ObjectiveTo summarize the experience in the treatment of anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy.MethodThe clinicopathologic data of 11 patients with anastomotic leakage after the laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy in the Nanchong Central Hospital from May 2016 to January 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsAmong the 11 patients with anastomotic leakage, 3 were grade Ⅱ leakages and 8 were grade Ⅲa leakages. There were no symptoms in the 3 cases of anastomotic leakage, which were confirmed only by the gastrointestinal radiography and were healed after 7 d of conservative treatment. Among the 8 patients with the clinical symptoms, 5 cases were treated by the endoscopic drainage and negative pressure suction for 60–90 d, 3 cases were treated by the endoscopic covered stent, 2 cases were cured after 30–60 d, and 1 case died of massive bleeding after 45 d.ConclusionsDue to differences of location, time, limitation, and size of anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy, individualized treatment should be performed according to specific situation of patients in local treatment. Endoluminal covered stent has certain clinical application value.

Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 27 patients with AAA who underwent endovascular covered stent grafting surgery in our hospital from January to August 2008. Results With appropriate treatment and good care, all grafting surgeries were successful without any severe postoperative complications. Conclusion Effective care measures are an important factor to ensure successful treatment.
Objective
To discuss feasibility and effectivity of intraoperative ultrasound (US) during endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Methods
A radiographic contrast nephropathy patient of abdominal aortic aneurysm and left internal iliac artery aneurysm was treated by EVAR without iodine contrast media assisted by US. Then summarized the data of this patient.
Results
The precise placement of the stent-graft was performed for abdominal aortic aneurysm. The left internal iliac artery aneurysm was successfully treatment with the stent-graft and coils. Intraoperative Ⅱ type endoleak from inferior mesenteric artery and Ⅰ b type endoleak from right iliac stent were identified by using US. The operative duration was 120 min and the blood loss was only 20 mL. Ⅱ type endoleak was still detected and the Ⅰ b type of endoleak was loss on postoperative a week.
Conclusion
Intraoperative US-assisted EVAR in patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm represents a new option for intraoperative visualization of aortoiliac segments required as proximal or distal fixation zones and identification of endoleaks, especially in those patients with contraindications for usage of iodine-containing contrast agents.
ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) with hostile stent-graft proximal landing zone.
MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 13 patients with BTAI with hostile stent-graft proximal landing zone treated by TEVAR between December 2007 and December 2014. There were 10 males and 3 females with the mean age of 44 years (range, 24-64 years). The imaging examination indicated Stanford type B aortic dissection in 7 cases, pseudoaneurysm in 3 cases, aneurysm in 1 case, and penetrating ulcer in 2 cases. According to the partition method of thoracic aortic lesion by Mitchell, 8 cases underwent stent-graft with left subclavian artery (LSA) coverage, 3 underwent chimney stents for LSA, and 2 for left common carotid artery (LCCA). In 2 cases receiving chimney TEVAR involving LCCA, one underwent steel coils at the proximal segment of LSA to avoid type II endoleak and the other underwent in situ fenestration for endovascular reconstruction of LSA.
ResultsAll TEVAR procedures were successfully performed. The mean operation time was 1.8 hours (range, 1-3 hours); the mean intraoperative blood loss was 120 mL (range, 30-200 mL); and the mean hospitalization time was 15 days (range, 7-37 days). No perioperative death and paraplegia occurred. The patients were followed up 3-30 months (mean, 18 months). Type I endoleak occurred in 1 case during operation and spontaneously healed within 6 months. Hematoma at brachial puncture site with median nerve compression symptoms occurred in 1 case at 3 weeks after operation; ultrasound examination showed brachial artery pseudoaneurysm and thrombosis, and satisfactory recovery was obtained after pseudoaneurysmectomy. No obvious chest pain, shortness of breath, left upper limbs weakness, numbness, and dizziness symptoms were observed. Imaging examination revealed that stentgraft and branched stent remained in stable condition. Meanwhile the blood flow was unobstructed. No lesions expanded and ruptured. No new death, bacterial infection, or other serious complications occurred.
ConclusionAccording to Mitchell method, individualized plan may be the key to a promising result. More patients and further follow-up need to be included, studied, and observed.
ObjectiveTo analyze the main points and advantages of covered endovascular reconstruction of aortic bifurcation (CERAB) technique in the treatment of complex aortic and iliac artery lesions. MethodThe data of the patient with bilateral common iliac artery stenosis and lower abdominal aortic calcification treated by CERAB technology in the Department of Vascular Surgery of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and the technology in combination with the characteristics of balloon-expandable covered stent were analyzed. ResultsThe lesions were successfully treated by CERAB technique. The stents of bilateral iliac arteries were in perfect shape and good adherence. The radiography of the abdominal aorta and bilateral internal and external iliac arteries were well displayed. ConclusionsFrom analysis results of this case, CERAB technology is effective and feasible in treatment of lesions at the bifurcation of the main aortic and iliac artery. The shape of aortic bifurcation is satisfactorily recovered. The key point for the successful implementation of this technology is balloon-expandable covered stent.
