ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical and cosmetic outcome of patients with early breast cancer underwent oncoplastic techniques in breast conserving surgery. MethodsClinical data of 59 patients with early stage breast cancer who underwent oncoplastic techniques in the breast conserving surgery were analyzed retrospectively from January 2007 to March 2011. Cosmetic outcome score and patient satisfaction questionnaire were also assessed. ResultsThe age of the patients was (53.5±9.8) years (range, 32 to 77 years). The diameter of tumors was (1.6±0.7) cm (range, 0.5 to 4.0 cm). The foci located at upper quadrant in 38, lower quadrant in 17, central area in 4. During operation, single incision approach was used in 25 patients, two incisions approach in 34 patients. A variety of methods were used to repair breast defects including mammary gland direct suture in 9 patients, mammary gland pedicle flaps in 35, local flaps or adipofascial flap in 9, latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps in 2, and reduction mammaplasty with “J” or double ring incision in 4. The mean followup period was 30 months (range, 3 to 53 months), no local recurrence was detected. However, bone metastases was found in one patient on 14 months after operation. Fifty-three patients (89.8%) had good to excellent aesthetic results with cosmetic outcome score ≥26. Patient satisfaction questionnaire showed that 40 patients (67.8%) were excellent, 14 (23.7%) good, 3 (5.1%) fair, and 2 (3.4%) poor. ConclusionOncoplastic techniques in the breast conservative therapy for early stage breast cancer is a safe and effective procedure, with highly satisfactory cosmetic outcomes in the majority of patients.
Objective To determine the effectiveness of percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) and to compare PCD with percutaneous needle aspiration (PNA) in the management of bacterial liver abscess. Methods The medical records of 206 patients with bacterial liver abscess admitted to this hospital between January 1989 and December 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. The outcomes of 96 patients receiving percutaneous treatment including PCD (PCD group, n=56) and PNA (PNA group, n=40) were compared, including the length of hospital stay, rates of procedure-related complications, treatment success, and death. Results There was no statistical difference in patients’ demographics or abscess characteristics between two groups (Pgt;0.05). The morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay in the PCD group and the PNA group were 1.79% vs 2.50%， 1.79% vs 2.50%， and (19.2±13.1) d vs (20.2±12.9) d, respectively, and the P values were 1.000, 1.000, and 0.887, respectively. There was statistically significant difference in successful rate between two groups （96.43% vs 75.00%， P=0.002）, but all simple abscesses with diameter of 5 cm or less were successfully managed in both PNA group and PCD group （13/13 vs 16/17， P=1.000）. Conclusions PCD is more effective than PNA in the management of bacterial liver abscess. PNA can be used as a valid alternative for simple abscesses with 5 cm in diameter or smaller.
ObjectiveTo investigate the role of intraoperative frozen section pathology in central lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), and to analyze the risk factors of central lymph node metastasis.MethodsClinical data of 481 patients diagnosed with PTMC from January 2015 to June 2019 in our hospital were included. The consistency of frozen pathological results of intraoperative prelaryngeal lymph nodes, pretracheal lymph nodes, and paratracheal lymph nodes with postoperative paraffin pathological results, as well as the relationship between the numbers of intraoperative lymph nodes sent for examination and postoperative pathological results were analyzed. Then the Kappa value were calculated respectively. Furthermore, univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the factors affecting central lymph node metastasis.ResultsCentral lymph node metastasis was found in 207 patients with PTMC (43.0%). Of the 207 patients, 192 patients were examined by frozen section, with 139 patients had positive results. The Kappa value of prelaryngeal lymph nodes, paratracheal lymph nodes, pretracheal lymph nodes, and central lymph nodes were 0.300, 0.643, 0.560, and 0.755, respectively (P<0.001). Simultaneous intraoperative examination of three anatomic lymph nodes in the central region has a high accuracy in evaluating whether there was lymph node metastasis. The consistency test between intraoperative frozen and postoperative paraffin pathological results showed that when the number of lymph nodes was less than 5, the Kappa value was 0.690 (P<0.001), and when more than or equal to 5, the Kappa value was 0.816 (P<0.001). The results of logistic regression showed that, maximum value of tumor diameter, tumor number, and thyroid capsule involvement were risk factors for central region lymph node metastasis in PTMC (P<0.05).ConclusionsCentral region lymph node metastasis in PTMC was common. Prelaryngeal lymph nodes, pretracheal lymph nodes, and paratracheal lymph nodes should be selected for frozen pathological examination during the operation, which could effectively indicate whether the central lymph nodes were involved. And combined with the risk factors of lymph node metastasis, such as maximum value of tumor diameter, number of tumors, and thyroid capsule involvement, a more accurate individualized operation plan can be designed for patients.
Objective To evaluate the application effect of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) in immediate breast reconstruction after mammary mastectomy with prosthetic implants. Methods The clinical data of 68 patients with breast cancer undergoing immediate breast reconstruction with prosthetic implantation in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed and divided into ADM group (n=43) and non-ADM group (n=25), according to the use of ADM in the posterior space of pectoralis major muscle while prosthesis implantation or not. The size of breast prosthesis, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage duration, total drainage, total hospital stay, postoperative complications, postoperative cosmetic effect and quality of life of patients were compared between the two groups. Results Patients in the ADM group showed no statistically significant difference regarding operative time, drainage duration, total drainage, hospital stay, postoperative complications and intraoperative removed gland volume with the non-ADM group (P>0.05). The average intraoperative blood loss in the ADM group was less than that of the non-ADM group, the average volume of prosthesis in the ADM group was bigger than that of the non-ADM group, the volume difference between prosthesis and removed gland in the ADM group was smaller than that of the non-ADM group, which was considered statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The subjective satisfaction and objective measurement scores of patients in the ADM group were significantly better than those of the non-ADM group, especially in the symmetry of breast, surgical scar and distance of lateral displacement of nipple (P<0.05). The postoperative quality of life in the ADM group was significantly better than that of the non-ADM group in terms of body image, sexual function and sexual interest (P<0.01). Conclusions It is safe and feasible to use ADM-assisted the immediate breast reconstruction after nipple-sparing mammary mastectomy with prosthetic implantation. As an extension of the pectoralis major muscle, ADM can enlarge the posterior space for the prosthesis implantation, making the choice of the prosthesis much more easier. The combined application of ADM can obtain a better cosmetic effect, meanwhile improving the postoperative quality of life and satisfaction of patients.
Objective To analyze the treatment and effect of bacterial liver abscess over the past two decades in one single center. Methods The total 198 patients with bacterial liver abscess during the last twenty years were studied retrospectively. They were divided into three groups according time: 1989-1995 group, 1996-2002 group and 2003-2008 group. Gender and age of patient, location, number and size of abscesses, treatment, hospital days, morbidity of complications and mortality among the groups were compared. Results There were 54, 69, 75 cases in 1989-1995, 1996-2002 and 2003-2008 group respectively. No significant differences were found in gender and age of patient, location, number and size of abscess among three groups （Pgt;0.05）. In 1989-1995 group, 35 cases (64.8%) were treated with laparotomy, 8 cases (14.8%) with laparoscope, and 11 cases (20.4%) with percutaneous treatment (needle aspiration or catheter drainage). In 1996-2002 group, 15 cases (21.8%) were treated with laparotomy, 21 cases (30.4%) with laparoscope, 31 cases (44.9%) with percutaneous treatment (needle aspiration or catheter drainage), and 2 cases (2.9%) were treated with antibiotherapy. In 2003-2008 group, 5 cases (6.7%) were treated with laparotomy, 13 cases (17.3%) with laparoscope, 54 cases (72.0%) with percutaneous treatment (needle aspiration or catheter drainage), and 3 cases (4.0%) were treated with antibiotherapy. The constituent ratio of treatment was significantly different among three groups (P＜0.05). The hospital days was (18.5±12.2) d, (16.4±12.8) d and (20.1±14.6) d, the morbidity of complications was 9.3% (5/54), 4.3%(3/69) and 4.0%(3/75), the mortality was 3.7%(2/54), 1.4%(1/69) and 1.3% (1/75) respectively, but there were no significant differences of three indexes among three groups. Conclusion With the development of surgical techniques, effective antibiotic therapy and percutaneous treatment (needle aspiration or catheter drainage) have been the main therapeutic methods, and laparoscopy and laparotomy are necessary supplement.
Objective To investigate the value of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in predicting the metastasis of central cervical lymph nodes (CCLN) in differentiated thyroid carcinoma, and to explore reasonable program for CCLN dissection. Methods This retrospective analysis was performed basing on the clinical data of 407 patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma who were admitted to the Department of General Surgery of Xuanwu Hospital from June 2013 to December 2016, including 237 patients with microcarcinoma. Results ① The results of the lymph nodes detection. All patients had detected 7 766 lymph nodes (1 238 metastatic lymph nodes were detected from 219 patients), and 2 085 sentinel lymph nodes were detected (448 metastatic sentinel lymph nodes were detected from 189 patients). In the patients with microcarcinoma, there were 3 614 lymph nodes were detected (390 metastatic lymph nodes were detected from 97 patients), and 1 202 sentinel lymph nodes were detected (149 metastatic sentinel lymph nodes were detected from 82 patients). ② The value of SLNB to predict CCLN metastasis. The sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of SLNB to predict CCLN metastasis for all patients was 86.30% (189/219), 100% (188/188), 0 (0/189), 13.70% (30/219), 100% (189/189), and 86.24% (188/218) respectively; for patients with microcarcinoma was 84.54% (82/97), 100% (140/140), 0 (0/82), 15.46% (15/97), 100% (82/82), and 90.32% (140/155), respectively. ③ The value of SLNB to predict the presence of additional positive lymph nodes (APLN). The sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of SLNB to predict the APLN for all patients was 81.48% (132/162), 76.73% (188/245), 23.27% (57/245), 18.52% (30/162), 69.84% (132/189) and 86.24% (188/218), respectively; for patients with microcarcinoma was 73.68% (42/57), 77.78% (140/180), 22.22% (40/180), 26.32% (15/57), 51.22% (42/82) and 90.32% (140/155) respectively. ④ The value of positive sentinel lymph node ratio (PSLNR) to predict the presence of the APLN. The sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of PSLNR to predict the APLN for all patients was 71.97%, 78.95%, 21.05%, 28.03%, 88.79%, and 54.88% respectively, and the cutoff for PSLNR was 0.345 2. For patients with microcarcinoma, the sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of PSLNR to predict the APLN was 83.33%, 67.50%, 32.50%, 16.67%, 72.92%, and 79.41% respectively, and the cutoff for PSLNR was 0.291 7. Conclusion There is an important predicted value of SLNB for CCLN dissection in the patients suffered from differentiated thyroid carcinoma, and the PSLNR is a reliable basis for CCLN dissection.
Objective To evaluate the risk factors for cognitive impairment and their interactions in acute ischemic stroke (IS) patients. Methods IS patients admitted to the Department of Neurology, the People’s Hospital of Mianyang between January 2019 and January 2022 were selected. Patients were divided into a cognitive impairment group and a cognitive normal group. The demographic characteristics and clinical data of the subjects were collected, and the traditional risk factors for cognitive impairment were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The multifactor dimensionality reduction test was used to detect the possible interactions between risk factors. Results A total of 255 patients were included. Among them, 88 cases (34.5%) in the cognitive impairment group and 167 cases (65.5%) in the cognitive normal group. The results of factor logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for covariates, big and medium infarction volume, severe IS, moderate to severe carotid artery stenosis as well as high hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were associated with post-IS cognitive impairment (P<0.05). The cognitive impairment increased by 22.632 times [odds ratio=22.632, 95% confidence interval (5.980, 85.652), P<0.001] in patients with big and medium infarction volume, severe IS and high hs-CRP. Conclusions The cognitive impairment is common in acute IS. Patients with big and medium infarction volume, non-mild stroke, carotid artery stenosis, high hs-CRP, and non-right sided infarction are prone to cognitive impairment, and there are complex interactions among these risk factors.
Objective To discuss the methods of diagnosis and treatment of cystic neoplasms of pancreas. Methods Demographic data, clinical manifestations, diagnostic exams, surgical procedures, pathological diagnosis, postoperative complications, and follow-up data of 29 patients with cystic neoplasms of pancreas were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 8 （28%） serous cystic tumors （SCN）, 12 （41%） mucinous cystic tumors （MCN）, 3 （10%） intraductal papillary mucinous tumors （IPMN）, and 6 （21%） solid pseudopapillary tumors （SPT）. Eight cases of SCN, 7 cases of MCN, 1 case of IPMN, and 5 cases of SPT were all benign. The ages of the patients were from 15 to 78 years〔average, （49±17）years〕and all tumors were more common in female （76%, 22/29）. Twenty-three cases of 29 patients were performed operations, 22 cases were underwent surgical resection, and 1 case was performed exploration and biopsy. There was no surgery-related death. The rest 6 cases were not performed operation. Twenty-one cases followed-up for 6 months to 8 years 〔average, （2.7±2.3） years〕, 8 cases didn’t followed-up. Sixteen cases with surgical resection had no recurrence during follow-up period, 1 case performed exploration and biopsy died in 1 year after operation, and 4 cases of SCN without surgery didn’t deteriorate. Conclusions The most common cystic neoplasms of pancreas are mucinous and serous cysts. These tumors are more frequent in female. Although almost all serous cysts are benign, 42% of mucinous cysts are malignant. Misdiagnosis may delay appropriate treatment and increase mortality. The resection rate of pancreatic cystic tumor is high, and the prognosis is good after radical resection.
ObjectiveTo discuss the indications of the nonoperative management for perforated peptic ulcer. MethodsClinical data of 145 patients with perforated peptic ulcer, aged below 70 years old, with first attack and onset timelt;12 h , admitted to our hospital between January 2002 and December 2009, were analyzed respectively. Patients who were negative for fluid of abdominopelvic cavity in ultrasound examination and leakage in watersoluble contrast examination received nonoperative management, otherwise underwent operation directly (If the patients were being on medication for the ulcer, they should also go directly to surgery). Non-operative patients were converted to operation if the symptom had not relieved during the first 12 h. When admitted , the APACHE Ⅱ score was calculated for all patients. ResultsSeventy-four and 71 patients underwent non-operative management and operation directly respectively. Sex, age, onset time, perforation site and so on were comparable between the two groups （Pgt;0.05）, while APACHE Ⅱ score over 8 was 25.7% and 76.1% respectively with significant difference (P=0000). In nonoperative group, 11 (149%) patients were converted to operation. The mortality (4.1% vs 9.8%, P=0.203), mobility (16.2% vs 25.3%, P=0.175), hospital stay 〔(11.4±2.5) d vs (11.3±1.3) d, P=0.447〕, and cost 〔(11 657.3±2 826.4) yuan vs (10 013.0±1 877.4) yuan, P=0.212〕 between two groups had also no significant difference. The mean APACHE Ⅱ score was significant different between the survivors and the dead (9.3 vs 20.2, P=0.000). APACHE Ⅱ score was positively related to mortality and morbility （r=0.98, P=0.000； r=0.52, P=0.000）. ConclusionsNon-operative management is a safe and effective way in selected patients with perforated peptic ulcer, such as APACHE Ⅱ score ≤8, negative for fluid of abdominopelvic cavity in ultrasound examination, and leakage in water-soluble contrast examination. APACHE Ⅱ score is an important factor in prognosis of these patients.
