Schwannoma originating from the common bile duct is rare. We presented a patient who was diagnosed with biliary cystadenoma preoperatively and pathologically confirmed as a choledochal Schwannoma, analyzed the CT and MRI imaging manifestations, and illustrated its anatomical and pathological basis, and to improve the understanding of clinicians and radiologists for choledochal Schwannoma.
From 1978 to Dec. 1991, 50 cases of dilatation of the extrahepatic biliary duct in children were treated. They were classified as: cystic dilatation in 34 cases, arid fusiform dilatation in 16 cases. Types of reconstruction of the extrahepatic biliary duct included: excision of cystic dilatation and Rorx-en-Y hepatoductojejunostomy in 25 cases, and interposition of jejunum and hepatoductoduodenostomy in 9 eases. for those cases having fusiform dilatation, interposition of jejunum and hepatoductoduodenostomy，cases and Rorx-en-Y-hepatoductojejunostmy 5 cases.The follow-up period averajed 6.5 years. Forty nine patients were recoverwd from the teatment and 1 patient died.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore risk factors of bile leakage after primary ductal closure following choledochotomy. MethodsA retrospective clinical analysis was made in 148 cases of Ttube drainage and 154 cases of primary common bile duct suture following choledochotomy admitted to our hospital from January 1999 to June 2003. Results Postoperative bile leakage was seen in 11 patients of the group with Ttube drainage and in 16 patients of the group with primary suture respectively, there was no significant difference(Pgt;0.05).In the group with primary common bile duct suture,the occurrence of bile leakage was relative with hyperglycemia(Plt;0.05)，hypoproteinemia (Plt;0.01)，bile duct repeated sutures(Plt;0.01)and positive bacterial culture in bile(Plt;0.05). Bile leakage was not relative with elder age (Pgt;0.05).Conclusion It is the key factors,including chosing appropriate patients, intraoperative special examination, careful manipulation and effective medical treatment that can reduce the morbidity of bile leakage.
Objective
To explore risk factors and treatment strategies of liver resection surface infection following laparoscopic hepatolithiectomy for patient with complicated intrahepatic bile duct stones.
Methods
The clinical data of 45 patients with complicated intrahepatic bile duct stone underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy from January 2014 to April 2017 in this hospital were analyzed. The liver resection surface infection rate, pathogenic bacteria distribution, factors of operation, antibiotic use time, volume of drainage, and drainage tube placement time were analyzed.
Results
A total of 13 cases of liver resection surface infection occurred following the laparoscopic hepatolithiectomy in the 45 cases, the infection rate was 28.89%. Totally 24 strains of pathogens were isolated from the infected patients, including 9 strains of gram-positive bacteria and 15 strains of gram-negative bacteria. The mainly postoperative complications included 16 cases of the biliary leakage, 5 cases of the effusion and empyema, the average drainage volume was about 200 mL after the surgery. The double pipes were placed in the 10 patients in the operation. The drainage tubes were placed in the 23 patients under the ultrasound or CT intervention after the surgery, the average time of drainage tube placement was 8 d. The results of univariate analysis showed that the past biliary surgery history, combined with liver cirrhosis, double pipe drainage, operation time, and postoperative biliary leakage were associated with the liver section surface infection following the laparoscopic hepatolithiectomy (P<0.050). The results of multivariate analysis identified that the past biliary surgery history and postoperative biliary leakage were the risk factors (P<0.050), while the double pipe drainage was the protective factor (P<0.050) for liver resection surface infection following the laparoscopic hepatolithiectomy.
Conclusions
Prophylactic treatment such as perfect preoperative management and careful intraoperation should be taken for risk factors of liver section surface infection following laparoscopic hepatolithiectomy. Actively effective treatment strategies should be given if postoperative liver section surface infection existence.
In order to protect the integrity and function of the digestive system, duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection is becoming the surgical method which was chosen by more and more doctors for benign lesions or low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic head. With the development of minimally invasive concepts and techniques, laparoscopic technology has brought unique advantages to this surgery. In this paper, a series of problems such as the development process and indications of laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection were discussed, and the core techniques of surgery and how to reduce the occurrence of complications were emphasized. The aim is to improve the therapeutic effect and quality of life of patients through reasonable surgical methods and treatment strategies.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intraluminal brachytherapy (ILBT) in prolonging survival and the period free of symptoms for patients with unresectable bile duct cancer. Methods We searched MEDLINE (1977 to May 2007), CNKI (1979 to May 2007) and CBM Disk (1979 to May 2007). The qual ity of included studies was assessed according to the guidance in the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Results One randomized controlled trial involving 42 patients with unresectable bile duct cancer fulfilled the inclusion criteria. This found that the median survival time was longer for patients treated with endoprostheses and ILBT compared to those treated with endoprostheses alone (387.9 days versus 298.0 days, Plt;0.05). The stent patency time in patients who were treated with endoprostheses and ILBT was longer than for those treated with endoprostheses alone (378.4 days versus 245.5 days, Plt;0.01). The reductions in bil irubin (mol/l) and alkal ine phosphatase (kat/l) before and after drainage in patients who were treated with endoprostheses and ILBT were similar to those treated with endoprostheses alone (Mean ±SD of bil irubin: before: 219.3 ± 40.5, after: 23.1 ± 37.1 versus before: 227.3 ± 39.8, after: 22.5 ± 44.2; Mean ± SD of alkal ine phosphatase: before: 10.3 ± 5.1. after: 3.6 ± 2.9 versus before: 11.7 ± 5.8, after: 3.7 ± 2.9). No severe adverse effects were observed in the trial. Conclusion Current evidence suggests that ILBT for unresectable bile duct cancer may improve the survival time of patients, prolong the time they spend symptom free, improve their quality of l ife and reduce the burden of treatment. However, it may increase toxicity in normal tissues, which can be managed by adjusting radiation dosage. No serious adverse effects were observed in the 42 patients in the trial in this review. More randomized controlled trials with large sample size are needed to provide rel iable results.
ObjectiveTo conclude the outcomes of mitral valve repair for mitral bileaflet prolapse.
MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 14 patients with mitral bileaflet prolapse in our hospital between June 2010 and March 2013. There were 10 males and 4 females with at age of 46.9±12.0 years. We used one technique in 4 patients, two techniques in 9 patients, three techniques in 1 patient.
ResultsMean follow-up time was 13.1±7.2 months. There was no perioperative death. No reoperation occurred. No or trace mitral regurgitation (MR) was found in 13 patients. Slight MR was found in one patient.
ConclusionThe early metaphase results of mitral valve repair for mitral bileaflet prolapse are satisfactory if the appropriate surgery method is chosen.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical significance of abnormal confluence of common bile duct (CBD) and pancreatic duct. MethodsFortyfive cases of biliary pancreatic confluence portion of cadavers were dissected and observed with microscope. ResultsThe lower end of CBD inserted normally into the medial posterior portion of descending duodenum with oblique angle (41.4±5.3)° and safeguarded by the sidelong wrinkle formed by mucous membrane of duodenum. In common, pancreatic duct ampulla inserted into CBD with oblique angle (28.5±7.9)° and jointed CBD in the medial wall of dudenum. The length ampulla of Vater was about 0.5-1.5 cm. The Vater’s ampulla was dilated obviously. ConclusionThe result indicates that pancreatic duct and CBD joint with a sharp angle. A number of abnormal anatomic factors may change the relation of oblique angle, and lead to the pancreatitis.
As the aging of the population intensifies, the incidence of dementia continues to increase year by year. However, the general public's lack of awareness about dementia, combined with the complexity of the cognitive assessment process, often results in many dementia patients being diagnosed in the moderate to late stages of the disease, missing the crucial window for therapeutic intervention. This significantly affects the mental and physical health and quality of life of the elderly. With the continuous advancements in medical and information technology, the application of electronic tools in cognitive assessment is gradually increasing. This study summarizes the current application of electronic cognitive assessment tools to provide references for the development of electronic cognitive assessment tools suitable for the elderly in China.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical significances of intraoperative methylene blue diluent injection through the residual bile duct for bile leakage after hepatic hydatidosis surgery.MethodsThe patients with hepatic hydatidosis who received the surgical treatment in this hospital from December 2018 to November 2019 were randomly divided into a study group and control group. The patients in the study group received the treatment of anatomical or nonanatomical hepatic lobectomy. The first hepatic hilum was locked, then the methylene blue diluent was injected through the residual bile duct to find the bile leakage. The drainage tube was retained in the abdominal cavity after the surgery. The patients in the control group except the white gauze was used to compress the liver wound surface for 5 min to find the bile leakage, the other treatment process was the same as the study group. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, liver function on day 3 after the surgery (total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, albumin), detection rate of bile leakage during operation, postoperative complications (pulmonary infection, ascites, incision infection, bile leakage, residual cavity infection, and electrolyte disturbance), postoperative hospitalization time, and total hospitalization cost were compared between two groups.ResultsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 67 patients were included in this study, including 32 in the study group and 35 in the control group. There were no significant differences in the baseline data such as the age, gender, preoperative complications, preoperative liver function (total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, albumin), and liver hydatid classification between the two groups (P>0.05). The operations were successful in the 67 patients, no perioperative death occurred. The detection rate of bile leakage during operation in the study group was higher than that in the control group (53.1% versus 17.1%, P<0.05). The postoperative hospitalization time was shorter and the total hospitalization cost was lower in the study group as compared with the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, liver function on day 3 after the surgery between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no case of the incision infection, bile leakage, and residual cavity infection in the study group, but there were 1, 5 and 4 cases in the control group, respectively. The incidences of incision infection and bile leakage had statistical significances between the two groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant differences in the incidences of other complications between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionsDetection rate of bile leakage during operation is high by intraoperative methylene blue diluent injection through the residual bile duct for bile leakage after hepatic hydatidosis surgery. It could reduce bile leakage, shorten postoperative hospitalization time, and reduce total hospitalization cost.
