ObjectiveTo explore the application value of multidisciplinary collaborative team (MDT) model in retroperitoneal tumors involving large vessels.MethodsThree cases of retroperitoneal tumors involving great vessels admitted to Xiang’an Hospital of Xiamen University in 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. With the support of 3D visual reconstruction and virtual reality (VR) technology, we performed MDT discussion and three cases received treatment of surgery, intervention, and targeted therapy.ResultsCase 1 was discussed by MDT and concluded that, based on CT examination, 3D reconstruction, and VR virtual image results, the tumor on the right side was determined to be completely resectable. The left tumor was judged to be unresectable, and the proposed treatment plan was right metastatic tumor resection + left metastatic tumor radiofrequency ablation. After surgery case 1 had been followed up for 6 months. The symptoms of diarrhea were significantly improved. CT reexamination showed that liver lesions and left retroperitoneal lesions were the same size and the condition was stable. After discussion by MDT, radiofrequency ablation around the tumor was proposed for case 2. This case was followed up for 3 months after surgery, and CT reexamination showed no new lesion in retroperitoneum. After MDT discussion, we concluded that arteriovenous fistula of case 3 had no indications for surgery, and proposed interventional combined with targeted therapy. After treatment, the tumor was found to be smaller after reexamination in 8 months than before treatment, and the efficacy was evaluated as partial remission. The follow-up was continued.ConclusionThe future development trend of retroperitoneal tumor therapy involving great vessels is to evaluate each patient’s condition under the MDT mode by using 3D visual reconstruction and VR technology, and to formulate the individualized treatment plan of operation combined with other treatments.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of individual surgery for chronic Achilles tendon rupture. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 25 patients (26 Achilles tendons) with chronic Achilles tendon rupture between September 2009 and March 2016, including 22 males and 3 females with a mean age of 38 years (range,18-59 years). The median disease duration was 12 weeks (range, 4 weeks to 12 years). The repairing method depended on the defect size, injury site, and tissue condition of the involved Achilles tendon: 9 Achilles tendons were repaired by end-to-end anastomosis, 8 by a gastrocnemius turndown flap, and 9 by auto free tendon (4 ipsilateral hamstring tendon and 5 ipsilateral 2/3 peroneus longus tendon). The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hind foot score, heel lifting of the affected leg, active ankle range of motion (plantar flexion and dorsiflexion), maximum calf circumference, and complications were applied to assess the effectiveness. Results Hypersensitivity occurred in 1 incision, and stage I healing was obtained in the other incisions. No complication of re-rupture, infection, nerve injury, or deep venous thrombosis occurred. All the patients were followed up 8-85 months (mean, 34 months). The AOFAS ankle-hind foot score was significantly improved to 95.81±5.34 at last follow-up from preoperative 50.54±5.52 (t=–34.844,P=0.000); the excellent and good rate was 100% (excellent in 21 cases and good in 4 cases). The active dorsiflexion of the operated side [(13.9±2.4)°] was significantly lower than that of normal side [(16.7±2.0)°] (t=–9.099,P=0.000), but the active plantar flexion showed no significant difference between affected side [(39.8± 3.2)°] and normal side [(40.6±2.6°)] (t=–1.917,P=0.068). The maximum calf circumference of the operated side [(379.4±18.8) mm] was significantly lower than that of normal side [(387.1±16.6) cm] (t=–5.053,P=0.000). The other patients could finish heel lifting of the affected leg without limitation except for 1 patient. All patients returned to normal work and activity, and 12 patients returned to normal sports. Conclusion Individual surgery depending on the defect, injury site, and tissue condition of the involved Achilles tendon can repair all kinds of chronic Achilles tendon rupture with a low rate of complications.
ObjectiveTo evaluate feasibility and clinical effect of individual therapy for venous ulceration of lower extremity. MethodsFrom February 2012 to February 2014, 360 cases (totally 421 lower limbs) treated by the individual therapy were analyzed retrospectively. There were 126 male and 234 female patients, with a mean age of 53 years (ranging from 45 to 78 years). The venous ulceration occurred in left limb for 176 cases, right limb for 123 cases, and both limbs for 61 cases. The individualized treatment plans were performed for all the patients according to the color Doppler before the operation. The perforating vein was ligated during the operation, and elastic stockings were wore after operation. The operation time, postoperative VAS pain score, perioperative complications, ulcer healing and recurrence were recorded. ResultsThe operations were completed in all the patients, the average operation time was 35 min. The average VAS pain score was 2.6 at 8 h after operation, the pain was disappeared nearly at 24 h after operation. The time of returning to normal activity was 3 d. The incision bleeding occurred in 5 cases, the ulcer infection occurred in 32 lower limbs. The patients were followed-up for 12 months to 24 months, all the ulcers were healed, there were 9 cases of recurrence. ConclusionIndividual therapy for venous ulceration of lower extremity is safe, effective, fewer complications, fast ulcer healing, and less postoperative pain.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical phenotype of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by cluster analysis and provide a basis for individualized treatment.MethodsA total of 515 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD admitted to this department from January 2014 to December 2016 were enrolled. The age, duration, smoking index, number of hospitalizations in the past 1 year, hospitalization days, treatment costs and other information were collected for cluster analysis.ResultsThe patients were divided into three categories of phenotype: " mild-glucocorticoid resistance-antibiotic dependent”," mild-glucocorticoid sensitive”, and " serious complication”. The patients with the first two phenotypes had a milder condition and lower hospitalization costs. There were differences in the time and cumulative dose of glucocorticoids in different pathways, antibiotic use time and usage rate. The third phenotype was the most serious, with the highest cost of hospitalization, and may merge or co-exist with other diseases such as cardiovascular disease and digestive tract disease.ConclusionCluster analysis may identify different phenotypes of acute exacerbation of COPD to provide a reference for clinical individualized treatment.

MethodThe clinical data of 20 patients who were diagnosed as pancreatic cystic disease combined with rupture in the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from June 2011 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Results① For the 5 patients with pancreatic cystic tumor, 3 patients of them received distal pancreatectomy and 2 patients of them received Whipple procedure. For the 15 patients with pancreatic pseudocyst, 2 patients received ultrasound-guided cyst puncture and drainage, 2 patients received endoscopic retrograde pancreatic drainage (ERPD), 2 patients received ERPD plus ultrasound-guided cyst puncture and drainage, 1 patient received pancreatic external drainage, 3 patients received pancreatic cyst-gastric anastomosis, 5 patients received pancreatic cyst-jejunal Roux-en-Y anastomosis. ② Pancreatic fistula occurred in 3 patients (Grade A 2 cases, Grade B 1 case), delayed gastric emptying was found in 1 patient, peritoneal effusion occurred in 1 patient. ③ Eighteen of them were followed up from 3 to 60 months with an average 25.6 months, 2 patients recurred and non-surgical treatments were taken. ConclusionsHow to correctly identify pancreatic cystic tumor with pancreatic pseudocyst is premise of treatment. Pancreatic cystic disease combined with rupture requires urgent therapy. Based on clinical manifestations, optimal selection might achieve a better prognosis.
Objective To evaluate the importance of "one-stop" hybrid operating room in the individualized treatment of aortic pathology. Method We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 247 patients of aortic pathology who were operated in the hybrid operating room in our hospital from January 2013 through December 2014. There were 193 males and 54 females at age of 24-83(54±12) years. Results Thoracic or abdominal endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR/EVAR) was applied in 132 patients, including 122 simple patients and 10 complexes. Fenestrated TEVAR was applied in 61 patients. Hybrid operation was done in 54 patients. Perioperative death occurred in 9 patients (3.6%). Perioperative complication rate was 11.7% (29/247) . The patients were followed up for one year. During follow-up, five patients were dead. The one-year survival rate was 98.0% (242/247) . Conclusions "One-stop" individualized treatment of aortic pathology shows its advantage, yet long-term result still needs to be followed up.
