ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and advantages of general laparoscopic cholecystectomy and gynecologic uterus and attachment surgery at the same time. MethodsSixty patients with gallbladder stones combined with ovarian cysts, benign gynecological disease or fallopian tube adhesions aged between 35 and 55 were chosen from the department of General Surgery and Gynecology and Obstetrics to be the study subjects between January 2009 and December 2013. The inclusion criteria included: gallbladder stones; gallbladder wall thickness <0.5 cm; non-acute inflammation; symptomatic gynecological diseases; and tumor size between 5.0 and 10.0 cm. Based on similar age, body mass, and histological type, the patients were divided into laparoscopic surgery (GLS) group and staging surgery group (control group) according to the will of the patients. The anesthesia time, surgery time, the number of abdominal perforations, length of hospital stay, and total costs were detected for comparison between the two groups. ResultsThe first-time operation was successful in all the patients in the CLS group, with two cases of abnormal liver function, which were cured within 5-6 days. In the control group, 2 cases of reoperation were transferred to laparotomy due to umbilical and peritoneal adhesions, and both of them were cured and discharged from hospital without incision infection or iatrogenic tissue and organ damage. CLS group had significant advantages in anesthesia time, surgery time, the number of abdominal perforations, length of hospital stay, and total costs over the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionThe combined gynecologic laparoscopic surgery is feasible, safe, mini-invasive, and economical.
ObjectiveTo explore the association between viral hepatitis and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). MethodsDatabase of Medline, Embase, PubMed, CNKI, and Wanfang were searched for the articles which were related to the relationship between viral hepatitis and ECC. After the quality evaluation and the data extraction of the literatures, statistical software of RevMan 5.0 was used to perform Meta analysis. ResultsAccording to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, 9 articles were enrolled, 8 articles of them were related to hepatitis B virus(HBV) and 6 articles of them were related to hepatitis C virus(HCV). Meta analysis results showed that the HBV infection may be the risk factor for ECC(OR=1.69, 95% CI:1.32-2.17, P<0.000 1). In the United States, HCV infection may be the risk factor for ECC(OR=5.53, 95% CI:2.21-13.82, P=0.000 3), but the relationship was not found in China(OR=0.82, 95% CI:0.44-1.52, P=0.520 0). ConclusionsThe present studies suggest that HBV infection may be a high risk factor for ECC. HCV in the United States can increase the incidence of ECC, but the situation can not be found in China.
