Objective To summarize the clinical therapeutic efficacy of emergent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and emergent open cholecystectomy (OC). Methods One hundred and thirty-three patients with acute cholecystitis from March 2011 to June 2012 in this hospital were randomly divided into emergent LC (ELC) group and emergent OC (EOC) group. The examination and treatment before and after operation were the same. The clinical data before and during operation, postoperative complications, and recovery conditions were observed and compared. Results There was no obvious difference of the clinical data before operation between the ELC group and EOC group (P>0.05). Also, there were no significant differences of the operation time, biliary duct injury rate, postoperative bleeding rate, and reoperation rate in two groups (P>0.05). The time of postoperative anal exsufflation, time of out-of-bed activity, and postoperative hospital stay in the ELC group were significantly shorter than those in the EOC group (P<0.05), the poor incision healing rate in the ELC group was significantly lower than that in the EOC group (P<0.05), and the intraoperative blood loss in the ELC group was significantly less than that in the EOC group (P<0.05). Conclusions ELC as compared with EOC, are less intraoperative blood loss, less postoperative complications, more rapid recovery, and do not increase operation time. In a hospital with skilled LC technique, ELC is safe and feasible, has obvious advantages of minimal invasion.
Objective To explore the value of CT guided percutaneous puncture, aspiration and drainage on diagnosis and treatment of local complications of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Forty-three cases of SAP combined with pancreatic necrosis, peripancreatic hydrops, pseudocyst and abscess were analyzed, all of them underwent CT guided percutaneous puncture, aspiration and drainage. Results The punctures were performed on 43 SAP patients for sixty-four times, the success rate was 100%, and in 24 cases of them puncture were performed for diagnosis, the positive rate of fluid absorption by puncture was 100%. Forty-one of 43 cases (95%) received puncture and tube drainage, open operation was performed in one patient, one patient was automatically discharged. The remission rate of abdominal distension was 93% (40/43) and 16 of 43 cases (37%) were turned to open operation. The effective rate of drainage was 61% (25/41). Conclusion The puncture, aspiration and drainage guided by CT is an effective method in diagnosis and treatment of local complications in part of SAP cases.
