    The most serious complication after major liver resection is liver failure. Depending on preoperative liver function, a future liver remnant of 25\%-40\% is considered sufficient to avoid postoperative liver failure. A new technique known as portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting has been developed to obtain rapid liver hypertrophy. Herein, we present a case where we performed portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting, A 37-year-old male patient with a diagnosis of sigmoid adenocarcinoma and liver metastasis underwent anterior resection because of an obstructing sigmoid tumor and received palliative chemotherapy. After chemotherapy, abdominal computed tomography revealed a lesion, 50 mm in diameter, localized between segments 5-8 of the liver on the bifurcation of the anteroposterior segmental branch of the right portal vein. Computed tomography volumetric assessments of the liver were performed in the preoperative period, and it was found that the remnant left liver volume was less than 25\% In the first stage, portal vein ligation and in situ splitting of the liver parenchyma were performed, On the second and sixth postoperative clays, computed tomography revealed hypertrophy of the left liver lobe. On the sixth clay, a right hepatectomy was performed, Portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting has been used by surgeons worldwide to obtain rapid and adequate liver hypertrophy. This new approach yields hope for patients with locally advanced liver tumors and may increase the number of curative resections for primary or metastatic liver tumors.

    Surgery for Intestinal Crohn's Disease: Results of a multidisciplinary approach
    (TURKISH SURGICAL ASSOC, 2018-01-01) Atasoy, Deniz; Aghayeva, Afag; Aytac, Erman; Erenler, Ilknur; Celik, Aykut Ferhat; Baca, Bilgi; Karahasanoglu, Tayfun; Hamzaoglu, Ismail
    Objectives: Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that requires lifelong multidisciplinary management. Seventy percent of patients affected by Crohn's disease will require at least one surgical procedure over their lifetime. The aim of this retrospective study was to present our series of patients suffering from Crohn's disease who were scheduled for surgery by a multidisciplinary team. Material and methods: The data were retrieved from a review of 950 patients with Crohn's disease treated at our institution between March 2000 and March 2016. Only patients with intestinal Crohn's disease were included into the study. A multidisciplinary team assessed the decision to perform surgery. Results: There were 203 patients who underwent surgery included in this study. One hundred and sixty-six were intestinal and 37 were perianal Crohn's disease. The mean age was 36 +/- 11.5 (range, 12-75) years. Ninety-two were stricturing, 45 were fistulizing, and 12 were inflammatory. The most commonly affected site was the ileocecal region (n=109, 65.7\%), and the most common surgical procedure was the ileocecal resection (n=109, 65.6\%). Laparoscopic approach was the procedure of choice in 56 (33.7\%) patients. Of the patients enrolled, the most common early (<30 days) complications observed were the wound infection as the first (n=11) and anastomotic leak as the second (n=10). The mortality rate was 2.4\% (n=4). Conclusion: Multidisciplinary approach to Crohn's disease may decrease the surgical complications and recurrence rates leading to a better treatment.

    Effects of prior abdominal surgery on laparoscopic cholecystectomy
    (TURKISH SURGICAL ASSOC, 2018-01-01) Atasoy, Deniz; Aghayeva, Afag; Sapci, Ipek; Bayraktar, Onur; Cengiz, Turgut Bora; Baca, Bilgi
    Objectives: With increased experience and technological advancement, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is reported to be safe and feasible even in the presence of most of the previously recognized contraindications. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of prior upper and lower abdominal surgery on laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Material and Methods: A retrospective evaluation of all sequential patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from January 2014 to June 2016 was conducted. Patients were divided into three groups (Group A: patients without any prior abdominal surgical procedures
