch for ulcerative colitis were studied. Eleven had pouchitis defined by the pouchitis disease activity index of > or =7 points and 7 had no history of pouchitis. Biopsies taken at the site of inflammation or in the normal mucosa were scored for the histologic lesions, the intensity of neutrophil infiltration, and the presence of crypt abscesses. Mucosal IL-8 and IL-10 mRNA were quantified by competitive polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS IL-8, IL-10, and IL-10/IL-8 mRNA were similar in patients with or without pouchitis. IL-8 mRNA levels were significantly higher in patients with a histologic score >2 (p = 0.01) and in patients with crypt abscesses (p = 0.01). IL-10/IL-8 mRNA was significantly lower in patients having a histologic score >2 (p = 0.019), a neutrophil infiltration > or =10% (p = 0.013), and crypt abscesses (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Histologic lesions of pouchitis are associated with a mucosal imbalance between IL-8 and IL-10. IL-10 could be proposed as a new treatment for pouchitis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The objective was to evaluate the reliability and safety of laparoscopic ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS From June 1995 to February 1999, 40 patients underwent a laparoscopic ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease. Fistulizing disease, phlegmons and patients with previous laparotomy were excluded. Early morbidity, postoperative comfort and clinical recurrence were rates evaluated. RESULTS No intra-operative incident or conversion occurred. Mean operating time was 163 min. Complications occurred in three patients: 1 pelvic hematoma with super-infection, 1 protracted ileus (7 days), 1 venous thrombosis. Opiate analgesics were used for a mean period of 3.1 days. Delay before bowel movements was 3.2 days. Post-operative hospital stay was 8 days. Mean size of the wound was 4.1 cm. Twelve patients (30%) developed long-term clinical recurrence; the mean disease-free interval was 10 months. No patient required secondary re-operation. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic ileocolic resection was reliable and safe in the treatment of Crohn's ileal strictures. The possible role of this method in the treatment of fistulizing disease or recurrence has to be evaluated.

Abstract
We report a case of malignant mesenchymoma developed in the mesentery in a 62-year-old man with no past history. It was an huge mass in the mesentery of the ileum. The tumor was composed of areas of chondrosarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma in addition to an undifferentiated fusiform component. Malignant mesenchymoma is a rare sarcoma occurring preferentially in the retroperitoneum or the thigh. The location in the mesentery is exceptional. Malignant mesenchymoma is discussed more particularly with dedifferentiated liposarcoma with heterologous elements. The patient is alive without recurrence three years after surgery.

Abstract
We evaluated the reliability and immediate results of celioscopic management of acute small bowel obstruction. From January 1995 to April 1998, 39 patients underwent a primary celioscopic procedure for small bowel obstruction. The most common etiology was post operative adhesions (34 patients). The whole operation could be carried out exclusively by celioscopy in 22 patients (56%). A laparotomy had to be performed in 17 patients due to: impossibility to identify or treat the cause of obstruction, bowel necrosis or intraoperative complication (3 bowel wounds). Post operative complications were: 1 death (not directly related to the surgical procedure), 2 early recurrences of obstruction after exclusive celioscopy, 1 evisceration after laparotomy and 1 small bowel fistula after conversion to laparotomy. Mean hospital stay was 5 days after exclusive celioscopy and 9.5 days after conversion to laparotomy. Celioscopic management of small bowel obstruction is feasible, but it is often difficult and may be hazardous; a careful selection of patients must be made, based on the importance of obstruction and the type of previous abdominal surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Five-year survival after simple resection of liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma ranges from 20 to 40%. The aim was to study the reliability and long term results of adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy after resection of colorectal liver metastases. PATIENTS AND METHOD From 1991 to 1997, 30 patients after a complete resection of liver metastases from colorectal cancer were included (16 men, 14 women, mean age: 62 years). There were 2 stage I, 19 stages II, 2 stages III, 5 stages IV and 2 stages V according to Gayowski staging system. During laparotomy, a catheter was placed in the gastroduodenal artery in order to perfuse the proper hepatic artery. Chemotherapy included 5 Fluorouracil (12 mg/m2) and Leucovorin (200 mg/m2) and was administered once a week during six months. Mean follow-up was 52 months. RESULTS Adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy had to be interrupted before six months in 9 patients because leukopenia (n = 2), infection or obstruction of the catheter (n = 5), duodenal migration of the catheter (n = 1) and occurrence of multiple extrahepatic metastases (n = 1). No death was in relation with the method. Five-year survival rate was 41.8% for the global series. Five-year disease free survival rate was 21.4%. Causes of death were: hepatic recurrence only (n = 3), extrahepatic + hepatic recurrence (n = 4), extrahepatic recurrence (n = 2). Two patients died of another carcinoma (esophagus, ovary), without evidence of recurrence of the colorectal carcinoma. At the present, there is a recurrence in 4 living patients. CONCLUSION Although the benefit on survival is not significant, these results suggest a longest time of remission in patients with adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy. Trials comparing and/or combining this method to intravenous chemotherapy should be proposed in patients after resection of colorectal liver metastases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The distribution of the intestinal vascular lesions and their relation with the fibrinolysis process are poorly known in Crohn's disease (CD). The mediators of the plasminogen activator system, namely urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA), tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1), are a key complex involved in fibrinolysis. The aims of this study were: (1) to further define vascular lesions and their distribution in the intestine; and (2) to study concomitantly the qualitative in situ expression and the levels of u-PA, t-PA and PAI-1 in the ileum of patients with CD. PATIENTS AND METHODS Histological, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural studies of vascular lesions in the resected ileum of 27 patients with CD were performed and compared with 36 control patients. Levels of u-PA, t-PA and PAI-1 measured by ELISA methods were compared in healthy and inflamed ileal tissues of 17 patients with CD. RESULTS Acute vascular lesions involving mainly serosal venules and capillaries were present in 63% of patients with CD vs 3/36 controls and were associated with PAI-1 expression. They were prominent on the mesenteric border beneath macroscopically normal mucosa. In contrast, chronic vascular lesions were present in all layers beneath mucosal ulcerations, where a significant increase of PAI-1 levels was found. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that vascular involvement associated with abnormalities of PAI-1 expression is an early and widespread event in CD. Their prominence on the mesenteric border might explain the characteristic location of CD ulceration along the mesenteric margin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Abnormalities of fat in the mesentery including adipose tissue hypertrophy and fat wrapping have been long recognized on surgical specimens as characteristic features of Crohn's disease. However, the importance, origin, and significance of the mesenteric fat hypertrophy in this chronic inflammatory disease are unknown. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is a crucial factor involved in the homeostasis of adipose tissue, a major source of biologically active mediators. METHODS Intra-abdominal fat accumulation was quantified using a magnetic resonance imaging method in patients with Crohn's disease and controls. PPARgamma and inflammatory cytokines synthesized by mesenteric adipose tissues were assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS In vivo, patients with Crohn's disease have an important accumulation of intra-abdominal fat. This mesenteric obesity, present from the onset of the disease, is associated with overexpression of PPARgamma and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, synthesized, at least in part, by adipocytes. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that confined increased PPARgamma mesenteric concentrations could lead to the mesenteric fat hypertrophy, which could actively participate through the synthesis of TNF-alpha in the inflammatory response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES An excluded rectum may be at risk of carcinoma in the course of Crohn's disease. Surveillance of patients requires detection of dysplasia. The aim of our study was to determine the frequency of dysplasia from secondary proctectomy specimens in active rectal Crohn's disease. METHODS Twenty three patients (13 women and 10 men, median age 38 years) were studied. The median duration of rectal exclusion was four years. Detection of dysplasia relied upon histopathology. Immunohistochemistry with MIB-1 (Ki-67) and anti-p53 (clone DO7) antibodies was performed as well. RESULTS Frequency of dysplasia was 30%. This was low grade dysplasia, focally observed in proctectomy specimens. MIB-1 was positive on 46% of dysplastic cells. There was no expression of p53 protein. CONCLUSIONS These results must be taken into account for decision of secondary proctectomy, in patients having an excluded rectum for Crohn's disease, when ileorectal anastomosis is not possible. Rectal endoscopic surveillance is advisable with multiple biopsies according to focal distribution of dysplasia.

Abstract
Alterations in the structure and/or quantity of mucins could alter the barrier function of mucus and play a role in initiating and maintaining mucosal inflammation in Crohn's disease. To investigate the hypothesis of a mucin gene defect in Crohn's disease, we analyzed the expression of the different mucin genes in the ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease and controls. mRNA expression levels were assessed by a quantitative dot blot analysis and compared (i) between healthy and involved ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease and (ii) between healthy mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease and controls. Expression of the different mucin genes was heterogeneous among controls and patients with Crohn's disease, except for MUC6 in controls. Nevertheless, MUC1 mRNA expression was significantly decreased in the involved ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease when compared to the healthy mucosa (p = 0.02). Moreover, the expression levels of MUC3, MUC4, and MUC5B were significantly lower in both healthy and involved ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease compared to controls (p < or = 0.05). The decrease of expression levels of some mucin genes (more particularly MUC3, MUC4, and MUC5B) in both healthy and involved ileal mucosa suggests a primary or very early mucosal defect of these genes in CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Infectious agents are suspected of being involved in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease. This study was designed to look for the presence of virulent Escherichia coli strains associated with the ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease. METHODS E. coli strains were recovered from resected chronic ileal lesions (n = 20), neoterminal ileum after surgery from patients with (n = 19) and without (n = 11) endoscopic recurrence, and controls (n = 13). Bacterial adhesion was determined in vitro using intestinal cell lines; other associated virulence factors were assessed by DNA hybridization and polymerase chain reaction experiments. RESULTS None of the strains harbored any of the virulence factor-encoding genes of E. coli involved in acute enteric diseases. However, mannose-resistant adhesion to differentiated Caco-2 cells was found for 84.6% and 78.9% of the E. coli strains isolated from chronic and early recurrent lesions, respectively, compared with 33% of controls (P < 0.02). In addition, 21.8% of the strains induced a cytolytic effect by synthesis of an alpha-hemolysin. CONCLUSIONS E. coli strains isolated from the ileal mucosa of patients with Crohn's disease adhere to differentiated intestinal cells and may disrupt the intestinal barrier by synthesizing an alpha-hemolysin.

Abstract
STUDY AIM Gastrointestinal bleeding by rupture of splanchnic artery aneurysms is very rare. The aim of this study is to report four cases observed between 1990 and 1996. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the first case, the celiac trunk aneurysm was revealed by hematemesis due to erosion of the posterior wall of the stomach. Excision of the aneurysm associated with splenopancreatectomy was followed by revascularization of the common hepatic artery with a bypass implanted in the aorta. The second case concerned a splenic artery aneurysm revealed by hemosuccus pancreaticus and intestinal bleeding which was treated by excision and splenopancreatectomy. In the third case, the common hepatic artery aneurysm revealed by hemosuccus pancreaticus and intestinal bleeding was treated by obstructive endoaneurysmorrhaphy. The fourth case concerned a superior mesenteric aneurysm revealed by duodenal erosion causing gastric and intestinal bleeding, which was treated by obstructive endoaneurysmorrhaphy and revascularization of the mesenteric artery by a spleno-mesenteric bypass. RESULTS Surgical treatment was successful in all four patients. In the first case, an acute acalculous cholecystitis required a cholecystectomy after 3 weeks. In the fourth case, a splenic infarction disappeared spontaneously. CONCLUSION Such observations are rare. The site of the bleeding was located by endoscopy. The aneurysm was recognized by contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) scan and/or celiac and mesenteric arteriography which was performed in all cases and was very useful for the management of such aneurysms. After excision (n = 2) or obliterative endoaneurysmorrhaphy (n = 2), revascularization had to be done in two cases for celiac and mesenteric aneurysms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) status is an important component in assessing the impact of disease and its treatments in patients with chronic disorders. We recently validated a HRQOL questionnaire in French patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate prospectively the impact of surgery on HRQOL in patients operated on for Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS Twenty-six patients (14 women, 12 men; median age 28.5 yr) undergoing an elective ileocolonic resection for CD were studied. The HRQOL questionnaire comprised a general questionnaire of 36 items (Medical Outcomes Study-Short Form 36), to which was added a sleep module, and a specific questionnaire of 28 items (Rating Form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patient Concerns), to which were added three independent items because of their pertinence in the French population. HRQOL was assessed immediately preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS HRQOL was improved postoperatively compared with the immediate preoperative status in almost all scales. Patient concerns and worries decreased after surgery. However, ranking was unchanged for the five most intense concerns: having an ostomy bag, having surgery, energy level, uncertainty of the disease, and pain or suffering. CONCLUSIONS HRQOL is greatly improved after surgery for CD, and this reassuring message might be delivered to our patients. In addition, the questionnaire showed the ability to detect clinical changes over time. This attests to its potential use in research.

Abstract
Crohn's disease is potentially panintestinal and early, wide resections do not always prevent recurrences. The current approach is to intervene when indicated by the clinical situation and to perform small intestine-saving procedures. Resections remove involved zones and a limited margin of healthy tissue. Laparoscopic procedures have been developed, particularly for ileocaecal resection. These resections are followed by a high recurrence rate, mainly anastomotic, requiring reoperations. No technical factor appears to be involved in the appearance of these recurrences and their prevention is based on medical treatment of limited efficacy. At best augmentation plasties of stenoses save the length of the small intestine. They are particularly indicated in the case of stenoses at various levels of the small intestine. They are performed safely and effectively. However, the recurrence and reoperation rates are at least equal to those of resections. The indications for surgery are primarily emergencies: intestinal perforation, obstruction, haemorrhage. Sepsis of the peritoneal cavity may justify deferred restoration of intestinal continuity, with creation of a stoma. Forms complicated by an abscess may benefit from elective drainage followed by secondary resection. In the case of fistulas, it is important to spare the "target" structure, intestine or bladder, as far as possible in order to limit the extent of resection. In poorly tolerated chronic forms, refractory to medical treatment, the decision to operate must not be delayed. Surgery generally provides improvement of the patient's condition and the consequences of intestinal resection are less serious than those of the spontaneous course of lesions which are left untreated for too long.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Chronic intestinal lesions of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) are associated with a T helper (Th) 1-type cytokine profile, including high levels of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma). However, the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of the early mucosal lesions are poorly known. The aim of this study was to examine the pattern of Th1- and Th2-type (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13) cytokines in the early ileal lesions occurring in patients with CD 3 months after ileal resection and ileocolonic anastomosis. Cytokines were also examined in the chronic ileal lesions to look for cytokine patterns related to disease progression. METHODS Ileal biopsy specimens were obtained from 17 patients with CD and 11 controls. Mucosal IL-2, IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 messenger RNA (mRNA) was evaluated by competitive reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The early ileal lesions of patients with CD were associated with a significant increase of IL-4 mRNA and a decrease of IFN-gamma mRNA compared with the normal mucosa of patients with CD or controls. A Th1-type pattern was observed in the chronic ileal lesions. CONCLUSIONS Divergent cytokine patterns are observed during different clinical stages of CD. These observations need to be considered in the development of newer specific therapeutic agents to prevent CD recurrences.

Abstract
Lumboscopy is an endoscopic surgical technique providing direct visualization of the retroperitoneal space from the kidney hilium to the iliac bifurcation. We report our 10-year experience with this technique used to diagnose masses in the retroperitoneal space. This method is not very invasive and the morbidity is low. The sensitivity is greater than needle biopsy under CT guidance.

Abstract
We initiated a pilot study of adjuvant hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (AHAIC) using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin. Hepatic arterial infusion ports were placed in 15 consecutive patients undergoing curative resection of colorectal liver metastases. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of a weekly infusion of 5-FU (12 mg m 2 per day) and leucovorin (200 mg m 2 per day) for 12 months. The mean follow-up was 22 months (range 3-62 months, SD 21-37 months). There were no clinical or biological complications related to chemotherapy, except for sharp epigastric burns in four patients immediately after 5-FU infusions. Catheter irreversible occlusions led to early cessation of the treatment in three patients. Four of the 15 evaluable patients developed recurrent disease. The site of relapse was the liver in two patients and extra-hepatic sites in the two remaining patients. Three of these four patients died of their recurrent disease. These results suggest that 5-FU and leucovorin can be combined for AHAIC in a long duration regimen with a very low rate of side-effects. This protocol could be safely employed in a prospective randomized study in combination with 5-FU systemic infusions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We recently demonstrated that 65% of patients operated on for Crohn's disease (CD) had lesions of the small bowel at perioperative endoscopy (POE). These lesions were unrecognized before surgery in more than half of the patients. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of endoscopic small bowel lesions let in place at time of surgery on further anastomotic endoscopic relapse. METHODS Twenty one patients (10 women, 11 men, mean age 34 yr) had an enteroscopy from the terminal ileum to the ligament of Treitz during an ileocolectomy performed for CD. All patients were subsequently enrolled in a placebo-controlled trial of mesalazine for the prevention of early endoscopic relapse; 10 patients received placebo, and 11 received mesalazine (1.5 g/day) for 12 wk after surgery. At the end of this trial, they all had a colonoscopy with inspection of the anastomosis and the neoterminal ileum. RESULTS POE was completed up to the angle of Treitz in all 21 patients. In 10/21 cases (47%), mild lesions were found distributed at random along the small intestine 30 cm beyond the resection margin. At colonoscopy performed 12 wk later, lesions were found in 11/21 cases (52%) between section margin and were estimated to be 25 cm over the anastomosis. Endoscopic recurrence occurred in 5/10 patients who received placebo and 6/11 patients who received mesalazine. Endoscopic recurrence occurred in 5/10 patients having lesions at POE and in 6/11 patients who had no lesions. There was no relationship between endoscopic recurrence at 12 wk and presence of lesions at initial POE, whatever the postoperative treatment. CONCLUSION Endoscopic lesions let in place after "curative" surgery have no influence on early endoscopic anastomotic recurrences in CD.
