Clinical Application of Artificial Pneumoperitoneum and Gastrointestinal Contrast CT Imaging in Diagnosis of Abdominal Wall Adhesion to Intestine after Operation

ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility and safety of the artificial pneumoperitoneum and gastrointestinal contrast CT imaging, and imaging diagnostic value on abdominal wall adhesion to intestine after operation. MethodsThirtynine patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction after operation relieved by conservative therapy were included from January 2008 to November 2009. After the artificial pneumoperitoneum established by injection of gas into abdominal cavity and gastrointestinal comparison by oral administration low concentration of meglucamine diatrizoate, CT scan imaging was performed and the radiographic results were compared with surgical findings. ResultsFour patients refused surgery and discharged, so enterolysis was performed in the remaining patients. The surgical findings were consistent with radiographic results. It was showed by laparoscopic operation that intestinal obstruction caused by the fibrous adhesions and the intestine did not adhere to the abdominal wall in eight patients with fibrous adhesion diagnosed by CT. Of eighteen patients with the abdominal wall septally adhered to the intestinal, the surgical findings showed the intestine and the abdominal wall formed “M”type adhesions and omentum adhesions in sixteen patients underwent open operation, and clear fat space was showed in eight patients and close adhesion was found in another eight patients between the intestine and abdominal wall. Of thirteen patients with the abdominal wall tentiformly adhered to the intestinal, the surgical findings showed the intestine and the abdominal wall formed continuous and tentiform adhesions and omentum adhesions to the intestine in eleven patients. After the followup of 6-18 months (mean 9 months), incomplete intestinal obstruction occurred in one patient and was relieved by conservative treatment. One patient with discontinuous discomfort in abdomen after operation did not receive any treatment. The other patients were cured. ConclusionThe artificial pneumoperitoneum and gastrointestinal contrast CT imaging can accurately show the location, area, and structure composition of the postoperative abdominal wall adhesion to intestine, which is safety, simple, and bly repeatable, and a better imaging method for the diagnosing of abdominal wall adhesion to intestine after operation.

Application of Ultrasonically Activated Scalpel in Laparoscopic Intestinal Adhesion Release

【Abstract】ObjectiveTo study the application of ultrasonically activated scalpel in laparoscopic intestinal adhesion release.MethodsIntestinal adhesion release with ultrasonically activated scalpel under laparoscope was performed in 29 patients suffered from intestinal adhesive obstruction after gynecological operation. ResultsAll operations were successfully performed, and none of them converted into open surgery. Intestinal disruption occurred durring operation in 2 patients with extensive intestinal denseadhesion which were mended successfully under laparoscope. The operative duration was 30-150 min (mean 45 min). Postoperative complications such as bowel leakage, bleeding, abdominal infection were not experienced. Postoperative hospital stay was 3-7 days (mean 4 days). No case had relapse symptom such as abdominal distention or pain after 1-24 months of followup. ConclusionCompared with electric scalpel, ultrasonically activated scalpel can improve the operative safety, lessen tissue damage, shorten operative time, and reduce the chance of relapse in laparoscopic operation in gynecology.

Experimental Study on Preventing Postoperative Intestinal Adhesions by Methylene Blue and Aprotinin

ObjectiveTo investigate the synergetic effects of the combination methylene blue or/and aprotinin on preventing postoperative intestinal adhesions (POIA).MethodsFourtyeight rabbits were divided into control group (group A), methylene blue group (group B), aprotinin group (group C), methylene blue+aprotinin group (group D). Each group contained 12 rabbits and established models of intestinal adhesions through laporotomy. Fourteen days after operation, the rabbits were reoperated to see whether there were adhesions and the degree of adhesions. ResultsThe adhesions of group A was the most serious, then in sequence were group B, C, group D showed very light adhesion. Group A was much more severe than B, C, D group (Plt;0.01); group D was very different from B, C group (P＜0.05). ConclusionMethylene blue and aprotinin have significant effects on preventing POIA and the combination of the two drugs can have a synergetic effects on POIA.

链激酶预防肠粘连的动物实验研究

肠粘连是腹部手术常见的并发症之一，也是引起肠梗阻最常见的原因之一。据统计，腹部手术后腹腔粘连的发生率高达90%［1］，在引起肠梗阻的因素中约40%是由于术后肠粘连引起，因此探索能有效预防术后肠粘连的新方法具有十分重要的临床意义。链激酶是一种临床广泛应用于溶栓的高效酶，它具有促进纤维蛋白溶解系统活性的作用，能促使纤维蛋白溶酶原激活因子前体，转变为有活性的纤维蛋白溶酶，从而发挥溶解血栓的作用。本实验以SD大鼠为对象，初步研究了链激酶预防腹腔粘连的作用，现报道如下。

PLICATION OF SMALL INTESTINE FOR RECURRENT SMALL BOWEL OBSTRUCTION DUE TO ADHESIONS

Objective To array the small intestine so that the uncontrollable adhesions will turn to controllable abhesions in order to prevent the intestinal obstruction. Methods Literatures were reviewed. The advance of plication of small intestine has passed through three stages: 1st, sewing the intestine just like the array of harpsichord keys; then, using straight needle with coarse threads to make a ‘U’ suture for the mesentery of small intestine so the intestine was arrayed, and 3rd inserting a Millers-Abbott tube into the lumen of small intestine followed by manual arrangement of the intestine. Results Using the Millers-Abbott tube the intestine was fixed in a steady position and arrayed in a half moon circular shape to avoid sharp angle. As a result, the intra-luminal pressure of the intestinal was effectively decreased. Follow up 45 cases showed the cure rate of 91.9%. Conclusion This operation has widely been accepted by the surgeons for its simplicity, high efficacy and reliability. It reduces the recurrence rate of adhesive obstruction.

Mechanism of Sodium Aescinate in Preventing Postoperative Intestinal Adhesion in Rats

ObjectiveTo investigate the anti-inflammatory mechanism of sodium aescinate in preventing postoperative intestinal adhesion in rats. MethodsThe SD rats were subjected to operation for establishing intestinal adhesion models, then randomly divided into model group, dexamethasone group(dexamethasone, i.v. 5 mg/kg), and sodium aescinate group(sodium aescinate, i.v. 2 mg/kg), 10 rats in each group. Another ten normal rats were selected as sham operation group. One times administration was administered on day 1 before establishing adhesion model, and administration for 3 d after modeling, once a day. On day 7 after operation, all of the rats were killed. The intestinal adhesion was graded and the adhesive tissues were taken for hydroxyproline determination. The levels of tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α, interleukin(IL)-1β, and IL-6 in the serum were detected by ELISA. ResultsCompared with the model group, sodium aescinate could obviously improve the severity of postoperative adhesion, markedly decrease hydroxyproline content in the adhesive tissues(P < 0.01), and significantly inhibit the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the serum(P < 0.01). ConclusionSodium aescinate could effectively prevent the formation of postoperative intestinal adhesion by inhibiting the expressions of inflammatory cytokines and decreasing the inflammatory response.
