Objective To evaluate the linkage between the proxmal as well as long term outcome and choice of therapeutical modality for benign hilar stricture of bile duct prospectively. Methods 25 patients have been catergorized into 4 groups according to different pathogen and the proxmal as well as long term outcome after pathogen based management have been studied prospectively. Results The hepatic portal cholangio-jejunostomy applied for iatrogenic hilar stricture of bile duct has been proved to be effective and the incidence of refulux cholangitis is only 10%(1/10). Hepatic hilar plasty procedures keep the physiological entitity of bile duct and the vital, sufficient autologous repair materials as well as reliable operation design are needed. Resection of atrophic right liver lobe bearing hepatolithiasis combined hepatic hilar plasty has reached both elimination of liver focus and maintaining the physiological entitity of bile duct. The ballon dilation for mild ring-like hilar stricture of bile duct is valide but not for hilar tubular stricture of secondary sclerosing cholangitis.Conclusion The strategy of individualized management (pathogen based management) for benign hilar stricture of bile duct has proved to be reliable and effective.
The secondary anastomotic stenosis is often occured from the repair and reconstructive operation of the injured bile duct. It is difficult to treat and the outcome is serious. In order to prevent this complication, the fibrin glue instead of traditional suturing technique combined with inner support was used. Fifty-four hybrid dogs were divided into 3 groups. Group A received Roux-en-y choledochojejunostomy with fibrin glue; group B received Roux-en-y choledochojejunostomy, with a fibrin glue combined support left permanently in the bile duct and group C received Roux-en-y choledocholejejunostomy with fibrin glue combined a support left temporarily in the bile duct. The amount of collagen in the scar was measured at 3/4, 3, 6, 9, 12 months respectively after operation. The results showed: 1. the mature period of scar was shortened from 12 months to 9 months when fibrin glue instead of suture was used in choledochojejunostomy; 2. the mature period of scar was further shortened from 9 months to 6 months when fibrin glue combined with inner support instead of fibrin glue was used in choledochojejunostomy. The conclusions were as follows: 1. fibrin glue could facilitate the healing of wound by inhibiting the formation of scar and accelerrate the maturation of scar; 2. when the inner support was used with fibrin glue in the operation, the mature period of scar could be further shortened; 3. the mechanism of action of the fibrin glue included minimizing the injury, avoiding foreign-body reaction, modifying organization of hematoma, preventing formation of biliary fistular and enhancing intergration and cross-linkage of collagen.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy with modified triple-layer(MTL) duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy and with resection of jejunal serosa, analyse the risk factors of pancreatic fistula, and compare effects with two-layer(TL) duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy.
MethodsData on 184 consecutive patients who underwent the two methods of pancreaticojejunostomy during standard PD between January 1, 2010 and January 31, 2013 were collected retrospectively. The risk factors of pancreatic fistula were investigated by using univariate and multivariate analyses.
ResultsA total of 88 patients received TL and 96 underwent MTL. Rate of pancreatic fistula for the entire cohort was 8.2%(15/184). There were 11 fistulas(12.5%) in the TL group and four fistulas(4.2%) in the MTL group(P=0.039). Body mass index, pancreatic texture, pancreatic duct diameter, and methods of pancreaticojejunostomy had significant effects on the formation of pancreatic fistula on univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that pancreatic duct diameter less than 3 mm and TL were the significant risk factors of pancreatic fistula.
ConclusionsMTL technique effectively reduced the pancreatic fistula rate after PD in comparison with TL, especially in patients with pancreatic duct diameter less than 3 mm.
ObjectiveTo investigate the application of imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy in pure laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.
MethodsEighty-five cases of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in our hospital from May 2014 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. According with inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, 78 cases were investigated. They were divided into pancreatic duct-to-jejunum mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy group as controlled group (n=42) and imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy (technique of duct-to-mucosa PJ with transpancreatic interlocking mattress sutures) group as modified group (n=36). The rates of pancreatic fistula, abdominal infection/abscess, bile leakage, delayed gastric emptying, gastrointestinal/intraabdominal hemorrhage, pulmonary infection, and incision infection were investigated as well as hospital stays and pancreaticojejunostomy time in two groups were compared.
ResultsThe rate of pancreatic fistula especially B to C grade pancreatic fistula in the modified group was obviously lower compared with which in the controlled group (8.3% vs. 31.0%, P < 0.05), pancreaticojejunostomy time ofmodified group was significantly shortened [(35.6±12.4) min vs. (52.8±24.6) min, P < 0.05] and total operative time also shortened [(322.4±23.6) min vs. (384.2±30.2) min, P < 0.05). There were no significant difference of the rates of abdominal infection/abscess, bile leakage, delayed gastric emptying, gastrointestinal/intraabdominal hemorrhage, pulmonary infection, ?incision infection, and hospital stays (P > 0.05)]. Conciusions The type of pancreaticojejunostomy has a significant impact on the rate of pancreatic fistula after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. Imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy can decrease the rate of pancreatic fistula after operation, and shorten the pancreaticojejunostomy time and total operative time.
Objective To explore the diagnostic and treating scheme of primary sclerotic cholangitis. Methods 24 cases of primary sclerotic cholangitis identified by radiological and pathological examinations from 1972 to 1998 were analysed retrospectively. According to Thompson, 1 case was classified as type Ⅰ, 5 cases were type Ⅱ, 10 cases were type Ⅲ and 8 cases were type Ⅳ. The operation were as follows,resection of gallbladder plus T tube drainage in 8 cases, plus Roux-en-Y anastomosis of bile duct and jejunum in 12 cases, plus U tube stent and drainage in 4 cases. Results The total mortality rate was 25% (6/24) in 2~18 years follow-up after operation. Conclusion Early diagnosis and operation may resolve the drainage of bile into the jejunum. When serious lesions and worse liver functions exist, liver transplantation should be considered.
Objective
To explore the influence of different withdrawal time of trachea cannula on percutaneous dilational tracheostomy (PDT) in critically ill patients.
Methods
In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 185 critically ill patients experienced PDT, who had been admitted to the adult mixed ICU of Xiaolan Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2015 to July 2017. The patients were divided into an early PDT group (EPDT group) and a delayed PDT group (DPDT group) according to the timing of withdrawing trachea cannula. Operation information such as operation time, blood loss and the incidence of complications were collected and compared between the two groups.
Results
Between the EPDT group and the DPDT group, there were no obvious differences in operation time (minutes: 6.5±2.6 vs. 7.3±3.5), amount of blood loss (ml: 5.2±2.8 vs. 6.0±3.4) or conversion to traditional operation (1.9% vs. 2.4%) (all P>0.05). Compared with the EPDT group, the DPDT group patients experienced more fluctuation of intraoperative vital signs, used more dose of sedative and analgesic drugs, and experienced higher occurrence of aspiration (18.3%vs. 5.6%), balloon burst (13.4% vs. 2.9%), guide-wire placing difficulty (11.0% vs. 1.9%) and tracheostomy cannula placing difficulty (14.6% vs. 2.9%) (all P<0.05). There were no statistical significances in postoperative complications such as postoperative-hemorrhage, pneumothorax, pneumoderm, the posterior tracheal injury or incision infection between the two groups (allP<0.05). More patients acquired postoperative pulmonary infection in the DPDT group than the EDPD group (12.2%vs. 5.8%, P>0.05), and there was no statistical significances in mechanical ventilation time between the two groups (days: 5.5±3.0vs. 6.0±2.5, P>0.05).
Conclusions
The operation and complications of PDT in critically ill patients are influenced by the timing of withdrawing trachea cannula. The standard procedure of withdrawing trachea cannula preoperatively may offer better clinical operability and lower technical risk.
ObjectiveTo explore the causes of colon-anal anastomotic stenosis in patients with low rectal cancer after prophylactic ileostomy under complete laparoscopy. MethodsA total of 194 patients with low rectal cancer who received complete laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer combined with preventive ileostomy in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2020 were selected as the study objects, and were divided into non-stenosis group (n=136) and stenosis group (n=58) according to postoperative colon-anal anastomosis stenosis. The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the factors affecting postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis, and stepwise regression was used to evaluate the importance of each factor. The risk prediction model of postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis was constructed and evaluated. ResultsIn the stenosis group, the proportion of males, tumor diameter >3 cm, NRS2002 score >3 points, manual anastomosis, left colic artery not preserved, anastomotic leakage, pelvic infection and patients undergoing neoadjuvant radiotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy were higher than those in the non-stenosis group (P<0.05). The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that female and preserving the left colonic artery were the protective factors for postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis (P<0.05), and the tumor diameter >3 cm, NRS2002 score >3 points, manual anastomosis, anastomotic leakage, pelvic infection, neoadjuvant radiotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy were the risk factors for postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender, tumor diameter, NRS 2002 score, anastomotic mode, anastomotic leakage, and pelvic infection were independent influencing factors for postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis (P<0.05). Stepwise regression analysis showed that the top three factors affecting postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis were NRS 2002 score, gender and anastomotic leakage. Multivariate Cox risk proportional model analysis showed that the multivariate model composed of NRS 2002 score, gender and anastomotic leakage had a good consistency in the risk assessment of postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis. Based on this, a risk prediction model for postoperative colon-anal anastomotic stenosis was constructed. The results of strong influence point analysis show that there are no data points in the modeling data that have a strong influence on the model parameter estimation (Cook distance <1). Receiver operating characteristic curve results showed that the model had good differentiation ability, the area under curve was 0.917, 95%CI was (0.891, 0.942). The calibration curve was approximately a diagonal line, showing that the model has good predictive power (Brier value was 0.097). The results of the clinical decision curve showed that better clinical benefits can be obtained by using the predictive model to identify the corresponding risk population and implement clinical intervention. ConclusionThe prediction model based on NRS 2002 score, gender and anastomotic fistula can effectively evaluate the risk of colon-anal anastomotic stenosis after preventive ileostomy in patients with low rectal cancer under complete laparoscopy.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of vasostomy on apoptosis in the male rat spermatogenic cells after vasoligation. METHODS: Model of vasoligation and vasostomy in male rat was established, and then terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick labelling technique to detect the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells at 4, 8, 12, 16 weeks after vasostomy. RESULTS: The number of apoptotic cells in vasostomy group was significantly lower than that of vasoligation group since 8 weeks after vasostomy(P lt; 0.05). The number of apoptotic cells in 8 and 12 weeks after vasostomy were significantly higher than that in prevasoligation(P lt; 0.05). 16 weeks after vasostomy, the number of apoptotic cells restored to the level same as that in prevasoligation stage. CONCLUSION: Vasostomy can reverse the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells due to vasoligation.
ObjectiveTo compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic magnetic compression cholangiojejunostomy (LMCCJ) with laparoscopic hand-sutured cholangiojejunostomy (LHSCJ). MethodsA retrospective case-control study was performed. From January 2019 to May 2022, 37 patients, who underwent laparoscopic treatment in this hospital, were enrolled in this study. There were 16 cases in the LMCCJ group and 21 cases in the LHSCJ group. The demographic information, procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction, postoperative hospital stay, operative complications, magnets expulsion time, and follow-up results were collected and analyzed. ResultsThere were no statistical differences in the baseline data such as the gender, age, composition of primary diseases, preoperative total bilirubin, and preoperative common bile duct diameter between the two groups (P>0.05). The outer diameter of the magnets was (10.50±0.97) mm, the expulsion time of the magnets was (49.69±37.58) d, and the expulsion rate of the magnets was 100% (16/16). There was no intestinal obstruction or gastrointestinal perforation caused by the retention of the magnets. The procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction in the LMCCJ group was statistically shorter than that in the LHSCJ group [(11.31±3.40) min vs. (24.81±3.40) min, t=11.96, P<0.01]. There was no statistical difference in the total bilirubin level at the first week after surgery between the two groups (U=142.0, P=0.80). The postoperative hospital stay in the LMCCJ group was longer than that in the LHSCJ group [(28.31±14.11) d vs. (16.19±7.56) d, t=3.36, P<0.01]. During the perioperative period, there was no bleeding or biliary infection in the two groups, but one case of biliary leak in the LHSCJ group. In all 37 patients were followed-up for (548.8±259.2) d. During the follow-up period, the incidence rates of biliary intestinal anastomosis stenosis, tumor recurrence, and mortality had no statistical differences between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionFrom the results of comparative analysis in this study, it can be concluded that LMCCJ is not only safe equally, but also easier and less time-consuming as compared with LHSCJ.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of transorally inserted anvil (OrVilTM) for laparoscopic total gastrectomy compared with open total gastrectomy.MethodsRetrospectively summarized the 285 gastric cancer patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University between December 2012 and April 2018, of them 156 patients underwent laparoscopic total gastrectomy (being reconstructed by OrVilTM) via 129 patients underwent open total gastrectomy. Operation-associated parameters and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe intraoperative blood loss was significantly less, proximal resection margin was significantly longer, and first ambulatory time, time to first flatus, time to fluid diet were significantly shorter in the laparoscopic total gastrectomy group (P<0.05). Whereas the total operative time, esophagojejunostomy time, numbers of dissected lymph nodes, time to remove drainage tube, length of postoperative hospital stay, and morbidity of postoperative complication (including anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, anastomotic bleeding, celiac and pleural effusion or infection) were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionOrVilTM is a technically safe and feasible surgical procedure for esophagojejunostomy in laparoscopic total gastrectomy.
