RESUMEN
The concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been practiced for decades and has been implemented in numerous surgical specialties. ERAS is a global surgical quality improvement initiative, and it is an element in the field of perioperative care. ERAS had shown significant clinical outcomes, patient-reported satisfaction, and improvements in medical service cost. ERAS has been developed for specific surgical procedures, but with the fast progress of newly introduced surgical procedures, the original ERAS have been developed and modified. Recently appearing Topics and future research trends encompass ERAS protocols for other types of surgery and the enhancement of perioperative status, including but not limited to pediatric surgery, laparoscopic and robotic assisted surgery, bariatric surgery, thoracic surgery, and renal transplantation. The elements and pathways of ERAS have been developed with the introduction of up-to-date methodologies in the pre-operative, operative, and post-operative pathways. ERAS costs are higher than traditional care, but the patient's clinical outcome and satisfaction are higher. ERAS is in progress in the fields of anesthetic tasks, pediatric surgery, and organ transplantation. Although ERAS has shown significant clinical outcomes, there are needs to modify the protocol for specific cases, hospital facilities, resources, and nurses training on elements of ERAS. Several challenges and limitations exist in the implementation of ERAS that deserve consideration, it includes: Frailty, maximizing nutrition, prehabilitation, treating preoperative anemia, and enhancing ERAS adoption globally are all included.
RESUMEN
Identification of patients at risk of postoperative complications could have an impact on the indications for a procedure as well as permitting modifications of treatment to reduce the surgical risk. This experimental study evaluated the correlation between peri-operative acute phase response and outcome of hepatic resection. The study was conducted on sixty healthy golden hamsters, which underwent partial hepatectomy. They were arranged in 3 groups (20 per each). One day prior to resection, fracture of the left hind leg was done in group I (G I) & wound infection had been created in group II (GII); while nothing done in group III (GIII) that acted as a control. Blood samples to estimate SGPT and serum albumin (as basic investigations for hamsters liver function) and serum IL-6 and CRP (as acute phase reactants) were taken preoperatively, immediately after resection and for the consecutive 3 days post operatively. The mean serum level of both acute phase reactants increased in GI and GII preoperatively and continues to rise immediately after resection. Post-operatively; among the three groups, the mean serum level of both reactants was higher in GI than in GII that was in turn higher than in GIII except when the postoperative complications were more severe than the other group, then this relation changed.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) had been considered the gold standard treatment for symptomatic gall bladder (GB) stones. Single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) was emerged as a less invasive alternative with better cosmesis and less post operative pain. This study evaluated the feasibility, safety, advantages and complications of SILC using the conventional laparoscopic instruments. A total of 52 patients (47 females and 5 males) with symptomatic GB stones underwent elective SILC using the conventional laparoscopic instruments. The mean operative time was 61.75 min and the mean estimated blood loss was 17.21 ml. Gall bladder perforation occurred in 5 cases (9.6%) in which 3 cases calculi spillage occurred. Troublesome cystic artery bleeding occurred in 2 cases (3.8%) while gall bladder bed bleeding happened in 1 case (1.9%). An intraoperative cholangiogram was performed in 3 cases and a drain was inserted in one case. No conversions of the technique occurred. 49 patients discharged in the first post operative day and 3 patients (5.8 %) in the 2nd day. Three month post operative wound length was an average of 1.58 cm while patient satisfaction of the surgery was an average of 9.32.
