Objective
To summarize the treatment of pancreatic pseudo cyst in recent years.
Methods
Through the retrieval of relevant literatures, the progress in the treatment of pancreatic pseudo cyst in recent years were reviewed.
Results
Pancreatic pseudo cyst is a common complication of pancreatitis or pancreatic injury. Severe symptoms are often caused by large cysts or complications, and it can cause serious consequences. The main treatment methods are conservative treatment, percutaneous drainage, surgical treatment, endoscopic drainage technology, combined with traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, and each method has its own indications and advantages and disadvantages.
Conclusion
The treatment of pancreatic pseudo cyst is varied, and it should be individualized treatment according to different indications, different patients and the development stage of the disease.
ObjectiveTo explore the cause, clinical diagnosis and treatment, and prevention strategies of iatrogenic bile duct injury (IBDI).
MethodsBy means of literature retrieval, the clinical diagnosis and treatment measures of patients with IBDI were summarized.
ResultsThe related risk factors of IBDI include man-made factors, the local anatomy variation factors, and pathological factors. According to the damage diagnosis time and local pathological state, the repair operations such as bile duct suture repair, biliary tract end to end anastomosis, bile duct jejunum Roux-en-Y anastomosis, bile duct jejunum Roux-en-Y anastomosis, and jejunal artificial valve forming, or liver resection, and liver transplantation were performed. Moreover, it was also available that biliary stent or papillary balloon dilation through ERCP for the bile duct distal stricture.
ConclusionsIt is important that prevention of IBDI. Operation should pay attention to upper abdominal operation prior to the implementation of the correct understanding of IBDI. In case of IBDI, the reasonable repair operation mode should be choose according to the damage types and time, and it can significantly improve the treatment effect and quality of life of patients.
ObjectiveTo observe effect and safety of interstitial chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent in radical operation of colorectal cancer.
MethodsOne hundred and sixty patients with colorectal cancer from October 2011 to December 2013 were randomly divided into observation group and control group according to an incomplete random method, 78 cases of them were in the observation group and 82 cases of them were in the control group. All the patients were performed radical resection of colorectal cancer. The abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity were washed after surgery. 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent was implanted in the observation group patients for interstitial chemotherapy, the implant site was at the tumor resection area and the mesenteric artery. Routine chemotherapy was performed in these two groups after operation. The postoperative complications were observed. The postoperative local recurrence rate, liver metastasis rate, and 24-month survival rate were recorded.
ResultsThe rates of abdominal complications and toxic effects had no significant differences between these two groups (P > 0.05). The rates of 12-month and 24-month local recurrence and the rate of liver metastasis in the observation group were significant lower than those in the control group[1.3% (1/78) versus 8.5% (7/82), x2=8.934, P=0.023; 5.2% (4/78) versus 23.2% (19/82), x2=14.834, P=0.004; 10.3% (8/78) versus 18.3% (15/82), x2=12.034, P=0.016]. The rate of 24-month survival in the observation group was significant higher than that in the control group[94.9% (74/78) versus 84.1% (69/82), x2=11.465, P=0.010].
ConclusionThe good safety of interstitial chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent could effectively decrease local recurrence rate and liver metastasis rate of colorectal cancer after radical operation and improve survival time of patients.
ObjectiveTo describe the research status of programmed death receptor protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand(PD-L1) inhibitors in advanced gastric cancer and to understand the key issues of PD/PD-L1 inhibitors in order to provide atheoretical basis for future research.MethodThe classical and up to date literatures on the immunotherapy, especially thePD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the advanced gastric cancer were reviewed.ResultsThe PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors were the hot spot in the current research of tumor immunotherapy. The pembrolizumab and nivolumab were the commonly immunosuppressive agents in the current clinical research, which had also achieved the great success in the clinical research of gastriccancer since it was shown the good results in the malignant melanoma and hematological malignancies. In some clinical studies, the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors treatment showed the longer overall survival than the conventional chemotherapy, especially in the patient with positive PD-1. However the study still had some issues to be solved, such as no accurate prediction for the beneficiary population, the tumor hyperprogression and so on. It was gratifying that the current research on the basic research of tumor immunity was increasing, then it provided a theoretical support for solving these problems.ConclusionsTumor immunosuppressive therapy such as PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors brings a new idea in treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer. Although there are still many problems need to be solved in clinical research, it is believed that PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors will become one of key players in treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer in the further study.
ObjectiveTo summarize the mechanism of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in regulating autophagy and ameliorating multi-organ dysfunction in the treatment of sepsis.MethodThe relevant literatures at home and abroad in recent years were systematically searched and read to review the mechanism of H2S in regulating autophagy and ameliorating multi-organ dysfunction during sepsis.ResultsAs a new medical gas signal molecule, H2S could regulate autophagy by regulating multiple signal pathways such as Nrf2, NF-κB, MAPK, AMPK, etc., then ameliorated multi-organ dysfunction in sepsis.ConclusionH2S inhibits inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis by regulating autophagy, thus ameliorating multi-organ dysfunction in sepsis, which is expected to become an effective therapeutic target for sepsis.
