ObjectiveTo further explore and discuss the value of laparoscopic appendectomy. MethodsThe clinical data of 200 patients underwent appendectomy in this hospital from April 2009 to December 2010 were collected. The operation time, postoperative hospital stay, cost of hospitalization, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative pain score, and surgical complications were compared between laparoscopic appendectomy and open appendectomy. ResultsThere were 8 cases conversion to the open approach in this series. The cost of laparoscopic appendectomy was higher than that of open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); the cases of chronic appendicitis, acute simple appendicitis, acute suppurative appendicitis within 36 h of onset treated by laparoscopic appendectomy had shorter operation time, shorter postoperative hospital stay, earlier postoperative anal exhaust time, and slighter postoperative pain than those treated by open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); the differences in postoperative hospital stay, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative pain of acute suppurative appendicitis more than 36 h of onset and acute gangrenous appendicitis treated by two types of surgery had no statistical significances (Pgt;0.05); the operation time of acute gangrenous appendicitis operated by laparoscopic surgery was longer than that by open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); incision infection rate of laparoscopic appendectomy was lower than that of open appendectomy (Plt;0.05). ConclusionsFor chronic appendicitis, acute simple appendicitis, and acute suppurative appendicitis within 36 h of onset, the outcome and advantages of laparoscopic appendectomy are outstanding, the value of application is clear; and for acute suppurative appendicitis more than 36 h of onset and acute gangrenous appendicitis, laparoscopic appendectomy is difficult and with high rate of conversion, no obvious advantages in recovery after surgery but an increase of medical costs, and the application value is not great.
Objective To investigate the indication, operative approach, postoperative management, and complication of acetabular fracture. Methods Sixty-eight patients (51 males,17 females; age 15-65 years) with acetabular fracture were reviewed retrospectively. Among the patients, 55 were injured in the traffic accidents and 13 were injured in the falls (acute injury in 60, old injury in 8). According to the Letournel classification, 16 had a fracture of the posterior wall, 13 had a fracture of the posterior wall and posterior column, 12 had a fracture of the anterior wall and anterior column, 8 had a fracture of the anterior and posterior column, and 19 had a transverse acetabular fracture. All the patients underwent an operative treatment. Results There was no injury to the nerves and blood vessels during the operation. According to the 1-12-year follow-up for 51 patients, 26 (51.0%) patients had an excellent function, 17（33.3%）had a good function，6（11.8%）had a fair function, and 2（3.9%）had a poor function. The excellent and good rate was 84.3%. After operation, heterotopic ossification was observed in 4 patients, and necrosis of the femoral head in 2 patients. Conclusion Operative management should be performed as soon as possible in the patients with a displaced acetabular fracture. Recovery of the stability of the acetabulum and smoothness of the acetabular articular cartilage is important to the recovery of the function.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the technique of establishing a model of aparathyroid rat which could be used in the study of parathyroid cells transplantation. Methods Parathyroid glands were surgically excised and identified pathologyically. Serum calcium and parathyroid hormone in rats before operation and on day 2，5，10，15 and 30 after operation were measured. Results Parathyroid glands were resected successfully in 8 rats, and the resection rate was 80% (8/10). No obvious changes of serum calcium and parathyroid hormone levels were found before and after operatiion in sham parathyroid gland excision group (Pgt;0.05). However, statistically significant changes of those data were found perioperatively in parathyroid gland excision group (P＜0.01). Conclusion The model of aparathyroid rat can be established successfully after parathyroid glands in rats are excised exactly. Parathyroid allotransplantation could be performed ten days after parathyriodectomy.
ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility and safety of clinical application of bipolar coagulation forceps in open thyroid operations and summarize the operation skill. MethodsThe clinical data of 347 cases performed thyroid operations with bipolar coagulation forceps and Harmonic scalpel respectively from October 2010 to October 2014 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsNo statistical differences was found on the operative time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative drainage, and postoperative hospitalization of the two groups (P > 0.05). The complications of transient palsy of recurrent laryngeal nerve and transient functional insufficiency of parathyroid were more in Harmonic scalpel group than in bipolar coagulation forceps group with statistical difference (P < 0.05). But there was no difference of the complications of airway obstruction, permanent injuries of recurrent laryngeal nerve, parathyroid and superior laryngeal nerve in the two groups (P > 0.05). ConclusionsThyroid operations with bipolar coagulation forceps are safe and feasible. Coagulation tightly along the thyroid capsule followed by incision with explicit subtle dissection is the key point of the decrease of complications.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance and effect for surgery of Dukes D stage colorectal carcinoma. MethodsEightytwo cases of Dukes D stage colorectal carcinoma who underwent surgery from 1991 to 1998 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsTwentyone patients experienced extended resections,29 patients palliative resection, 19 patients sideside anastomosis and 13 patients laparotomy and biopsy of the tumor. Patients with extended resections had significantly long survival time, quality of life in these patients were excellent in 71.4%, good in 23.8%, and fair in 4.8%; whereas quality of life in the group with palliative resections were excellent in 62.1%, good in 17.2%, fair in 13.8%, and poor in 6.9%. The other two groups had a bad postoperative effect, short survival time and poor quality of life. ConclusionIf the patients with Dukes D stage colorectal carcinoma have operative indications,surgical therapy should be actively performed and the postoperative survival rate and quality of life can be improved.
Objective To probe into the significance of tuftsin in patients with liver cancer. MethodsThe serum tuftsin level of 12 patients with liver cancer before and after the resection，20 cirrhostic and 20 normal controls were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). ResultsTuftsin level in preoperative group （449±106） ng/ml was much lower than that in postoperative group (588±129) ng/ml，cirrhotics group (580±187) ng/ml and control group (703±128) ng/ml (P＜0.01). The tuftsin level in postoperative group was also quite lower than that in control group (P＜0.01). Conclusion We should try our best to excise the liver cancer so that a higher tuftsin level might be obtained which can activate NK cell and T cell.
OBJECTIVE To discuss the methods selection on treatment of body surface hemangioma. METHODS From February 1983 to March 2001, 265 patients with different types of body surface hemangioma were treated with prednisone in 94 cases, laser in 102 cases, and plastic surgery operation in 69 cases respectively. RESULTS Followed up 6 months to 15 years, 70 cases with prednisone treatment were cured (74.5%), which meaned the hemangioma was totally removed and no recurrence in 6 months follow-up, 51 cases with laser treatment were cured (50%), while in the plastic surgery operation group, the cure rate was 98.6% (68 cases). CONCLUSION Treatment with prednisone, laser or plastic surgery operation are all effective to body surface hemangioma and proper treatment method should be selected according to different period and different type of hemangioma to improve the therapeutic effectiveness.
Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical value of combined treatment for lung cancer with cerebral metastasis. Methods From May 1999 to May 2005, twentyone patients diagnosed lung cancer with cerebral metastasis received treatment in our hospital. The management consists of cerebral lesion resection, chemotherapy, lung cancer resection and chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Then evaluate the short-term and long-term outcome. Results No severe complications occurred in hospital. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 75.0%(12/16), 37.5%(6/16), and 12.5%(2/16) respectively. Life quality was promoted significantly. Conclusion Although lung cancer with cerebral metastasis is classified as stage Ⅳ,the effect of combined treatment is favorable because of the special metastatic position. But the choice of the patient is important.
Objective To provide a reliable experimental model for gastroesophageal reflux (GER) study. Methods Twenty Japan 5-month-old male rabbits wererandomly divided into two groups: group cardiomyotomy(n=10), group partial cardiomyectomy(n=10). The operations of cardiomyotomy and parital cardiomyectomy were performed in 2 groups respectively. All the animals underwent intraesophagealpH detection 1 week before operation and 4 weeks after operation. The mean changes of reflux ratios were compared between before operation and after operation.Results In gastroesophageal reflux ratio between before operation and after operation, there was no significant difference in group cardiomyotomy (1.98%±1.52% and 4.32%±2.39%, Pgt;0.05) and there was significant difference in group partialcardiomyectomy（1.56%±1.57% and 13.56%±3.27%, Plt;0.05）. Conclusion The reliable experimental model of GER can be made with procedure of partial cardiomyectomy. It can be used in estimating the operative procedure of antireflux and is conducive to dynamic observation and study of esophagitis.
ObjectiveTo compare solitary pulmonary nodule resection via thoracoscopic 3D mode or 2D mode and to further evaluate the clinical application value of thoracoscopic 3D mode. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 120 patients with solitary pulmonary nodule between March 2013 and March 2014 in the First Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University. The patients were allocated into two groups including a 3D-VATS group (50 patients) and a 2D-VATS group (70 patients). Pulmonary partial resection was performed firstly. Pulmonary lobectomy would be conducted or not on the basis of intra operative rapid pathological results. ResultsTwenty three patients were performed 3D-VATS in the 3D-VATS group. Twenty-nine patients were diagnosed as pathological malignancy underwent lobectomy plus partial dissection. There were statistical differences between the 3D-VATS group and the 2D-VATS group in operative time (t=1.967, P<0.05), intra operative blood loss (t=7.85, P<0.05), drainage volume 24 h after operation (t=6.18, P<0.05), postoperative chest tube retention time (t=7.1, P<0.05), and postoperative hospital stay (t=2.35, P<0.05). Following-up time in the 3D-VATS group was 6.3 (2-12) months. Complications occurred in 3 patients, including 2 patients with postoperative pneumonia and 1 patient with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in the 3D-VATS group. The following-up time in the 2D-VATS group was 8.2 (2-15) months. Complications occurred in 4 patients, including 1 patient with chylous hydrothorax, 2 patients with pneumothorax, 1 patient with delayed pulling up the chest closed drainage in the 2D-VATS group. The patients in both groups with complications were cured by appropriate treatment. Conclusion3D-VAST for SPN is a new operation mode choice. It is safe and feasible with low incidence of postoperative complications. Surgery vision, stereo feeling, the operation of adaptation, and postoperative recovery have certain advantages. It is worthy popularizing.
