ObjectiveTo summarize recent research on the surgical treatment of breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and to review the impact of NAC on the surgical treatment of breast cancer. MethodRelevant studies on NAC and surgical treatment of breast cancer from both domestic and international sources were reviewed. The literatures were analyzed, summarized, and discussed. ResultsFollowing NAC, the survival outcomes and risk of local recurrence in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery were similar to those undergoing mastectomy. The using of image-guided minimally invasive biopsy accurately predicted pathological complete remission (pCR) of breast lesions after NAC, potentially allowed some breast cancer patients to undergo only radiation therapy after NAC, thus avoiding breast surgery. For patients with positive axillary lymph nodes, techniques such as dual-tracer, triple-tracer, and targeted axillary lymph node dissection had achieved clinical requirements in terms of detection rate and false-negative rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy, provided a safe alternative to axillary lymph node dissection. ConclusionsNAC is an important component of comprehensive breast cancer treatment. However, there is still controversy regarding the local treatment of the primary breast lesion and axillary lymph nodes after NAC. Currently, individualized treatment based on the specific circumstances of the patient remains the approach in clinical practice, aiming to achieve the optimal control of local recurrence and survival benefits for patients.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress on the impact of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy on frailty, cognitive function, and quality of life in older patients with breast cancer.MethodCollected literatures about the impact of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy on frailty, cognitive function, and quality of life in older patients with breast cancer to make an review.ResultsElderly breast cancer patients were likely to benefit from postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy without undergoing significant impairment of frailty, cognitive function, and quality of life. However, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy might cause an aggravation of the frailty in patients who was already with it.ConclusionWe should develop personalized treatment plans for elderly breast cancer patients after multidisciplinary assessment.
ObjectiveTo compare the keyhole approach and traditional craniotomy in the treatment of basal ganglia region hypertension cerebral hemorrhage postoperative epileptic curative effect comparison keyhole approach and traditional craniotomy in the treatment of basal ganglia region the curative effect of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage postoperative epilepsy. MethodsCollected cases of basal ganglia region admitted in department of neurosurgery our hospital from September 2006 to March 2015, 108 cases of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage patients, randomly divided into two groups:keyhole approach group (58 cases) and conventional surgery group (50 cases).Two groups of patients with perioperative all use the same management scheme, using statistical methods to analyze clinical data of two groups of patients, such as age, sex, blood loss, postoperative epilepsy, drug efficacy and the incidence of adverse drug reactions, etc. ResultsPostoperative follow-up of 2 years, keyhole approach group 12 cases sufferred postoperative seizure, 1 case of patients with status epilepticus, no death occurred; a total of 10 cases of mono-antiepileptic drug(AEDs) therapy effectively, and 7 cases present adverse drug reactions; Traditional surgical postoperative seizures 22 cases, 9 cases occurred status epilepticus, and five died as a result, only five were effective for single therapy, and 15 cases with adverse drug reactions.Statistical results suggest the incidence of postoperative epilepsy, the incidence of severe epilepsy, prognosis, single drug control and adverse drug reactions between the tuo groups have significant difference (P < 0.05). ConclusionCompared with traditional craniotomy for removal of hematoma, keyhole approach greatly reduce the incidnce of basal ganglia region hypertension cerebral hemorrhage postoperative complications, severe epilepsy and adverse reaction of AEDs.Therefore, keyhole approach in the treatment of basal ganglia region hypertension cerebral hemorrhage is an admirable way of treatment.
ObjectiveTo explore the related risk factors of epilepsy after traumatic skull defect repair.MethodsThe clinical data of 72 cases patients underwent cranial three-dimensional titanium mesh repair in Neurosurgery Department of Sichuan Baoshihua Hospital from February 2010 to December 2017 were collected and followed up for 6 months, retrospectively analysed the causes and operation problems of secondary epilepsy after repair.Results21 casese (29.2%) among the 72 cases patients underwent cranioplasty were found with secondary epilepsy. Univariate analysis showed that the rate of secondary epilepsy in patients with softening lesion of gray matter, no formal antiepileptic treatment after the first operation, suspension of dural during operation and repair time of the trauma >6 months was significantly higher than that in patients without secondary epilepsy (P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to correct the results, showing that softening lesion in the gray matter [OR=8.425, 95% CI (2.541, 27.934), P<0.001)], no formal antiepileptic treatment after the first operation [OR=0.160, 95% CI (0.050, 0.518), P=0.002], intra-operative suspended dural [OR=13.306; 95% CI (3.769, 46.976), P<0.001] and repair time of trauma >6 months [OR=6.205, 95% CI (1.705, 22.583], P=0.006] were independent risk factors of secondary epilepsy.ConclusionAfter decompression of bone flap, regular antiepileptic therapy, shortening repair time, and proper peroperative management can reduce the incidence of postoperative epilepsy.
At present, breast cancer is most common malignant tumor among female population. The treatment of breast cancer comprises surgery, radiotherapy, neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy, with surgical as the main treatment approach. Common surgical methods for breast cancer include breast conservation surgery (BCS) and mastectomy. This article reviews the recent researches about the survival of breast cancer patients receiving BCS, the quality of life for patients receiving BCS, the survival of young and elderly patients receiving BCS, BCS after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, BCS for patients with breast cancer susceptibility gene mutation, and BCS for patients with ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence, so as to provide reference for the follow-up work of medical staff.
Objective?To systematically evaluate the effects of thoracic epidural anesthesia on outcome after coronary artery bypass surgery. Methods?We searched PubMed, EBSCO, Springer, Ovid, and CNKI databases from 1990 through Oct. 2009 to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about thoracic epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia versus general anesthesia alone on outcome after coronary artery bypass surgery. The methodological quality of the included RCTs was assessed and the data was extracted according to the Cochrane Reviewer’s Handbook. The homogeneous RCTs were pooled using RavMan 4.2.10 software. Results?Sixteen RCTs involving 1 316 patients met the inclusion criteria. The results of meta-analyses showed that thoracic epidural anesthesia significantly reduced time to tracheal extubation (MD= –332.43, 95%CI –640.19 to –24.68, P=0.03), visual analog scale (VAS) scores at rest on postoperation day 1 (MD= –1.23, 95%CI –2.19 to –0.27, P=0.01), VAS scores with movement on postoperation day 1 (MD= –2.52, 95%CI –4.65 to –0.39, P=0.02) and day 2 (MD= –1.5, 95%CI –2.56 to –0.43, P=0.006), and incidences of myocardial ischemia (RR=0.53, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.97, P=0.04). There were no significant differences between the two groups in postoperative pulmonary function, incidences of myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and mortality. Conclusions?Thoracic epidural anesthesia could reduce postoperative time to tracheal extubation, VAS score, and incidences of myocardial ischemia, but it does not affect postoperative pulmonary function, incidences of myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and mortality. More high-quality RCTs are required.
Objective To summarize the description about the pure noninvasive breast carcinoman in guidelines. Methods The related guidelines and literatures about the pure noninvasive breast carcinoma were collected to make a review. Results Through reviewing the guidelines of breast carcinoma, including Chinese Anti Cancer Association (CACA), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), St.Gallen, European Society for Medical Oncology Clinical Practice Guidelines for Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up, as well as Japanese Breast Cancer Society Clinical Practice Guideline, we find that, the main treatment of noninvasive breast carcinoma is operation and the surgery for axillary is not recommended by most guidelines. The sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) should be performed only when the invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is suspected or location of lesion would decrease the success of SLNB in the future. The radiotherapy should be advised to patients following conservation surgery. The patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive should undergo endocrine therapy. However, the using of endocrine therapy should be discussed with patient. Conclusions Although the prognosis of pure noninvasive breast carcinoma is better than invasive cancer, the research about it is still less, and the treatments recommended by guidelines are different. The more attention should be paid to the research about the pure noninvasive carcinoma.
Objective To summarize the clinical outcome of combined operation for patients with Cockett syndrome complicated with acute symptomatic deep venous thrombosis （DVT）. Methods From October 2008 to March 2012， a total of 23 patients （male 8 cases and female 15 cases；mean age 59.3 years old， range 36-76 years old） with Cockett syndrome complicated with acute symptomatic DVT were underwent combined surgical venous thrombectomy and endovascular stenting in ipisilateral iliac vein in our hospital. All the patients were underwent duplex ultrasonography for diagnosis of DVT. The location of thrombosis in the left iliofemoral vein was 21 cases， right iliofemoral vein was 2 cases. The affected limb of all the patients were severely swell and pain. The mean time of symptomatic DVT occurring at operation was 2.53d. All the operations were performed under general anesthesia. The inferior vena cava filter was inserted before thrombectomy， iliac vein compression was diagnosed by angiography and treated with self-expandable stent after thrombectomy. Twenty-eight self-expandable stents were placed successfully. Results In all the cases， the procedural successful rate was 100%， the 30-day mortality rate was 0. One case suffered from hematoma at incision after operation. Median follow-up was 11.7 months （range 3-26 months）. There was no case of rethrombosis. Symptoms were disappeared in 21 cases， the leg slightly swelled in 2 patients. Conclusion Combined surgical thrombectomy and endovascular treatment for patients with Cockett syndrome complicated with acute symptomatic DVT is an effective and safe technique with low morbidity and good clinical results.
