Abstract: Objective To investigate the role of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in treatment of benign pulmonary disease, in order to promo te the mini-invasive way of operation. Methods From May 2001 to M ay 2006, 128 patients with benign pulmonary diseases were treated by VATS. The diseases included 17 kinds of different lesions, such as tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, inflammatory pseudotumor, giant bullae of lung, hamartoma,lymphangiomyomatosis, etc. 53 cases had definite diagnosis before operation, the others had final diagnosis by pathology. Limited resection were performed in 66 cases, single lobectomy in 56 cases, bilobectomy in 2 cases, and concomitant bilateral lobectomy in 4 cases. Limited resections were carried out by pure thoracoscopic procedure with three ports, lobectomies were carried out by video-assisted minithoracotomy with 7-10cm incision. Results For lim ited resect ion, the average operat ive durat ion w as 110m in (30-180m in) , blood loss was 60m l (10-300m l) , none had intraoperative blood transfusion needed. Conversion to minithoracotomy occurred in 2 patients. Postoperative bleeding happened in one case, which was controlled by medicine. Average length of stay was 6. 5 days. For lobectomy, the average operation time was 145 min (80-260min) , blood loss was 190ml (50-500m l) , no intraoperative blood tansfusion needed. Conversion to tranditional thoracotomy occurred in 3 patients, pneumonia occurred in 2 patients, delayed healing of mini-incision occurred in 2 patients. One diaphragmat ic hernia and one active bleeding after operat ion underwent second thoracotomy. Average length of postoperative stay was 7. 4 days (4-13d). For bilateral lobectomies, the average operative duration was 330min (270-415m in) , postoperative length of hospital stay was 10.7days (8-16d). No perioperative death occurred. Conclusion VATS for benign pulmonary disease is miniinvasive and safe, the pat ients recover quickly. It could be the choice of operation for selected patients in equipped center.
目的 探讨肝门部胆管癌2种手术方法的疗效。方法 回顾性分析我院1998~2006年期间收治的37例肝门部胆管癌患者的临床资料。结果 37例患者中13例行根治性手术切除, 其1年与3年的生存率分别为100%(13/13)和76.92%(10/13),中位生存期为22.43个月; 另24例行姑息性手术(均为肝内胆管内引流术),其1年与3年生存率分别为54.55%(12/22)和9.09%(2/22),中位生存期为15.42个月。结论 根治性手术是治疗肝门部胆管癌的主要手段; 姑息性手术,如合理的肝内胆管内引流能改善患者的生存质量。
