Objective To discuss the safety,feasibility,and advantages of two-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).Methods The clinical data of 114 patients underwent LC from June 2008 to October 2010 were retrospectively analyzed,of which 46 underwent two-port LC (two-port LC group,n=46) and 68 underwent three-port LC (three-port LC group,n=68). The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative feeding time,postoperative pain,postoperative hospital stay,and hospitalization expenses were compared between two groups. Results All the operations were successful,no postoperative complications occurred in both groups.The operation time in the two-port LC group was longer than that in the three-port LC group (P<0.05). The intraoperative blood loss,postoperative feeding time,postoperative pain,and postoperative hospital stay had no significant differences in two groups (P>0.05). The hospitalization expenses in the two-port group was less than that in the three-port group(P<0.05). Conclusions Two-port LC is a safe and feasible operation in the simple gallstone patients. It is cautious in those patients with acute cholecystitis because of the restricted vision and operation.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapic efficacy for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) during different periods. MethodsAccording to internalized standard, 234 patients with SAP admitted to this hospital from January 1986 to October 2009 were included, which were divided into two stages based on the time of admitting to this hospital. The first stage named prior operation group was from January 1986 to August 1998 (n=117), the second stage named individual treatment group was from September 1998 to October 2009 (n=117). There was comparability in demography and clinic between two groups. The prior operation group primarily underwent laparotomy and medication, and the individual treatment group underwent multiple combined therapies. These indexes were compared between two groups: hospital stay, cure rate, and mortality; the incidences of pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatic and peripancreatic abscess, pancreatic encephalopathy, cardiac insufficiency, acute renal failure (ARF), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and shock. The efficacies for early treatment, ascites, biliary pancreatitis, and pancreatic and peripancreatic complications were compared two groups by stratified analysis. ResultsCompared with the prior operation group, the hospital stay was shorter (Plt;0.05), cure rate was higher (Plt;0.001), and mortality was lower in the individual treatment group (Plt;0.001). During the treatments, the incidences of pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatic and peripancreatic abscess, pancreatic encephalopathy, cardiac insufficiency, ARF, ARDS, and shock in the individual treatment group were lower than those in the prior operation group (Plt;0.05). According to the stratified analysis, the efficacies for early treatment, ascites, biliary pancreatitis, and pancreatic and peripancreatic complications in the individual treatment group were better than those in the prior operation group (Plt;0.001). ConclusionIn recent years, the change of therapeutic mode significantly improves the treatment efficacy for SAP.
